This is the first song Caleb wrote for YTN and it's when I knew he and I were lyrical soulmates. I love the disdain and anti-nationalism in his lyrics. He's a rad dude.
lyrics
V1
We drew lines in the sand as if the wind wouldn't blow it all away.
We forget we're accidents divided by a roulette game we play.
Twist the antenna in your head; is the signal coming through?
Our hearts swollen with pride, leave bloodstains in red white and blue.
:Chorus:
This land is my land, its my land, I'll defend it with a torch.
But it'll be hard to see the borders once the earth is scorched.
We've got god on our side, in rockets overhead he hovers
Don't make us call on our big brother.
V2
Never forget son those boys who died
For your freedom of silence, your freedom to buy.
Take your pick of the first world, enjoy all the luck
All because it's where your parents fucked.
:Chorus:
This land is my land, its my land, I'll defend it with a torch.
But it'll be hard to see the borders once the earth is scorched.
We've got god on our side, in rockets overhead he hovers
Don't make us call on our big brother.

SKA! IS! NOT! DEAD! This album feels like the ultimate crash-course in third-wave ska, and is an absolute must-listen if you're a fan of the genre. James Tudhope

Been away for a while got some more memory so I'm back! What better way to celebrate than buying The Holophonics Discography. Fun Ska cover songs and some awesome original songs too! Rhokeheart
Knockout debut from a Buffalo, New York-based hardcore band who like their riffs sick, their drums fast, and their choruses sticky-sweet. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 28, 2024
