anti-flag the terror state

I'm not a huge fan of them as musicians or fans of their lyrics. I guess I never really got hooked. But I kind of disagree on the part that " most people who don't like their lyrics don't like them"....No offense, but most music people listen to is for lyrics, and more importantly for lyrics they can relate to. If I wanted to actually hear tgood instruments I'd listen to some old metallica.

Only good album is Die For Government and thats cause half of it wasn't this WE HATE AMERICA crap. I stand by that accusation. I'm sick of bands using their positions to give out very skewed views on world politics. The Terror State has one redeeming quality, Mind The G.A.T.T. is actually a good song and I almost agree with it, but classics like "Die For Governmet", "Kill The Rich" (love the title), "Punk By The Book", "I'm Being Watched By The CIA", "Go-Go Dancer", "Summer Squatter". Great songs. Their new stuff is way way way too political. And Justin can't sing. At all.

I dont see whats so special about the standard three chord punk song?? They have musical talent but they do too much whining for my tastes.

I know what you mean, but what they have, that alotta other band dont have, is passion for their music, passion for what they believe in. I have pretty much the complete opposite views from them yet i respect them because they are obviously there to spread their views. Which is what punk is too me.
