2020 is the Year of Hindsight.
The year that we are reminded to learn from the past, both recent and distant.
The title song of this EP is dedicated to leaning and taking actions as we enter one of the most important election years in American history. Will we repeat the mistakes of the past and allow dishonest corporations and billionaires and people that can be bought to continue the slide into fascism, bigotry, and accelerating income inequality, or will enough people learn from the past and not be swayed by the con artists in the Republican party, the wealthy neo-liberal DNC leadership, the billionaire run mainstream media whose predictions and polls all failed to predict the results of the last election and who have avoided giving fair coverage to the most popular candidates with the most individual donations and the largest turn outs.
Happy New Years Evil,
