Just like a majority of the country, I was completely addicted to the Making A Murderer series. It was compelling and brought up what felt like another fail from our justice system.
The guys from The Arcs seem to agree as well. Their latest release, "Lake Superior," is full of subtle and not so subtle references to the controversial story. The star-studded band led by The Black Keys frontman, Dan Auerbach, is evidently in favor of both defendants. In fact, a portion of their proceeds from downloads of this song go to the Innocence Project- a collective which assists prisoners who could be proven innocent through DNA testing.
The Arcs wrote, mixed and mastered this song in under a week. Without hearing the song, that could throw up a red flag. Yet with one listen, it's evident that this track is amazingly well written and produced wonderfully. This group is in a groove and putting out great music. This track however, is full of sad realities. Although psychedelic and mellow guitar riffs build and change throughout, the lyrics closely tell a story that is profoundly sad. Give this a very close listen, it's well worth it.
