@dubld00ce no this was made by the decemberists

It can be interpreted that way. But I think It's less of a romantic love and more of a brotherly thing.
-
Am I mishearing this song or is it really about two soldiers having gay sex in the trenches?

@buckwats When you can spell and understand Marxism I'm sure people will be happy to give a fuck.

This an independent video? I love the song, but the levels seem a bit off... kinda quiet...

god neither the supporters of this band's supposed communist sympathies and people who heckle them for the same have any idea what communism or socialism is. the decemberists are on record as believing that the 1825 russian revolutionary movement from which they got their name was a communist (one assumes marxist). this just proves the band's ignorance, since the historical decembrists were constitutional democrats and regardless marx didn't start writing until the 1840's. fuck everyone.
