It’s released with \nmultiple essays in an accompanying zine, one that follows environmental \nand humanitarian journalist Aidan Frere-Smith and another that tells the\n story of a homelessness crisis in a city full of unused housing. \nUtilizing a mix of propulsive rhythm and furious, explosive guitars to \nmaximum effect, Bad Breeding have weaponised their anger in the fight \nfor survival; “Because these days are ours to take \/ Seize them with \nunion, love and rage”.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChristopher Dodd explains “Capital and its bourgeois foot soldiers \nhold nothing but contempt for working people and it’s in that contempt \nwe can find solidarity with one another. Whatever story gets sold and \npackaged, contempt guides every move of the capitalist class. We see it \nevery day – unspeakable destruction from war and government-sponsored \ngenocide, exploitation of workers and the very gutting of the planet we \nlive on. Only when we realise and utilise the utter contempt held for us\n can we reach a level of class consciousness that will provide an \nadequate challenge to capital”.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"One Little Independent Records","offers":[{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":50427403010379,"sku":"2187223","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Clear LP","offer_id":50427403927883,"sku":"2187300","price":29.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50427401929035,"sku":"2187222","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/Contempt_f31499af_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726824789","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/de\/products\/contempt","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
