L7 - The Masses Are Asses

[0820Simon]

real grunge bands should return and kick asses!! the World is full of garbage and liars. L7 foreverrr!!

[MegaMiketheone]

I am assuming that this song is talking about that fat guy lindsay lohan

[everythingstakensux]

@MegaMiketheone lol



[WhitesAwaken]

no need to insults asses..the masses are complete donkeys..no offense to donkeys either,

[donniedoomsii]

Truest song ever sung.

[saucypup76]

if she threw her tampon at me i would never wash again

[whpriol1]

Sorry Courtney Love. You have nothing on L7.

[gypsygirl731]

I think it was a prank nto a real used one just one stuffed down there not inside her ew .. how gross.. but it made a huge point wow i wouldnt do it if i was her but eh it had impact . this band isnt for everyone

[Morthund]

a "help keep you sane" song whenever you have to go through the city with all the fuckers in a hurry and advertising and headlines and weekly specials and so on

just repeat the song again and again until your up in the pot-filled hills again, thats what this early 90's surviver does

[Ratt2004]

Eat my used tampon f**kers!!!!! Best quote from a concert ever!

[freddytherubberducky]

A reference to the tampon story is on every top comments of this band.

[cjwKILLEDcool]

@freddytherubberducky 'Cos it's funny as fuck, dude.

[TheHydraWomanRules]

@cjwKILLEDcool I so wish someone would have caught it in with their teeth :) Sorry, that was the menopause talking, I so need an editor...wait a minute, I'm not sorry.

[TheHydraWomanRules]

@cjwKILLEDcool Wouldn't it be so funny if someone would have caught it with their teeth? LOL ahahahahahaha

[donwantstobesedated]

One of my favorite L7 songs. So good.

[psykoman696]

i love this song. L7 is an amazing band!!!

[MsCat130]

This song now is the soundtrack for my attitude towards all the wankers that i come accross in every day life. To all my ex bosses who treated me like shite, all the so called friends(past and present) who think i'm an idiot and i listen to their bullshit, to everyone who has ever tried(and failed) to put me down and make me feel like shit. Fuck you!

[MsIhatethiscrap]

THE TRUTH BEHIND THE SONG< haha i asked them about it when i saw them a long time ago- search this world wide web . nmcservices . net/youareaslave . html

[skulldrix]

I dedicate this song to all you sexist assholes who think feminism is a joke and are constantly getting pissed off when you see me smoking.

Pro-Feminism!

Pro-Smoking!

[JustSiouxMe]

@skulldrix could I possibly add 1

All the morons who think being a feminist is all about man hating and double standards.

[fracoghlan]

the maaaaaaassessssssssss r assessssssssss rrbhdvv

[lv42daze]

I dedicate this to the birthers, the truthers, all teabaggers, Mr 4409 and last but not least Sarah Palin!. Without a doubt, this song was specifically crafted with y'all in mind!

[90JohnDoe]

@lv42daze There are puppets on the right. There are puppets on the left. But, who's that guy holding the puppets up? Spooky eh?

[fubar50cat]

@90JohnDoe

Really, about the puppets, that does not bother me, it is the guy that controls the puppetmaster that bothers me, that is spooky

[90JohnDoe]

@fubar50cat Word. I thought I said that... Lol. Hey, we better organize the rogues. Lone wolves aint gonna change shit here. Where you from?

[seniorjohnl]

@lv42daze I dedicate this song to the 47% of the US working age population that pay 0 in taxes, and vote Big D to keep it that way. Those who believe that McDonalds is to blame for the fact that they are fatasses, and that home cooking is more expensive that eating fast food. To those that think that corn-ethanol is a viable answer to fossil fuels. To those who think spending more than we take in is sustainable. To those who think that taxing the crap out of job providers will fix this mess.

[lv42daze]

@seniorjohnl uh-oh i feel a hillybilly economics lesson comin on. L7 ftw bud!

[seniorjohnl]

@lv42daze I thought you guys were against labeling people? We can agree on music I guess.

[lv42daze]

@seniorjohnl labeling/categorizing its human nature, but not trolling just tryin to make light. shame on me i should have kept it about the music in the first place.

[Chimeralucida]

congratulations Senior J, you are a textbook mass of ass

[seniorjohnl]

@Chimeralucida I feel it important that we all aspire to something in life, even if it be as petty as us massive asses applying common sense to fucked up situations. Unfortunately, the true masses think like you do, as such we are more or less screwed.

[SuspectCorner]

@seniorjohnl

Keep watching Fox 'news' - all the while never having it occur to you that you are among the very subjects of this song. O'Reilly, Hannity and other forms of ignorance are your bliss.

Exxon, JP Morgan Chase, and McDonalds can have you. I'll roll with the 99.

[seniorjohnl]

@SuspectCorner I can only tell you what I want. I want to work for a living, and be compensated fairly for my efforts. My job as well as all other "real" jobs tend to be provided by evil corporations. That's not something the government is capable or should be expected to provide. I don't want to pay for the mistakes made by a bunch of airhead art majors who feel entitled to compensation for their own mistakes in life. They aren't really the 99, more like the 10, the leach class. Fox news?

[Catsscratchfever]

I hate the fact that the top vots for this song relates to 1 fucken event .....and that no one has the shit to let the song play and listen....

[eDrifter1]

@Catsscratchfever

we are very sorry you feel this way.

you can haz a hug and cookie :-P

come out and play with meEEeee

[luispuente83]

this song is so true...

[MsVamp77]

That's bad ass!!

[jgberndt]

this song gets truer and truer each day

[omedicius]

am i the only one that wishes this would be on mtv just for the irony of it???

[Porcelina777]

@omedicius The thing is that no one would get it. They'll all agree without realizing they're one of those asses.

[omedicius]

@Porcelina777 thats true. but ill just laugh even harder cause they're proving the songs point

[hmw612]

this song says it all

[Vebinz]

They were one of the best bands of the genre when it came to mixing music and message-lyrics.

I don't really get the comparisons with Nirvana. Nirvana was okay, but LZ was rockin'!

[dantechick]

the older i get............the truer it is

[realself1]

I agree.

[BethLaura123x]

I've got this on my phone now (:

[MrDrProfessorJrMD]

Their music was a lot of fun.

[ColdWarCakes]

Love these babes..

[PopNRockGirl14]

haven't heard this in ages :) its so goood

[2RockStar1978]

Nirvana's music is good, but I like L7 alot more. Their music made a statement: "Mainstream society sucks ass".

[kanedasrifle]

Very open minded.

I suggest buying a sofa, and maybe a siberian tiger to swing around that big open space.

[Krissaaaaay]

@jreaper5000000 this song is dedicated to you then!!!

[imflyinn]

they fucking rock

[horrorjunkie92]

I hope L7 reunite. They were so great.

[pisartist]

The world is over run with masses of asses.

[macabregemini]

they were like the female nirvana

[boognish75]

i thought that was hole, lol, j/k

[trafficlights1]

nirvana couldnt possibly be as good as them :P

[macabregemini]

I have to admit, I listen to L7 a hell of a lot more than I do Nirvana, so I may agree with you there.

[crapswitch]

Fuck Nirvana.

[skippyguitar]

They're big!! love them..

[RHCristobal]

mmm... fuck you

[caio1969y]

When i bought this album in Galeria do Rock in Sao Paulo and played the first track I jumped out on the floor with the screams. This is one of the best albuns. Most of the guys like Bricks are Heavy and Smell the Magic. They are great. But I still preffer albuns like Slap Happy and The Beauty Process. Masses are asses is very funny! :D

[BrothuhRabbit]

'Hungry for Stink' is good too.

[Felix1178]

awesome i became an L7 fan back in 2006 when i was twelve:) i heard [pretend that were dead] on gta san andreas.

[CHICROCK5]

thats the same song that made me a fan

i dont remember exactly when

probably around 2006 as well :)

heard it on vh1

[budmotor]

the process, proces...

[green95chevy]

kickass song

can u post bitterwine

[SoulByrd69]

wwaaah i love this song.

[Krissaaaaay]

from the 1st time i heard this song it's been my life's motto... THE MASSES ARE ASSES! it makes perfect sense & has really helped me ignore some of the assy things people sometimes say or do... thanks L7

[ur124q]

@Krissaaaaay Damn right! It has been my motto for years and I just now heard this song for the first time. I'm very proud that I've never fit in with this frivolous scum!

[MsCat130]

@Krissaaaaay The day you finally realise that other assholes opinions don't matter is the day you start living, My motto is Don't give a fuck what the masses say or think about you, the only opinions that matter are the people you truely care about.

[Hammered001]

@MsCat130 Call it "mind over matter'. I don't mind, 'cause they don't matter!

[MsCat130]

@Hammered001 I love that!

[Krissaaaaay]

@MsCat130

Hmmmmm... yeah- that's kinda the exact same thing I said, so....??? 

[TheD3mac]

@Krissaaaaay ...right...no truer words have ever been said or sung

[klauspoppenhaus]

Any band that has a lead singer who will remove her tampon and throw it into a crowd of douchebags is alright with me. TESTIFY

[blacksuite1]

@klauspoppenhaus that is soo fucking gross. thats like me bustin a nut on the crowd.

[eDrifter1]

@klauspoppenhaus

i like your attitude :)

[everythingstakensux]

@klauspoppenhaus so rock'n'roll

[everythingstakensux]

@klauspoppenhaus right on!

[ZoraHalo]

@klauspoppenhaus, Amen and hallelujah to that! It was THE correct response to douchebaggery... we just don't get enough of that kind of thing in today's rock'n'roll, if you ask me. And yeah, no offense to donkeys. XD

[qwertybbqtong]

i always thunk it was the MASTERS are asses.. i fuckin love em ah?

[SoulfulSausages]

Ive been a massive L7 fan for over 15 yrs now and i just love thw lyrics in this!!I couldnt agree more! Awesome!

[TheLogicJunkie]

When did this song come out?

[joewm315]

I miss L7 (and the 90's) so much it makes my soul hurt. Thanks for posting this.

[noneperfection]

I just can't get enough of L7, they're the best. this song just proves it another time! never doubt that this band always will be the greatest!

[noneperfection]

I really think this song among all their songs has a message, needing to be heard. they are soo amazing and inspirational :D

[Anyu7378]

great comment, noneperfection! (and username). i LOVE songs with a message too.

[MarxistMarauder]

as long as the message is worth hearing, and although the lyrics could be considered typical teen aignst fare, I like them alot and kinda feel the same way.

[Anyu7378]

thanks, Marxist. Yeah, the masses are nothing but sheeple following corrupt leaders after considerable amount of brainwashing. People, if you truly want to know what's going on, copy this to your browser: "A Perfect Circle - Counting Bodies." My fav is the animated version, and of course, I'm the one always out of line... peace, andrea.

[ryankilleleagh]

yes i agree with all of you, this is real music. L7 forever

[kevpark21]

This is punk rock at it's finest

[gardenbabe09]

man! i love donita, she's my n°1 personal hero.

[Psytheslasher]

Yes! Awesome song.
