One Conversation From The End Of The World

Luke Griffiths, Nishant Joshi
KILL, THE ICON! are a protest punk duo from London. The anti-fascism and anti-racism movements are at the heart of their songs. They use cultural iconography as a conduit through which to process punk ideals.
Bourdain (mastered)
Dismantle your ideology, or we'll do it for you. Riffs, riffs, and more riffs. Anti-fascist protest punk duo that gets straight to the point. "KILL, THE ICON!" is an exploration of cultural icons and iconoclasts, viewed through the lens of pop culture. "Buddhist Monk" is an exploration of the self-immolation of Thich Quang Duc. Modern protests are often performative and derived for the aim of social clout. This song aims to tell the story of a protestor who put it all on the line. "Bourdain" rolls out the mission statement for KILL, THE ICON! - a short, sharp burst of drums and riffs. Tasting notes: Death From Above 1979, Protomartyr, Royal Blood, Soundtrack to the movie 'TRON'.

8: How Fascist Are We?
We devise a mathematical answer to the question: "Is Boris Johnson a fascist?" How close are we to witnessing the terrorism that we saw in The US Capitol? Also, why and how to counter vaccine disinformation. And lots of other trashy opinions. Please do not proceed further if you are of a delicate disposition. This gets spicy.
