Thurston Moore is feeling the Bern. The Sonic Youth co-founder joins the ranks of Vampire Weekend, Neil Young, Grizzly Bear, Killer Mike, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers in supporting the Democratic underdog, and apparently has taken his fandom a step further by breaking out his guitar for an original Bernie-inspired piece.
Officially a "collaboration" with Sanders, the single, "Feel It in Your Guts," is "a 12-string acoustic piece laced with excerpts from Bernie Sanders' speeches, touching on topics like the worship of money, economic inequality, social justice, and the need for basic human rights for all people."
