Cela me brise le cœur de voir des enfants se faire tuer à Gaza et dans d'autres pays déchirés par la guerre. J'ai écrit He Soldat avec le cœur lourd, en partageant ce sentiment avec Roger Waters et d'autres musiciens qui refusent de rester les bras croisés face à la situation à Gaza.
Cela me brise le cœur de voir à quel point la société dans son ensemble ignore le sort de ces enfants en raison de leur origine ethnique ou de leur éloignement de notre quotidien.
It breaks my heart how children are being killed in Gaza and other war-torn countries. I wrote ‘Hey Soldier’ from a place of heartache, shared with Roger Waters and other musicians who refuse to stand by and do nothing about Gaza.
It breaks my heart how society at large ignores the plight of these kids because of their ethnicity or how distant they are from our day-to-day lives.
Deliberately killing children is an act of evil wherever and however it happens and we should care.
All actions have consequences and the act of keeping silent is no exception.
Keeping silent about social and environmental injustice is a choice you make. Beware.
Silence is not passive.
Silence is not neutral.
Silence is a weapon.
By choosing to keep silent you are wielding a weapon for unhealthy
forces whose agenda is the opposite of love and compassion.
An introspective and emotionally charged track that explores love, loss, and the painful realisation of missed opportunities. Known for our raw, uncompromising energy, we are stepping into new sonic territory with Falling, blending alternative rock with melodic, heartfelt storytelling.
This song is about Leonard Cohen's struggles and eventual reconciliation with faith as he faces death. In the song, he doesn't really doubt that God exists. Rather, he struggles with doubt that God is good. It’s solemn and chilling and the moment I heard it I knew I would do a cover one day.
Watch our video to find out some truth about God, Jesus and Mary and the lies we are fed from the Vatican.
The Doomsday Clock, which has been ticking for 77 years, attempts to gauge how close humanity is to destroying the world. The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, which created the clock in 1947 says that Midnight represents the moment at which humans will have made Earth uninhabitable. Recently the clock was set at 90 seconds to midnight – the closest to the hour it has ever been.
Driven by selfish uncaring acts of humankind, planet Earth is at the start of a Sixth Mass Extinction. Overpopulation, pollution and deforestation are accelerating natural climate change, causing soil erosion, poisoning the air we breathe and making ever more scarce natural sources of water undrinkable.
I was recently invited to talk on Profiles in Music, with Sean St. Heart
Can music amplify the reach and impact of a social movement?
Many people in England bravely died fighting for the Magna Carta and the Declaration of Independence. Sadly, drip by drip, the very freedoms and rights our ancestors fought for have been eroded.
Our governments now answer to dark masters, not us, the people.
It is time for the peoples of England to rediscover our fighting spirit and WakeUp!
Many people in America bravely died fighting for the Magna Carta and the Declaration of Independence. Sadly, drip by drip, the very freedoms and rights our ancestors fought for have been eroded.
Our governments now answer to dark masters, not us, the people.
It is time for the peoples of America to rediscover our fighting spirit and WakeUp!
We recently played this great gig at L’Engrenage in Toulouse, one of our favourite bars – check it out if you get a chance.
This song is about waking people up to the efforts of Gates and Co. to turn us into androids and the importance of love and being human. If we don't resist, this could be the end of the human race.
This is a song about people toeing the line and risking serious damage to their health, sometimes with devastating consequences.
This song is about a guy I observed at Bristol train station, a ticket clerk who lost his job to a machine.
“Tear down these walls dividing us all as one people. No Religion no State sowing dark seeds of hate among people. Break out a Black Flag.”
It’s time to take back power we have surrendered to 'governments' who have ceased to make decisions in our best interests.
It’s 1979, The Pretenders have just released Brass in Pocket and I'm totally in love with Chrissie Hynde.
“This song has been an amazing journey for me.”
