Transcript from an Interview with OctoberFamine.
Began in 2007 and moving forward...
Dark Earth Dream Music, bellowing out sighs and whispers in the dark forests of the world, echoing lost dreams caught in the shadows of branches and across empty fields and through the silent ghosts in each of our souls...
An animal friendly, anti-racist, pro-gay, nature-loving, anti-war, feminist, socialist bunch of freaks looking to change the world one person at a time. In the political spirit of bands like Crass & MDC. ln the musical vein of bands like the Swans & Joy Division. We strive to reach into all areas of struggle to help those who suffer and to tell their stories to the world. Those who are neglected. Those who are abused. Those who are poor. Those who are hungry. Those who are beaten because of their race, their sexuality or their species. Makes no difference who you are. Suffering is universal. Join the frightened world. We are all in need of freedom!
