Video clips spanning this classic NYC punk band's lengthy career!!!

"False Prophets are doomed to always be referred to as a hardcore punk band, which they often were. However, at times they were also an aggressively political folk band, a hard-edged funk outfit, and a crack new wave band led by a prolific poet. To say that this music stretched the limits of hardcore is to understate how diverse it all was -- this is hardcore as cabaret, complete with lyrical passages, a cappella sections, and song structures rivaling progressive rock dinosaurs. The only other band to ever make hardcore this interesting was the Minutemen, and that's good company for anyone." ~ Richard Foss, All Music Guide
