We just recieved this from Epitaph:

[…] we just signed the incendiary Hip Hop icons, The Coup, to Epitaph for the world…..they blend revolutionary left wing politics with prince-like funk and superb lyrical skills….
This past fall, the leader of the group, Boots Riley, toured the US with Billy Bragg, Steve Earle and Tom Morello on the "Tell Us The Truth Tour" which spoke out against corporate media. Boots, who has been a political activist longer than he has been a musician, went over very well with that audience as well which consisted mostly of older Billy Bragg fans.
