Manifesto


THE RESISTANCE STARTS HERE!

ITS ABOUT THE RETURN OF ROCK AND ROLLS

SONGS ABOUT SOMETHING – New songs great songs your songsS REAL SONGS
Not manufactured pap that�s more soap popera than it�s ELVISS
BY-THE-PEOPLE-OF-THE-PEOPLE-FOR-THE-PEOPLE-ROCK-AND-ROLL

It�s about the music not the marketplace
no accountants. no marketing men .no stylists .no lawyers. no a+r .
JUST a simple truth: friends and brothers and sisters doing it for the right
reasons
honest unspoiled beautiful genuine SONGS played with PASSION!
PROPER GUITARS! GREAT VOICES! REAL BANDS!

AND it�s 100% INDEPENDENT

it�s about offering an alternative that�s not part of the Oalternative�
industry…
we�re taking sides… keeping the promise… yeah just when you thought
music didn�t matter anymore…
YES the resistance rocks…
Sand truth is absolute

TABLOIDS – and so the poor unsuspecting PUBLIC � sell POP AS a COMMODITY –
THEY DON�T WANT US.
WOO HOO!!!WE�RE LUCKY. WE CAN DO OUR STUFF WITHOUT all the bullshit, JUST
LIKE WE ALWAYS DREAMED

we are the underground now
the true undergroundS

and we don’t expect everyone to like what we do – that’s not the point of
the resistance:
in fact one thing we 3 have in common is we’ve never done things for easy
approval –
we do things because we like things,or BECAUSE IT�S RIGHT!.
It s NOT nostalgiadesperationconvenientrevival – IT�S LIFE! Ongoing glorious
hardandsoft LIFE!!!
FOR ALL THE PEOPLE WHO THE OBIZ� IGNORES RIGHT NOW

THE REVOLUTION STARTS TODAY!

EVERYONE�S BEEN SUCKERED IN TO THEIR WAY OF THINKING, OF JUDGING SUCCESS BY
SALES,
BY MEDIA INTEREST/COVERAGE – THAT�S COMMERCE AND THAT�S BOLLOCKS!

YOU DON�T HAVE TO BE UNIVERSALLY LOVED TO COUNT,
ESPECIALLY IN THESE SAD POP IDOL/OHELLO�/BIG BROTHER SUCKING TIMES
AND WE�RE STANDING UP TO COUNT AND BE COUNTED

WHO CHECKS A BIRTH CERTIFICATE WHEN THEY GO TO BUY A RECORD? YOU DESERVE
HEARSAY!

we’re not pretending to be kids or trying to recapture our youth –
we’re grown men doing what we always tried to do –
reflecting our lives and the lives and experiences of our peers through rock
and roll

IF THAT�S AN ISSUE STICK TO OSTEPS� STOOPID!
AND TELL DYLAN AND STRUMMER ON YOUR WAY OUT.
IT�S ALL PREJUDICES

YES.
WE�RE THE UNDERGROUND NOWS

I still believe in the power of songs…
I still believe in the power of soul….
I still believe in the power of love…
I STILL BELIEVE in ROCK AND ROLL

THE RESISTANCE STARTS HERE!
