Komrads,
In preparation for this Saturday's release of The Red Menace, The KDPC has leaked this video for "Danse les belles filles communistes," featuring several of Soviet Russia's most beautiful and talented dancing ladies.
In other news, both Pathological Lovers and Gramercy Riffs have agreed to join The Kremlin for our special release day. And don't forget, for the first time ever The Kremlin will play for the young communists of St. John's--the All Ages show, featuring Pathological Lovers and an act TBA, begins at the Rock House at 3pm sharp.
Enjoy the video Komrads, and practice these moves for Saturday, we'll be watching.

Influences
Karl Marx; Mikhail Bakunin; The USSR; the ovewhelming urge to unchain the masses from the tyrannous binds of neoconservative consumer capitalism; the spectre of communism that haunts the bourgeois complacency of this nation; long walks on the beaches of the Caspian Sea; the sad eyes of peasants labouring in fallow fields; the proletarian class whose industrious labour continues to line the pockets of exploitative capitalist fat cats the world over; Comrade Lenin's small army of communist cats; Comrade Trotsky in exile, Comrade Nikolai Vavilov's virtuoso vaccuum playing; the beauty and warmth of revolutionary women; The proletariat serf. Cosmonaut Colin's ingenious development of a new form of frenetic revolutionary dance; the go-go dancer strike force and their undying commitment to the revolution; the red light that is cast on st. john's each morning by the sunrise; the proletariat serf.

The Kremlin: A Manifesto
The Kremlin believes that it is crucial to emphasize the relevance of artistic dissent for the concrete political struggle of today. no longer is it enough to sit idly by, proselytizing passive presuppositions about freedom and community, Nor is it acceptable to imitate cultural revolution in art forms that have long been absorbed as bourgeois commodities. The time is now for a cultural revolution grounded in a radical art that can break the bonds of a consensus culture that has long held us shackled in cells of capitalist mediocrity. those who wait for the objective conditions of revolution to arrive are the main obstacle to the revolution. if we do not act now, we will be waiting for ever. Join us in solidarity, Komrades: unite in dance for the sovereignty of the common person.
In an epoch when the calls to action of progressive leftist movements have been muted by factions of neoliberal globalization, the kremlin feels compelled to reinvent the basic coordinates of revolutionary experience. We are not advocates of the bureaucratic communism of soviet russia. Rather, we see homologies between our contemporary political scenario and that of Lenin’s in 1917. The lenin we look to is the lenin who emerged from a constellation of political despotism with a marxism capable of shattering, then rebuilding, the political landscape. It is from this lenin that we draw inspiration: in his spirit we declare revolution on a debilitating capitalist ideology that has placed a prohibition on sovereign thought and creation for far too long.
After the Hungarian rebellion of 1956 was crushed by Russian tanks, the political thinker Georg Lukacs was taken prisoner. When asked by a KGB officer if he was carrying a weapon, Lukacs reached into his pocket and handed over his pen. The spirit of this gesture contains the blueprint for The Kremlin’s revolutionary design. Komrades, let us use our radical art and our creative imaginations to overthrow the oppressive ennui of bourgeois consensus capitalism. In the words of Komrade Trotsky, “True art is unable not to be revolutionary.” The Kremlin is a catalyst, an iskra aimed at awakening individuals to the immense potential for revolutionary change contained within the engaged creative spirit.
