What you don't mention about Danny Nedelko, which is key to the song's message, is how they mention the typical immigrants that people see in the UK all the time, the ones that are on the receiving end of any anti-immigrant sentiment (the nigerian mother of three, the polish butcher etc.) and they put them right next to the successful immigrants that we love in the UK (Mo Farah, Freddie Mercury etc.) to highlight the public's hypocrisy towards immigrants, we like them when they win Bake Off or Gold medals at the olyimpics, but we hate them when they're just the normal person down the road living alongside us.

The "baby shoes for sale, never worn" lyric in June is a variant of a somewhat famous six-word story (presumably by Ernest Hemingway). The original story is "For sale: baby shoes, never worn."

Yknow I feel what Anthony doesnt get about the album is the parts about the British class system cus he comes to it from an American pov Like the line about James bond isnt about a disinterest in mainstream franchises but how James bond is a upper class murderer who serves his own In fact the entire song I'm scum isnt a tounge in cheek "yeah I'm bad" but I "I'm not posh, I'm not a Tory, I went to a state school and I'm fuckin proud of that all"

Wow, you truly know nothing about punk then. That's embarrassing. What a typical millennial internet bandwagon hipster with zero serious knowledge or respect for the authentic, novel, meaningful underground genre/art/culture movements of the past. Punk is borderline almost DEAD in recent years/decades compared to it's state from the 70s through 90s. This album cannot even begin to compare to "Repeater" by Fugazi or "Atomizer" by Big Black or "Goat" by Jesus Lizard or "The Modern Dance" by Pere Ubu or "Fire of Love" by Gun Club or "Psychic Powerless" by Butthole Surfers or "Hot Animal Machine" by Henry Rollins or "Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables" by Dead Kennedy's, and many many others (these are just a random sampling of prominent examples off the top of my head... there truly are so many masterpieces of punk, especially if you include "post-punk" and "new wave" and "no wave" and "industrial punk")

Why would you so closely follow the arbitrary and frequently crappy, clueless, compromising, confused, or aimlessly lost critical opinions of this youtube entertainer? He's just an ironic edgy contemporary internet hipster doofus who casually chats about music in a silly meme-ish video form as part of an entertainment schtick so he can make money doing something he's interested in. Are people that lost and deranged in this postmodern period that someone like Fantano is taken seriously as an important music and culture critic? I suppose so. That's mostly because there is little to no real culture anymore in terms of meaningful art or historical scenes or movements. It's all artificial: commercial hegemony and then hollow, ironic internet virtual subcultures such as the musical hipster and eclectic connoisseur centralized in /mu and rateyourmusic and shit like that, with critics like Fantano and Pitchfork having been given totally unjustified precedence for a while, simply because they're filling an unfilled role first (as the internet changes everything, whoever has the idea and initiative to become a sort of "internet figure" first reaps the rewards... as long as it's within the virtual culture of cyber-commercialism). There has been a profoundly knowledgeable guru and genius regarding music, culture, and art (in temporal entirety - past, present, and future) who's technically had an internet presence long before Pitchfork or Fantano and he also adapted to the new virtual cyber era of music since the 2000s brilliantly and to this day is still more tasteful and "hip/cool" and incisive and prescient in his critical perspectives and guides than anybody else... but his website is relegated to obscurity because he doesn't work within a commercialized framework. He is an independent critic who has put out his tremendous volume and quality of work totally for free, as a true labor of passion, no profit incentive, and thus never compromising in the slightest. Many of you might know who I'm referring to (he's too unique and profound a critic to be mistaken for anybody else) and yet most of you completely avoid him or only tentatively dabble because he gives your fragile millennial hipster egos fear and discomfort.

I appreciate your regular references to Swans, you can tell that their musical and lyrical influence is scattered throughout. The vocal performance of Samaritans gave me instant flashbacks to Filth.
