  • Description

    Mercury Music Award nominated for their last album, the magnificent work of art that is Dangerous Minds, The Media Whores release this phenomenal compilation as a precursor to their fourth long-player coming later in the year. A look at the album cover and track listing tells you a lot about the band and their stance on a variety of subjects. The cover represents a wall covered in graffiti and posters. One poster bearing the legend "Stop Making Stupid People Famous" a salient comment on today's society and the surfeit of talentless vacuous celebrities (using the word loosely) who are only famous for being famous. The many spray-painted slogans, "I Hate Nazis", "Tories Out" & "Dump Trump" speak for themselves. Add to that the famed slogan Woody Guthrie had on his guitar, "This Machine Kills Fascists", and a quote from Guthrie influenced punk warlord Joe Strummer "The Future is Unwritten" and you get the picture. This cover continues the theme of wearing their causes on their sleeves, with previous album featuring images of the many "Dangerous Minds" reflected in the album title.
