"BASTARDS" LYRICS
Yesterday I told my sons "sometimes the bad guys win"
And that it made me scared about the world that we live in
But I had to reassure them that it wouldn’t be for long
Sons we have to be ourselves
We have to be strong
I said “boys you are the future, so let this be a lesson
There may come a day you have to fight off their aggression”
Cause fear and hatred won today, the darkness ate the light
But both you look in my eyes, it’ll be alright
In every step you take
I'm with you all the way
Cause I would die for you
To do what’s right for you
In hopes that when I’m gone
You’ll carry on these words I wrote for you
Till then…
I’ll sing
Stand your ground
Don’t let the bastards grind you down
Be bold, be strange
Don’t let their fears make you afraid
There’s hope, they’ll change
Well I looked out to the world today, thought "what a bloody mess!”
They stripped our morals from us, put 'em under house arrest
And "liberty" and "country" are the words they need to speak
A little “god,” a little “freedom,” if we don’t agree, we're weak
And every politician stood there idle and so smug
Empowering the racists and 2nd Amendment thugs
Wall St. and the billionaires, convinced us they’re so smart
Saying “vote with your wallet, instead of with your hearts!”
But we won’t go away!
You won’t forget our name!
The pussy generation, the PC and the brave
The protesters that slink along the streets of misery
And so…
I’ll sing
Stand your ground
Don’t let the bastards grind you down
Be bold, be strange
Don’t let their fears make you afraid
There’s hope, they’ll change
We’ll change
Change
No, no, no, no, no (FUCK NO!)
No, no, no, no, no (FUCK NO!)
No, no, no, no, no (FUCK NO!)
So give us all your faggots, all your niggas, and your spics
Give us all your Muslims, your so-called terrorists
We’ll welcome them with open arms, and put ‘em in our mix
We’re better off together now, embrace our difference
Remember there is love!
Our words can stop their guns
Forget the rednecks
Living in the past
We’re never going back now, we've reached critical mass
And so…
I’ll sing
Stand my ground
Won’t let the bastards grind me down
I’m bold, I’m strange
Won’t let their fears make me afraid
There’s hope, they’ll change

I love the comments that are basically mirroring what the song directly talks about
I don't care what everyone thinks, feels, perceives or judges. Why do most say "this isn't machine head"...this is by definition machine head. They are a band,who have the freedom to do whatever they want! There is no 'machine head sound'. They just are, let them be who they wanna be and make the music they wanna make.
I somewhat agree, in that MH can do whatever they want. They've been around the block and paid their dues (I use the term "They've" loosely, because it's mostly Robb in reference to MH due to the lineup changes).
However, this song (IMO) is just bad, bad, bad.
If he wanted to keep it simple, then fine... but THAT chord progression? Really?!?!
And though I approve of the message, it sounds like it was written by an angry twelve year old... not a 50+ year old man.
Some gravitas please, at least.
No. This sucks balls.
Listening this song in my car… My 8 years old son is sitting next to me… He asks me about the meaning of the lyrics…. I started to translate to hungarian language… than my throat blocks and my eyes get wet… So I thighten his hand and I promiss: „In every step you take I'm with you all the way Cause I would die for you To do what’s right for you”
I was a Machine Head fan from the beginning, and now I become more!!! Thank you Rob for this unforgettable experience!!!
What a load of bollocks.
@@stevenlornie1261 FYAD
That didn't happen so much it unhappened things that did happen.
The Intro reminds me of the Water Level in Super Mario 64.
Hopefully with the right drowning in it
It does sound like jolly rodger bay
@@crawfish19 Hitting me in the 90s childhood nostalgia feels.
@@crawfish19 it sounds nothing like it
This song has spoken to me since the first day I heard it. At the time my sons were teenagers. The election that year was polarizing for us all. Bastards spoke to my heart that this next generation, their generation would be the ones to change the world. In WI last night, Gen Z stood up for what is right. In Nashville this week, Gen Z stood up for themselves. These kids are a new breed and I'm so proud of them. They are doing it, they are standing their ground and succeeding.
So much love in this song. I will stand my ground and I will never let the bastards grind me down.
Stand your ground
don't let the bastards grind you down
be bold, be strange
don't let their fears make you afraid
there's hope, they'll change
This gets fire going in me. Be strong, be true. Defend the weak
This song is fucking gay
@JohnACorp782 I know but don't let the bastards grind you down.
@JohnACorp782 no u you fucking piece of garbage. this song is purely a positive movement.

I'm not saying remake The Blackening but Clenching and Farewell to Arms are how you write political songs with impact.
Be bold be strange/don’t let their fears make you afraid
Let freedom ring with a slam poem blast!
Let the freedom ring with a love blasst
Dweeb.
You all prolly dont give a shit but does any of you know a trick to get back into an Instagram account??
I somehow forgot the login password. I would love any tips you can offer me.
@Ryder Nikolas instablaster :)
There must have been an ice cream truck passing the studio when they were recording this.
panzer 1 hhhhhhhhhhhhh
And Now I Lay The Down
love your rune
Flynn wasn't kidding when he said don't expect a heavy album.......
You've not heard the rest of the album... there's one track even lighter but the rest are damn heavy!
That's perfectly okay.
Iain Purdie How have you heard the full album?
I have heard the rest of the released material from the album, I really dig Catharsis and Beyond the Pale. This track to me for some reason gives me a really Flogging Molly charm to it especially at the end that I dig big time. A really grab the person next to you grab your pint raise it in the air and sing with me in the pub everyone happy and together brother and sister vibe and I understand what Flynn is saying here. Since Locust which is a total Rager! of an album that has NO bad songs on it and an absolutely praise worthy follow up to the Blackening the material has gotten further from the heavier Machine Head style. I saw Machine Head both times on the Killer and Kings tour when they came to my area totally CRUSHING SHOWS at Irving Plaza NYC and The Paramount NY. I love Machine Head and will always see them when they come around my area I'm an absolute Head Case for life! But this sort of direction I think should be re-thought by the band after this album. I'm ready for a Blackening 2. World tour with 3 to 4 opening bands lighting and production out of the wazoo in small intimate venues. It's really time Machine Head are put on the pedestal where they belong with the greats and a tour like that would do it. Blackening 2 was really my hopes and expectations going into hearing that they were in the studio before anything was released or talked about over a year ago about this new album especially given the political climate/tension in America right now which historically has shown that it produces great music and how clearly Flynn feels about whats going on. When this song was originally posted as a video on the MH youtube of just him playing this song, his General Journals which everyone should read if you don't already really fascinating reads I really expected a Blackening 2. Heavy, Groovy, Insane in your face drum heavy production, old school 90's angry Flynn vocals on a 13 track epic of an album. I' am totally ready for that shit but It really doesn't seem like were getting it at least yet with Catharsis, maybe I'm wrong and it's at least another MH classic rager of an album or exactly that in a 15 track rager since the album is 15 tracks long lol. I really don't know what to expect with the rest of the album which is very unlike every other MH album of past and that really excites me and I'am excited to hear the rest of the album and hope I will be pleasantly surprised! BUT feel its time for Machine head to bring the shred back as ST Dime said to Demmel when he joined MH with another classic like The Blackening. I look forward to receiving my box set of Catharsis in the mail but I'm so ready for the MH equivalent to ...and Justice for All. Robb I look forward to meeting you again at the Playstation theater soon! MH RUILES!!!
Wait for the rest of the album ;)
Bands evolve and individually any artist who has a career as long as Rob's means he's gonna explore different styles of music, just because a band release an album everyone loves doesnt mean theyve then gotta start trying to recreate the same shit over n over, this is clearly from the heart and it's what Rob was feeling at the time, he isn't there to please every fan with every song, that's impossible, he's an artist and puts out his art, if you don't like it, don't listen to it, it's pretty simple. Personally i think this is great, sums up shit in the world at the moment
thanks for the insight Hitman. What national / international band or radio program are you part of again?
I think this was really well said, I totally agree.
1000% well said.. forst comment was cheesy.. as if a raido station would have the balls to play this.
I don't listen to Machine Head but this song is just great. It's got more heart than any of the other songs off this album. You people just listen to patterns, you clearly don't know or appreciate the band.
Love. You
I found a machine head song I like for once and apparently the community reaction is the exact opposite xD
Politically I am almost entirely opposed to the band but I like to see anyone take a genuine stand for what they believe. First amendment should hold no bias!
I’ll tell ya this the only machine head song liked before I actually started to like them was from this day and that song is either loved or hated by fans cause that was when they turned nu metal 😂
Respect, mate.
honestly, I actually like this song musically, but the lyrics reek of democrat elitism.
Fr I cringed so hard the entire time listening to the lyrics after 3:44
You see this is the type of people that we need... we don’t need people to think alike, we need people who are okay to agree to disagree but still respect one another.
My friend, always remember no matter what we’re all human and are entitled to our own opinions and despite your beliefs we’ll get along as humans!
Respect my guy! ✊🏽
The intro reminds me of an electric guitar rendition of the national anthem. The lyrics and message are powerful and drive the song as it builds. Beautiful tears are what I cried listening to this anthem of a generation. Thank you Robb, Dave, Phil and Jared. The Machinehead catalog has been my sound track from adolescence to adulthood.
It sounds nothing like the national anthem
LOVE IT @ 3:20 I got Shivers!!! Welcome Back MH1!!
I LOVE this song.. Speaks volumes about today's world
Most of what it speaks about is the egocentrism of urban democrats like Rob
@@TrueChaoSclx feel free to show yourself the door
Congrats Machine Head on having your own Lulu.
Jeremy Sanchez they already did with that rap album
St. Anger is a fairer comparison tbh
Jeremy Sanchez why are you comparing this album to a Lou Reed album?
I'd rather listen to Lulu than this.
Lulu was a colab album !
I keep coming back to this because it's stuck in my head. I think it's growing on me.
Dude, it's literally been stuck in my head for two week. Unlike any other song has ever been. Literally wake up with it in my head. Took a couple listens but now I totally love it.
stuck with me too...like aids
I’ve been with machine head since the beginning. I love this song. It’s passionate. So many of you lack that. It’s sad. Keep rockin MFNH!!!!
I love it. I like when bands take chances, whether it pans out or not, they're not scared to try something different. As a guitar player, you can only play the same styles over and over until you need something new. I guess nobody likes their acoustic version of Darkness Within because it's too wimpy?
This song plays the truth over and over... It seems like there will always be darkness in humanity 😶
Sounds like pub music for St Paddy's Day.
a good one
...suppose x)
Exactly my thoughts!! It's getting me thirsty already
pub music is better than this.
There are bits that sound like a Dropkick Murphy's song. Not necessarily a bad thing, just an interesting direction.
Ya it's cool they are trying something different. Wish it was something less Folky but that's just personal preference. Not a big Mumford and Sons fan. YEEEESSSHHHH
Boy.. this is fucking risky.
You can tell Rob doesn't give a fuck if he alienates people with his opinion, he wants to get it out no matter what anyone thinks.
This might require a few listens before I can really form a proper opinion on it.
HGCentral yes, by agreeing with the vast majority of media, Hollywood, half of politics, and almost every first world country other than pretty much the US and a few eastern European countries
Makis, you may wonder why so many people agree with this view, maybe because its true.
Viktor Adam: Popular opinion doesn't equate to true. MSM has a bias and an agenda, looks like Robb glued his face too much to television.
ohh the mainstream media oh noooo. I live in a country that has beta version of Trump for 8 years now, being more and more full of himself, tyrannical, corrupt, oppressive and paranoid year by year. His layman gains wealth faster than Mark Zuckerberg. The "mainstream" media tell the truth about him, of course their fan base ignore them as libtard lies. (see the coincidences?). Of course everyone has an agenda in politics, left wing and right wing media too. Trump and his blind followers still remain a problem.
Also I don't need mainstream media to see what kind of destructive things happening around the world. It's enough to read some comment sections, watch some videos, speak with people etc.
now let me comment something actually fitting: "what a good positive song about equality"
go comment something like that ffs
He's being a hypocrite and thinking every person he doesn't agree with must be rascit and a homophob while most are just desperate people who want a change if the last presidential policy didn't work for them he's just being a sjw which isn't worst than some far right hypocrite
@@jaycerivera2553 you sound soOoOoOoO smart.
@Allen_ 85 im not even american
just saying that and leaving btw
I think I'll go watch Machine Head live at Dynamo 1995...
Same 😂
Nice welschap
First reaction: WTF MACHINE HEAD???
Then shit went down. Sounds like some out of control madman that somehow managed to remain positive. And I mean that in a good way. The song was a total curveball, but still I enjoyed it.
Wasn't expecting the thrash metal party hero of my youth to turn into a social commentator. But Rob has always shown the strength of his own convictions and has never been afraid to call out bullshit when he sees it, gutsy song Machine Head well done.
This is the worst Machine Head song I've ever heard. The hell is this fascist shit?
I don't care what the song is about, that it's composed of "four chords that made a million" (Nod to Steven Wilson of Porcupine Tree) , and that it's hated so much. I simply love this song!
Machine Head for life!!!
Rob saw one episode of Sons of Anarchy and said "that's our image until Adidas jumpsuits and cornrows are back in style, guys.
LMFAO
I play this song OVER AND OVER....Rob those lyrics give me goosebumps. Never heard a better song🤘🤘🤘
And everyone on the train clapped
Holy shit, thanks dad.
Be bold, be strange!! Right on!!
GOODBYE MACHINEHEAD! 🖐A FORMER HUGE FAN. 4 concerts later, met in 1994 & 2008, stuck with you guys through The Burning Red & Supercharger. Lata!!
Bye Felicia! 🤙
@@joshuayettou3552 Not you snowflake, nice try
The intro reminds me of the ice cream man that passed by my neighborhood when I was a kid
Im going to the March 3rd show in Oakland! I'm so stoked to see them!!!
Everyone worried about the direction of the band and jumping ship. it's just one song that sounds like this. So just relax the rest of the album will still sound like MH.
It's one thing to be political, it's another to sound whiny.
The other two songs were pretty awful too.
I haven't heard a new song yet that I like... I like every other MH song from the first note till the last, since the beginning of MH. Bloodstone and Diamonds was already ...meeehhh... but so far this albums is just ..nooooooooo!!
The other singles are also fucked up, such a shame🙁
I’m more on board than ever
Man I love how much this good song pisses people off KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK MH
Yeah, Rob, keep up the great work, there are people who keep their fingers crossed for you, the whole time you create, from the beginning... I was at your concert in the Czech Republic in 1994, when you played as a Slayer backing band, I've been watching your band ever since and hold on keep going, because with your work you give people what they need now ... the feeling that it's worth fighting that we're not alone in that shit! Thanks!
His is an important, inspiring voice. The fact that it's controversial points to how necessary it is.
wish i had money years ago at the glasgow barrowlands :(
Sounds different than all previous work, but I'm glad you all are doing the risky stuff you all want to do. Can't wait for the album to drop
I love every album you guys have done. I appreciate that this is different, it's just not for me. Still love you guys and will still be a fan, I hope this album isn't your last.
Mark Fry Ditto!
you speak for me as well.
"The band I like is putting out different sounding music, wahhhhh". Seriously? I like the different stuff. Don't hate on them for trying something different. Keep at it guys \m/
Keep giving your music to us guys!
Personally I have been playing this constantly since first hearing it, and it still gives me goosebumps. Keep being yourselves Machine Head, its why I became a fan back in the 90's and its why I still eagerly look forward to everything you produce. If you just reel out the same tired shite I just wouldn't still be a fan.
All the love to you guys.
Except this wasn't MH 'being themselves'. The only person in the band that wanted this song on the album was Robb, and that's because he had basically turned MH into a solo project.
God forbid people give a shit in their music anymore, right?
Wow. Machine Head doing Irish Punk Folk and I like it. I bet 20 Years ago my youthful narrow mind would've dismissed this as them going soft or commercial(or betraying what they stand for xD). Quite a different story today.
I used to play this song for my oldest son when it was just him and I out and about . 18 months ago the bad guys won, and he is gone.
Sorry man, horrible world… horrible people.
See you guys tonight in Atlanta! Can't wait!
I find it interesting how so many "fans since 94" want to jump ship as soon a a song or two come out that they don't like. Machine Head have around 90 original songs that have been released on albums with about 90% of those being widely respected and adored by metal fans. But there is a vocal minority who love to act like the 2 or 3 songs they don't like accurately represent the band, and that they are selling out, or pushing political agendas, or whining. Great "fans" you are! If you liked MH in 94 it was because they were singing about political subjects, about the world and carving their own path. Guess what?? They are still doing it and nothing has changed!! Machine Fuckin Head!
You said it all! Respect to you Sir!
We recognise that and that is why we recognise that this song is total fucking cancer
Its too bad that you were forcibly held down and made to listen to cancer. I can't imagine how this has affected you. Would you like to talk about it? Oh, wait, I am too busy. I need to go over to Gojira's youtube channel to listen to their music and leave comments about how much I hate it.
^ lol. Or, god-for-fuckin-bid, Attila. Machine Head are the Kings of thrash. Undisputed. Be there anyone who wishes to challenge that title, let them rear their head and be smitten. They have always given their fans the thrash they desire and always, each and every album, have managed to throw in a great song (or more sometimes), that expresses their core beliefs in some manner or another. If you don't respect this song and it's core meaning, all political stances aside, then maybe you should reevaluate your status as a fan of music in general. If you need an explanation, just convert to modern hip-hop. We true fans of lyric and tone are better off without you and your shallow minds.
I love it actually - heard it 10 times now. Agree with everyone who say to go ahead and take risks!
Punk still lives
And on that note, plus the recent news, farewell Machine Head.
Yall trippin this song is amazingly good
Dang!!! This song is on repeat.
A masterpiece ♥
Trend hopping Robb cries bout how his life is hard. Did he ever experienced anything scarier then a broken nail?
A verbal beatdown (or rather schooling) by Edsel Dope, of all people, comes to mind.
I think this is a great song. I don't care what everyone else thinks.
So in Croatia time now is 6 am, and you all think that I woke up to listen this song, no... I was awake whole night because I was too curious about new song... And now I can go to sleep, thank you BASTARDS !!!
👍
Stari koji je ovi k...?!?!
Koje je ovo đubre od pesme sa sve kretenskim tekstom. Ko bi rekao da će MH postati tolike pičkice posle one večeri sa Anselmom.
Bukvalno mi nije zao sto su preskocili nas komsiluk sa ovom evropskom turnejom, sacuvao sam pare za Kreator...
Evening with machine head mi je bio najbolji koncert IKADA...
Posle Blackeninga kao da su otisli u picku materinu.
Ako i odem na koncert sledeci put, pravac prvi red i da mu se najebem majke SJW-ovske na ove pesme
Bro, pjesma je kurac. Zvuci kao shitty verzija irske pub pjesme. Ovo je preedgy, cak i za MH. Ovo bu uzasan album kak mi se cini. A fkt sam volio ovaj album. I jebe mi se politiku, ovo je bas lose.
Obviously, this tune is about the message, and they said it well. Respect!
French Lyrics Traduction :
BATARDS
Hier, j'ai dit à mes fils: "Parfois, les méchants gagnent."
Et ça m'a fait peur sur le monde dans lequel nous vivons
Mais je devais les rassurer que ce ne serait pas pour longtemps
Fils nous devons être nous-mêmes
Nous devons être forts
J'ai dit: "Les garçons, vous êtes l'avenir, alors laissez ceci être une leçon
Il peut venir un jour où vous devez combattre leur agression Parce que la peur et la haine ont gagné aujourd'hui, les ténèbres ont mangé la lumière »
Mais vous regardez tous les deux dans mes yeux, ça va aller.
Dans chaque étape que vous prenez Je suis avec vous tout le chemin
Parce que je mourrais pour vous
Et je fais ce qui est bien pour vous
Dans l'espoir que quand je serai parti
Vous allez continuer
Ces mots que j'ai écrits pour vous
Jusque là…
Je chanterai
Défendez votre territoire
Ne laissez pas les bâtards vous réduire
Soyez audacieux, soyez étrange
Ne laissez pas leurs peurs vous faire peur
Il y a de l'espoir, ils vont changer
Eh bien, j'ai regardé le monde aujourd'hui, je me suis dit "Quel gâchis !"
Ils nous ont dépouillés de nos morales, les ont mis en résidence surveillée.
"Liberté" et "pays" sont les mots dont ils ont besoin pour parler
Un peu de "Dieu", un peu de "liberté", si nous ne sommes pas d'accord, nous sommes faibles
Et tous les politiciens restaient là, oisifs et si béat
Autonomiser les racistes et les voyous du deuxième amendement
Wall Street et les milliardaires, nous ont convaincus qu'ils sont si intelligents
Hurlant, "Votez avec vos portefeuilles, au lieu de vos cœurs!"
Mais nous ne partirons pas !
Vous n'oublierez pas notre nom ! La génération des mauviettes, le PC et le courageux
Les manifestants qui se glissent le long de ces rues de misère
Et donc… Je chanterai
Défendez votre territoire
Ne laissez pas les bâtards vous réduire
Soyez audacieux, soyez étrange
Ne laissez pas leurs peurs vous faire peur
Il y a de l'espoir, nous allons changer
Nous allons changer
Nous allons changer
Non Non Non Non Non
Nous disons: "Non, non, non, non, non. Non non Non Non Non. Putain non !
Non, non, non, non, non. Non non Non Non Non. Putain non !
Alors donnez-nous toutes vos pédales, tous vos noires, et vos latinos
Donnez-nous tous vos musulmans, les soi-disant terroristes
Nous les accueillerons à bras ouverts et les mettrons dans notre mélange
Nous sommes mieux ensemble maintenant, embrasser notre différence
Souviens-toi qu'il y a de l'amour
Nos mots peuvent arrêter leurs armes
Oubliez les ploucs
Vivant dans le passé
Nous n'y retournons jamais maintenant, nous avons atteint la masse critique !
Et donc…
Je chanterai
Je défends mon territoire
Je laisserai pas les bâtards me réduire
Je suis audacieux, je suis étrange
Je ne laisserai pas leurs peurs me faire peur
Il y a de l'espoir, ils vont changer
Sounds like jesus talking to me 🙂
Music is such a blessing, i love God
Best track off the album so far... (although I don't mind "Beyond the Pale" either).
Guys, MH are composed of 4 adults, who have their own opinion and have the right to have their own opinion. Also, they have the right to make their own music. They make music because they want to put their own feelings in it. That is the most important, even everyone should bloody well learn to respect that! Bastards is just a song about a political stance. Stop whining about it, and go listen to something else if you don't like it!
This song does move me. Even if it's not MH style, this turns up my day
i have a bad temper to 2 people at my school and it go like this most of the time:' why are drumming while you just punched me me: uhhh nothing '' like this song has helped me
Very very good vocals !
This might be just me, but I absolutely love this song!
Yeah you’re the only person that’s likes this song. Fuckhead.
I’m convinced Robb deleted all the negative comments cuz this comment section is so much different from what I remember lol
2 yrs later and I was thinking the same thing.
Fantastic 🤘
I like this song
Nevermind, now I hate this song
What changed ur mind?
I tell my son these same words everyday and I'm glad there are other people out there who do too. LOVE AND METAL GUYS...and as always, excellent job Dave, you truly are one of the best...
Love you brother
I don't understand why people hate this song that much or hating Machine Head for making that song ? I loooove the song and I love how Rob sounds !!
I’ve been a fan of their older and mid-career stuff for years. The Blackening, TTAOE, BME, TMTC, etc. I could never understand why they received so much hate amongst the metal community. “Their riffs and songwriting are badass!” I would say. Finally I decided to give this a listen… wow. It’s sad to think that this is all most people probably think of when they hear the name Machine Head.
In the USA metal is often related to fascism, lack of education, hate and trumpery. In the rest of the world, Metal is about free thinking, individuality,personal strength, intelligence and rationalism. You dislike their messages because you are a Yank and so you've been marinaded in bigotry and hate and fear since birth. But thats not the normality for the rest of the civilised world.
Amazing song. I love that you dare to take risks, looking forward to the new album!
I love it!
Machine Head and Robb Flyn have grown so much in my consideration...
Today, of all days. Thank you Robb
It's Machine Head! If they played near anyone of you, you'd be first at the door. I can't wait to hear this live and watch everyone sing every tune from this album
Ok... I'm gonna go listen to The Blackening now.
Conor Somers for fucking real! This catharsis album is NOT doing it for me AT ALL!
@@QuantumMind88 Beyond the pale is pretty good tho
@@Luis-pi7fh ripping off a strapping young lad song, of course it was gonna be good lmao
It feels like he has a good heart but a small culture, all due respect.
I still think this is the best metal song ever written.
It seems I'm in the minority based on the comments, but this was one of my favourites on the album.
Finally, somebody is more open minded about music! I salute you
I like this song.
Yesterday I told my sons, "Sometimes the redhats win"
And that it made me scared about the world that we live in
But I had to reassure them that it wouldn't be for long
"Sons we have to be ourselves, we have to be strong"
I said, "Boys you are the future, so let this be a lesson
There may come a day you have to fight off their aggression
'Cause fear and hatred won today, the darkness ate the light
But both of you look in my eyes, it'll be all right"
In every step you take
I'm with you all the way
'Cause I would die for you
To do what's right for you
In hopes that when I'm gone
You'll carry on these words I wrote for you
'Til then
I'll sing
Stand your ground
Don't let the bastards grind you down
Be bold, be strange
Don't let their fears make you afraid
Its funny how much hate this song gets because this is one of a handful of MachineHead songs that actually got me into ALL of their music
Super Punk influence, powerfull shit love it!
You know, I really don't mind the change in musical direction. I think the music is actually fine.
For me it's the lyrics that are iffy. Yelling obscenities at people on the other side of the political spectrum...
The last thing we need is more polarization. Instead we should try to understand each other.
"the people on the other side" can't and won't try to understand. That's entirely the point.
That's what both sides think of the other
Ever since Trump took office, their have been more and more recorded accounts of racism and discrimination. These people are coming out of the woodwork since they feel validated because the president says the first thing that comes to his mind, they feel they have the right to confront people. Don't act so naive.
xXAscendingPhoenixXx Yeah, there was a surge of hate crimes after he won: by the Left, against whites and conservatives. Riots, severing friendships and family ties... the Left exposed just how ugly they are.
Extremists feel validated when someone who tolerates their particular brand of extremism takes power. It happens, yes. I literally said I'll condemn extremism any day of the week.
I oppose is notion that, because some people within a certain group have revealed themselves to be something, that everyone within that group must be the same way.
I oppose the trend to simplify the past election as one of pro-bigotry vs anti-bigotry in an attempt to vilify the opposing side.
I oppose oversimplification.
I oppose wanting to believe the absolute worst about your enemies in order to make yourself feel better.
I oppose bias.
I oppose escalation and polarization.
Defining an outgroup by their worst members, THAT is naive. And worse, that's the very path that leads to extremist thinking in its own right.
I do not believe it is alright to define Trump's voters by a bunch of internet trolls and militant fascists. Call me crazy.
Machine Head - Bastards
this allbum was fine and helped me through dificult times as new human reborn to be fair.
I legitimately love this. Such a nice change of direction, it's gonna sound awesome live.
I can appreciate the genuine passion that obviously went into making this but I've got to be honest, the song itself doesn't do anything for me... (still going to give this album a fair chance though once it comes out.)
The only whining I see is from you all over the comments you brainless fucking loser
J.J. He lost the popular vote. Don't kid yourself.
I've never really wanted to know anything about the political leanings of metal musicians I admire. My fear was that they would be an unbridgeable gap that will separate me from the defiance of their music, and lifestyle that I support. I respect MH for all they have risked to be where they are.
Celebrities waxing poetic about politics, and losing favor with their fans is nothing new. Cali is a lideral sanctuary.
It is for these reasons that I cannot support the band with my hard earned dollars. I was better off not knowing. So we're you. I will give praise for communicating your displeasure like an adult, and not throwing hash tags and fake triggers.
i don't mind the song but why do i start thinking about Dennis Leary's 'Asshole' song lol
my sentiment exactly
You guys just won a new fan 💖💖💖
It's a beautiful song
Love this. Great song, great message. Wasn’t a fan before but that has just changed.
It being political isn't a problem. It sounding like ass is.
Seriously, leave the Dropkick Murphy's to do this kind of thing. The fact 10 years on we got here from The Blackening is ridiculous.
your music taste doesnt fit to this one. thats why you're crying. and thats ok!
nutoga He isn't crying. They straight up reverted to the style of their first few albums. It's just unfortunate.
Sir Berus as a true fan you also don’t want them to fail miserably at it
The Blackening has political songs (e.g. Clenching the Fists of Descent) and they're great!
lol. a true fan isnt closed minded. everyone knows machine head does what machine head wants to do. it was always like that. will always be. every *true fan* knows the burning red and supercharger and i love em both.
if i want to listen to burn my eyes i'll do that but i certainly dont want a new record to sound like burn my eyes.
I encourage EVERYONE to go see them if you have a chance to do so. I too was sceptical about the new album, but I just saw them this week and they were incredible (of course). They played several of their new songs and they were fucking bad ass!
I really like it.
Even if this isn't one of my favourite MH songs I still find the emotion and honesty pretty damn awesome. Robb has such a brilliant voice, even after all these years (fan since 94').
