The Kerrang! staff’s top albums of 2024
You’ve seen the Kerrang! albums of 2024. Now check out what the staff were all listening to this year…
Kid Kapichi and Bob Vylan target “the blindly patriotic, grabs them by the shoulders, shakes them and shouts ‘wake up’” on the vital New England.
Kid Kapichi have just shared a brand-new and important single featuring Bob Vylan, New England.
Discussing the song and its scathing message, vocalist/guitarist Jack Wilson shares: "New England is a song that targets the blindly patriotic, grabs them by the shoulders, shakes them and shouts ‘wake up’. We’re living in scary times where the top of society have found a way to turn the working class against themselves. We become more confident in our xenophobia as it’s only reinforced by our government on a daily basis.
"We’ve been mugged off and sold a lie time and time again and the scary thing is people seem to still be making the same mistakes. Maybe out of pure ignorance or maybe in a stubborn act of defiance. Either way it’s hard to watch."
