Dubioza Kolektiv have unleashed a fresh dose of Bosnian dance-inducing, ska-punk, party-rock anthems with the release of their new album #fakenews. Alongside the album, the band have shared the video for the new single 'Take My Job Away' featuring soon-to-be-famous internet robot star Robby Megabyte.
#fakenews is Dubioza Kolektiv's new album, which expresses their unique blend of righteous rage and love of life and humankind and is out now.
The spread of online #fakenews over the years was the main inspiration for this album and besides Robby Megabyte, the album features guest appearances by respected French artist Manu Chao, Earl Sixteen from Dreadzone, Toma Feterman of Soviet Suprem and Mexican band Los de Abajo. "In the age of fake news, clickbait journalism, propaganda and misinformation, it is difficult to distinguish the truth from lies. This is why our songs try to debunk and ridicule fake news. Migrations and refugees are not part of a grand conspiracy, marijuana is not a gateway drug, robots will not take away our jobs and artificial intelligence will not take over the world anytime soon. "What is more likely is that a lethal combination of politicians' greed and climate change will make the Earth uninhabitable in the not so distant future." Dubioza Kolektiv have been on a whirlwind journey since their formation in 2003, releasing nine studio albums, garnering millions of streams as well as fans and followers from all over the globe and have collaborated with an array of artists and musicians from all genres across their discography. The band's 2020 tour will kick off on February 5th and will come to the UK on the 12th starting in Birmingham. The tour also includes a date at London's Electric Ballroom. Kitted out in black and yellow football style outfits, Dubioza Kolektiv are a must-see act and if you are open to the experience, this will be a moment you will not forget!12th - O2 Institute, Birmingham
