The 'Empire' strikes back
The Lester Bangs-celebrated British band The Mekons will be performing as a full group (a rarity these days) at the Bowery Ballroom on July 21. And look for the documentary "Revenge of the Mekons" coming soon too.
Here is the band with "Empire of the Senseless" from 1989.

The greatest band in all the land. Do not, do not, do not miss a Mekons show!
Thanks for that link 8:43!
That right there is the single most lyrically brilliant song I think I've ever heard. Long live the Mekons.
