See, I seek out political stuff, and I think that it's beautiful when artists start to actually care and get people who listen to them to care, too. I see it as a highly positive thing.
And the politicality of it isn't an entirely new thing. As I said, Maria, Minority, Road to Acceptance, etc.
It's also just pure rock 'n' roll and it's the sort of thing you think of when you think of a rock 'n' roll band, but at the same time it's hard and agressive.
The fact that it's a concept album of course requires that it have a certain amount of congruity in the sound of it, so it isn't completely all over the place. I think they pulled that off very well.
