Anticitizen is anarchopunk band formed in early 2012 in Washington, NJ.Anticitizen - Live in Allentown live tape was released on Saturday May 25th and feature 15 tracks recorded live at a recent show.A band who’s purpose for existence was to annotate and criticize political issues and politicians and promote peace and anarchy, had completely neglected a war being fought by their country on their, at the time, current recording. By their own standards, they had done well with this tape. They point out that the world is full of greed, unhealthy pride, anger, resentment, lust, rape, envy, jealousy, spitefulness, dishonesty & homophobia and that these are just other words for fear. They say we must strive so that all people believe in peace if we are to evolve as a species. Focus on goals other than monetary wealth and embrace the similarities between races rather than worry about the differences. All common sense really but not a situation that many politicians, money men and militarists would benefit from.So Anticitizen are angry and frustrated. Which means they release great music. The lyrics are equally simplistic, yet equally effective. The incredibly harsh and angry way that they are delivered only adds to their raw truth. Anticitizen"s lyrical pursuits are limited to a couple of subjects: namely, war and the system.This simplicity really only adds to Anticitizen’s sound and live atmosphere, however.Put simply, this live tape is the best example of best catchy hoarse noise.Available in 5 different color cassettes here:
