Fear - Mengele

[TIMOTHYSAARINEN]

Lee Ving was a great fucking singer.

[ManilaSyndicate]

Lee's fascination with the Third Reich comes in full fruition.

With his constant comments and bashing on homosexuality and his love for tight shirts and going on shirtless, one wonders whether Lee has something to hide. ( heh heh )

[TIMOTHYSAARINEN]

One of Fear's best songs. I always wished it was on an album. They finally recorded it for the "American Beer" album and they pussied out by changing the title and the lyrics. Very un-Fear-like. Still a great song, though. And no, I don't hate Jews, and I DO hate Nazis.

[flesh86]

Actually, the name of the song is 'Surgery'.

[Funerism]

@flesh86 No,this is the original version of the song."Mengele" is the title. It was changed to the less controversial "Surgery" when it was revised and recorded years later on the awful American Beer album. There was another great old Fear song called "Skinheads" which was redone on American Beer and given the stupid title "Beerheads".

[IdolInternational]

fuck I hate that little annoying host. but fear is awesome.

[hcjc57]

Ain't his son around 35 now?

[ElieWieselSuksDik]

i wish we had good honest doctors like the good Dr. Mengele around nowadays instead of the sick heeb doctors who inject ppl w hiv/aids.

Stop doing this, jews, its wrong !

[ReturnOfTheJosef]

@ElieWieselSuksDik Yes, these heeby geebies need to stop injecting people with aids.

[ElieWieselSuksDik]

@ReturnOfTheJosef

yeah, first the joos start the horrible holocaust and - not satisfied w that - they've decided to start a horrible epidemice. Just what is it these heebs hv against the world?

[GunsWillStopYou]

I saw F.E.A.R at the whisky one night in the eighties.

Fuckin lee was chucking quarters from the stage so hard people were ducking .

funny as all hell .

This band not only rates in my top ten all time best PUNK BANDs list.

But also the top ten out of countrol ASSHOLES list.

[mrfilmnoir68]

I dont think that they ever did a studio recording of this. I could be wrong.

[meeces13]

yeah they did. cept the lyrics are diff and its called "surgery". its on American Beer which came out in 2000

[Keolse69]

Leaves me speechless! Is he good or is he plain shit? I do not know!

[tommyd417]

More Beer!!!

I remember watching this show on late night tv---mid 80's??

shit, I'm getting old.

[justifieddamage88]

the song surgery is on american beer but that version doesnt say mengele , this is awesome , new wave theatre 1981

[daleks75]

what album is this song on???

[LeshaAnn]

@daleks75 - none, technically. But it does appear on a 2000 posthumous FEAR cd, with a name-change to "Surgery."

[digitalshark]

FEAR was all about genuine shock, and really dark and dirty humor. Plus they were freakin' tight as hell. I think Lee has one of the great punk voices, right up there with Jello, Cal and Nick Blinko. Thanks for posting this. I saw it ages ago on public access in NYC.

[ElieWieselSuksDik]

@digitalshark jews r liars

[punktothec]

dude i have the FEAR logo tattooed on my arm

big bold letters like from the record

[crustafarian]

Sounds like someone died while shitting vomit.

[RueOrKraehe]

wow that's crappy. O_o

Slayer does better.

[b00mhauer]

Slayer ain't got shit on FEAR. "The strongest band in the world... in the U.S".

[dwain182]

That is the dumbest thing I've read for a LONG while!

You comparing two very different styles of music!

That's like saying "Man! The Smashing Pumpkins are terrible live. I think The Grateful Dead does way better."

You just can't compare the two different styles of music.

[Mischa77]

Oh hell, yea. FEAR

[libertarian1]

for real fear records and other punk on vinyl 19-75-86 go to stoopidrec dot gemm dot c o m

[janitorbri]

what's the difference between a nun and a woman in a bathtub? the nun has hope in her soul....1234!

[lowslungbooty]

Lee Ving started making movies, then said or did something and I've not seen him in a long time. Who did he piss off?

[lustpunk]

Lee Ving tried really hard to piss everyone off.

[kookadams]

FEAR is punk rock in every true aspect of the term. They weren't fashionable and they didn't try to please anyone, Lee Ving knew what he was doing and he's a a fucking legend and anyone who says otherwise doesn't know shit.

[AmericanLeather]

Funny thing about Fear is that they actually were really talented and technical. Though they're banter was always so crazy, they were more known for being offensive. Cool video Thanks!

[peace0ff]

fear didn't give a shit about jews or anyone else.

fucks jews, israel, palestine, the middle east, arabs etc. etc.

lee's pretty much into his whiteness though.

[WellingtonKatz]

I've got American Beer.

[dvmp1]

Posers, late comers, I had a beer with Fear.

And Mengele is a slam on Ray Gun.

But, you would have had to been there. . .

[szukszuk]

does anyone have a studio recording of this? its on American Beer if anyone doeas coudldthey send me a copy? hobo_box77@hotmail.com

[chosenfro68]

Reminds me of the dead kennedys

[WellingtonKatz]

I wish they had recorded this one instead of Surgery. Awesome song by an awesome band.

[sgurshman]

thanks man, hilarious song, too bad the audio is even worse than the "new wave theatre" vhs used to be...strong tune, wish it had a studio recording, never found it even as a boot.

[ShotgunSinner97]

Thanks Kookadams, obviously not everyone bothers to look beyond the title...Still, as a Jew, I wish they hadn't used footage of the camps...It hurts to see it....

[pilotesseJ]

Yeah, great band, too bad some people don't get punk sarcasm. Too bad I'm still searching for a copy of American Beer.

[kookadams]

if you think FEAR was fascist then you can go fuck yourself. Lee Ving is a fucking genius and he knew what he was doing. fuck off!

[MrAnus]

It's fucking sarcasm from an incredibly accomplished punk band. Eat it!

[deathsounds]

Facists \m/

[kookadams]

fucking incredible band, and that song is called "surgery".

[MorayEel]

Great, great band. I'm pretty sure that song was done purely for shock value.

[jonathan223]

over-rated facists
