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
This is about... jingoism, I suppose: the first two verses concern the antagonism between Mackems and Geordies - the rest of it in a more general sense.
Lyrics
I don’t know how it started and neither do you It’s a stupid tradition, this ancient feud The details lost in the mists of time All I know is it’s not my fight A power struggle in the distant past Between aristocrats and the middle class Yet still we’re lumbered with this rivalry Though it’s nowt to do with either you or me So why should we fight when there’s nothing to prove? Why help the rich divide and rule? Fuck tradition, open your eyes and see Now’s the time for solidarity It’s the same old story all the time The rich start the trouble but it’s the poor who fight They hide the truth behind national pride “It’s us against them and we’re on your side” So just wave your flag and fall in line God, queen or country blinds your eyes That nationalist bollocks is nowt but a lie The only one that matters is the class divide So why should we fight when there’s nothing to prove? Why help the rich divide and rule? Fuck tradition, open your eyes and see Now’s the time for solidarity
