It’s been a while but here’s a brand new Citizen Bones track for you! Citizen Bones is Mahala’s in house musical project. In collaboration with Rambling Jay Bones, we’re producing original protest music about issues that matter instead of the pop schlock loop of love, sex and party ditties that afflict us on the radio. Here the Citizen takes on mega shopping malls and the capitalist commodification of just about everything.

Here’s the latest Citizen Bones track, this one inspired by leaders like Julius Malema. “Are the lures of the luxury lifestyle, interfering with your Communist ideals?” Asks Bones. “Would Karl Marx approve of that platinum credit card and all those Dubai shopping trips?” Remember Citizen Bones is watching. He is among us. He is one of us.

Seriously, not that long ago musicians would write songs about almost anything that interested them. They sang truth to power. They voiced the outrage of their generation.]]> http://www.mahala.co.za/culture/citizen-bones/feed/ 7
