Belfast‘s notorious, politically and socially outspoken rap trio KNEECAP make headlines these days with being under attack by British justice, being banned at festivals, and with other related problems for their loud and clear, ongoing support for Palestine.
Some hypocritical Western governments act as if the
band is the problem, not Israel‘s demolition of Gaza.
I hope now that they won’t be attacked by some French art purists who could possibly
be offended by the band’s advertisement poster (on top) for a couple of upcoming gigs
in Paris.

Band: CREEPER
Who: Creepy, doom and gloom
eccentrics from the UK. They’re
active since 2014.
On October 25th they release their 4th LP,
called Sanguivore II: Mistress of Death.
I never heard of these horror punks before, but when I saw them on
the cover of the new Kerrang issue I couldn’t resist putting them here
on the blog.
They’re so cute, right?

Last Saturday I was at Pukkelpop Festival in Belgium.
I saw 8 bands/artists and all of them drew attention to the
still ongoing, horrific genocide in Gaza. Kudos to them.
One of them were the so-called controversial (when you condemn Israel out loud,
most hypocritical Western governments label you controversial) Irish rappers KNEECAP
who delivered a tempestuous set. At the end of the show, ‘Free Palestine‘ flickered on
the big screen behind them.
