Somebody just get those guys a movie deal. I want to see more of this.

[@sully676]

felt like a just watched a summary to the most badass movie ever

[@kubilaykucukbaslar944]

Mike ness is a legend, deeply under appreciated for his talents. He's a lot like Johnny Cash with a splash of punk rock.

[@user-yu3rz6ip6h]

Best Punkabilly Band Ever, Hands Down!

[@judaspriest2271]

....

[@MrLespaul2000]

If this doesn't get you rockin'...your'e fuckin dead!!!

[@fallonaust]

MrLespaul2000 Could not agree more

[@Warbrain95]

Rock n´Roll..is back......thanks Social Distortion !!!!

[@StargazersBlackbird3]

I know this band because of my old english-class-book. there was an interview with mike ness in it :D oh, it was the best english lesson in my life :D

[@daanaerts1545]

"I'm public enemy no. 1, I'm sorry for all the things that I've done, If indeed we do cross paths, It's nothing personal." awesome lyrics

[@lilyelizabeth8321]

my favorite part 🤘🏼

[@Lif3ofdiva]

Definition of a tough guy!

[@IceCubeJohnson]

Springfield 1903! Very cool gun, I'm glad to see it get some respect.

[@bazzookaduke]

This is no music video. This is the shortest gangster movie with the best soundtrack ever made!

[@belochkinshow4223]

Well I’m a gangster 1934 Junkies, Winos, Pimps & Whores And all you men, women and kids best get out the way I just left your town, took all your loot, bought a pink carnation and a pinstripe suit, a hopped-up V8 Ford and some two-tone shoes And I’m already gone, I like the pool of blood and sorrow, I've got the Machine Gun Blues I’ll be out of here for the break of dawn, I'll hit the highway, smoke a big cigar, got to stop and bury the cash, and get some more There’s only one thing on my mind, that's making it across that ol' state line, but I’m a hell of avenging bullets, waiting there for me And I’m already gone, I've left a path of pure destruction, I've got the Machine Gun Blues I'm already gone, my life will soon be through, I've got the Machine Gun Blues I'm public enemy #1 I'm sorry for the things that I've done If indeed we do cross path, it's nothing personal And I’m already gone, I've left a trail of devastation, I've got the Machine Gun Blues I'm already gone, my life will soon be through, I've got the Machine Gun Blues

[@bfitz567]

as an ex gang member(MC), I love this song...live by the sword,die by the sword..many of my old friends did...

[@killyoubeforeyoukill]

i heard that Black Veil Brides had said their new album would sound like Social Distortion meets Metallica, so I checked these guys out, and I gotta say I like what I hear :)

[@patkosanke]

Seriously, the comments about innocent dead bodies? Come on folks, it's a short film/video meant for entertainment. Social Distortion, especially Mr. Ness has been inspiring me for decades, in fact possibly saving my life through his music. So hats off and a huge thank you for all that you do. :)

[@pegasusc130]

I gotta see social D before I die. 49 year old from Scotland living in So-Cal God bless So-Cal.

[@lil11taz]

@mrlosist I'm a "Sick 'girl" and I live in "Another State of Mind"! Can't wait til the 20th! Last chance I had to see these guys was in '84! And that just ain't right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! With my "motorcycle jacket" and "big motor bike" baby!!!!!!!

[@aristidis13]

The best music video in history! See you in Italy in June!

[@909dilligaf]

This is by far one of the best videos I've ever seen!! Social D's the best!!!!

[@mengoingabroad8576]

Production Designer, Philip Duffin, should get an award... also Costume Designer Kristin Anacker... DP Charles Papert... and of course, especially, Director Jeremy Alter... but one quesion... whose IDEA was this?
