Quite an awesome lineup on this one:

We the new banalists, have formed an orchestra to proclaim our manifesto.

TASTE IS A FORM OF PERSONAL CENSORSHIP.

DENY THE POLITICS OF ENVY

TECHNIQUE IS A REFUGE OF THE INSECURE

SHADOW WAR

The New Banalists Orchestra is

JOHN SINCLAIR

PENNY RIMBAUD

MARK STEWART

YOUTH

DAVID TIBET

ZODIAC YOUTH

Digital Download Album £4.99 available from 25th July.

…with contributions from Eve Libertine (ex-Crass), Keith Levine (PiL) and Howard Marks (‘Mr Nice’).  Music by Youth & Michael Rendall. Penny also guests on the title track featuring Mark Stewart.

I’m not normally one for overtly political releases like these, but this sounds like quite a sonically decent concept-piece, with an amazing collection of players. I’ll be getting my mits on this one asap!
