Lots of rage and frustration has filled my heart over the past few weeks and the one song that is just on repeat in my head as I keep reading more and more ridiculously terrible stories of racial injustice, Preach on NOFX, preach on:

Just discovered Zamrock. Apparently, in the early-mid 70's, after Zambia gained its independence from Britain, the president ordered that 95% of songs played on the radio had to come from Zambia, so everyone rushed to make songs. What followed was some awesome fuzz/psych rock. The best of them was W.I.T.C.H. (We Intend To Cause Havoc!). Badass name for a badass band. Anyways, here they are. Sad story to end it, as all the members except the lead singer died of AIDS (he's still touring), but good to remember them by their music.

Was not aware of this music.  Thanks for sharing.  Sound reminds me a bit of Canned Heat for some reason.

Yup. It's pretty good stuff. Here's another one by Blackfoot (no, not that one):

 

 

Not as fuzzy, but still badass.
