  • I love how everyone makes up these stories so they might have a chance for top comment. Way to go guys, keep it coming!

  • I've got fucking raccoons in my attic, they come in through a basketball sized hole in the roof. What did the prick slumlord do? He stuffed chicken wire in said hole and called it fixed. Thanks fucknut.

  • BURLINGTON, VERMONT IS RULED BY RICH, CORRUPT LANDLORDS!

  • @DavidfromBA - that's a good point i have to admit it. there's no way i can enjoy biafra who i consider a clown, but i won't push the matter any further. if y'all want to enjoy this group that's fine by me

  • that solo is some of the best guitar work in recent history, imo

  • That East Bay Ray surf solo is a thing of considerable beauty. 20 odd seconds of perfection.

  • @TheGamerDictator - let's be fair. Biafra has made some good points, but he tells you what to think, and in many cases his directions are flawed. As an example, take California Uber Alles where he compares CA under Jerry Brown to Nazi Germany. Maybe he's not stupid, but that is a stupid observation - it's absurd, and worse, irritating.

  • @131flora Those lyrics, and countless other lyrics by the DK's and other bands alike, are very tongue-in-cheek and not to be interpreted literally. Dark humor has always been part of Biafra's appeal. This appears to be lost on you.

  • @gta4cat - that's a relief :P

  • @AwesomeSauceLimited - yeah, I admit my comment was fairly contradictory. what i wanted to point out is that the dead kennedys' lyrics are generally extremely stupid due to biafra, e.g., California Uber Alles where he compares CA under Jerry Brown to Nazi Germany

  • @131flora I think Biafra is brilliant. I don't know why you find him stupid...

  • great lyrics but i can't stand jello biafra

  • @131flora What?D:

  • @131flora why? your intideled to your opinions im not going to lynch you for it. :D

  • Amusing and pointed lyrics, danceable punk with a great minimalist guitar solo - only DK could do it.

  • Best dk bassline?

  • @metalmilitia137 yeah, but Chemical Warfare is better in my opinion

  • My apartment has a policy in which they can freely enter my apartment when I'm not home for maintenance as well as to search for hidden pets (and the hidden money I had in a box under the sink). Scum fucks.

  • we've got 6 landlords :D

  • Please share your links so we can paly them and promote you on our pages! I

  • KAK fuck shit dead,no future,dead,zombie,kill......d­o not like life,life life!

  • KAK fuck shit dead,no future,dead,zombie,kill

  • You know we can!!!

  • No doubt, great album... 

  • Today I had a dream. A dream in I was dancing to this song with random old man who I met in a halfway from Berlin O_o We sang it along together...

  • 457 / (457 + 6) * 100 is (drumroll, please) 99%

  • 6 / (457 + 6) * 100 is (drumroll, please) 1%

  • This album is a classic. Right up there with Black Flag's "Damaged".

  • @Punk93Metal So true. Those two recordings changed my life.

  • I´m a fuckin´brazilian, and this music is fuck a lot!!!!! some rocks in brazil, TODAY is fuckin trash, I prefer old rocks, punks 80ies.......COOL man!!!! Iove dead kennedys!!!!!!!

  • great song poor quality

  • @Autodidiact welcome to punk

  • @monkeymagoo47 youre right...dont know what i was thinking. lol

  • I'm getting evicted this week, thought this might be a nice soundtrack to trying to find a new place

  • @challengetom play this song as you walk by him ! imagine his face!

  • @challengetom yep. i got evicted from 2000 miles of canal network after losing a court case. the judghe said i was unlawfully present on the canal because i owned my boat and had a job

  • Every renter on Earth can relate! Always liked that the DKs went for the mid-tempo, fuzzed-out Sixties garage-punk sound on this (the riff is a near-copy of the Blues Magoos "We Ain't Got Nothin Yet").

  • Ive just had my bastard landlord round, i thought he was going to cry when the builder told him he needed to put a new roof on to fix the leaks, now I feel nice and smug.

  • Crap...I just did a video response to this video about lynching the landlord and I was going to add a comment like "please don't lynch me...I'm a landlord and here's what I offer my prospective tenants in Clacton on Sea, United Kingdom" but I didn't get a chance. Sorry ANTIanitmetalclub... it was a bit of a wry joke on my part but in isolation the video doesn't mean anything lols

  • @changingfortunes The song is about slum lords in particular.

  • @pchapman905

    But ALL landlords fall into this category.

  • @m0bi Good point.

  • The Needle Drop.

  • I used to live in a house in Minneapolis that was right out of inner-city Detroit. The basement flooded whenever it rained, the back door didn't lock which resulted in multiple thefts, most of the windows were caulked shut, the carpet was filthy, one bedroom had a floor that slanted so bad you had to lean into it, there was no AC in the summer and no heat in the winter, and on top of all that I'm half-convinced the place was haunted. $500 a month for that shit.

    Should've lynched my landlord.

  • @ScreamBloodyMetal Why would you live in Rot-city? Ye poor miserable soul.

  • @ScreamBloodyMetal What you said made no sense what-so-ever. You can't live in Minneapolis close to the inner-city of Detorit, they're in different states. Minneapolis is in Minnesota & Detroit's in Michigan. Dumbass.

  • @Sublime420ZigZag That isn't what I said at all. What I said was, the house I lived in LOOKED like it belonged in Detroit.  So now who's the dumbass?

  • @ScreamBloodyMetal Hint: I believe it is NOT you. :)

  • @ScreamBloodyMetal Why the fuck did you even decide to live there?

  • @Awesomeman37 Desperation. There were no other options in the area.

  • @ScreamBloodyMetal that's your retard fault for living there.

  • @Skluurg It was either that or live in my car, so you can fuck right off with that shit.

  • Comment removed

  • some people dont get this song they need to learn history sigh our generation is seriously dumb.

  • Yes we can...

  • @JonesArmandoHoward u forgot the t at the end of can

  • @reznoz

    you are a douche bag that mentioned it instead of just commenting on the comment.

    that's like basically saying I have a stick up my a55 and I can't enjy life...(i didn't put an o in enjoy either).

    WTF...

    not even worth sending me a comment response for...

  • @JonesArmandoHoward lol u mad bro?

  • @reznoz

    come at me reznoz

  • @gastonhr ight um wat the fuck is a gas tonhr fist?

  • @gastonhr ight um wat the fuck is a gas tonhr first?

  • two fuckin landlord's

  • I dedicated this tune to my landlord today. He's trying to raise our rent during the time covered by our lease. Crazy old fucknut!

  • SERIOUSLY FUCK LANDLORDS

  • umm guyz on which album i can find this song ? .. thx

  • @SiSterCzech this is on the album "Fresh Fruit For Roting Vegetables" - great stuff!

  • thats one of the best songs ever constructed,its just brilliant.

  • 2 people are blasting disco down below

  • Dumbasses! Stop talking world war 2 and start talking about SHITTY landlords! I had one that calld the cops on us, her own fucking tenants, because we played music after nine in the fucking evening. Goddamned old hag, I hope she choked on ground glass!

  • David Granger Lives !

  • @harley333man you can't say the Russian winter won the war, it was primarily due to the endless supply of Russian men, American aid, industry and the T-34. The winter had an impact but its not the only reason, for example the Battle of Kursk took place in July

  • What the fuck was World War 2???

  • @odinsspawn1

    You're kidding, right?

  • @ANTIanitmetalclub let's hope...

  • @odinsspawn1 A war between the Russian winter and the Germans. Just like every war involving an invasion of Russia, the winter won. Many other things happened as well, but that was the deciding factor in Europe.

  • @odinsspawn1 It was when the Germans raped Polacks, Serbs, Francophones, Russians and Jews just for the lulz! :|

  • @Donkeyn00b Uhhh. Russos got tired of the orgy. And then they organized the rest of their Slav friends and zerg rushed Germany.

  • @rusher38 You make absolutely no sense atm ;D

    Please come back when you're sober :p

  • @Donkeyn00b Okay, I BELIEVE I am sober now.

    Let's try this again.

    The Russians got tired of being buttfucked by the Germans. So they went around and gathered up the rest of their Slavic friends and then they started a full on zerg rush to Berlin where they started to buttfuck Hitler.

    =D

  • @rusher38 That makes no sense, it was the Russian winter that bested the Germans which enabled the Russians to invade, before that the Russians couldn't do anything.

  • @Donkeyn00b You, sir, are ruining my joke.

  • @odinsspawn1 WW2 was when hitler took over germany as a dictator and killed millions of jews cuz he thought they were imperfect. he sent them to concentration camps and murdered. meanwhile the US and USSR were trying to liberate them. eventually they caught up with hitler and freed the jews. but by that time hitler killed himself cuz he lost control over germany and the Kapos were trying to kill him at the same time.

    i hope that explains some what

  • @odinsspawn1 your a cleche punk rock dumb ass?

  • @odinsspawn1 Sad dude...

  • @odinsspawn1 Funny..

  • @odinsspawn1 are you joking around? cause thats a pretty stupid question

  • @KittenDoll218 he was making fun of the first question about dachau, saying they're on the same level of stupidity

  • @nymetsrock oh ok

  • @odinsspawn1 you shold be a politician.

  • @odinsspawn1 nothing important (jus kiddin')

  • similar to a number of songs by chumbawamba.. e.g. the big issue or one by one

    hey before you attack me I DO KNOW dead kennedys did it before! i'm just sayin' the content of the song sounded familiar... while music is different, chumbawamba are more into pop/dance

  • 1 dislike too many

  • @pikajesus

    It was a concentration camp in Germany during World War 2.

  • @ANTIanitmetalclub Ah alright.

  • @pikajesus eat shit

  • @TheTeamMinority What? lol

  • @ANTIanitmetalclub What is this song about exactly?

  • @ANTIanitmetalclub im pretty sure all these people are uneducated dumb asses... please excuse there lack of intelligence

  • @pikajesus lol it has to be something really gnarly .since he says it smells like dachau

  • @pikajesus You're a fucking moron. Next you're gonna say you have no idea what Auschwitz is. Are you even aware there was a such thing as the Holocaust???? 6 million people were killed... You're not a big history buff huh??? IDIOT

  • @RKTKT87 hahaha you're fucking numb

  • @RKTKT87 You really seem to be offended by my ignorance of one term. I enjoy history, but is it really relevant that I know the name of each concentration camp? lol

  • @pikajesus Yes, because that and Auschwitz were the two that most people SHOULD know about :|

  • @anelson96 Blame the school system?

  • @pikajesus I blame cross-breading with moose.

  • @pikajesus dumbass

  • @pikajesus the hell man what your laughing about is one of the most evil acts in human history. the mass extermination of 9 million people for who they were. dachau was one of the many camps involved in the holocaust the fact your laughing bout it aint right man

  • I am a land lord and i take much offense to this song. Im not really a land lord so fuck you

  • @tylerfish1000 fuck off pussy

    

  • @TheTeamMinority Wow, it was a joke you ass.

  • @tylerfish1000 well then i say my reply was a joke haha sorry i though you were being serious

  • So, America is bad indeed.

    Though I can't say European countries are much better...

    Except they tend to have better education systems.

    Fuck the countries, lets lynch the landlords =P.

    I'm American, btw.

  • @shortlived02 you always go live in china, tell me how that works out. jk

  • Lets lynch the landlords, NOW!

  • I love the surf-rock sound to this, especially the guitar solo. But the main riff is lifted from another song... I can't remember which.

  • 1 person lives at home

  • @SICK2210 1 person failed to get a thumbs up

  • I guess the bass riff is sort of lifted from ricky nelson's version of summertime, just like what deep purple and blue magoos did.

  • I am a landlord, and I find this hilarious.

  • having landlord problems Now this is my next step!

  • Dude this is a great album

  • One of the greatest debut albums of all time, yeah it's great punk, it also rocks like crazy. No BS, goes straight to the gut and the brain. Why no decent groups like this around now? Everybody is out for the cash, no concern for the big picture anymore.

  • It doesn't get much better than this! Awesome punk song, loved it since the first time I heard it.

  • "The way the US propaganda machine is run is half Walt Disney, Half Joseph Goebbels."

    -Jello Biafra

  • @IAmTheUnknownPunk I love that one.

  • Boycott rent!

  • let´s lynch the landlord MAAN!... it´s stuck in my head..

  • Im a landlord- shhhhhhurely theyre not serious?

  • This song speaks to me....it's telling me how to deal with my shitty landlord! I think I will have a good old fashioned lynching tonight

  • So will the Dead Kennedys come back and re-write it to change it to "let's lynch the criminal Wall Street Banker trying to foreclose my house so he can have his million dollar bonus while I can't fucking feed my family?"

  • groovy as fuck

  • yes, let's

  • putain!!!ça fait du bien!!!remember 20 years ago!!! great album!!!

  • Heh, that's what I always thought about when I lived in an apartment, damn landlord not lettling me play my music loud or even turning the heat when it got cold, cheap bastard.

  • simpaye

  • my landlord just told me to turn my music down..no bull shyat ! lolFUCK 'EM!!

  • Play this song when your landlord comes by and you'll live there for free!

  • Comment removed

  • Nice little surf-guitar solo by East Bay Ray here.

  • one person was the landlord

  • The one person that disliked this video is a landlord

  • @InsomniacAlex Mimes, on the other hand, probably love the DKs. Don't forget Jello got his start as a mime in Boulder.

    In visible box! Woot!

  • @InsomniacAlex which is probly maggotsoldier666

  • @InsomniacAlex hahahaha

  • @InsomniacAlex And 7 months later, the landlord is still the only disliker. I'm glad they lynched that fucker.

  • @InsomniacAlex Either that or a cockroach

  • fuck shitty landlords.

    making you pay rent in a place where the walls are uneven, windows broken, no heat or air, fucking roaches, then say i can't have a cat.

    LETS LYNCH THE LANDLORD!

  • every time i move this is the song i listen to as my new landlord tells me all my new restrictions

    so lets lynch the land lord man!

  • i remember my roomate playing this, while our slumlord vacuumed our messy punkhouse, because he wanted it to be presentable, haha the tables turned for a brief instance

  • I love the bouncy bass in this song. Like singing Happy Fucking Birthday.

  • Q. What's a hundred landlords at the bottom of the ocean?

    A. A good start!

  • oh and the landlord is parked outside my bedroom slamming her door. She does this all night during dawn and dusk and only at dawn and dusk every time she comes. I'm blaring this song out loud right now. Thanks Jello for giving me a sense of humor in this ugly situation.

  • My landlord is over right now.........she's one of those whacked out psycho ones.....she spent $1000 on dirt DIRT for landscaping

    when water is leaking through the windows,

    the fire place doesn't work the closets are fucked up ect. She's staying here for a while in the basement

  • @BluntObject1234 gotta hate those landlords

  • Brings back memories. Back when punk was new to me. It was 2006 but it was all new to me. Ah, memories :)

  • I agree with some of the posters here. Jello randomly mixes political satire into his lyrics so sometimes it's hard to tell what he's actually advocating. For instance the song I Kill Children is obviously not intended to advocate killing children but to make a mockery of the sick war mongering bastards who do. With this song I always felt like he was kind of mocking both the renter and the rentee. And that's not even a biased opinion as I am an Anti-Capitalist and anti-rent in general.

  • @Pi11z3ury This is a song about Squatting Pi11z3ury! (:

  • This is one of the catchiest songs ever. Plus the main riff sounds like one of the riffs in MTV Get Off The Air.

  • I haven't heard this album for about 15 years, thanks for posting. I'm gonna buy it again on cd. Jello Biafra is one of my heroes. A real fucking patriot. I'm not a Yank but that guy gives a shit more than the fuckers you vote for.]

  • Are you saying that Jello Biafra is patriotic?

  • Until you live here you have no idea how right you are. And its been getting worse and worse year by year for these last fifteen or so.

  • @Whistlechops and what do you mean by (iam not a yank)because this yank and the past yanks are and always will be the freedom fighters of this country not cry baby liberals that want everything to go there crybaby ways ITS WHATS GOOD FOR ALL AND RIGHT FOR ALL not trying to sound like a dick but yanks did what was right in first place its the ppl after there time that screwed it all up

  • @Whistlechops BiAFRA IN 2012!

  • @Whistlechops You British fuck how dare you comment, youre country is shit without america, think about your three favorite acivities, odds are we fucking invented that shit, and btw your little whore of a new princess or what the fuck ever is disgusting as fuck looking. . . we won the war bitch ass nigga

  • @sld5073 I think you're mad.
