That’s where the blinders come in on the Down In Wuhan cover. The cover symbolizes the way our band felt at the time of the shut down as well as other people we loved around us, which was shut out, locked down, and fed a bunch of garbage from the Chinese Authoritarian infiltration that’s bleeding into our country, and wants to bleed our society of great generations of Americans dry etc. I was behind those blinders on our new Down In Wuhan album cover, I’m like all other sensible American God, Guns, n Family people. I saw through the lies of the lockdown rules by the far left winger fanatics and put pen to paper during the Covid-19 pandemic lockdown and wrote and recorded our new We Are The Black Things Down In Wuhan record,” Expresses Tone Raven.
