Synopsis
Album Description
Inspired by recent events and loosely a concept album, Epigene's second LP Popular Dissent is an attempt to reflect popular concerns by everyday people living in 21st century society. Issues such as empty consumerism (Generica), political leadership (New Voltaire), loneliness/infidelity (Sugarwater), war (Power & Glory) and spiritual/psychological angst (Inner Figure, New Bethany) are explored with a vulnerability and razor-sharp insight. Musically, Popular Dissent is more focused and aggressive than the bands debut, One Bright Sign and combines the propulsive rhythmic energy of post punk with adventurous, art-rock arrangements. The album has a similar feel to albums from UK bands such as: Manic Street Preachers, Pulp?s Different Class, Supergrass and Blur?s Parklife. It also sits well next to the political punk/pop of The Clash?s London Calling. Popular Dissent is a major musical statement and Epigene are poised to make a significant impact in 2004. Stay tuned!
