Tundra, Gaffa Tape Sandy, B.U.H, Kulk and Seymour Quigley (Horse Party/Miss Black America) ‘They Want Us To Die’ Video Premiere

Written in the aftermath of December 2019’s bitter, General Election, and recorded shortly before lockdown, ‘They Want Us To Die’ is three-minutes of incendiary politically charged garage-punk with a singalong chorus, that sees a Bury St Edmunds collective comprising Tundra, Gaffa Tape Sandy, B.U.H, Kulk and Seymour Quigley (Horse Party/Miss Black America) hurling invective at political polarisation. The DWP’s victimisation of vulnerable people, the underfunding and dismantling of the NHS, homelessness, the gender pay gap, illegal wars, the lie of austerity, the media’s complicity in spreading misinformation, the rise of nationalism and xenophobia, and weaponised false nostalgia; a salvo given horrific resonance by ongoing events.

Today, we debut the accompanying video it was filmed by Jade Ashleigh Squires (the drummer from Kulk) on a 1980s camcorder whilst the collective were recording the song in the studio.
