Take old skool rave, add indie/punk sensibilities and anarchist politics, shake vigorously, then see what happens...
Total semi-competent amateur and proud of it! There are currently 10 full albums, 5 EPs and numerous stray tracks available here... keep checking up, cos more music is appearing all the time... For album and EP artwork, visit . If you think you can stomach more of this shit, then why not check the , and wonder at my musical development (or lack thereof...) I now also have a page dedicated to I've done for other people... Finally, there's also a wee side project that I have which goes by the name ...

Story behind the song
Yup... another punk type track, but this time I've managed to do the vocals myself, and I'm reasonably pleased with them... As for what it's about... well... read the lyrics - I think they make it pretty clear...
Lyrics
What the world needs is higher walls and security To separate us from our neighbours and undermine the community What the world needs is a guard on every gate To keep out the peasants and leave the needy to their fate What the world needs is more bobbies on the beat To harass the youth and keep control of the street What the world needs is ID cards and chip implants So Big Brother can watch us and know our thoughts in advance What the world needs is shit on every TV station To fool and distract and sedate the population What the world needs is a leader to follow So our fine words and phrases about freedom ring hollow What the world needs is a messiah to save us And a priest and a book and a church to deprave us What the world needs is more sarcastic songs To slap you in the face and tell you what’s going wrong What the world needs is a final solution What the world needs is a fuckin revolution The world needs something cos it’s all messed up What the world needs is to wake the fuck up! Cos it’s always on my mind we’re not doing enough To stop it all going to hell, we keep on hitting self-destruct Time after time we keep ignoring the warning Let the problems pile up and say “We’ll deal with it in the morning” And we’re living in hope that somehow that day will never come When the balance finally tips and it all falls down You think we can keep on subtracting and never reach zero Are you dumb or just deluded cos you’re acting like Nero Fiddling while Rome burns, going down with the Titanic Or running round in circles like Corporal Jones yelling “Don’t panic!” Action is urgent, you can’t just keep this one on file We’ve got to round up the criminals and put the bastards on trial We’ve gotta smash capitalism and dismantle the state We’ve gotta rip out by the roots all the bigotry and hate We’ve gotta share what’s left and end the pollution There’s no time for half-measures, we need an all-out revolution Cos destruction’s the passion that clears the ground for creation What the world needs is more sedition and less sedation
