0JJ Cro Mag Hints at New Music Coming
AWWW YEAH. Earlier today, Cro Mags frontman John Joseph posted the following status:
The same statement was posted on the Cro Mags Facebook as well. I know this is something often said by musicians, something about not “doing it for the money or fame” and blah blah, but I don’t always feel it’s genuine or sincere. Coming from this man, I do feel as though he means it through and through, just as much today as he did in 1981. One of the things I respect most about JJ is his integrity. That is something I highly believe way too many people lack and he seems like a person that means what he says, and says what he means. He isn’t afraid of someone not agreeing with his hardcore, vegan, straight edge, ironman-loving lifestyle. He believes in it enough to wear those badges proudly and try to share his knowledge and opinions to help educate and inspire others.
A few months ago, Munchies (under the VICE umbrella) posted a Fuel episode featuring John Joseph, which I highly recommend watching if you haven’t already. You can view the episode on the Vice Munchies website. He doesn’t mention anything about new music, but the show focuses on what he eats and consumes in general on a daily basis so that he can do what he does. Seeing the posts on Facebook about something new in the works was a total surprise to me, but I am so stoked on it. Be sure to stay tuned for more updates on the matter!
