We have so many problems here in America Latina, that people don\u2019t even think about the non-human animals, so being a vegan, straight edge and anarchist band here is very necessary.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond the band we are involved with vegan anti-consumerist collectives and the struggle for public transport. We think that talking about veganism is talking about anti-consumerist politics, anti-capitalist issues and a lot of other things that are directly connected with the human and non-human animal liberation.<\/p>\n<p>Our Album \u2018Work.
