Capitalist Kids: Sarah/Ayn (2012)
It's clear that Austin's The Capitalist Kids are fixated on old-school Lookout Records bands (more HERE), what with the above single's homage to Mr. T Experience's Love is Dead album and their Too Big Too Fail CD nodding to Screeching Weasel and The Queers as well as MTX. However, as this tribute to Republican boner-bait Sarah Palin and Ayn Rand shows, the band's originality resides in its sarcastic take on curent American politics, which comes off like a mash-up of early Green Day and The Daily Show.

Yes, FUCK YOU
ReplyDeleteWhy are anonymous Republican trolls so sensitive and so hostile all at once?
DeleteThere is nothing as mindless as criticizing Palin. She is what people SAY they want in a politician: high integrity, outsider, bi-partisan, accomplishments. There have been 30 lawsuits against her which have ALL been either dismissed or defeated. The fascist attacks on her are what should be criticized. Today's hipsters are like the useful-idiots of 1917 Russia.
ReplyDeleteI know when someone's working right out of the anonymous-Republican-Troll handbook as soon as I see the phrase 'useful idiots'.
DeleteAmerika deserves Palin
ReplyDeleteAmerika?....really?.....how fucking quaint...do you also wear a fedora? What did WE do to deserve the bastard who's in the White House now...?....Amerika.....wow....what a fucking idiot...oh, and he's anonymous too!
DeleteWell both sides of this debate were pretty sad.
DeleteGreat lyrics, great tunes!
