St. Louis Bubonic Plague reliever Ad Liska has released his first album, titled, "Cry Out Loud." The album, which features
folk music from Liska's home of Dwight, Nebraska, has been mildly received by the public.
However, sales have been brisk in DBS cities, especially in St. Louis. Liska has been praised by some in the St. Louis media for attempting to
bring the community together through song, while others have criticized the erstwhile picture for the album's "hidden messages."
The cover, which depicts a sword raised to the sky (see attachment), has been interpreted by some as an unnecessary antagonistic measure,
especially in light of the April riots in St. Louis over the Plague's poor start. Similarly, some state that the title is a back-handed stab towards the
Plague's front office and its recent appointment of "Smiling" Mammy as PR director.
Liner notes within the album only state that the album is dedicated to "the fans of St. Louis" and to "always remember 1930." ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS.....A VERY DBS CHRISTMAS
