Band: L.O.T.I.O.N. MULTINATIONAL CORPORATION Who: Blustery quartet who have been percolating in the NYC underground
for the past 10+ years, gaining notoriety for their unique brand of industrial
cyberpunk with intense live shows, fiercely political lyricism and striking visual
aesthetics.
It’s a loud and clear protest song, critising today’s autocratic America.
Boots On The Ground comes with a video clip created by MA & made with work by US photo artist thefinaleye. It shows the aftermath of the recent largest public protests in American history against “ICE raids, the militarisation of domestic forces, and state authoritarianism”.
The intro of the clip starts with the text “From the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis on May 5 2020, to recent ICE raids on migrant communities and the killing of civilians that protect them,” and moves on to, “From the brutal state repression of public protest, to the reality of American homelessness that includes nearly 33,000 military veterans” and ends by detailing those who have lost their lives to ICE and the impact of oppressive retaliation to protest.
