My approach to punk and hardcore is, without something being said lyrically, what's the fucking point? Why play angry music just to write lyrics that reinforce the status quo, either with misogynistic woman hating bullshit, whining about your ex-girlfriend, or with stupid shit about beer ? Honestly, what's the point? What is the difference between you and any asshole date rapist frat boy out there? You can just picture them with their shit eating grins on saying, "Yeah, I like to fuck chicks and get drunk, too". Fuck off. I'm not saying that all lyrics have to be overtly text book political, (that's just boring), but give it some fucking thought, for fuck's sake. Some of the best bands out there today are not necessarily about politics, but they give their shit some depth. Capitalist Casualties, Coke Bust, Vile Intent, Write Off, Car 87, Seein' Red (okay, they are totally political), Leatherface, Hero Dishonest, etc....All of these bands have something to offer, and they are all different from each other. All of that being said, we do find ourselves on the bill with bands who are not in this category. But that's fine. Everything I'm writing is just my opinion on this genre of music. This is the reason I got into it in the first place. The lyrical depth, the (supposed) lack of ego, the DIY ethic, and the fucking music fucking rocks. Yes, it does. Some bands are into the shock value thing, and that's fine for them. I am not. No, I'm not some PC uptight asshole (as anyone who knows me will attest to), as many of our lyrics will not appeal to those liberal folks who want everyone to just accept each other and be all warm and fuzzy. Fuck that. People need to be called out on their shit. Anyway, fuck the mainstream. Especially mainstream fucking "punk" bullshit. Pathetic warp tour motherfuckers. Good night.
