The Counter Elites: “I’m Followin’ You” / “Quality Control”

Mysterious SLF resident punk duo of anonymous muckraking miscreants The Counter Elites just released their second music video – an investigation in to the hearts and minds of pure evil: “I’M FOLLOWIN’ YOU” a jab at the omnipresent surveillance state, and “QUALITY CONTROL” on the dumbing down of damn near everything by the popular media. Look for the upcoming CD single on 4.20.13 at their next show at Small’s
