New album on the way - with your help
Friday 16 July 2010 - 05:20:48
Sun Rise Above Every Day I wake Up On The Wrong Side Of Capitalism


It’s been seven years since the “Global Warning” sounded. Can anyone say things have improved?

Now more than ever there’s a need for a response to the continuing decline of human society.

This album will be but a part of that response; but it will be a part nonetheless.

In this epoch of decadence we are continually bombarded with praise of all the most dehumanizing and alienating aspects of our lives. The glorification of greed, individualism, chauvinism and bigotry is packaged and sold as entertainment.

Sun Rise Above screams out against all that is wrong with the world. Without your assistance his voice will go unheard. Every penny you give is greatly appreciated.

But this isn't charity. For your help in funding this album you will receive advanced copies of the album, downloads, posters, stickers, mention in the album liner, and more. What you receive depends on your level of contribution.

Don't wait for the dying record labels which are a part of this dying system to put out music like this. It's not going to happen.
