"Here most people want to be free...," Rene Perez said in the West Bank city [of Bethlehem], the traditional birthplace of Jesus. "It would be good to start building bridges...." Perez said he chose to come to the Palestinian territories to shoot the majority of the band's latest video, "Multi Viral." He said the song is about manipulation of the media and how it distorts information. He said he worked on the song with Tom Morello, a former guitarist with Rage Against the Machine, and Wikileaks founder Julian Assange." -

"We live in the world that your propaganda made, but where you think you are strong, you are weak. Your lies tell us the truth we will use against you. Your secrecy shows us where we will strike. Your weapons reveal your fear for all to see. From Cairo to Quito, a new order is forming. The power of people armed with the truth." - Julian Assange in "Multi_Viral"
"MULTI_VIRAL" Is The First Advance Single And Title Track
From Calle 13's Highly-Anticipated Fifth Album Set For Release In March of 2014.
