The Radio Dept. release brand new song, download inside!
The Radio Dept. have never been shy about their political leanings. Their 2008 EP, Freddie & The Trojan Horse for example, was directed at Fredrik Reinfeldt, the Swedish Prime Minister and leader of the Moderate Party. In a TLOBF interview with The Radio Dept.’s Johan Duncanson back in June, the singer told us that the song was “kind of (a) fantasy about him showing up at one of our shows and not being critical at all but instead just embracing us, loving us, and how we would react to that”.
Today the band release ‘The New Improved Hypocrisy’, a song written especially for the Swedish general election this coming Sunday. The lyrics, speak a thousand words “who needs intergration, when we’ve got isolation” / “we don’t mind democracy, we have our ways around it”.
As can be expected from The Radio Dept., the quality hasn’t dipped one bit since this years incredible Clinging To A Scheme, in fact, alongside ‘the aforementioned ‘Freddie & The Trojan Horse’, ‘The New Improved Hypocrisy’ bookends the album perfectly.
