One of the most important songs ever written.

[@BecauseLiberty]

Agreed

[@ReggiePostlethwaite]

It is

[@DavidMorley]

yes

[@keithmory6969]

Just turned 50 like a Couple months ago I've listen to them since at least 15 years of age..they have schooled me more than any schools have , punk was not just a fashion nor a fad for some..it actually was who we where and still are.. it was a fight a cry for what we saw wrong in this world ..and the sad part is no one who really listened...they moved forward and picked there political parties and so forth because they thought that was how they could change it and make it better ...nothing changed ! The truth is where you really listening??

[@Soundeagle3456]

That's correct, most people mistook punk as being a left wing movement, nope it was far deeper.

[@alfpunk1969]

Damn right

[@A-No-One]

Men like you have always inspired me. I will gladly take that torch off you hands brother. Oi, up the undead punx!

[@jacooba7389]

They all said we were conspiracy theorists but what we believed is crystallising before our very eyes. This wef shit that's coming is worse than anything we could have seen

[@SuperBroonie]

Agree. My 1st live gig experience was Subhumans. Great band

[@rekonept754]

Truest punk song and band ever...Dick is a true lyricalist... From birth, to school, to work, to the grave!!

[@zombywoof9188]

Barring absolutely no others, I believe Dick is THE best lyricist. Full stop!

[@bimmerheadzept915]

I'M BACK FOR MORE SUBS...2021 WITH THIS COVID VIRUS THAT'S KILLING MILLIONS...SO DEVASTATING! I FIND COMFORT IN JAMMING TO THE SUBS IN SO MANY WAYS!! CHEERS MATES..

@@bimmerheadzept915 Don’t believe the fear porn. Our governments are using this to control the population. Resist

"This is one of the most important songs ever written", said somebody on youtube. For me, it was the soundtrack of my youth (it came out in 1983) and I pretty much think and feel the same way to this day, cheers

[@MrSlam-bf2jb]

This song reminds me of an old painting on a wall in my hometown that said " can you imagine a war without soldiers ?"

[@zombywoof9188]

That's a beautiful thought.

[@TuubiName]

War without soldiers is mob violence, you can watch it on best gore and the like.

[@trenthall1427]

one of the greatest songs ever written....played by one of the greatest bands EVER!!!!

[@markwoodland1198]

Without a shadow of doubt the best punk song EVER written and I'm proud to say that I'm from the same town (Warminster in Wiltshire UK) as Subhumans

[@andyfullwood1530]

Dick is from Melksham, I seen him in passing a few times, walking around Melksham, chippenham and Trowbridge. This was before I knew who he was, I had just discovered SUBHUMANS and the first time I seen them at a gig, I was like "fuck me, I know you". it was only the drummer from Warminster I think .. Great band though, regardless of location.

[@Mrs35S]

live your life by byour own rules there is no authority but yourself

[@cannibal4768]

This is great...The best I ever heard and this is an old man.

[@adie.b3601]

[@franklinsukmynutz5062]

i fell in love with subhumans after i heard this. my brother is in the army and i want to play it for him

[@rekonept754]

this song actually stopped me from joining the army....I wasn't about to fight someone else's war....

[@camaycama7479]

This is literally is rare legendary of true mid 80s progressive punk, with absolute no BS

[@johnneidert4184]

I finally got to see them at a pub in Florida a few years ago. By far the best show I've ever seen outside of Bad Brains and Rush...The guys were super cool to sign all my merch. Just heard there coming back soon can't wait

[@reggielovato9525]

The Bohemian Rhapsody of Punk

[@ericsoldano6017]

Epic, simply epic... Why does this not have more views!

[@jacooba7389]

It's on youtube in many places, between them its still played a fair bit

[@hilleryshaw1283]

Intelligence is threatening and genius is sin if you could ever see through them they know they'd never win!!!

[@themusicgraveyard600]

I bought this first pressing imported vinyl when it came out, been spinning ever since.

[@simonh.2043]

A brilliant song by a brilliant band - one of the few bands I've ever bothered to go see. Strangely, the only other piece of music I can compare this to is '2112' by Rush, and I think that's pretty fu**ed up of me. :/

[@BecauseLiberty]

This guy gets it

[@neilmctamney1729]

Simon H. Love the comparison!

[@sierralorain]

One for the real ones ☝

[@JMac90_]

My favorite punk band. Subhumans kick ass!

[@ReggiePostlethwaite]

ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE

[@5dvibes176]

Doesn't get truer than that. From the Cradle to the grave.

[@hilleryshaw1283]

Eric it doesn't have more views because people listen to shite they don't know good music like this!!!

[@jasondavies4850]

Hillery Shaw couldn't have said it better myself!!!

[@suxbnu]

Sorry Hillery, but musicial taste is completely subjective.

[@zombywoof9188]

You're of course right@@suxbnu. So is Hillery.

[@molotovmafia2406]

i like that in the part where they sang about the army the music sounded like bullets

[@russkinloch5422]

Spot on social commentary . What a classic.

[@famlife4383]

This was my bangers when i got into punk

[@jonjones5152]

Top job with the wordage Crisp ! Thumbs up gadge !

[@AngeliqueAngeL8471]

Like, the best. I used to have this record album

[@panther6421]

love it!

[@strumbolli]

I know Dick, but you just have to make the best of it and crack on mate.

[@gaz1tinsley]

This is life !

[@jack_schitt7484]

Glorious

[@stephandavis9872]

Love the bolts

[@suxbnu]

Total Masterpiece. Don't agree with the message at all anymore, but in my teens, it was a lot of fun to think that I knew what was up.

[@markwoodland7899]

So you're a corporate puppet now? Once you've lived on the outside of normal society by even just listening to proper punk how can you go back to mindless drudgery of normal living....Career/Wife/Kids/Mortgage and being happy with the MINDLESS rubbish that's on the TV in 2020? Cut loose and get your life back

[@markwoodland7899]

'Become something you never were and regret it Til the day you die' is a line from this song you should take heed of

[@slick_Ric]
