Lyrics:
God the nation’s hitman
Hate tied to our chest,
Grace and compassion
Have died bloody deaths,
The voice in our head
The voice on the tube,
The voice tellin’ us
We’re all gonna lose
When gold is the price of health
And debt the path of life
And jobs fall by the wayside
Many millions ask why
Blank runs the country
Blank pounds my head
Blank is the color
The color of dead
And the lights go out
And the house grows cold
And I wonder what it’s like
To be a billionaire
In America.
We’re shoved tight and hard
Into a singular mold
Like so many more generations before
If uniforms were possible
And wires could be physical
We’d be tied tight to the dead temple floor.
Revolution
In the garden
From the wall I hope to see
Revolution
In the garden
We need someone we can believe
And the lights go out
And the house grows cold
And I am learning what it’s like
To be a billionaire
In America
We measure our days
And we measure our lives
By the lies we are told
And the truths we disguise
But time will not wait
And we need a change
The last chance is coming
And it won’t come again
Revolution
In the Garden
From the wall I hope to see
Revolution
In the garden
We need someone we can believe
Revolution
In the garden
We need someone we can believe
They are X and this album is on fire! They show why after 40 years they are still Los Angeles punk legends! We dearly love them. As friends, tour mates and inspirations. You cannot go wrong with this. Dead Rock West

Roaring out of the gate astride a hook that won't be denied with a fuck-you attitude that's far outlived the expression it's delivered through, X debut album stands as the pinnacle of West Coast punk and one of the best of the genre at large. You also get a scorching cut of The Doors' 'Soul Kitchen', one of punk's most enduring anthems in the title track, and a closer so tight, catchy and emotionally resonating that it more than makes up for the relative dud it follows. - 9.5/10 CptHatemonger
