Purple Onion - David Makalaster II

from Primus Tracks · host Josh, Frankie, & Soya

David Makalaster II continues the saga of our newscaster, whose manipulative messaging has taken a turn to the bellicose. Mak II stands as commentary on the media landscape post 9/11 and its exhortations to belligerence, whether abroad or domestic, and the music supports that military march to war, which we connect to Les Claypool's favorite film, perhaps finding some of the musical inspiration for this track. Think. It ain't illegal yet. Get involved:InstagramFacebookEmailBurn your money Get involvedInstagramFacebookEmailBurn your money
