San Francisco, Calif. — November 3, 2008 —San Francisco alternative-industrial rock band Marrow today issued a public statement through their puppet mascot, taking a hard line stance against the actions by the US government to bail out failing financial institutions.
"Everyday people know that misery is stasis and trying to breathe some irrational exuberance back into the market is just a bread-and-circuses attempt to fight against the emotional entropy that's natural to human beings and financial markets," says the band, speaking through its furry mascot, a black hand puppet named Glummy.
This isn't the first public policy debate the polyester-and-plastic pundit has dipped a toe into the political fray. In recent months, Glummy has taken flack for his stance on the Olympics, the US Presidential Campaign and California's Proposition 8. "[Those behind Proposition 8] think marriage should be 'kept sacred' for a man and a woman. What about puppet rights? And don't they know that nothing is truly sacred?" said Glummy of the hotly contested ballot measure.
The band's website, , offers the Glummy podcast as well as tour dates and exclusive tracks from Marrow's recent album, "Quiet Desperation."
