The King Blues are breaking up. There are rumors of strife within the band. This CD will apparently be their last hurrah. Personally, I’m bummed. We need more bands out there protesting the fact that the wealth of the entire developed world is being concentrated on the top 1% and turning all developed countries into some sort of fascist neo-feudalism. I hope the members find some way to continue their political activism. (Below is an email from the band.)
Hi guys, the final chapter of The King Blues is nearly upon us… The support we have received and the anticipation surrounding “Long Live The Struggle” has been truly overwhelming… we would personally like to thank each and every one of our fans throughout this amazing journey, we couldn’t have done it without you guys.
