Motihari Brigade Release New Album “Power From Below”
Release Date: January 28, 2020
Motihari Brigade creates high-energy revolution rock as a beacon for those seeking their independent lost tribe. The new album Power From Below evokes the encouraging electric sound of “Bernie Sanders meets Helter Skelter.” They are a voice in the wilderness calling “We are on our own, but not alone” – words inscribed on the electric guitar from the album’s cover art.
Motihari Brigade provide an antidote to the official programming overwhelming our tele-screens. Their music is Rock-N-Roll thoughtcrime – inspired by George Orwell and the anti-fascist International Brigades from the Spanish Civil War.
“Turn off and tune out the machine” the title track Power From Below implores. Motihari Brigade are the soundtrack to the dystopian reality show we are all now busily sharing on our smart phones.
The song Talking To Crazy – also an animated cartoon video – highlights the band’s hopeful blend of humor and cynicism. The story’s heroes struggle against spiral-eyed zombies and demagogue politicians, urged on by the sounds of Motihari Brigade until they eventually find their tribe and each other.
The band’s first single “Power To The People”, a ska version cover of John Lennon’s 1971 anthem, is featured on the Spotify Playlist “Protest Songs – soundtrack of the revolution.”
U.K. born singer and lead guitar player Eric Winston wrote eight original songs from the album’s eleven tracks, while three covers are included as fresh homage to the revolution rock tradition.
The album is scheduled for release on January 28, 2020, and will be available through popular digital download and streaming services and on compact disk. (UPC Code 888295951548). Find your tribe at: mbrigade.com
