Have You Paid Your Parking?

Wednesday, July 14th, 2010 by Citizen Bones

Download “Have You Paid Your Parking?” here.

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.

This song is free, gratis and mahala. Yours to download and keep forever.

    Yes, because in South Africa with our huge divded financial borders, writing protest music about paying your parking in shopping malls are one of those issues that matter.

    deep. moving. essential.

    Oh wait, i think you used the description already that works better: Pop schlock.

    How come this site attracts such bitchy comments? Jesus, it’s like the only people who air their “views” are frustrated intellectual hair dressers who wish they were really axe murderers.

    @haha
    Surely a song that talks about the relentless commodification of everything is protest music? true it’s got a narrow, suburban angle, but sometimes pointing out the innocuous mundane as part of the whole is both important and effective.
