  • such a solid song but the clip is enough to give me nightmares. urgh. can't watch

  • @joannenicole91 I'm taking that as a compliment! Thanks!

  • Im a little confused- is this the official video? Great song, BTW

  • @sweetttina666 nope, its not official by any means, just a spec video I put together.  Although I did talk to the gents at the show they played in Brooklyn and they dug it.

  • interesting..arming Eritrea....All Eritrea is asking is to be left alone. Is that too much to ask? God bless Eritrea...

  • @Zagretay hmmm not really sure the appropriate way to respond to this one.

  • Screamo?! Are you mad?! Fuck genres. You muppets only recognise something when it's being sold to you. This is Future of the Left. It's aggression, but you fuckwits wouldn't know anything about... Just names, labels and a feeling of "collective individualism".

  • @ChainedHeartTattoo why would arming eritrea = eritreas destruction? and eritrea is actually famous for refusing humanitarian assistance, in fact its the only african country in 2011 to refuse us aid and it has removed aid agencys from its territory, so maybe the use of eritrea means something more

  • Haha. There were 7 tory rah-rahs that came here thinking this was something that they needed to know about

  • Screamo? CLEARLY this is post-reggae/powerpolka fusion.

  • this is obviously electro-pop.

  • @kiliawta

    Heavy metal? Are you serious?

  • YES! FUCK YOU RICK!!!!!!

  • @kiliawta noise rock/punk i feel would be a more appropriate description of this sound

  • If you REALLY want to label this it would probably be post-hardcore or art-punk. Really though, it's just aggressive rock music.

  • weird video to watch after having a wank

  • Wow...it seems like many have missed the point of this song; it's facetious. The point, from the black humor perspective, is that it would be far cheaper to facilitate Eritrea in destroying itself than it would be to offer humanitarian assistance. And this of course would ultimately allow the rest of the world to move on, ignore the issue or absolve itself. So the subtext is that the facetiousness is an indictment of human nature and serves as a bleak prediction for future events...
