THE PROTESTERS – SOUL OF THE NATION

Welcome to the slow relaxing beats of The Protesters. Juxtaposed with the confrontational cover art and the softly grating lyrics; this smooth band choose clarity over frenetic intensity. Their new album, Soul of the Nation, allows the listener to actually hear the weighty message of the words – without having to wade through the music with fiercely covered ears.

Whether the listener comes to the sounds for their beliefs in fairness and equality or whether they think that everything goes better with saxophones, they have the opportunity of filling their soul with what they need to hear. (SP)
