Billy Bragg

Mr. Love & Justice

2008-04-14

Billy Bragg’s first release on Epitaph’s sister label Anti-. The politically-charged Bragg takes emotion sparked by war, hate, and greed and turns out yet another thought-provoking, protest-singing powerful record. However, Bragg continues to also bring unity and hope for the future. A terrific and relevant record, hopefully the masses will take notice. Check out tracks 1 “I Keep Faith”, track 4 “The Beach Is Free”, track 5 “Sing Their Souls Back Home”, track 9 “If You Ever Leave”, and track 11 “The Johnny Carcinogenic Show”. - Lane Zoerhof
