JOIN THE R/EVOLUTION
by Sean Brennan of London After Midnight, written as a video introduction for live concerts
We are living in a time of great despair. Our governments are run by the corrupt
and by corporations whose goal is to keep us ignorant and apathetic. Our media is
controlled by these entities with profit driven agendas. These agendas run contrary
to our best interests.
Vast numbers of people live in great poverty while the privileged few manipulate
world events and use the poor for their own gain, destroying our planet and our
future in the process. Media sells you what they want you to consume and oppresses
all opposition - and oppresses the truth. A handful of large mega-corporations own
most news and media outlets, limiting our choices and suffocating free speech. We
are being manipulated and lied to.
We are sold images of life that prop up dysfunctional societal concepts and only feed the
wallets of the power hungry elite. Many of our elected officials are ineffective and many
of us do not even care. Vast numbers of people eligible to vote do not vote. Many choose to
remain ignorant rather than face the truth about the world they inhabit, which prevents
them from effecting change.
We are living in a pre-fascist state and many people welcome this New World Order,
having been brainwashed to worship self, ignorance, and vanity rather than the pursuit
of truth, compassion and evolution. We are sheep being led to the slaughter and many are
willfully ignorant of their procession.
Do you want to be told who you should hate, who you can love, what is truth and what
to think? Do you want others to make your decisions or would you like to shape the
world you live in? We have power.
We are headed down a dark path and salvation seems hopeless. We will be doomed unless
we, the people, join together and take control, beat down our oppressors, make our voices
heard and base our existence on the concepts of freedom, intellectual enlightenment and
evolution.
So comrades, now is the time to overthrow our fascist leaders. This is our last chance
to change the world for the better. You can make a difference if you try. If the people unite,
the Fascist Power Elite will be faced with overwhelming opposition and will be forced from
their self appointed thrones.
You are the r/evolution.
A message from Sean Brennan on being vegan:
I have been a vegan for most of my life for a variety of reasons, all of which are valid and should convince any rational person to also switch to a vegan diet. But sometimes people don't want to hear the scientific, environmental or humanitarian reasons why a vegan diet is actually essential for the planet and themselves (not to mention the animals). So opening those people's eyes to the basic reality and horror of the meat industry is the only course of action, as most people are ignorant of this aspect, or chose to ignore it- and allow themselves to be blinded by the multi-billion dollar meat industry that makes money off hiding this reality from you.
Anyone who eats meat or consumes dairy products must watch this video. If you do not watch this video yet continue eating meat, then you are no better than a person who, for example, votes for George Bush (or supports another horrible person/institution/practice) without knowing or ignoring the facts- in other words someone who simply refuses to investigate the ramifications of their actions. I may sound harsh, but think about it logically and you'll see it's the truth.
People who consume animal products (or make decisions on politics, etc) without knowing the facts, without being informed, are fully responsible for the consequences of those actions, even the negative ones.
For the sake of illustration, since up to one million innocent Iraqis have been killed in Iraq since the Republican sponsored war began, who do we blame if not the people who handed Bush power and cheered on his bogus war?
If people support the meat industry, they support brutal, harmful, wasteful and unnecessary cruelty towards animals and towards poor people in developing countries, as well. When farming meat, we waste irreplaceable natural resources that could be used to feed starving nations (up to 30,000 people die EVERY day due to starvation-related disease). So when you consume meat or dairy products, you support this horror, just like when people support Republican policy they support corruption, war, racism and brutality. Knowledge is power. All I'm asking you to do is think.
I am not judging anyone, I am simply asking you to KNOW what the meat/dairy industry is all about before you support it. Watch this short video or admit that you just do not care about the suffering and damage your luxuries cause. Thanks for listening.

LAM BIOGRAPHY:
London After Midnight (LAM) was formed in the 1990s by Sean Brennan. Unlike most music projects, LAM has retained and nurtured the political and socially aware element of the later punk scene that virtually vanished from music in the early 90s, and has developed as a deep, passionate and political dark rock music entity. Live members vary but include Sean Brennan, Randy Mathias, Pete Pace and Matthew Setzer. LAM has gained a large and loyal following all over the world, from the USA, Europe, Latin America, Russia (where LAM has toured extensively), and beyond, to Japan, China and elsewhere (appearing in major press and securing distribution deals with record labels).
London After Midnight has headlined and co-headlined concerts and major festivals with bands like The Cure, Green Day, HIM (HIM often cites LAM as a favorite artist), and countless other major artists. LAM has performed to crowds of over 30,000 people as headliner or co-headliner on major music festivals around the world. Still, London After Midnight maintains a strong underground and independent "personality" despite being a top seller (charting in the top 10 and top 20 of the European DAC and alternative charts with each of 4 CDs released) and a major draw at music festivals year after year.
Songwriter, instrumentalist, producer and founder Sean Brennan is known for his strong stances in favor of animal rights, pro-environmental and human rights issues, anti-corporate control of media, and progressive/liberal politics. Whatever the approach or subject matter, the music of London After Midnight is deeply touching, powerful, socially aware, romantic, emotional, haunting, moving, and even exhibits a morbid wit with its sarcasm and sardonic humor (listen to the tongue-in-cheek "Your Best Nightmare" and try not to think of an Edward Gorey story).
LAM is all this, having a very well defined personality while at the same time appealing to a wide variety of people. There really is no classification that fits London After Midnight (despite LAM's "dark" image) because the music is so varied and the lyrical content (and even LAM's personality and causes) are uncommon in todays music scene, often breaking boundaries - much to the outrage of people who live and die by genre labels. Sean Brennan shuns all labels (as any artist worth their salt will do) and the music he creates can really only be classified as "London After Midnight".
The ground-breaking new London After Midnight CD 'Violent Acts of Beauty' has been released in Europe and the USA (Trisol Music Group Germany, Metropolis Records USA) and in Russia (Iron D Records). The new CD has received critical acclaim with Germany's top music magazine, Orkus, proclaiming "Violent Acts of Beauty is a masterpiece of sound and lyric".
