STRAIGHT NOISE

derogatory & ignorance don't hurt us

"Although we've always played our sound very extreme, we still try to think of other ways to do more nausea, to upset people who want HC/punk to sound all the same."

"Nausea is a 'sickness' of living, the situation of life. We extend this to what happens in the world, and this is mostly what our lyrics are about.  Also Scut tried reading Jean Paul Sartre in the dark once...."

ALL OMINOUS

do you watch helicopters flying in death

radioactive powder onto your skin
