We wanted to visually create something that highlights the power of the human spirit and the incredible accomplishments that mankind has achieved. It&#8217;s about how great we as a human race can truly be when we focus our energy into creating something positive in this world. It&#8217;s also a reminder that regardless of our differences we are all brothers and sisters. Our greatest achievements in history have come from tearing walls down&#8230;. not by building them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Rebel Light&#8217;s<\/strong> most recent release is the summery five-song EP <em><strong>A Hundred Summer Days<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0that is now on repeat at<strong> Chez Lefort<\/strong> (<em><strong>Strangers<\/strong> <\/em>is beguilingly catchy and <em><strong>Afterlife<\/strong> <\/em>is highly recommended), and you can listen\/pick it up <a href=\"http:\/\/therebellight.bandcamp.com\/album\/a-hundred-summer-days\"><strong>HERE<\/strong><\/a>.
