[QUOTE=coheneran]So they're on two record labels?!

You're missing the point, which was that it's hypocritical to say "F[SIZE="2"]U[/SIZE]CK WAR! F[SIZE="2"]UCK[/SIZE] THE GOVERNMENT" when they're on RCA, a major label, a huge corporation that profits from war due to its links with the goverment.

Flagjacket 12-23-2005 09:49 AM

I thought it was because they just spent the better part of ten years talking about the evils of corporations and then were on a corporation and used the Chumbawumba excuse. Unless Justin Sane gives every cent he earns to Food Not Bombs or something then it just gives me more reason to hate Anti Flag.

Those fuc'king sell-out little bitches! What the fu'ck happened to integrity? When that album comes out, it's due for a stickering. HMV workers will be peeling stickers off album covers like never before. Those fu'cking cunts:

“To those of you who consider yourself a part of our community, we understand that our decision may cause you concern or piss you off,” the band said in a statement. “We deeply respect you and do not want to discount your concerns. We want you to know that we are confident in our choice and completely committed to the principles that we have backed over the last ten-plus years.”

"A part of our community"?! Now who's the fuc'king elitist punk?

I declare a boycott on any new Anti-Flag releases. I suck at making them, but somebody should make an Anti-Anti-Flag stencil.

Flagjacket 12-23-2005 10:00 AM

This reminds me of how Rage was on a major for pretty much every release they did. Fight all the powers but Sony.

coheneran 12-23-2005 10:11 AM

Can we have a list somewhere of every punk band that sold out?

asdf 12-23-2005 10:14 AM

I don't listen to Anti-Flag because I don't really like their music.

sketchyjoe 12-23-2005 10:15 AM

I hate the term sellout.

Same, except all the kids who listen to anything remotely close to punk in my school think that they're going to be the next Nirvana craze and cause some sort of social revolution. Although if we got the mall shopping bunch into anarchy, then we'd have some real leverage going.

I don't know a single person at my school who likes anti-flag, although I went to a concert of theirs freshman year with a few friends. They were there to see against me! who were playing with them though.

MY metalhead friend likes them, a lot of scenesters (they think it gives them punk rock cred?), and this one chick who's into 80's hardcore. And this hippy chick likes them but she also thought that the Misfits were from England and thought they were serious about wanting to kill people so her opinion doesn't count.

Hehehehe. Guess what kind of 'philia my ex though the Nekromantix were into?

Flagjacket 12-23-2005 10:37 AM

Oh, toughie, how about Ethanphilia?

:lol: wow, I'm glad I don't know people like that.

Methinks we are spamming up this thread a wee bit.

AIRIC 12-23-2005 10:43 AM

RAR sounds hollow for real. As much as I don't want to admit it, they are dead to me. I agree with some people "who cares if they still make great music?". They won't. SFAFC was bad. Admit it. If not bad it wasn't Against Me!. SFAFC wasn't the band I loved, neither is the Against Me! on Sire records, or the Agaisnt Me! that took their record off of PIX. My once favorite band is officially dead to me.

lynch_me 12-23-2005 10:43 AM

Everyone calm down.

Who is RAR and SFAFC?

AIRIC 12-23-2005 10:45 AM

Reinventing Axl Rose and Searching For a Former Clarity.

And Matt it's hard to calm down when you're dead inside.

EDIT: DEAD

Awww. Yes, SFAFR wasn't as good as all my friends made AM! to be. Neither was We Were Never Going Home. Kind of disappointed me.

Flagjacket 12-23-2005 10:51 AM

.... I liked SFAFC. You guys are just plain mean. :upset:

AIRIC 12-23-2005 10:51 AM

It wasn't Against Me!.

They better be ****ing around or something.

REALLY? Huh. Damn that eMule and the mislabelling users who use it! So SFAFC is a band, not an AM! album?

AIRIC 12-23-2005 10:52 AM

Haha, you know what I mean.

coheneran 12-23-2005 10:53 AM

[QUOTE=Skrunnch]Haha, you know what I mean.[/QUOTE]

No, I am rather confused.

AIRIC 12-23-2005 10:55 AM

SFAFC was an Against Me! record, but it wasn't the Against Me! that I knew and loved. It was bad, and that doesn't happen with Against Me!

asdf 12-23-2005 10:59 AM

I wouldn't say it was bad. It was just "meh"

Flagjacket 12-23-2005 11:00 AM

I liked it a lot, it just didn't sound like they used to.

Angry Balled Fists! 12-23-2005 11:08 AM

Go cry your eyes out Eric !

People are going crazy !!!!!!!!!!

Flagjacket 12-23-2005 11:10 AM

The AM! story topped Rancid on punknews.
