Such a pleasure to see Raymond Pettibon’s Sir Drone at Anthology Film Archives last night. Mike Watt (who plays the part of Duane, requiring a heroic struggle to play bass badly) writes:
pettibon presents the early days of los angeles punk rock not as simple metaphor for the human condition, but as a singular attempt to break the organic chain of metaphysical fate. there and then and forever after, music was to be no longer music. hippies were to be no longer hippies. everything was instead to be punk. but punk as an end - a squelching of artistic attempt. more, a transcendence of artistic statement itself, by starting with human material that is entirely artless - punk!

Reagan Youth
“USA”
In U.S., A’s for apathy
Not bullshit democracy
Red white and blue is all you see
But does it mean you’re really free?
In U.S., A’s for anarchy
Not bullshit democracy
I want total liberty
I want peace and anarchy
They tell us how to act and be
Well what they meant was slavery
With standards and authority
How can you think you’re really free?
In U.S., A’s for anarchy
Not bullshit democracy
I want total liberty
I want peace and anarchy
Do what you want be what you be
Don’t fall for their hypocrisy
Open you mind! Wake up and see!
True freedom is anarchy!
In U.S., A’s for anarchy
Not bullshit democracy
I want total liberty
I want peace and anarchy!
