The band Bloodstorm visits Tau Ceti during their galatic tour.
The controversial band Bloodstorm, an experimental Tajaran music group, has recently announced concert dates and locations for their first extrasolar tour. Using a mixture of traditional Tajaran instruments and human techniques, the band has created a “style never before seen in the Adhomian music scene”, says their most prominent fan website. Bloodstorm deals with themes related to the Tajaran youth, their place in the Civil War and are widely known for shocking lyrics and criticism of the ruling regimes.
Rumors abound that their journey to Tau Ceti was brought about due to increased scrutiny from the Democratic People’s Republic of Adhomai, their home country. Despite these rumors, Bloodstorm’s official social media states that their tours through Tau Ceti, Elyra, and Sol are for both their existing fans and to expand their fanbase by bringing the truth of their music to entire galaxies who have never heard them in person.
The Immigration Museum worked closely with the Miran’mir Academy of Scientific Pursuits in the development and construction of the exhibit. The Academy has even loaned out one of their most significant artifacts: the Mezuma Imperial Throne. An excellent example of early Imperial Age craftsmanship, the Throne was presumed lost after the sacking of Mezuma in 2421. It was only discovered recently in the basement of a brewery a mere seven years ago, and this will be the first time it has traveled outside of Adhomian space.
The “Truth” Tour is in celebration of the release of Bloodstorm’s newest album, titled “Why Not Do it Again?”, which promises to focus on hot button topics such as the high rate of disabled veterans after the Civil War, the increase in poverty on Adhomai, and the economic disparity between many Tajara. Vargir “Godslayer” Stenovich, the speaker and manager for the group, has confirmed that this will be their most brutal album yet. When asked about the rumors regarding conflicts with the DPRA, Mr. Stenovich responded: “Bloodstorm is ready to show Tau Ceti how things really are, don’t matter what the embalmed corpses in the government say.”
While the band’s announcement was met with praise and joy from their fans both to reporters and on online mediums such as social media or forum boards, the concert tour has met with significant consternation from others. Tajara ambassadors protested, implying that Bloodstorm’s music is both improper and insulting to Tajaran culture. Human family groups, including the influential Family Matters and Moms for Morality, have also protested the concerts. Nevertheless, government officials have remained firm in allowing Bloodstorm to pass through their systems without issue.
