Premiere: The Brokedowns – “Samurai Sword Decontrol” From Their New Album Maximum Khaki

Riot Fest veterans and local Chicago dudes The Brokedowns have a new album coming out on January 20th, which includes this spectacle of a music video called, “Samurai Sword Decontrol.”

Now, for the first time ever, you can see the music video for “Samurai Sword Decontrol” exclusively on RiotFest.org

But what is this song all about? Who knows. So we asked Kris from The Brokedowns to tell us:

This song is about the industries that target and exploit our anxiety over home invasion by bombarding us with nightmare scenarios and how you must maintain constant vigilance against highly unlikely threats.  Coincidentally, It happens to dovetail nicely with our new partnership with Ring and their current line of Luxury Samurai Swords… Look out, they’re coming for you!
