Watch: Conor Oberst's Desaparecidos perform new tracks live on U.S TV

On his rather foul-mouthed and angsty album-closing track ‘Let’s Not Shit Ourselves’ from back in 2002, Bright Eyes’ Conor Oberst delivers the line “Well, ABC, NBC, CBS, bullshit. They give us fact or fiction? I guess an even split” And we should probably guess that the singer’s calmed in his opposition to U.S TV stations, as he appeared on Last Call With Carson Daly earlier this week.
Back with the equally angry Omaha post-hardcore outfit Desaparecidos, Oberst is on politically-charged form once again – delivering blistering renditions of new tracks ‘MariKKKopa’ and ‘Backsell’.
