  • Rage Against The Machine’s Tom Morello On U.S. Midterm Results: “It Was A Repudiation Of All Of Trump’s Wannabe Nazi Bitches”

    Rage Against The Machine guitarist Tom Morello has commented on the results of the recent midterms in the U.S. Those elections saw Democrats dominating their Republican rivals and taking back control of the House and Senate. As Morello puts it, this “was a repudiation of all of Trump’s wannabe Nazi bitches.”

    Morello said the following:

    “[The November 3rd] election results were only the start. Sure, it was a repudiation of the ruling class, a repudiation of oligarchy, a repudiation of racism, a repudiation of ICE, a repudiation of wars overseas, a repudiation of our tax dollars being used to massacre children overseas rather than to serve our communities here. To serve our hospitals. To serve our schools. To serve our needy here.

    It was a repudiation of all of Trump’s wannabe Nazi bitches. It was a repudiation of Trumpism generally, and that’s all a good thing. But the real work starts now. Yes, the voting is done. But the day after the election it’s up to every one of us to continue to fight for the world we really want without compromise, without apology, and to not let those sons of bitches off the hook.

    Those that are in Washington, and on a daily basis, in our lives, in our schools, in our places of work; to continue to work and fight and organize for a more just, for a more peaceful, more equitable world. That is the job before us. Power to the people.”

  • The Funeral Portrait Premiere New Song “My Future Prediction”

    The Funeral Portrait have premiered a new song titled “My Future Prediction.” Singer Lee Jennings said the following about that track:

    “‘My Future Prediction’ is about convincing yourself that a relationship is perfect, even when every warning sign is telling you otherwise. It’s about ignoring the red flags, romanticizing the cracks, and building an entire future in your head with someone you already know, deep down, isn’t the one. Sometimes we fall in love with the life we imagined more than the person standing in front of us.”

  • Resolve Premiere “Mind Awake, Body Asleep” Video

    Resolve have premiered a new video for their new song “Mind Awake, Body Asleep.” This track is from the band’s new album, “Spread My Ashes Into Space,” which will be released on January 15.

    Vocalist Anthony Diliberto commented:

    “‘Mind Awake, Body Asleep’ is about sleep paralysis, something that has deeply affected my nights for several years. I experienced one particularly intense episode a few years ago, and while I’m now better at recognizing what is happening, the line between sleep paralysis, nightmares and reality can still become difficult to distinguish. I’ve also developed a reflex that wakes me up instantly just as I’m falling asleep, as well as a sense of paranoia that gradually sets in as the night goes on. Strangely, these episodes happen almost exclusively when I’m at home, and very rarely when I’m away or on tour.

    The lyrics also touch on the way sleep paralysis was interpreted in the past, long before the phenomenon could be explained medically. It’s a set of lyrics I’m particularly attached to. I feel like the song naturally evolves into something increasingly oppressive, and captures quite accurately what it feels like to be fully conscious while trapped inside your own body, at the mercy of what your mind is making you experience.

    The title is a reference to Mr. Robot, and more specifically to the idea of Elliot’s second personality taking over at night while he believes he is simply asleep.

    Ultimately, there is one question I like to leave unanswered: Is what we see in those moments actually real? We can explain the mechanisms behind sleep paralysis, but that doesn’t necessarily make the experience itself feel any less real. I like the idea that somewhere between sleep and wakefulness, there might be an invisible dimension that we are only able to access for a few brief moments.”
