Wailin Storms – Fourth of July

July 4, 2025
Written by Chris Cornell. Performed by Wailin Storms
Self Released

“This track has always resonated with us and has a mystical quality. It’s cryptic, heavy, and eerily prophetic. It feels like the only honest response to what’s happening right now—where fascist snake-oil salesmen are looting the nation, gunning for World War III, gutting healthcare, erasing trans rights, locking up immigrants, and leaving poor and disabled people to die in the margins. All while demanding loyalty to some bloated fake king. Sound familiar?”
