Mediatic Slaves is a band that you shall not include in the category they' re in.
If you think that Punk is a musical art form, an attitude, not a particular style of music.you will love these guys!
When Punk mainly became a form of expression for jocks to talk about beer and football, these guys come along talking about the streets, non-identification, boredom and pressure from day by day life.
Turn on your TV to watch all your favourite puppet idols moving, dancing and giving you a nice big smile. Your own personal Mediatic Slaves.
Do they say no to the media? Hell no! They know how powerful the machine is and how to use it! In the end they' re just a fucking great band who has their heads to think by themselves. A breath of fresh air.
This is just the beginning of a long story.
Destroy ' cause it' s the only way to start anything great!
Provoque, put people discussing!
When friends are virtual, targets are real and still the same!
If in anyway you get offended by them, if you think they' re arrogant or great, drop us a line.
So.give a big hand of applause for Mediatic Slaves!
