'crappy lyrics, my arse!!!!!

[babyduck1]

And you're a moron with a shit name.

[xNervousxBrainx]

@nigletgook "crappy lyrics"? Thats completely baffling to me. Are we even thinking of the same band?

[Evoken13]

FUCKING CHILLS !!!!!!Holy shit they are destroying. I wish they had come before I moved away from NYC

[mmarkanthony]

Well, I too saw the Amebix many times in the late 80's, I have their records and have lots of bootleg tapes. They were one of my top bands back then. The guy now playing the drums is awesome. Unlike many of the old fart Amebix commentators on here, the only thing that I have to bitch about is that there are still no UK dates. Come on !

[tailofthecomet]

they're playing in london 18th june I CANNAE WAIT!!!

[mmarkanthony]

Well, thanks for the tip off. I have been checking for tour dates every few weeks and the london date had slipped my attention. Thanks again, I will be looking forward to it.

Hi Madmax, Don't really get where you are coming from on this one. I saw Amebix in the 80's quite a few times and recall them being awesome, They look and sound preety awesome on this. My only regret is no dates in the UK...bastards!

[madmaxoftherails]

these videos are actually depressing, because they sounded so much cooler in their day. it sounds like they are trying to please a more modern crowd, and as a result, losing possibly all of their punk luster, and just being "a metal band".

[halemacepig]

But if you know anything about the history of the band, a metal band is what they really wanted to be. They even wrote a song for Motorhead which was turned down.

F****ing awesome - the sound quality we could only dream about in the 1980's - thanks so much for sharing this with those of us that saw 'em live in the UK, and only have rusty quality footage up until now...
