CONSERVATIVE MILITARY IMAGE Talks About Their Lyrics

[@ernestking5205]

Shout out to those of us who have been incarcerated and to those still behind the wall . Big difference between that and being grounded .

[@thepunkrockreview]

You shit on Johnny Cash, too? Just curious, legit question

[@ernestking5205]

I get it its art I mean I could write a song about child birth and compare it to being constipated it doesn’t mean I understand what its like . I actually like cmi no disrespect .

[@FinnMcCool-b3e]

For real. Some of the best songs are just really good stories, not all books have to be autobiographies.​@@thepunkrockreview

Listening bask punk rock, i've discover CMI via youtube suggestions. I love the energy. Thanks for that interview. Big hug from Morocco.

[@thepunkrockreview]

Ayye! Morocco?!? That's amazing! I have done 2 long form discussions with Adam, they're about 40 minutes each. If you're interested in watching the entire thing. Either way, thanks for the support, I appreciate it 👊 Happy New Year!

[@xoutofdatex]

cheers from France! Bask punk rock is huge and I love it.

[@LouNebel-oy2pn]

I like bands that talk about the working class struggle, as opposed to the bands that are raging for the machine.

[@xalstarx]

What about bands that rage against the machine?

[@eatassonthefirstdate]

​@@xalstarx most of those bands are in their 20s and don't even know jack shit about what they claim to be raging against. then u get a generation full of libtards like what we have today😅 I hate both ends of the political spectrum cuz the further u go, the more ppl lose their own identity. so u can't call me a nazi😅

[@A_White_Male_Man]

Agreed

[@lewisb85]

Love this band, I remember someone asking harley flanagan about them and he said they reminded him of the early nyc scene when hardcore and oi hadn't separated. I think he's bang on with that assessment.

[@thepunkrockreview]

Yeah that's a pretty accurate description, lol

[@Greg-xi8yx]

That’s a dumb comment because Oi! and Hardcore BEGAN completely separated from each other by an ocean so from it’s very earliest beginnings they were seperate. 😅

[@jenskofoed-pihl-r1h]

Used to be a metalhead but "Casual Violence" CMI's debut LP is by far my fave 2023 album! Like Agnostic Front meets Rose Tattoo or something, top notch HC punkband and Adam is a boss singer. Cheers from Copenhagen

[@thepunkrockreview]

Heck yeah man, thanks for watching! 🍕🍕🍕🍕

[@tommiethrash]

…I’m a “metal head” and I love CMI! Don’t gotta give up anything lol

[@willylowman99]

ROSE TATTOO! Sweet!

[@ThePunkRockMBA]

Love Adam! Great guy.

[@thepunkrockreview]

Yeah bro, he's friggin awesome. Gets a lot of unwarranted crap for his band name (but he doesn't seem bothered by it) and he's like one of the most genuine and nice dudes I've ever met. Super happy to know him.

[@MagenRaquel]

saw them a few weeks ago, it was an awesome show, awesome lineup.

[@NiccoLong]

Recently discovered CMI and have been loving them! Wanted to find out more about the band and found your interview with Adam very interesting. Thank you!

[@thepunkrockreview]

Ayyye! Thanks for watching! He's been on twice and so was Chris, their guitar player!

[@livelurked4103]

CMI = man therapy.

Lol for real. They motivated me to get in better shape and I'm almost down 20 lbs

[@omgjimmyboy]

I liked the bit towards the end where he says he’s learned a lot from the best and worst leaders/bosses, didn’t realize subconsciously I’ve learned a lot from the worst people in my life too.

[@ChrisMcCarthy1984]

Adam is a great dude, met him at FYA. Love this band.

[@thepunkrockreview]

Yeah he's awesome, super nice dude. Great band

[@Blackdiamondprod.]

I might be wrong, but I think the interviewer used to run a venue in Scranton/Wilkes-Barre called Backstage.

Telling stories, kinda like Oitlaw Country. You like Johnny Cash? He never went to prison either...

@@PetrolHeadMike true, I kinda thought of that, maybe the guy's just that good at what he does? I don't know his life story. Fighting in a gym, making an honest living and not wondering around fucked up is to be commended, not disrespected.

What is the singers name . He seems pretty chill and upfront

[@thepunkrockreview]

His name is Adam, he's done a cpl podcasts with me in the last year

[@RichardCranium.]

Is this band conservative or making fun of conservatives? It is often hard to tell with punk

[@thepunkrockreview]

I believe they would call themselves right leaning centrists, but I'm not 100% sure. You'd have to ask them. And I imagine each member feels a bit different.

[@RichardCranium.]

@@thepunkrockreview Kill the poor by Dead Kennedy's sound like lyrics a Social Darwinist from the 1800s would agree with. But you can still tell it is a parody due to when it was written. But there was a band called Reagan Youth which made fun of Reaganites and was a parody.

Only with a ham and cheese, though. But yeah, for sure.

[@justincook181]

Good one!! Not surprised he didn’t cite any authors or philosophers. Though that would be unintentionally hilarious to listen to this fool try to talk literature and philosophy. Even more unintentionally hilarious than his attempts at kicking any knowledge of HC or punk or skinheadism.

@Cholobilly21 Ya I heard the “window licker” lyric. What an asshole. I spent a good portion of my life working with mentally disabled kids. Only a true cocksucker would put them down like that.

[@pariahthistledowne3934]

I personally do not care about Punk/Oi/Hardcore lyrics, and really never did. For me, if the sound is good, and the energy is high....that is all i care about, and i do NOT allow ANYONE'S Politik to influence me. I can have Skrewdriver and Los Fastidios on the same playlist, because i am as close to a Free and Sovereign Individual as can be...Politik be Damned! Arguing with Tribed up Folk is a nonsensical and foolish waste of time and energy, so do not bother trying to argue with me. CMI is great stuff for when i want to rock out!

@@pariahthistledowne3934He’s a snowflake and you made his pussy hurt by mentioning Skrewdriver. And he lacks the intellect and understanding of TRUE PUNK to have any idea that “being a free an sovereign individual” is at it’s core. To him, it is about group comformity and following the herd.
