• When you live in a capitalistic society, the currency of the dissemination of information goes through capitalistic channels. Would Noam Chomsky object to his works being sold at Barnes & Noble? No, because that's where people buy their books. We're not interested in preaching to just the converted. It's great to play abandoned squats run by anarchists, but it's also great to be able to reach people with a revolutionary message, people from Granada Hills to Stuttgart.

Lyrics

• It'll start with a spark, and a great fire will grow.
  • California's Dark

• In my nightmares the streets are aflame, and in my dreams it's much the same.
  • One Man Revolution

• Sacrifice and neon lights slave ships don't wait. Love many, trust few, and don't be late
  • One Man Revolution

• Yeah, I support my troops
  They wave black flags
  They wear black masks
  All the roads are closed
  Smoke is rising from the fields
  The monsters left their cages
  An angel set them free.
  • Flesh Shapes The Day

• Can you explain to the mothers
  And the fathers of those
  Who come riding home in coffins
  In their military clothes?
  • Battle Hymns

• You don't gotta be loud, son, to be heavy as shit!
  • Maximum Firepower

• The skin you're in makes choices for you.
  • Maximum Firepower

• Thought hard about this next line
  Pretty sure it's true.
  If you take a step towards freedom
  It'll take two steps towards you.
  • Maximum Firepower
