Early 21st Century Blues

The Junkies wrote two of their own songs, 'December Skies' and 'This World Dreams Of' for this new album and the rest is made up of covers. They instructed one another to bring in two or three songs, written by others and the themes of the songs had to relate to war, violence, fear, greed, ignorance, loss. In doing so, their goal was 'to create our own small document of hope.' As one might expect, the band covers songs by John Lennon, Bob Dylan, U2 and Bruce Springsteen, among others. 11 tracks. Cooking Vinyl. 2005.
