Op-Critical is a band speaking truth to power through the media of music and imagery.
The band represents all the citizens of the world who oppose violence......
We also represent people who oppose governments that do not protect the fundamental rights of human beings. People everywhere are rejecting fear as a tool of control, as well as gratuitous attacks on innocents. They are speaking out against terrorists who use violence, and against democratic governments that become the mirror image of the terrorists they are fighting.
AUDIO MASTERING: MASTERED IN NEW YORK CITY BY EDWARD VINATEA
OP-CRITICAL
WANTS TO CHANGE THE WORLD!
Remake of Alvin Lee's great song, "Change The World" (license on file). Ten Years After put out this song in 1971, and this is a remake with updated lyrics and a fresh sound. It also has a second lead solo that wasn't in the original version. We hope to inspire people to volunteer and act, and to Change The World through individual acts. In the video we show several organizations you can join to help Change The World! Please visit our website, register, vote, and don't forget to check out President Obama's service website: www.usaservice.org

HAPPY SPRINGTIME - BUSH IS OVER!
We re-mastered the video we made two years ago of the remake of the John Lennon song, "Happy Xmas, War is Over" into widescreen HD format; in honor of the Bush Era finally being over, and to celebrate the inauguration of President Barack Obama!
NEW VIDEO!
FEAR NOT
The Bush administration used fear, but America chose hope over fear. This video hopes to inspire more people to reject the politics of fear and embrace the future of hope.
