Cabbage do things their own way.
The band hit London last night (November 24th) playing an epic show at The Great Escape's First Fifty event.
Refusing to let the momentum die down, Cabbage have now shared their third EP in as many months.
'Terrorist Synthesizer' is out now on Skeleton Key, and it's a vital, visceral piece of work. Sayeth the band:
Exhibit C. The final piece, we Cabbage, an audio organisation, will deliver in our introduction and evidence based protest EPs. This work and statement we find the most damning. Terrorist Synthesizer was created in our indignant dissent earlier this year when the UK voted to bomb Syria. What made this decision all the worse was then leader of the time (the bloke who wanks over animal farm) called the good people of our nation sympathisers of terror. Nuclear weapons create nuclear music. Injustice creates opposing attacks and this is our contribution to the ever-growing class divide and destabilisation of the earth. We want to break out of the algorithm, and tell ourselves and others, you're worth it. Because you are worth it. A message of hope comes dearly in the hands of a fragile, misconstrued, confused, socially unjust world. Raise a glass of whatever your poison might be and join us in a life long musical protest. The working mans hands are burnt and lied to. Use them to fight back and celebrate victory.
Tune in now.
