We've been blessed with this planet that
Makes us look so inferior. But there was no
Strict order here so it made us feel unsure.
And someone thought maybe if the planet
Could be paved - and changed everything so
Life was easier, then we would not feel
Afraid...
And this fear that springs from nowhere
Accelerates itself in our own minds.
It Begins to take control to the point that we
Find that we feel so helpless - that we
Feel so far down this hole. And it seems
That the only way out is to somehow gain
Control. So we lay down our rules and we
Begin our construction. With our invented
Authority we begin our destruction...
Started thousands of years ago and now
There's no escaping - concrete and steel
Are everywhere so we close our eye...
I'm not afraid to stop.

Crimpshrine è stata una band punk rock proveniente da Berkeley, California. Formata nel 1982 da Aaron Cometbus, fondatore del celebre fanzine punk Cometbus, e dal suo amico Jeff Ott, il gruppo ha rapidamente guadagnato un seguito all'interno delle comunità DIY. Considerati uno dei gruppi punk più importanti, soprattutto nella scena della Bay Area, Crimpshrine è noto per la sua musica cruda e potente, influenzata da band come Black Flag e The Minutemen. Il loro sound si caratterizza per riff di chitarra distorti, batteria aggressiva e testi politici e introspettivi. Tra i brani più rappresentativi figurano "The Last Time", "I Don't Care" e "No More Heroes". Crimpshrine ha pubblicato diversi album in vinile, tra cui l'album di debutto omonimo del 1984 e il seguito "Live at the Gilman Street Project" del 1985. La band si è sciolta nel 1987, ma la sua influenza sul panorama punk rimane evidente.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
