Active Minds - Things that cannot be unseen LP

As the title suggests, the latest album from Active Minds lays bare some of the unpalatable truths that have been revealed in the last few years. They use a range of melodic hardcore, d-beat and outright thrash alongside moody and folk influenced songs to speak truth to power. Powerful words and powerful tunes says Nathan Brown.
When it comes to DIY punk, the credentials of Active Minds are hard to beat. They established their own label, Loony Tunes, back in the 1980s, releasing their own music and plenty of other bands. The Dixon brothers have distributed huge amounts of DIY punk records from across the globe since that time, furnishing people with many gems. They’ve toured Europe countless times. Their dogged commitment to animal liberation, environmental awareness and alternative economics, politics, and anti-capitalism have always been at the forefront of their music.
In this album, like all Active Minds’ releases, the booklet takes each song as a starting point and embellishes the central argument with additional facts or context. The message really is the driver for what Active Minds do. The song titles leave very little to the imagination. Active Minds don’t leave you to “interpret” mysterious coded messages. They tell it like it is.
