Born Against
cut, 11:41h
Born Against war eine der einflußreichen linksradikalen Hardcore Bands der 90er Jahre. Einflußreich auch für mich. Das kann man wohl sagen. Ob Hardcore/Punk links ist, diese Frage hat sich für mich nie gestellt. Klar, was sonst? Die anderen haben einfach nicht dazu gehört.
FUCK ROCK. Fuck cigarettes and slicked back hair that ends in a pony tail and a high door price. Maturity and progression do not mean status quo music and ideals. Under the false pretense of reaching new audiences, former punk bands bring us closer to square one, throwing out the window the foundation of independance which took years to build. This band is an attempt to reinforce those quickly eroding foundations. Maybe these "rock" types don't see it this way, but speaking as someone who has never been lured by the slippery slope of psuedo concerned UPC code post hardcore bullshit, common sense tells me that no matter how many reggae songs you write about human rights, your audience will still "rock out" and drink wine coolers. Then they'll go home and fuck like dogs to your politically concerned kick ass tunes. THE MEDIUM IS THE MESSAGE!
