The Bad Penny (beta)

Brendan Sloan is a visionary multi-instrumentalist who refers to himself on his Bandcamp page as “once gadigal, then kaurna, now graciously living on unceded wurundjeri land, so-called australia.” The man behind the best one-man death-metal band in The Land Down Under touches base with The Bad Penny in the latest edition of our ongoing series, On Tyranny.

The extremely well-informed Sloan provides a university-grade lesson on the history of his country’s genocide against indigenous farmers, encroaching fascism and antisemitism, and threats posed by growing fascist-right and techno-fascist movements in his homeland.
