let me tell you a little story about blood and glory;
a 21st century manifest destiny
a spiderweb of military influence
strangles the world into forced compliance
we're gonna replace your blood
with brand name soda company products
another failed economic policy
they're gonna invade another country for you and me
(not for me! not for me!)
killing everybody for the land of the free
a woman and her children toil in the wastelands outside the drawbridge
of the gilded city where everyone wants to live
the people inside got apocalyptic blues
dude look around the world ended in 1942
and they keep building more bombs! more bombs!
more ways of causing more people more harm!
another failed economic policy
they're gonna invade another country for you and me
(not for me. not for me.)
killing everybody for the land of the free
you fascist golden crowned thieves
you scorch the Earth for greed but NOT FOR ME!!
Powerful in every way, this DC hardcore group's first full-length is the siren song to having no home as a person of color—in punk, in society, in America. It could not have arrived at a more appropriate time. Bandcamp Album of the Day Jul 15, 2016
Berkely duo Axe serve up four catchy, heavy synth-punk rippers inspired by campy horror flicks and old-school heavy metal. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 28, 2021
Oakland band Silent Era's sound is a killer mix of classic hardcore and NWOBHM. On their second LP, they're especially urgent and anthemic. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 1, 2020
Three songs from this raucous New Zealand group that prove punk still has teeth and isn’t afraid to lunge and bite. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 31, 2019
Big and fuzzy and full of right angles and off-kilter hooks, there's a lot of '90s DC/Baltimore DIY tradition in this newer DC band. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 26, 2017
