  • Watch your comment get taken off by this corrupt load of cnts!

  • Great vid. And more applicable today than ever!

  • @outlander271 You wanna see how applicable it will be next year!!

  • @onemaddog100 Hello. Is that the Old Bill? Ah good, I'd like to grass somebody up please. Apparently something big is gonna go down next year, like more looting and stuff, and I think you should stop hassling OAPs for not paying their council tax or taking a piece of wood from a forest for their dog and get on the case. You should increase your stocks of rubber bullets and water cannons and stop standing around like pillocks while decent people get rooked by waste of space hoodies.

  • This is not Riding Giants

  • Just take a look at this video " The death of Mark Foo", who was a big wave surfer died in 1994 in Maverick, California.

  • Frag forgot what good music we had back in the 70s

  • some shit is never over back door ill see u soon im sure back door

  • honestly cant get enough of this song. punks not dead brought me here. i searched high and low to find the intro song to it and it was this

  • classic track . history repeating. england 1979 , 1980's , summer - 2011. same old divisions. best from fellow subvert channel.

  • hey geoffdoor i think u got the wrong name should b back door,well smashed in though, u must have spend a lot of time on ur knees to have such a bad attitude,cya twat

  • Great reconstructed video – favourited.

  • I WAS INTO PUNK WHEN I WAS A KID. JUST PUT ON TWO STONE IN WEIGHT AND JUST HAD A THOUGHT............. MAYBE IF I PUT ON ALL THE OLD PUNK RECORDS AND POGO LIKE I USED TO AT CONCERTS. BET I WILL LOOSE WEIGHT IN NO TIME LOL GOTTA BE BETTER THAN DRAGGING MYSELF TO GYM !

  • i just bin reading wot this cunt said ,id love to put a bat thro his fkin skull,wot a piece of shit if hes listeneng i can arrange to give him details cause id love to smash and bury him i got room out back

  • Brilliant. Have you heard Henry Rollins spoken word piece before he did the reunion/fundraiser. He fucking loved these guys.

  • WITH ANXIETY!

  • Back in the day Brilliance !!! RIP Malcolm !!!

  • THIS IS MY ALL-TIME FAVE PUNK RECORD..WHO ELSE OF YOU WOULD AGREE & IF NOT, WHICH WOULD YOU SELECT ???

  • A BRILLIANT RECORD AND WELL-CREATED VIDEO, WHICH FITS PERFECTLY. Why all the comments from people regarding politics, racism, etc, shouldn't everybody just enjoy t' music and instead get at ALL the politicians who create riots, etc. ????? I love the faces Malcolm Owen pulls when he's singing-very expressive... R.I.P, MATE

  • Comment removed

  • Not been a band that could lace these eras boots maybe thats why were still listening to Ruts,Clash,SLF,,Sham 69 etc etc where are these new bands? I saw 2 supports with Vice Sqaud and Sham in last few weeks out 5 bands their was 1 alright rest truly terrible, when youre 40 and was their at time fair play but its a ego trip and the music was crap..So thats bullshit,no bands got a second album in them even if first was good these days.

  • SAVE OUR PUNK SCENE, GO OUT TO A GIG OF NEW BANDS ON A NIGHT WHEN AN OLD PAY-TO-PLAY REFORMED BAND IS PLAYING SO THAT THE PROMOTERS UNDERSTAND THAT THEY CANT TURN PUNK INTO AN ANTIQUE STYLE WHEN SO MANY NEW BANDS WANT A CHANCE BUT THE SAME PROMOTERS WONT BOOK THEM, THEY WONT PUT NEW BANDS ON AS SUPPORT FOR OLD OR EVEN LET OLD BANDS PICK A NEW BAND FOR SUPPORT OFTEN. i DONT GO TO REFORM GIGS ANYMORE, DO THE SAME AND SAVE PUNK, WHILE AT THE SAME TIME TELLING THE PROMOTERS TO BUCK UP OR FUCK OFF.

  • It's good!!

  • That should have said bought his old drum kit,

  • Lived 60 seconds away from the RUT ROW. The place they used to Live in Hayes Middx. Met the drummer dude a couple of times when I was learning to play drums. But his old kit of his from his next door nieghbour who was in my class at school. Rock on the late 70's and early 80's. So much fucked up energy! The song is brilliant and the video capturrs the atmosphere of the times!

  • Great song!

  • 9 people live in Babylon?

  • Excellent. Great job.

  • One of my favs!

  • @0151TheKid Get a grip you nonsensical moron.

  • @BeefheartCake I agree about Cameron in a sense as I just generally do not like the tories/right wing, but you have got to admire the fact that he supports gay marriage. I mean some places in America don't allow that, and they are meant to be "The Land Of The Free" and all that.

  • @BoyWithBlackWings07 Most homogenous northern europeans support gay marraige, so what?unless they are primitive, small dicked, impotent homophobes looking for someone to blame for failing .

  • sorry cock suckers! me and the boys and many more of the west london boys followed these boys when they were playing in southall, acton,.kensington ,fulham and many many places before they became pop ular! but maybe we are just old and stuff!

  • Comment removed

  • i remember 1980

  • the poor guy died of heroin addiction !! listen to the words of !! LOVE IN VEIN !!!

  • Ha Ha the gavvers used to have sirens that were bells. Classic sounds my friend. Babylon is burning and we shall burn with anexity (lol at my spelling) . . . .

  • omg im related to the long-haired guy PAUL FOX

    

  • I'm an old git from way back then but is there anything nowadays that can touch this for real passion and mood of the day?

    Don't steal brothers and sisters, take to the streets and just sit there.

    Let THEM do the violence as you protest civilly.

  • @barnowl01292 yeah... well said ....

  • @barnowl01292 Good post and right but the power have learnt, now they would beat the shit out of Gandhi!

  • fits whats happening in the world at the moment. great song

  • @KrashnyPloshad7 I empathise with your Southall job center experience. I've had similar in Hayes and it must be the same elsewhere. The capitalist system attacks the people and is surprised when people fight back.

    BTW Most of the jobs in the job centre are invented and don't really exist - they are there for governmental statistical purposes to "prove" the laziness of the unemployed.

  • Loved The Ruts, met Malcolm Owen many years ago, he was a real gent, devasted when he passed on xx

  • The Ruts are so underrated. If I hadn't bought this one punk comp as a young teen I would never have discovered them. Punk rock? Sock puppets? Watch the video on my channel.

  • VERY VERY POWERFUL RECORDING AND ALWAYS WILL BE :) :) :)

  • great rock track good very good

  • i luv this song. i would've luv to have heard nirvana do this. the guits , bass and drums remind me of nirvana so much

  • White people who were poor rioted too..Dont believe propaganda from Reich Ministery..C Mon people its 2011 and its going back the way -Divide & Rule you do their job for them.. (A) NOT GREED.

  • Its not Punk? Are you mental its Rock funny that, i thought Jon Bon Jovi was rock..Punk 100% Punk anthem live with it.

  • @krashnyploshad6 WISE WORDS , WELL SAID .

  • 1979 and it still a relevant message, who the fuck said punk was a phase!

  • @llancynfelyn yep..true dat..still nothing to compete..I'm still waiting for someone to say it in 2011

  • @llancynfelyn

     thats not punk , it's rock , plain and simple .

  • @SuperPatrick777 Rock!!! you need get your head right mate, this is punk pure and simple.

  • @llancynfelyn

    bull

  • Love the mix you made. ^^

  • Cracking song....our band does this one and it goes down a storm every time! As for the riots at a risk of being labelled as 'inflammatory' yes most of the people arrested following the looting were black,but then there is a high amount of black people living in those areas. Some of them have never had bugger all so you can't misunderstand why they did what they did..but the people that were arrested that were educated, employed and well paid should do double the bird, in my opinion.

  • Divide & Conquer its about Class not colour always has been..As for so called "Riots" wernt about better social housing or wages or price cuts in necessaties it was greed and nothing new

    Marx - 'lumpenproletariat.' The looters just want to join the consumerist dream which has been shoved down their throats since DAY ONE.

  • @DelStrainComedy I agree.......as Ray davies said - Reality: A false perception

  • top band should have been big

  • R.I.P Malcolm Owen and Paul Fox ... Gone but never forgotten :( x

  • Anxiety

  • @:Geoffdoor:They should throw racist cunts like you out of England,You and your like the BNP and the EDL.You should all be sent out on to an island so you can tear the shit out of each other.USELESS BASTARDS!!!

  • @Geoffdoor:Your kind are typical of the upcoming fall season.Its when the nuts start falling from the trees

  • Blimey. Lots of anger right here...threats, insults, racist comments.....y'all need to check yourselves. If you want any clues as to why "this country's so fucked" you need only look into your own eyes for a second. Apparantly, they're the windows to your grubby little soul.

  • INNIT!!!

  • @geoffdoor Good to see a well-reasoned argument, clearly set out in faultless English. Problem is, you're probably too stupid to understand irony, so here it is in language you might just understand: YOU ARE A TWAT. There. Was that easy enough for you?

  • @lotascott you ever call me a twat again i'll smash fuck outta of you in front of your wife your girlfriend mom and dad kids i'll smash fuck outta of you up and down the street all day long i wont give a fuck i'll smash fuck outta of you

  • @geoffdoor OK, here goes: you're a twat. I await your reasoned and no doubt impeccably-phrased response with interest.

  • @lotascott ahahahahahahahaha you are my new favourite person on youtube xD

  • @geoffdoor

    bring it fucker

    i will be waiting with a fucking baseball bat to knock the fucking useless lump of shit that you call a brain out of your eyes

    you thick cunt

  • @geoffdoor wow you're one incredible dumbass

  • @geoffdoor you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you wanna hear the remix of this song? It goes a little bit like this: you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat you're a twat!!!

  • @geoffdoor if you don't like being called a twat... can I call you a kunt?

  • @bionicbela yeah if it makes you feel any better - but dude all this was done months ago it was good laugh in the summer of 2011 when the jig boos were running riot its great there gonna get shoot to kill - yeah so its all a bit over and late mate sorry -

  • @geoffdoor hah... but you my dear, can take solace in the fact that, you are, were, and will always be an ignorant kunt

  • @lotascott i couuldent b fucked to read what ur argument was but this song goes back to my roots an i love a man who knows how to use the word twat whith meaning well done brother you impressed me i normally am a bit more abrupt but you got what it takes nuff respect

  • @oldbathtub1950 Great, thanks man. The comment @geoffdoor followed a long racist rant from him, something my RAR upbringing just wouldn't put up with. People like him need to be hounded from Youtube.

  • @oldbathtub1950 absolute respect to u brother ive no time for fukin racists fuck the lot of them im a big crass fan and it seems white power is trying to convert there message lately what a load of shit,stupid kids who dont know what the music is all about ,babylon thats a rasta phrase for white society do these cunts know nothing they need to shut the fuck up cause they know nothing,i just dont like things being twisted,take care my freind and fuck all those TWATS who know shit

  • @oldbathtub1950 ive not been on u tube long but believe me im doing my best to piss off all those racist fuckers im a old punk turn reggae man an i love fuckin with these assoles,white power fuck u an your mamma to

  • @geoffdoor Im half black, not that im excusing anything, but my surname is Kingdom, so like the aussies say, "get a dog upya"

  • @TwoDogsX2 get a dog upya WHY knowing your sort you would eat the dog HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA BLACK CANIBAL MAN EAT MY DOG UPYA - what a silly wog you are

  • @geoffdoor you ignorant cunt fuck off and die

  • Comment removed

  • @geoffdoor your not wrong and i agree but never discriminate someone for the colour of their skin hair eyes weight orr religion though the religious ones are crazy

  • @geoffdoor You are so wrong there were plenty of white middle class people arrested for the riots as well as there being plenty of white gangs in London. You are so consumed with hate that you show your ignorance to the world. Absolutely pathetic.

  • @OrpheusIsThe1 ye`h but their were a lot of jigga boos jigga boos - there's a woman kidnapped in kenya her husband is dead oh whose to blame fucking jigga boo planet of the apes - absolutely spot on

  • @geoffdoor '...fucking jigga boo planet of the apes'? Lotta anger, mate. Sounds like you've had some bad experiences of our black brothers. Well, if you dared show your face to me one day, you'd have some bad experiences of this white one too.

  • @lotascott you ve got me all wrong mate my mate dan is black and its a term of irony scotto mate and it was just bad timing at the time of the riots you need to realize that scotto mate there's no need to say il have some bad experience of white one too - are you like a jiggaboo lover or summit scotto mate

  • Chavs and the rioters are scum. However our so called rulers are no better. Whether it is MPs with their expenses, phone hacking or the rich (be they companies or individuals) avoiding taxes while making vast amounts of money. The message the elite send out to the people in general and the young in particular is take all you can get while you can. No wonder this country is f'ked!

  • Thatcher was in two years befor the Brixton Riots Started, then Poll tax riots , the travellers getting beaten up,Miners Strike cameron only one year, sad they never listen, F**king tory Elite, just really sad!

  • Cracking stuff, and great work with the video editing. Cant help noticing a couple of people having trouble with the caps lock though...drop me a line, I might be able to help.

  • Excellent video, lets take it to number 1

  • Thumbs up if you come here because of the riots

  • @0151TheKid NO I CAME HERE BECAUSE I HAVEN'T HEARD THIS IN YEARS AND I REMEMBER IT FROM THE FIRST TIME ROUND. WHY DO YO NEED A PATHETIC EXCUSE LIKE THE RIOTS TO LISTEN TO THIS???

  • EAT THE RICH

  • Buy this on i-tunes NOW & get it to number 1!

  • Nice work on the vid dude! Just posted on my FB quite appropriate for the current situation...

  • Nice work on the vid dude! Just posted on my FB quite appropriate for the current situation...

  • This track comes to mind now.

  • wow, prophetic

  • This is great, the soundtrack of the past - and sadly the soundtrack of today.

  • 33 years old this tune???? rerelease!

  • Tune....

    

  • you've done a cracking job with the vid

  • simply awesome

  • SEX MUSIX

  • Hi!J'ai 49 ans et quand j'écoute cà j'ai l'impression d'avoir toujours 20 ans....Pas une ride trop top,m^me le son est puissant.......bye bye de France

  • @ wetard101, agree to a point.But what should definately never happen to any punk style/band, is that it should never be watered down-homogenised and neatly packaged to kids-teens, with lyrics that only contain about the same socially aware content and depth as say Blink 182 or Britney Spears...Whatever style of punk it is, keep it underground, and out of the corruptive money making clutches of big business and flashy hollywood type producers.

  • Punks a state of mind created out of a need for unity and separation from mainstream and the counterculture...Trying and fighting about the definition of punk and what punk is and basing reasoning off of musical preference is foolish and goes against everything that the punk mindset and way of life is and stands for. If you like the music, cool. If not, cool. But punks something that comes from the heart and shouldn't be turned into a contest for who's "more punk" and whatnot.

  • beamenace2. bloody hell. love this track. didnt know that though about the singer committing suicide in 1980. jesus. Always put this on at a absh. Quality song!

  • had a pogo at this as well!!!. 

  • Love this track and the band, shame the singer committed suicide on the 14th July 1980 on what would have been my 15th birthday but his legacy on to this day.....

  • good vid dude to a great song.

  • I'm 48!!! Shit...!! This son in my top twenty...will be playing it on my 50th....

  • Im 46, so this was it in my era, the absolute bollocks of a song. Loved it then, Love it now :)  Thanks pondscum77

  • absolutely Brill !! They were fantastic then, nothing's changed - what a band!! Nothing comes close, 'cos they meant it!!

    Cheers

    Alan

  • suppose greenday are ok for today but not a patch on the real punk bands

  • @paulinesmith44 greenday punk ? x factor shite

  • @paulinesmith44 that was my point for today's plastic bands greenday are probably ok but manufactured totally .

  • Nice work, Pondscum

  • the "messing around" was well worth it in my opinion - nice work!!

  • the world is at a loss

  • dem biggah dan big !!! maximal RASpect !!!

  • fantastic .saw them a few times in the late 70s.its a shame they could have been massive.

  • Babylon's Burning - The Ruts [Rotherhithe, England] - 1979 - "AMG pick. Their BEST known. A very POWERFUL Obvious 'Clash' influenced punk rocker." - Something That I Said (The Best Of The Ruts) (EMI Gold)-1995.

    NOTE: One of my better Punk band finds from this period.

    Also check out these 5 star songs: In A Rut, S.U.S.

    With their unique blend of raucous punk rock laced with reggae and dub, the Ruts were one of the most exciting bands to emerge from Britain's late-'70s scene.

  • loved the whole album played it until it didnt play

  • why is this never in the VH1 music of the decade countdowns?...oh it was the only good thing about '79/'80

  • Really good video and fantastic song.

  • Wow!

  • Wow... this is a great video.. i love it..

    you manage to get a feeling from the 70's..

    And.. the song is great.. thanks for shearing...

  • wow people actually took the time to hit the dislike button...thats sad

  • Great song and video.

  • grubby English folk from the punk era........ nasty, brutish and short

  • @NowMyPoundsHaveRunOu You mean awesome right?

  • The old ones are sooooooo much better

  • sounds as awesome today as it did all those years ago.love it.

  • Excellent vid pondscum. Love it!

  • just pure energy

  • great job pondscum, thanks

  • great

  • Pondscum, great vid u put together here. The Ruts were my favourite punk band, seeing them three times I loved these guys and still do. I've recently heard that they have now all passed away now. Long live The Ruts!!!

  • Would have thought it was the clash until the drums fills gave it away, then compositionally and lyrically the difference became more apparent as the song "went on". The singer means it right?

  • RIP Malcolm x

  • @xxjsp It wasn't Malcolm X, it was Malcolm Owen. (Jus' sayin')

  • Good good job

  • great vid ,does justice to the mighty ruts ,well done ,u deserve a pat on the back ,excellent .

  • Nice job. Great song.

  • brilliant music still stands test of time

  • Nicely said, from the CRACK album which you both enjoyed so much in those days, sealed with a HOOOOOOOOTTTTT chocolate.

  • great punk!

  • Proper punk and very much of its time; remember back then there were race riots up and down the land and revolution was in the air ...

  • u forget how good this is.top band

  • they captured what it was to be angry and impotent like nobody else ever ahead before or ever will again perhaps so there

  • still good hun

  • wicked music

  • where have all the good times gone ... f*cking great music ... i'll never forget this great song ;)

  • they just dont make them like that any more.

  • Really good vid for one of the greatest songs ever.

  • I bought this when it came out and have never ever tired of it.

    Pure punk anthem that still holds up today!

  • Was 15 years old when I herd this. Was in Scarborough uk ( yorkshire sea side town )

    Just had to go buy the single straight away

    And still got it.

    This is proper Punk Rock not that American

    Shit like green day that think they are punks

  • Yeah, because there totally isn't any shitty pop punk from the UK.

  • @TheDaveVenturaShow YE GREEN DAY PLASTIC CORPRATE PUNKS HATE IT WAKE ME UP WHEN SEPTEMBER COMES NO WAKE ME UP WHEN GREEN DAY ARE NO MORE

  • @GAREMPOTS Just because u don't like greenday , don't make out that they are not part the punk scene , cause they did more for it then you ever would.

  • @GAREMPOTS Just because u don't like greenday , don't make out that they are not part of the punk scene , cause they did more for it then you ever would.

  • @GAREMPOTS ye really maybe im no big star but i write produce my own music and make my own videos all i have is digital 8 track and a few instruments thats punk do it yourself be yourself and most of all dont dress like a punk

  • @GAREMPOTS Everyone feels that Green Day betrayed their fans but you have to realize, they've gotten older, gotten married and had children. With that a lot of the hate goes away and they've mellowed out and are worried about bigger things than what they were at 20. Bands change and you have to deal with it instead of calling people sell outs.

  • @GAREMPOTS You obviously haven't heard their first two albums Kerplunk and 39/Smooth, text book punk so you can't talk shit.

  • @btcc11 who cares are tey as good as the ruts pistols clash sham 69 ,slf no so go away with your crap green gay

  • @GAREMPOTS I think they are!
