Music Existence Because of Music, We Exist
Pittsburgh’s Anti-Flag have released a short documentary film Power To The Peaceful, directed by Bruno Fritzsche. Power To The Peaceful centers around the band’s political reaction post-2016 and the community of likeminded individuals that their music and messaging have helped build. The film was produced by Hawkins & Cross. A quote from the band on Power To The Peaceful can be found below.
“This piece documents our collective search for empathy in the waking days of Trump’s presidency. Traveling Europe during the ever present rise of fascism, scapegoating of immigrants and refugees, and our scenes wanting to assert our voice in opposition to antiquated ideology. There was a fervor in the streets, the songs, the shows, a search for a place to focus our anger, frustration, fear.”
Anti-Flag begin a European tour on April 25th, which includes stops at Punk In Drublic, ANTIfest, and Slam Dunk. A full list of dates can be found below.
Anti-Flag’s podcast ANTIcast airs weekly on Sundays at 8PM est/5PM pst on IDOBI Radio.
