^ Yes, I guess they did, but regardless of actual events, we were always taught that the Brits fought fair*:

"Tell us all a story
About how it used to be
Make it up and write it down
Just like history."

(Paul Simon)

*Apart from the Amritsar Massacre of 1919, which was a little difficult to justify.

Zappa interviews during this time are gold.

Was bout to say. It's way easy to praise how you play the game when you're winning. It's like terrorism. It's easy as the West to complain that people who have no real way to fight American armies in the field aren't fighting honorably but unless you can provide a reasonable alternative you're just bitching about your own problems.

I really like this one Zappa interview where the interviewer is a woman who starts criticizing him for something or other but he's just so chill and reasonable and by the end you can tell she wants to **** him.

No idea. Was just some interview I saw a few years ago.

BTW I just so happen to be listening to Final War - "The Nationalist".

Love that song.

"Race Land" is the ultimate banger on that album though. If I was the type to make anime music videos that would be a thing already.

Thanks for reminding me of the band's name. Had totally forgotten and so couldn't dl the album.

For these bands you'll need the right blog posts.
