Carbon County are musical citizens of mystery. 1 part dystopian messengers, 2 parts “Spy vs Spy.” Who are these masked beings? Men? Women? Children? It matters not. The message is the medium and Carbon County are drawing on a late 20th century vision of art, music, freedom and culture forged by Joe Strummer, Billy Bragg, Banksy, The Residents and Patti Smith. The band has contributed a track and trailer for the 90s Y2K throwback film Millennium Bugs which releases later this year and has a music video featuring Tommy Chong to come out with it. Tear it all down with thunderous drums, blow it all up with shotgun guitars and point the megaphone microphone deep into your soul.

“The single’s chorus bellows
“Shed my skin so, I can survive,
I just get up and die, I just get up and die”.
Eastern philosophy meets East New York, Buddhism meets Budweiser. The 21st century instagram ego is of no interest to Carbon County. Tear it all down with thunderous drums, blow it all up with shotgun guitars and point the megaphone microphone deep into your soul. Everything you have known is gone or going so “Get Up and Die.”
