MEET JOHN DISSED
Inspired by the likes of Tom Petty, The Ramones, Thin Lizzy and KISS, his songs are comprised of layered vintage guitars and vocal harmonies, owing much influence to years of classical music study. But bells and whistles aside, it’s ultimately about the melodies, which can be distilled down to their source: the lyrics. The songs range in subject matter from perpetual war, rendition and torture, the creeping American “police state” unfolding before our eyes under the guise of increased “national security” in the wake of 9/11, as well as the JFK assassination.
Two songs are being offered here: One from each of John's political solo albums. "Honey Pot" (Red Flag), explores the idea of a female spy using sex to lure a politician into a state of pliant vulnerability, controllable by blackmail. "Dirty Business," (American University) was inspired by the Project Unspeakable play, which came out of the book by James Douglass, JFK and the Unspeakable: Why He Died and Why it Matters.
The songs are available for free download here only, in exchange for your email address. You will receive a series of informational emails, with further offers. You can always unsubscribe at anytime with just a click.
WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING ABOUT [ARTIST NAME]...

"John Dissed is a cool as fuck Jimmy Dore/Lee Camp/Caitlin Johnstone style, truth-telling punk activist, he's ready to testify-he has thoughtfully and painstakingly researched the Kennedy assassination cover-up and written all these catchy, memorable, melodic pop tunes like a garage land, low budget Oliver Stone from the long lost underground..."
PUNKGLOBE
"Red Flag is the kind of wake-up call we'd like to think The Boss would give to the masses, if only he weren't so shamelessly co-opted by the Democratic party himself. Born In The USA, indeed - and if Springsteen forgets what that means, Dissed most definitely does not."
VEGLAM
"His guitars will please fans of George Harrison, and Rick Springfield, while his words will stimulate people who read “The Nation” magazine and appreciate Phil Ochs, Paul K & The Weathermen, or the Gin Blossoms... If you love the politics of Tom Morrello or the Coup, or the catchy pop excellence of Dramarama, you’ll dig the dark, cerebral pop of John Dissed".
