Anti-Flag The Modern Rome Burning (New Song)

[domydirtywork196]

They didn't say Detroit because its already burnt lol

[PSNheroofhonor]

Top Lyrics, and powerful message presented on a wicked cool plate of punk rock. That's what musics all about, fuck mainstream.

[countingdown27]

Occupy the World

[radicalroots87]

anti-flag always has a powerful message...hence them being better than most punk bands now

[1blackdeath51501]

Life, Liberty, and property, the freeest you can possilby be is to be an individual and having a Republic that recongnizes these rights, YOU are in control of your life.

[RAPunkforeverGD]

National Guard banner ad, sigh.

[Dalehansen87]

Needs to available on mobile devises.

[AvatarRoku1]

Why did you cut the intro?

[sarvelaj]

I'm all for war...i would rather die in the hands of another human than a fucking alien or zombie. O_o

[chambasa2006]

This song is so fucking relevant to today's society. Just as rome fell, our "empire" will fall as well.

[countingdown27]

@chambasa2006 Ok, when you say Modern Rome or New Babylon, you mean the United States. This isn't about Rome. This is about the UNAVOIDABLE fall of the greatest empire on earth.

[SjoerdReligion]

@wire80op Just go to a country that has been more socialist past fifty years. (pick an Scandinavian country)

There's no waiting in pine for year bread there (ok, at the checkout maybe)

Enjoy your affordable healthcare, education and humanity.

Just look at the researches of happiness per country, the more socialist countries dominate the top.

[chambasa2006]

@SjoerdReligion yes

[eviera2003]

ES TA DE CHIDO

[MyWiccan]

i like this song!

[smbrennan89]

let it. 

[miakissadams]

Have an awsome 2011, great tunes, you guys kick butt and are for the cause....

[miakissadams]

Have an awsome 2011, great tunes, you guys kick butt and are for the cause....

[WhatTheHeckAnimation]

Call It What You Want. It Kicks Ass.

[llGuitarll]

:) They're socialist. Socialism is not the same . Communism has got more totalitarism. I'm socialist but don't like communism.

[sargantfrosty]

@llGuitarll THANK YOU.

Someone who knows the difference. Lol. 

[wire80op]

@llGuitarll Justin Sane was on Sirius's faction and played a song that said Karl Marx "KARL MARX AND HISTORY" Lyricswas a free thinker. Justin is a communist. There for an asshole!

[llGuitarll]

@wire80op I like Marx very much. Believe or not. He is for me like a Che Guevara for Guevarists. But I'll stay with Socialism. Of course people who thought that USSR was communist are wrong. They were Totalitarists. BTW: That song is awesome.

[SidRenton]

Anti-Flag isn't communist, they're punk!

[maraudingchimpanzee]

@SidRenton

Communism and punk are not mutually exclusive.

[samusDMI]

anti-flag is the best!!!

[VVilliam360]

I'm a faggot. Do you agree?

[TheRevolutionstarter]

@VVilliam360 Trying to get likes on ur comment arent you? Thats pretty funny tho :P

[tylerbate420]

law is good, but this is lawlessness, it's not about justice anymore it's about money, arrested for a joint? while a guy who kidnapps and rapes a girl in california gets off on misdamenor statutory rape??i got a misdemeanor for .8 of pot, does that make me as bad as a rapeist? guess it does in the eyes of the "law" but this song makes perfect sense, democracies only make 200 years throughout history, and this isn't democracy anymore, this is socialism(communism)GOODBYEAME­RICAFUCKYOUAMERICA

[HeroicSoviet]

@tylerbate420 And all Hail the USSR

[tylerbate420]

@HeroicSoviet no, fuck communism, even though this is basically communism, and that is bullshit, it works only for the fact that people are fucking sheep and can't act logical enough to be respectable in life, they expect life to be handed to them and arent willing to earn it in life....best thing that could happen to america is a depression like what our great grandparents went through

[HeroicSoviet]

@tylerbate420 If this was Communism, comrade, you would have been slapped for your incompitence by now. And maybe then you would do some research and know what you're talking about before you speak to me in such a manner. America? Communism? What drugs are you on? Face it, it is leading to Fascism, with the inbred racist retards, and the thugs who like to put caps in a cracker's ass. Fuck Communism? Fuck America, fuck CAPITALISM.

[chefshitpiece]

@HeroicSoviet Capitalism is like the gardner who focuses so much on the rose, he neglects the soil. Communism is like the gardner who till the soil so much he forgets each plant has certain distinct needs.

[wire80op]

@chefshitpiece You are right.

[chefshitpiece]

@wire80op Thanks man, I have so many pointless debates on youTube that it feels good to have someone appreciate something that I have to say. We have to start basing our economy on, at least as a STARTING POINT, on the system of nature, which has checks and balances. Google search ROYAL ISALND: WOLVES and MOOSE for a prime example of how nature maintains an equilibrium.

[maraudingchimpanzee]

@tylerbate420

Socialism is a form of Democracy (and there is no government in Communism), and America is one of the most anti-Socialist nations in the world in both its governance and its populace.

Oh and Anti-Flag is a Communist band. Cunt.

[xxxdirtyslutxxx]

@maraudingchimpanzee theyre not a communist band, theyre an anti facist band.

[maraudingchimpanzee]

@xxxdirtyslutxxx

And Anti-Capitalist.

Also very apparently Communist. I would say anarcho-Communist, but its sort of a redundant statement considering that the state is abolished in true Communism anyway.

[Rosehawka]

@maraudingchimpanzee communist?, hardly. learn history before throwing that world around,

[maraudingchimpanzee]

@Rosehawka I know the history of Communism. There has been no practical history of Communism, only theoretical history, for Communism has never been implemented.

Those who say that China and the Soviets represent Communism are just as accurate as those who say that altar boy raping priests represent Christianity.

[Rosehawka]

@maraudingchimpanzee you are right of course, sorry if i caused any offense, I just meant that in todays political spectrum, the communism of the 20thC has not been represented well, i.e.people don't trust it

But yes, communism is just a branch of the far side of the left wing scale, of which the band claim themselves to be, although it's never been successfully practiced for any length of time, technically in theory, (& if every person within it thought the same) it could work in a society

[maraudingchimpanzee]

@Rosehawka

I agree with that. I think that Communist ideals are good ideals, but the closest we will be able to achieve in several lifetimes of work will be Socialism.

[wire80op]

@maraudingchimpanzee Go live in a country that has had communism for the past 50 years. See how much you love waiting in line for bread.

[anarchyforus]

@tylerbate420 uhm we in holland are socialist and we have legal weed... so dont get ur statement

[Mikosch2]

There are a few lines missing at the end:

This is London burning.

This is Paris burning.

This is Berlin burning.

This is Athens burning. (It is literally!)

To be continued...

[pinkspiders33]

@Mikosch2 lol mean to laf at but trueeeee

[pgraham921]

Well of course there needs to be a law. But held and enforced by the people. When you have someone with higher power, they become ignorant and may perform police brutality and uncivil arrest.

[Bassmasta1222]

@pgraham921 you make a good point, but i mean are yo suggesting that every person take police training? Because i don't know about you but I'm not even close to equipped to enforce the Law, We need officers,

[Halozocker2000]

HELL YEAH is this great

[jizzsuker1200onass]

luv the music, hate the lyrics, u can't blame the government 4 everything, such as arresting ppl, that's the ppl's problem

[GodOfTheInternets]

You sound like a 13 year old with a typical statist mindset.

[jizzsuker1200onass]

o.k. i'm not thirteen and i'm not a statist but i do believe that the people have fucked things up really bad, and don't get me wrong the government has too but not so much as the people

[Halozocker2000]

@GodOfTheInternets

hey nothing against 13 year ol guys xD xD i ma 13 xD

sorry for the bad english i´m just a german boooy xD xD

[GodOfTheInternets]

@Halozocker2000

Du bist ein stereotypes 13-jährige... wirklich: "xD xD xD" Ich hasse emoticons weil ich keine 13-jährige bin.

[Halozocker2000]

@GodOfTheInternets

was sind nochmal emoticks xD xD sorry hab echt kanen plan xD xD abba wen du meinst xD xD xD

[GodOfTheInternets]

@Halozocker2000

Was meinst du? Emoticons (English) sind auch emoticons auf Deutsch, richtig?

[Halozocker2000]

@GodOfTheInternets ja schon bba was sin emotics weil ka weiss des auch nich xD xD

[coffeebandits]

Probably my 2nd fave song on this record, next to The Ink and The Quill!

[THEHERPESGOBLIN]

its missing the begining part that the best part of the song

[MylastDays]

mir mittlerweile etwas zu poppig....

[SomeRandomGuy005]

Ha, 4:20

[ScaryKidzScaringKidz]

Fuck i clikced on that and the song was over. Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!!! o well i get to listen to it again!

[Falubaz30000]

enjoi55enjoi wenn du anti flag magst müsstest du auch rise against mögen oder zebrahead

[enjoi55enjoi]

kennst einer so ähnliche bands ?

[DO16Z]

Auf deutschem Boden würde ich dir ZSK ans Herz legen, die sich sehr stark an Anti-Flag orientiert haben.

Other simular bands are NOFX, Bad Religion, Venerea, Satanic Surfers or Social Distortion. Perhaps you could like one of them ;)

[punkrocker828]

i like all of them :D

[ScaredKid321]

awesome song!!!

[hydrocarbondisaster]

I absolutely love this song

[Seyfe96]

modern rome burning is geil

[greensfriends]

awesome song but its so friggen true... its so sad...

[bigbaby182]

This band has one of the best bassists going. Their music might change slightly but they still have the same message and that's what this punk scene is about. The message.

[hammerhagen]

yeah right, their message is: we say that you should change the world, oh by the way we are making money with our "change" that's has nothing to do with punk. a real punk band play shows for free. sorry for my bad english.

[punkkonijn]

What's your point, cause I don't understand a fuck of what you say. I'm sorry.

[hammerhagen]

basicly i said that they're a good example for capitalism disguised behind some "punk message"

[Coremeister13]

so how are they supposed to make a living, they wouldnt be able to continue doing concerts unkless u want them to live in a van for their whole lives, and not eveyr message has to be about anti capitilism, theres more then jsu that and maybe u should listen to more then one song before saying thats there only other message besides you could change the world

[hammerhagen]

i've got die for the government, a new kind of army and the terror state. i listen to enough songs of them. they were good. i liked them. but look at them now. it sucks.

[Coremeister13]

there new album tat jsut came out was a return to their old stuff and bands change their stuff from time to time, so this was there experiwemtnal album and nwo theyre going back

[anarchoashley]

Coremeister13 - There is an clip of the Casualties in Mexico and they said almost the exact same thing... You still have to make a living.... Living in a squat isn't glamorous....

[ScaryKidzScaringKidz]

Dude, you and people that say that anti-flag sold out are so fuckin stupid. Who cares if they're music sounds different?! They don't wanna right the same shit over and over and over. Besides, they're looking at the bigger picture! Instead of helping the world by playing free concerts, they're supporting programs that help the world. We shouldn't let anti-flag do all the work. The fans are the ones that meet them half way by going to their concerts so they can do all these things. U damn hobo

[ScaryKidzScaringKidz]

Angry, young and poor doesn't mean anti-flag should play you a free concert. If you think anti-flag would actually use our money exclusively for themselves them you're just an ignorant bastard. Watch their interviews and you'll know what their true message is.

[hammerhagen]

please consider the possibility that they're liers and that they use all the money just for themselves. but let's writing these useless comments, we're older than fucking 14, aren't we?

[ScaryKidzScaringKidz]

well, why can't you consider that they're actually good people? U shouldn't call em sellouts if you just assume they take our money. I've done my research and I know where anti-flag stands.

[AnarchistSte]

and if you really got the measage you wouldn't call people hobos and give then more respect because yes they may have got themselves into the mess their not all of them and i bet they diserve a fiar chance at life again GIVE TO THE POOR YOU CAPITALIS PIECE OF CRAP!!!!!!!! you hypocritical dick head!!!

[ScaryKidzScaringKidz]

lol, i didn't mean anything against hobos... Dude, you seriously need to chill out. I don't have anything against homeless people... I was actually trying to use the word to make a point, but I guess it didn't work... Anyway, I donate turkey's at thanksgiving, I give my clothes to the kids at my mom's school, and I even helped serve at a thanksgiving banquet for the poor. I try to do my best. Anyway, we're all not perfect and Im sure you've said a racist comment here and there.Lets all chill

[AnarchistSte]

no i do not make rascist comments some white people tired tgo claim i was being rascist to blacks, i was not rascist and i have black friends that agree with me, today i stood up for multi-culteralism infact in my religious studies against rascist twats who claimed that the BNP are only trying to help british people and not turn us into rascist nazis! Though i will admit to laughing time to time at rascist jokes but no i don't make those comments...

[ScaryKidzScaringKidz]

Lol, i know ur not racist dude. All im trying to say is whether we laugh or say things like racist comments or dumb blonde stuff or the word retarded or gay, it doesn't mean we are actually prejudiced against those people. Just cause i used the word "hobo" doesn't mean i hate bums. Thats all I was trying to point out because im not a "hypocritical dick head" who doesnt "GIVE TO THE POOR" and im also not a "CAPITALIS PIECE OF CRAP!!!!!!!!" as you claimed before based on my words.

[ScaryKidzScaringKidz]

Soo in a nut shell... Just becaus you may laugh "time to time at racist jokes" it doesnt mean you are actually racist and just cause I said "damn hobo" it doesnt mean I don't give to the poor and that i hate them. Anyway, anti-flag is awesome!

[ScaredKid321]

dude u completely won tht arguement lol *gives thumbs up*

[MetalHead143]

They signed with that record label to get their message out to more people, and punk bands have to charge for shows just like any other bands, you try traveling the country or the world to get your message out without incoming money, and their "change" is still as punk as it was on their first album, "punk" is the search for freedom in a so-called "free" country, thats Anti-Flags message, is to find freedom, so stfu about them "selling out", your a douche that knows nothing about punk

[zacharybrown2003]

will everyone please shut up? eather you like anti-flag or you dont. the early punk bands sold out, thats why there was the hardcore punk movement. racism destroyed the hardcore movement thats how we got pop punk. have an appreciation for punk rock people.

[punkkonijn]

I hate racists!

[AnarchistSte]

wow me too!

[MaxMaulwurf1]

right.

[LostDays41]

i hope one day in this world will be no more War ...but is impossible :(

[456nto]

Well mankind best try destroy war before war destroys mankind.

[maraudingchimpanzee]

LET IT BUUUUUUUURN!

[rakim282828]

But remenber this name RAkim Calderon Bernal because i hope to fuck the modern ROme

[rakim282828]

IRak

You want more evidence , i dont tell you more because i dont know how to exprese well in this langues.

[BshortJLS]

I'll believe you all if you give me legit evedince.

[rakim282828]

usa is an opresive empire more reason you want

[BshortJLS]

Give evidence dumbass!

[maraudingchimpanzee]

America is today's Evil Empire.

[BshortJLS]

Evidence...

[maraudingchimpanzee]

buy and read Nemesis: The Last Days of the American Republic by Chalmers Johnson

I would list the evidence myself, but that book contains all the evidence I would list for you and more.

[BshortJLS]

Thank you, I will look into that, at least you have a reason to hate America.

[maraudingchimpanzee]

I appreciate you looking into it. So many times people ask me for evidence of my beliefs and refuse to look into my sources.

[Danzigraves138]

emahgawd anti flag's song "indie sux hardline sux emo sux you sux" isn't insulting emo it's actually insulting punks who insult those types of music just becase it's not punk.

[free2rock82]

new york burning!

[AntimonarquicBR]

PUNKS NOT DEAD!

[rakim282828]

fuck america freedon for pr

[BshortJLS]

You say fuck america, I say fuck you, ignorent bitch. Give a reson why you hat america.

[profitprophet368]

LET IT BURN

[profitprophet368]

this is the modern rome burning

[blobperson]

the best song on the album

[noisecape]

you NEED to see them play this live, it owns hard.

[Charlottefreemumia]

1. yeah there was an interview with chris#2 and he said he doesn't think anti-flag will have their next deal with rca because the label didn't supported them that much they hoped and the label doesn't really know who anti-flag is.....soooo...they gonna leave the major-label...^^ xD

and

2. yes! chris#2 is an awesome bassist xD xD xD

[1mindlessmusic1]

Chris #2 is an awesome bassist!!!

[Charlottefreemumia]

emo??? :'D haha...

"If they were emo then they wouldn't have good guitar, bass, and drum riffs"

HAHA....emo-bands don't have good riffs :P

they gonna leave rca!^^ :DD

[sk8terbuk87]

their leaving Rca?!! :D:D:D:D

[SkyShaw]

I love anti-flag but it pisses me off when people think they're emo. If they were emo then they wouldn't have good guitar, bass, and drum riffs. And they wouldn't be political, they'd be pathetic. Now they just need to drop their label and go back to fat wreck.

[Saikulv100]

so ur saying all emo bands r pathetic ur just sad

[SkyShaw]

How am I sad? Isn't it a bit ironic that you're saying a person who dislikes emo is sad? How is disliking a genre sad? The only emo band(s) I like are Fugazi, Rites of Spring, and Jawbreaker and they don't even sound like the pussy shite that modern emo is.

[sk8terbuk87]

agreed.

[flig4]

Hey, skyshaw, first of all, I agree with most of what you said right there, but Jawbreaker isn't emo rock. They are punk. Not emo. That's all I had to say. Bye-bye.

[SkyShaw]

They're very early emo, back when it was still good .

[fabiooliveira27]

Anti-Flag, emo?!

Have you been smoking something?

Anti-Flag = Punk

Emo = GAY

Are Ant~-Flag gay?! NO! So they aren't emo!

[SkyShaw]

Never said they were emo dude.

[ChrisVinegar]

yes A-F isn't emo.

it's polit punk

btw >>> emo isn't gay. I really like Silverstein. They are very good

[emahgawd]

they have a song called "emo sux"

[SkyShaw]

I did not say anti-flag was emo. I was saying Jawbreaker, along with Fugazi, is one of the bands of the original emo scene, back when it still had real punk elements.

[mlaw006]

chris #2 said the next album is going to sound like the old anti-flag.

[santiaguinrueda]

that would be fucking great!!!

[Charlottefreemumia]

yes^^

anti-flag "fans" who say the new album is bad don't seem to be interested in the lyrics-.-

if you don't like the sound..okay!...but to say the album is just bad....-.-

[Charlottefreemumia]

yes^^

i can't understand people who say the new album is bad :O that people probably aren't interested in the awesome lyrics..-.-..just in the sound which is not that punk anymore...

[sk8terbuk87]

ugh

anti-flag changed a lot in this album

but they still rock =]

[antiflag85]

My favorite song of the new album. I saw them a month ago and this was the last song of the gig. They are so awesome.

[Baldbananapoppunk]

The best band out there! Anti-flag shows us how fucked up the world is, if we stands united we can fix the world maybe save the world is the right word.

[immortalflame108]

i like the new anti flag

[muckliii]

i'll see them tomorrow ^^

[JohurtECKE]

I`ve seen Anti Flag two days ago!!! YEAHHHH

At the novarock in Austria, they are fkin AMAZING

[sr3po0p]

lmao when i went in philly i got punched in the face moshing exept it was so much fun i didnt get out!

[medion911ddd]

great song of their new album!

im going to see ANTI-FLAG for the first time this summer on LOWLANDS in the netherlands (my country ^^)

[captainanarchy31]

same here. at 1st i thought the cd was a dissapointment but i started listening to it and its freakin good cd actually i guess it was cause we got used to the fast punk anti flag but htis is not bad at all it has punk like spit in the face n songs that make such true statements like if u wanna steal you better learn how to lie so i cant stop hearing this cd i luv it

[thatgrlfromnj]

i saw them a few weeks ago and when they played this song, it was prob one of the best 4 minutes of my life, and thats not an exxageration, it was so powerful and moving!!

[ceciliannce]

love their new stuff, still the same band with great meanings for me

[Punkrockgod93]

Favourite Song on the New Album (:

Every time I hear this Song I sing along :D

[pvgangstapunk]

got a video like this using pictures everyone who wants to watch it

[hapihappyj0yj0y]

beston the new album but the rest is shit, where is the anti-flag i once knew?

[Blubbai]

agreed....but i listend to good 'n' ready and so i developed a "like" for the new album...i thought it scuked at first...but now i think its okay...i mean the other CDs are just amazing

[Stoni123456]

geiler song!!!

[Mewtbis]

fucking song <3 i love it!!

[GlamBalam]

The second half of the song is amazing, most of all when he says all the cities that are burning! just <3 it!

[TheKillCity]

I think it's the best ending to a song I've ever heard,

and that's not an exaggeration.

It's sooooo dramatic and powerful.

[Unamerican666]

you know what they say. if it aint country it aint music. lol. nah... AF still rocks... even though theyre sell out. :-)

[scottyoung]

its pretty good. I detected a tiny Reggaeton beat in there.....haha

[Nikko92]

the bridge is awesome.

[gnarkill733]

best one of the songs from the new cd that ive heard

[scum]

this song and spit in the face are decent, not too keen on the others yet but im sure they'll grow on me

[pisserplunker]

this song is pretty rad

[Geneverbang]

sounds good

[88antifa]

hey where do you got it
