About

"And did the Countenance Divine Shine forth upon our clouded hills? And was Jerusalem builded here Among these dark Satanic mills?" -- William Blake, Jerusalem Not really the fairy tale land of Doctor Who, police who don't carry guns and Harry Potter, England can be a pretty grim place to live. Starting with the punk movement through to the current dubstep scene, the societal conditions of a country with a fucked up class struggle that's filled with housing projects and unemployment has brought us a lot of interesting music. And that's what this mixtape is about: the amazing albeit bleak music of England. (I have nothing against it as a country or a group of people, I just thought this would make for a good mix). http://brokenwalkman.blogspot.com/2009/11/englands-dreaming-its-grim-across-pond.html
