I was VERY HESITANT to publish this. I almost posted this under an alternate title ("WE DESPISE THE BOURGEOISIE" which I figured out even before I heard it), but no. I had to censor the title. It's not a word we use politely in the United States. It's a little more casually tossed out in Australia and elsewhere.
And acclaimed Australian MUDRAT is absolutely from Australia, and he's got some RADICAL views. His album SOCIAL COHESION - which was shortlisted for the Australian Music Prize - is in my conversation for favorite album of 2025. It's raw and angry, and a MUST listen.
So, I ultimately decided to post this. I may have fallen in the category of his white friends who might be initially scared by his rhetoric, but at the end of the day, I absolutely don't wish his silence. I want to amplify his voice.
In this song, he makes it very clear his views on Matt Walsh. I wonder if Matt Walsh has heard this song? I am totally going to tag him today.
Anyway, I'm opening with a live version of this song, because I think it's the way this song is supposed to be heard and experienced. The audience is SUPPOSED to tell 'em they can get fucked.
Anyway, I wasn't kidding about the alternate title. It's a SLIGHT remix - with a different 2nd verse that fits better in my opinion - but it still sounds like the same song.
