Against Me!- The Disco Before The Breakdown

[oreocookieking]

The guy holding the guitar looks like Tebow, which makes sense since against me! is from Gainesville

[MattyRockz]

Oh good memories of walking through town mohawks.boots,yellin drunken good times the good music provided.

[Kris1980ize]

I love this band

[AirlayLeekoh]

music for a homesick punkrocker.

[albinorainbow37]

lovelovelovelove. this song is insanely legit

[theandrewwebster]

I was gonna put a cover of this on a demo tape, but I have no idea how to fit this onto four tracks

[billtyfish]

Dear Against me,

Your music makes me want to smash shit up.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

[infernite1]

@blindeside23

...cheers man.



[prop8604]

i don't understand the lyrics. someone care to explain?

btw great song just like all the other work of this incredibly good band.

[TimothyRohe]

@prop8604 I've always taken this song to be about 'forbidden love', or a demonized romance.

[Blindside23]

@TimothyRohe anarchy bro!

[Emilyexists]

@Blindside23 lol, yes

[TimothyRohe]

@Blindside23 I've never put this song in a political context, but since you mention it I can see it. I do recall reading somewhere that this song, Clarity and the Ocean are suppose to be three parts of the same song.

[deadjoey77]

I will always love this song. So good i had to play it twice.

[againstwhatever]

"""We want a band that plays loud and hard every night

And doesn't care how many people are counted at the door

That would travel one million miles

and ask for nothing but a plate of food and a place to rest"""--Yeah, we're all looking fo that band..too bad it isnt and wasnt AM!......

[Maridalys]

Everyone who bitches about Against Me's decisions recently should listen to None More Black's You suck but your peanut butter is okay

[UTF]

This song is too too good, shame its not as well known as some of their others. If they play this next time they come through my city and we laugh at danger I could die happy, but I'm pretty sure they stopped playing we laugh when Warren left.

[kayaunderfire]

I don't care what anyone says. Against Me is the greatest band ever.

[patwoccokc]

well at least we know two people suck

[zzyzx0788]

Man, I havent heard this song in ages. Brings back good memories. Wish I could find a way to put it on my ipod. Against me will forever represent all of my younger idealistic beliefs.

[jorman8888888]

This band has pulled me through some shit, Even though thier new Almum blows ass this band will be one of my favorites for life, I love you agianst me! Keep on keepin on. Tom Gabel is a lyrical master.

[StratoCatser]

This song is gay.

In the most awesome way possible.

[cashmoneyvagrant666]

@StratoCatser well it's actually about being gay. so yeah... guess it is.

[tehguk]

This band has got me through life. And, the best part is that... it still continues to do so. Thank you, AM. Sincerely, one huge f#*&ing fan.

[algeo1]

I love the horns tbh, they're very intense and really fit into the song.

[Bestmorganiz]

Good fuckin band.

[Blindside23]

it was a long drunken night as my ex girlfriend was cheating on me, and still the only thing i remember before blacking out was this song playing over and over, im in love with it from that day on.

[Emilyexists]

@Blindside23 this sort of made my night, just reading this.

[Blindside23]

@Emilyexists here's to another ;P



[Emilyexists]

@Blindside23 (:

[DJBROOKSCA]

I miss old against me... they have changed, but still they put on a great live show and still produce great music.

[Xxxyzyz5698]

@monkeyturdman7 They aren't full anarchists... They used to be, but Tom voted for Obama this past election because he believed Obama could change our crappy country.

[theexpelled027]

@Xxxyzyz5698 who gives a flying fuck about politics, shut up and listen to the music

[mattpsol]

just cause theres horns doesnt mean its ska... still that kind of AM song that gets blood pumping

[Tyler106334122]

lol i know really, the beatles have horns in their music, are they considered ska?

[trumpetpuppy68]

this would probably be thier only song considered ska, but i have never heard of this almub b4

[skatopolis]

..opportunity comes at the price of 'soul' and the music...

[ktmyamaha01]

i cant find the answer... maybe im just not listening hard enough but is Tom is as strong felt towards Anarchy as he used to be??

[greyelf437]

He's gotten older. He's going to be having a kid in november-ish... i think hes still as ddisposed to anarchy as always, but he's going to be expressing it differently, if at all. I guess he's got other things to sing about, too.

[ktmyamaha01]

a kid? wow, old Tommy as a dad. lol. wonder what his name will be... and yeah, im sure hes got tons of stuff to sing about. all his older stuff was crammed with anarchist ideals and thoughts, most of which i dont understand. he used a lot of metaphors and im not too good with politics and metaphors.

[GVilleAnarcho]

...What? Im pretty sure most of his lyrics were really straight forward. Thats what made the band so awesome, they had those fuck-the-government sing alongs everyone could get into.

[CodyAllenmusic]

I think he is still an anarchist, as he still talks of anarchism... but You're right... I am not so sure.

[KyleBrock13]

againstme! with a dash of ska. awesome

[The7nationArmy]

I totally want to learn how to play that saxophone part at :58

[793461]

This song is awesomeee

[afads88]

wat the hell r u talking bout...i met them post new wave and they are still the shit...most down to earth/coolest band ive ever met

[poundog123]

Ur a fuckin prick! i no the band and played with them they rock

[DL973]

Still an honest band making honest music, major label or not.

[besthax13]

@DL973 Fuck Butch Vig, thats all. Theyre a great band without him

[CodyAllenmusic]

@DL973 If by honest you mean shitty. Used to be my favorite band. I tolerated New Wave. Their newest CD came out, and it is just bullshit mainstream mediocrity.

[lostboyfalkon]

@DL973 wtf are you talking about?

[DL973]

@lostboyfalkon Everyone has their own harsh opinions about these guys because a lot of people, myself included, started with this band when they were the essence of DIY, heart on the sleeve, no bullshit just music, band and if you saw them back then you know what I mean. Bottom line, I still believe that they can pull together an amazing record. And don't get me wrong, their recent efforts have not proven that but why route against them so hard? THAT is wtf I am talking about. So relax.

[JimmyCTunny]

@DL973 Yeah, coz Walking Is Still Honest

[mikeymacaque]

@DL973

Yea, but you gotta admit... they only gave it 35% on their last album....

[yuloveme537]

@mikeymacaque Props for a less than obscure reference ;)

[dylanmullaney]

@mikeymacaque HAHAHA, that was funny as fuck

[mikeymacaque]

@dylanmullaney

I'm glad people are smart enough to see that I wasn't really being a dick, lol.

[BlacktopFilmer7]

@DL973 I truley Disagree if you look at the so called "New Wave" style they have now it sucks and so does their music i would of respected them more if they came out with a rap album

[MrBatManIsAPunk]

@BlacktopFilmer7 And I'm sure they would have respected you more if you made a record at all. Or started your own label. Or stayed with a band for 14 years. Those are all things Against Me! has done. And what did you do? You wrote a comment on Youtube. MAJOR accomplishment dude. I'm sure your whole family is proud.

[poundog123]

real sexy

[poundog123]

I think Against Me! has gone through obvious changes. None of which I consider bad. I do and always will love Against Me!. Then, and now, they are one of the best bands ever. The best three live shows i've seen were three Against Me! shows.

[ChaosWizard13]

I like it...

[kaky2007]

first song i heard. i was hooked. beautiful song

[BumPuncher123]

this song is amazing.

[cambodiadk123]

love this song
