After a long period of inactivity the announcements for this years’ Download festival are now being released. Read the rest of this entry »

Peace and Love would like to congratulate Jon and Tracy Morter for taking the fight for real music to Simon Cowell and the X Factor concept and winning. Respect is also due to everyone who signed up to the Facebook campaign and downloaded ‘Killing in the Name’, thus making it the first ever Xmas number one of a download only single. The single eventually outsold the X Factor winner Joe McElderry’s effort ‘The Climb’ by around 50000 copies. Fair play to Cowell, he took defeat with good grace which is more than Arsene Wenger would do. Rage against the Machine probably can’t quite take in what has happened over the past couple of weeks, they seem genuinely shocked by events, though they say they will soon play a free UK show to thank the fans for buying the single. We will keep you informed of these developments.

Peace and love would like to add their wholehearted support to the campaign to make that seminal classic ‘Killing in the name of’ by Rage Against the Machine the Christmas No 1.

You can hear a bit about it on Youtube, listen to the first and last bits if you’re in a hurry. It is rage we’re talking about so it’s NSFW.

Do what we tell you : buy it on Amazon or Itunes.
