The band shared a statement on Instagram saying they hope help protect other artists from the “organized censorship” many have experienced after speaking out.
“The scenes in Gaza have moved beyond description,” the band wrote. “We write as artists who’ve chose to use our public platforms to speak out agains the genocide occurring there & the role of the UK Government in facilitating it. Because of our expressions of conscience, we’ve been subject to various intimidations from within our industry (live & recorded) & legally via organized bodies such as UK Lawyers For Israel; whose range of activities has now finally been exposed in a new documentary film projected last night by the Led By Donkeys collective.”
