From Fuguers Cove PERFORMS the Marshmen's Capitalism is a Virus (2021)

Have you heard of the Marshmen?

They're a fictional quartet of beer swilling, hockey playing Marxist-Leninists from Horicon, Wisconsin who've put together a rather terrific garage band.

This is #3 in the fuguers cove PERFORMS series, following fuguers cove PERFORMS The Marshmen's "Get Slant, Fucker," which came out in 2018, and fuguers cover PERFORMS The Burning Silo's Thrash Wizzaards, with will be out in Summer 2020.

The Marshmen's second record -- "Capitalism is a Virus" -- as performed by J. Bendell (aka fuguers cove) during THE QUARANTINE-- is the first fuguers cove album written & recorded during a Pandemic. Get ready to punch Nazis behind the House of Pizza.

Here's a breakdown of the songs by the guy (me) who wrote them:

1. Valley of Bones -- A man in Horizon nostalgizes about the Red Army, remembers all the friends he lost, celebrates the Nazi defeat in WWII, and reminds that the communist cause is not yet dead & that the Red Army may rise once again

2. Blood on the Plow -- I steal a line from JCM to encourage folks to take to the streets and make the change they want to see in the world.

3. Hockey Fight -- A bunch of alt right punks promoting fascism get the shit beat of of them behind the Festival Grocery by a bunch of anti-fascists who are disappointed that Hockey Night is cancelled due to #coronavirus

4. Pond Muck -- Proselytizing about the anti-human nature of capitalism and how it wears us down. Also: the importance of Kropotkinist mutual aid as our ticket out of a system of "injustice & greed." Also: insulting fascists.

5. No lyrics. Just a quick song for the kids to mosh and pogo

6. Isolation -- #coronavirus + the problems with toxic internet culture + utilizing the internet to promote radical and progressive social change + the importance of reading Frantz Fanon

lyrics

Raise your flag
Feed your fear
There's only us
There's only us you know the time is near

Our time is short
The time is now
Riot streets
And blood upon the plow

You can't expect the world to change us now
You can't expect to change the world without

Released April 1, 2020
