about

Over the past few years we’ve spent a lot of time touring through mainland Europe. The German city of Leipzig has become somewhat of a second base to us. The first night we spent in Leipzig we learned that the local people were having to go out every tuesday evening and counter protest against far right activists. This was every single week.

It was here that we first heard the ZSK anthem ‘Antifascista’ and were told by our new friends that this was their nazi fighting song. This song’s to honour the people of Leipzig and everywhere else that have to go out and counter the far right wherever they rear their heads. We wanted to use the video to raise awareness and promote the good work of the rising number of ‘red gyms’. Special thanks to Gordy and Nik from Cambridge Socialist Sports Club for letting us film them training and to 0161 Community Gym Manchester for all the great stuff they do for youths in their local communities. If you want to learn more about red gyms heres a quick introduction
www.weareplanc.org/blog/press-release-from-network-of-red-gyms/

Special thanks also go out to Steve Phipps @ Melpomene Audio for all his work recording and mixing and Ed Hall @ Silk House Studios for mastering it and making it sound so big. As with all our videos massive thanks sent to Jamie for getting our ideas down visually. Links to everyone’s stuff is at the bottom of this post.

Obviously everything is up in the air at the minute so we have no idea when we’re gunna be able to get back out on the road to promote all our new stuff so if you could help us out by sharing this around as much as possible that would be a massive help. As with all other bands & artists currently this is having pretty big financial knock on effects for us so any help would be greatly appreciated. We’re going to have 20 very limited edition screen prints of the singles artwork up for sale as well as t shirts with the artwork on.

To make sure you get one before they go. Hopefully see you all soon, stay safe and look after each other x

lyrics

STOMP THEM DOWN

When there's cracks in the foundations and the gloss is wearing thin
STOMP EM DOWN
It's never too long before the rot sets in
STOMP EM DOWN
STOMP EM DOWN, DOWN, DOWN

By the boot or the ballot, boot or the ballot we'll sound
We wont give them up one inch of ground
STOMP THEM DOWN

So we cloak and provoke for the lessons not learnt
STOMP EM DOWN
Before you choke on the smoke of the pages burnt
STOMP EM DOWN
Down treading Upsetters on the counter attack
STOMP EM DOWN
For every step forward force them 2 steps back
STOMP EM DOWN
STOMP EM DOWN, DOWN, DOWN

By the boot or the ballot, boot or the ballot we'll sound
We wont give them up an inch of ground
STOMP THEM DOWN

The only platform your getting is the one that falls away at you're feet
Full speed ahead til bone breaks
From the page to the street
Never retreat
Until a new fruit swings from those poplar trees
If you can’t pick a side when they come to pass
YOU AINT ON OURS

YEEEES! YEEEES! Twenty years later than I would have liked, but hells yes! I stumbled upon "No manners in Ireland" yesterday, cueing the easiest binge buy in a while. This is a nice blend of skillful instrumentalism, great lead voice and good tunes. The old Toasters / Madness / Bosstones fan in me is bouncing off the ceiling again. Thank you for that. You seem to be gathering steam as well. Here's to a long run! raphaelhythlodai
