biographical info

We are amongst a growing number of people who are using the traditional forms of art to chronicle the struggle that is life for the majority of the population. From Picasso to Joe Hill, art has been at the center of a people’s awareness of their struggle. Far from being the source of class-consciousness, it acts rather as a point of inspiration and fuel for the coming revolution. We are not so bold as to suggest that we are by any means unique in this understanding or that we represent something new. No. We represent the oldest ideas in human history – the concepts of community and freedom. We are amongst many that share these same ideals. We just want to rock out and have it mean something. The revolution is not rock, but rock can be revolutionary.
