Brad Skistimas, AKA Five Times August<\/a>, is a musician growing a niche fan base with songs including \u201cGod Help Us All,” \u201cI Will Not Be Leaving Quietly,\u201d and “Silent War.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

His latest release is “Ain’t No Rock ‘n Roll” with Baste Records, a label celebrating its one-year anniversary this month.<\/p>\n

Conservative musicians often find it hard to snag record deals while watching leftist singers catapulted by stardom-creating labels. This obstacle is surmountable, however, not through curated popularity but on sheer conviction shared between audience and musician.<\/p>\n

Five Times August nails what free people expect \u2013 and what painfully disappoints them \u2013 from anyone deemed to be a music “icon\u201d in \u201cAin\u2019t No Rock \u2018n Roll\u201d:<\/p>\n

All the words that were sung in the past<\/em>
\nWill never feel the same when we\u2019re looking back<\/em>
\nAll the old men sitting in their make-up chair<\/em>
\nWith their gold record walls really couldn\u2019t care<\/em>
\nAll the fame feels the same when you\u2019ve had enough<\/em>
\nSo they don\u2019t bother standing up<\/em><\/p>\n

All those \u201cbad boy\u201d rebels and the attitude<\/em>
\nWe didn\u2019t know that none of it was true<\/em>
\nOnly self-serving anti-establishment<\/em>
\nWe were all so innocent.<\/em><\/p>\n

Because there ain\u2019t no rock \u2018n roll<\/em>
\nAnd the blues has lost its soul<\/em>
\nCause all the punks gave the man control<\/em>
\nAnd every pop star\u2019s bought and sold<\/em>
\nNo there ain\u2019t no, ain\u2019t no rock \u2018n roll.<\/em><\/p>\n

The song expresses the incongruency of \u201cbad boy\u201d rockers \u201cnot showing up\u201d with backbone against severe early 2020\u2019s overreach. Emphasizing how personal the inauthenticity and manipulation as a fan has felt to Skistimas, “Ain\u2019t No Rock \u2018n Roll” lays into fake showmen:<\/p>\n

All the actors say what they\u2019re paid to say<\/em>
\nWhile the fans take the blame.<\/em>
\nAll the once cool fools that were me and you<\/em>
\nWell they pushed us all away.<\/em><\/p>\n

“Pushed around and pushed away” is exactly what medical dictatorship felt like, not only to Skistimas, he said, but to like-minded musicians at Baste and to millions who mobilized against the CDC’s extreme policy influence.<\/p>\n

No, crafted images do not equate to truth about the rock music era, as recognized even by academic researchers<\/a>. With few exceptions (Skistimas names Eric Clapton and Van Morrison as at least in tune with their own drummer), most entertainers stood by Dr. Anthony Fauci<\/a> (\u201cSad Little Man\u201d in a Skistimas\u2019 song).<\/p>\n

\"YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n

In fear and maleducation, they barred their fans from performance halls who had no card showing obedient injection with mRNA.<\/p>\n

Skistimas noted a punk band once wrote, “We’ll fight the powers that be\u2013this is our destiny\u2026 We’re not gonna take it.”<\/p>\n

“Well, what are these ‘powers’ to them? The local stores? Powerlifting gyms? Little leagues and playgrounds? Behold your ‘powers that be’ to these old acts. Everyone knows it\u2019s time for something new,” the singer said.<\/p>\n

The song sounds, ironically, very rock with its wailing slide guitars. It’s as if to send notice that while stars who trampled on people’s rights can\u2019t count on fans in return anymore, music that rocks will always speak to the heart.<\/p>\n

The music video for \u201cAin\u2019t No Rock \u2018n Roll” pulls news clips and quotes from the so-called rebels lining up in lockstep with pandemic overreach, one \u201cfree-minded star” after another donning the mask.<\/p>\n

Unlike the open model of the Internet age, a fan in the ’60s and ’70s was limited to the sandbox of mere hundreds of artists<\/a> signed in those years by Columbia, EMI-Capitol, RCA, and Apple Records, for the most part.<\/p>\n

By dominating the options for consumer home media, the record industry held a power of culture similar to the combined impact of the varied home entertainment commodities today.<\/p>\n

Exposing their ears in youth to LP \u201cstars\u201d and a little more might help explain generations\u2019 attachment to following what those celebrities do. It has taken decades to reckon with just how cornered the music market, and thus how capable record labels have been at unfortunate manipulations of opinions.<\/p>\n

For when \u201cthe man\u201d indeed clamped down with draconian policies, there never was a \u201cRage\u201d against the machine; there was instead a hypocritical “Boss\u201d<\/a> and an Antoinetteian “Queen.”<\/p>\n

Baste Records, having signed Five Times August as well as Chad Prather, Afroman, Hi-Rez and Rachel Holt, has set itself up to bond audiences and musicians on no smoke and mirror, but down-to-earth shared values. Head of Acquisitions, Chris Wallin, declares Baste Records an \u201canti-label<\/a>\u201d that will \u201cbuild an infrastructure of freedom-minded companies and individuals.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pop\u2019s old guard will never hand-select music for traditional values and freedom. An answer to faux showmen could sound like the independent artists at Baste Records.<\/p>\n
