Free Music Review: Easterhouse: System's A Bitch, With Whores for its Lovers
Hit: 5 Stars

This is such a brilliant album I almost cried when I heard Waiting for the Redbird, the follow-up album by the rump left by the Perry brother's split in the ranks of Easterhouse. It is a beautiful blending of unyielding revolutionary sentiments, artful songwriting, competent guitar work and vocals, and the kind of red, raw anger and dark, black despair (peeking out from behind a noble effort at hopefulness) that doesn't even consider giving quarter. For the (perhaps) handful of us who are drawn to the rock medium for our propaganda efforts and wouldn't give the bourgoisie so much as a pleasant nod of the head if they paid us, who might have thought we'd exhausted our lifelong opportunities to see the two joined together effectively when punk rock died in 1980, this is a near perfect album. Perhaps only Phil Ochs "The Ringing of Revolution" can hope to beat out Easterhouse's lyrics: "Where is the man who's speaking out for me? Community leaders want more black shopkeepers, the union's a say in the jobs sold away, and I'm told that my homes in a nuclear free zone, but that ain't much help when there's bills to be paid. Police accountability, non-nuclear war strategies have made the fight a mockery." This album would be worth several times over its cost, just to play that at full volume at some Kerry-supporting liberal Leftist poser!
