Softcult have released a video for their new single Shortest Fuse.
“Capitalism seems to be designed to keep underprivileged people toiling in a never ending cycle of debt and poverty where their labour is underpaid in order to profit their employers,” the band comment. “The benefits of capitalism are rarely equally distributed, accruing wealth to a very small percentage of the population. Built on the notion of greed, benefitting only by paying workers less than what their labour is worth, it’s difficult to not become disenfranchised with capitalism when you exist in this reality and see no end in sight. We can’t become complicit in a system that is designed to keep us down.”
