The tales they create are crazy lies and full of hate
A pinch of fat cat gold and backed by the state
A shameless irony that countless still believe
You too can write the past if you pay correct fees
The classes don’t control what the media behold
Rich n poor fight it out you’re doing as you’re told
Then we stood back n judged the earth turned to dust
Coz this generation’s built on greed n mistrust
We’ve been fed a belly full of lies
Whilst western eyes just occupy
If the poor are unhealthy and the rich are getting wealthy
Then is there such a thing as equality
No one knows where the money’s really gone
And this lifelong problem’s just dawned
I don’t wanna be misinformed
N I really don’t wanna be uniformed
There’s no problem with this planet
It’s the fuckers we’ve let run it
Dragged us down beat us down
Told us we have fucked it
We’re taking power back for the kids on the streets
We’re taking power back for the people who want peace
No tax break for high rate wankers
Stand up for the lower classes
Simple plans with simple aims
With naught to lose but all will gain
Kick out all government gangsters
Lock up the fat cat bankers
They had their time they’ve had their fun
Now Bring em down one by one
For high rate wankers
Government gangsters
Fat cat bankers
And those defying taxes
We can be our own police
And bring the peace back to our streets

This band is PHENOMENAL, its another of those bands that within a week of discovering them I bought the entire discography. The only crit I have is they didnt include the words "solidarity forever" in the last track. crustydread
Knockout debut from a Buffalo, New York-based hardcore band who like their riffs sick, their drums fast, and their choruses sticky-sweet. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 28, 2024
The Minneapolis band add a horn section, a running surrealist allegory about walls, and an occasional nod to the elegiac to their electroshocked post-punk. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 4, 2024
