With its member's cultural roots anchored in the rustbelt traditions of cold gray skies, unemployment, and a collective sense of loss,
PARSLEY FLAKES' dance-able sound may come off as a stark contrast to their surroundings. Peel back their songs, however, and they reveal heartfelt lyrics reflective of their deadened cultural environment.
PARSLEY FLAKES is a three-piece synth punk band based in Chicago, whose music has been likened to bands such as DEVO, CRASS, and the B-52s. Formed in 2005, PARSLEY FLAKES has spent time doing things as DIY as you can get: touring basements across the US in small automobiles, changing thrift-store shirts into merchandise, and self-recording any and every song they've ever played. Fun yet subversive, this band is like going to a party with the pissed off kids next door.
Affecting CHANGE can be a daunting task. Affecting GLOBAL change? Try HERCULEAN. Still, with an issue as big as GLOBAL WARMING, it's going to take an equally enormous effort to make change. One organization is doing just that. It's 350.ORG, the international CLIMATE CHANGE campaign. Partnering with individuals and groups around the world, 350.ORG is changing the way we look at our changing climate. Already, 350.ORG has impacted environmental legislation in America, inspiring politicians to cut carbon 80% by 2050. On October 24th, 2009, 350 goes worldwide.
In coordination with 350's international day of action, ADITA.ORG releases "C350: MUSIC FOR A MOVEMENT". This compilation consists of a wide variety of artists from around Chicago, the midwest, and beyond. "C350: MUSIC FOR A MOVEMENT" benefits 350.ORG, with promotion of the October 24th day of action, and monetarily with each sale. ADITA.ORG is the digital home of A DAY IN THE AIR, a personal zine written by Bradley Adita. "C350: MUSIC FOR A MOVEMENT" is A Day In The Air #24 and the 4th CD to be released since 2000. "Iowahardcore.com(pilation)" was released in 2003.
