“Steal and lie to get your fix”
Here’s a fantastic track from Sacred, the new album from The Obsessed. I mentioned the other day that hearing just 30 seconds of this song was enough to sell this album to me, and I’ve not been disappointed. It’s mostly built around an irresistible wind-in-the-hair Motorhead riff but the song peaks with its pounding bar-fight of a chorus. From the lyrics I gather the victim of the crushing is more likely to be a punk of the “worthless person” variety than a punk of the musical persuasion. Either way, this songs deals out a no-nonsense crushing, pure and simple… and that’s why it’s song of the week. Enjoy.
YES YES YES! \m/ \m/ We’ve heard a zillion songs like this before, but it doesn’t frickin’ matter does it? No it does not! Go go go!

Also, I dunno. Do the metalheads and the punkers still dislike each other? Or is that a thing of the past?

I’d imagine it’s a thing of the past. Like I said in the post I don’t think this song is about musical genres. Especially given Wino’s past with St. Vitus and SST.

I like when those first impressions of a track prove to be an accurate reflection of the album as a whole – certainly doesn’t seem like a worthless person song!

A mean looking trio, eh? I think I could get into this, but it took 43 seconds to sell it to me.

Careful. They might decide you’re a punk and try to crush you.
