	MUSIC ACTIVISTS RELEASE CONTROVERSIAL SONG
Undercurrents will release its final and 10th edition of the its award
winning alternative news-videos in two weeks time.
Undercurrents 10 will consist of the 'news that you don't see on the news'
such as radical pensioners taking action against Railtrack from destroying
the greenbelt, cannabis users taking on the law, people staging naked
protests outside parliment,  activists tearing down detention centres,  and
a chronoicle of direct action to stop Genetically modified food entering
Britain.

An inspiring and potential award winning music video from activist band
'Seize the day' will also be included. The song 'WIth my Hammer' challenges
the Labour government allowing the sales of arms to repressive regimes.
As a special offer , Undercurrents will offer a FREE CD of their
controversial new song attacking the Monsanto
Corporation with the first 100 newsvideos purchased.

Defending "Food, Health and Hope"  the potentially libelous song, band
member Shannon said

"Monsanto are on the run from British consumers. Now we're stepping up our
campaign by singing their true history . That's 60 years of destroying the
natural
 world summed up in 4 minutes of unforgettable music!"

The song is also available on their new website on http://www.seizetheday.org

Brushing aside fears of legal action, Singer Theo said
"We know that Monsanto have a record of using legal threats to silence
opposition. This way, people can listen, enjoy, download and distribute the
song without fear. Once it's on the net, it's unstoppable."

The band are planning to perform the song outside the High Court in London
on Monday 19th April, when Monsanto will seek injunctions against GM
activists.
