The Proletariat
- Soma Holiday
The Proletariat adequately fills the ideological gap left behind by the Gang of Four since that band has rejected their leftist values in order to wallow in the commercial quagmire. Combing brutally simple lyrics with music that resembles a stripped-down Killing Joke, these Boston natives have issued the most blatant political statements to come from that city since the Tea Party. It may even wake up from your own "soma holiday". ($6.00/$7.00 overseas postpaid from XXXXX)
