Αν δεν έχεις ούτε καν ακουστά τους γερόλυκους του νεοΰορκεζικου hardcore punk, τότε κάνε λίγα βήματα πίσω και δίαβασε κανένα βιβλίο (τζάμπα γράφει ο Ανεσιάδης;). Έχεις χρόνο ως την Τρίτη 18 Ιουνίου, όταν οι Νεοϋορκέζοι θα επισκεπτούν και πάλι την Αθήνα για να βάλουν φωτιά μαζί με τους Grade2 (FB Event).
Στα ατελείωτα χρόνια καριέρας τους οι Αμερικανοί έχουν ουκ ολίγες φορές, αναφερθεί στο περίφημο unity. Την ενότητα όλων όσων εφάπτονται στην punk αντικουλτούρα δηλαδή.
Δεν ήταν το μοναδικό τους focus βέβαια, αλλά ας κάνουμε μια ιστορική αναδρομή σε όσα τραγούδια τους, μιλάνε για την ενότητα, την “οικογένεια” και όλα τα γειτονικά τους νοήματα.
Που άλλου θα ξεκινήσουμε παρα από το εμβληματικό “Gotta go”:
From the east coast to the west coast Gotta, gotta, gotta go True sounds of a revolution Gotta, gotta, gotta go In our hearts and in our souls Gotta, gotta, gotta go United we stand, divided we fall Gotta, gotta, gotta go
–Never walk alone (The American Dream just died, 2015)
Let me tell you about our family A bond so pure, so strong When I said just us I meant it from my heart Nothing can stop this passion of ours
-Us against the world (My life My way, 2011)
Through this movement we found our voice Us against the world That’s how it was, how it is, it never stops Us against the world To make a mark and be heard, you fight your way to the top
-United Blood (United Blood EP, 1983)
Talk about unity, talk about conformity You don’t want to support the scene Why don’t you get the fuck away from me
-United and strong (Victim in Pain, 1984)
United and strong, united and strong United and strong, blacks and whites United and strong, punks and skins United and strong for everyone
-City Streets (My life My way, 2011)
We stood hard, we always held our own We stood strong, it’s all we’ve ever known Streetwise is what you had to be Just to survive on these city streets
-Conquer and Divide (Get Loud!, 2019)
It’s all a waste of time It’s all a bunch of lies It’s us against us Conquer and divide
Δέσμιος της μουσικής, είλωτας των συναυλιών, εθισμένος στα σκληρά...riffs, διπολικός μεταξύ metal και hardcore punk, έχει κάνει χρόνια τώρα πολιτιστικό crossover και δεν αρνείται κανένα ιδίωμα της rock που του τη σηκώνει...την τρίχα.
