The Anthem, The War Cry, whatever you call it...

I heard this song by Flatfoot 56 called "The Ode". It sounded to me like some soldiers were singing. Oh well... the lyric is short.

Jump on aboard young bonny lad. We'll fight like our fathers before,and we won't stop until freedom's found in this awful, bloody war, We proudly raise the colors of our flag. We'll fight for honor and our God, And we will fight the evil foe who now has sword in hand.

When I heard some of the songs from Flatfoot 56's sophomore album, it was like being taken to Scotland to eat some haggis or something. Nevertheless, they rock. Old school hardcore/punk from the 80's meets a bagpiper from a school band. & oh, they have released a new album, called Knuckles Up. This album is entitled Waves of War. I think a Filipino band who will incorporate indigenous elements or instruments to old school punk rock will surely make a new scene within a scene that's bein plagued by alternative rock love songs & frustrations, etc. Flatfoot 56 is one of those bands that carried British punk to the 21st century. Others maybe became frustrated because of money. Oh well... that's all for me now. SxE rules!!! Down with Anarchy & Neo-fascism!!!
