The Ghetto Blaster EP

CD Description Street Sweeper Social Club, the band comprised of Tom Morello (Rage Against The Machine/Audioslave/The Nightwatchman) and Boots Riley (The Coup), return with The Ghetto Blaster, out on 9th August on SSSC/ILG. It's the follow-up to their 2009 critically acclaimed, self-titled debut. Tom Morello on the new release "we were shooting for a combo of the first Clash record and the Ohio Players greatest hits, interwoven with tractor trailer size riffs of course. This record definitely has more of a 'band' feel than the first, and Boots lyrics and delivery have never been sharper." Boots Riley on the Ghettoblaster: "is much more raw, rough, and rugged. We did it in a little studio and got a big sound. We had overflowing, musically violent and beautiful energy in that room - five dudes sweating and bouncing off the walls, and we captured it in the recording. Because of us touring together for the past year, it's a more organic meld of our styles and personalities. The music Tom wrote for this EP will make you go nuts. The covers we did are done with love and our own swagger. I like it better than our last album." The M.I.A. cover quickly became a fan favourite when they were on the road with Nine Inch Nails and Jane's Addiction
