Anticitizen - Class War

 

  Anitcitizen are the anarcho/hardcore punk band from Hackettstown and Washington who featured on here a year ago with a hard hitting song called Bricks Not Ballots  https://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.com/2017/09/anticitizen-bricks-not-ballots.html. It was one of a couple of very promising tracks on their 2017 Promo. Since then (as well as featuring on a number of cool punk compilations) they've released a 7" single, Invasive Species/Endangered World and are now back with a new 4 track ep titled Stand Up And Fight. As well as the 2 tracks from the Promo, there's a couple of brand new ones, including the one you'll find at the bottom of this update. The ep is available on various coloured 7" from Wiseass Records (http://wiseassrecords.storenvy.com/collections/160360-all-products/products/24694020-anticitizen-stand-up-and-fight-7-ep-cd-bundle) and digitally on Bandcamp : https://anticitizenpunk.bandcamp.com/album/stand-up-and-fight

  So, Stand Up And Fight. 4 tracks of rough around the edges passionate punk rock anthems. No bells and whistles just honest to goodness diy gut punches that'll have you chanting along. With titles like Bricks Not Ballots, I Hate and You're A Cunt it's pretty obvious you're not getting songs about girls. Spleens are vented about banks, the police, religion, politics, the bourgeoisie etc. All worthy targets deserving of the bile that comes their way. If you like your music raw and angry then this is for you.

  So to the track I haven't mentioned yet. Track 1, the song the ep gets it's title from. Stand up and fight for your fucking rights, this is Class War...

1, 2, 3, Kill the Bourgeoisie
4, 5, 6, Time to bleed those pigs
7, 8, 9, The people will arise
10, 11, 12, Send them all to hell Yeah!

Class war x4

1, 2, 3, Kill the Bourgeoisie

Class war x4

Stand up and fight
Stand up and fight
Stand up and fight
to escape this life

Stand up and fight

for your fucking rights

  When democracy only applies to those that scheme, you need an alternative way to get your voice heard. This is Bricks Not Ballots.....

Has the red, white, and blue got you by the throat? 
Are you gasping for air? They’re demanding your vote 
Is the pig pen loose with punitive power? 
While the witches watch from their ivory tower? 

Bricks not ballots X2 
Has the lump in your throat got you fearful and callous? 
Bricks not Ballots X2 
They’ve stolen your voice, power unchallenged! 

Democracy applies to those that scheme 
They promise to restore your American dream 
Force-fed the illusion of freedom of choice 
We’re separate not equal don’t you wish you had a voice? 

Bricks not ballots X2 
Has the lump in your throat got you fearful and callous? 
Bricks not Ballots X2 
They’ve stolen your voice, power unchallenged!
