Airborne Toxic Event might still be licking their wounds from the lashing they got on Pitchfork a while back, but they're getting back on the horse via "Neda" a song that the group has given to the Amnesty International-sponsored "I Am Neda," a campaign based around a woman who was killed while protesting the Iranian elections in 2009. The song and video kind of come off like a more meaningful version of Van Halen's "Right Now." Kudos all around. For more info go here.
This band is terrible.
