my friend's girlfriend and i were hanging out at a wooden bridge which we call "the spot" today (irrelevant info i guess lol) and she had a ton of cd's, one of which happened to be an Operation Ivy album. We put it in my laptop and I was mind blown when I heard some of their songs lol.
because they wrote great songs about life in general and the struggles we all face and they quit before they sold out . Jesse Michaels understands why staying diy is important . He's basically a genius and my hero
Oh hey this is my account from when I was 14 and I wanted a bass so bad!! I’m almost 18 now, and can play every operation ivy song. My favourite is vulnerability

Sean Richards There are more than one bad one, but I never extrapolated their deeds to the many, those are words that you put into my mouth. Nor do I hold anyone guilty for deeds which are not their own. Your judgemental attitude is unwelcome, and your abusive language has been reported. From a Libertarian, not a liberal, BTW
This song should be required listening in every high school. Never trust a cop.
While I agree with your sentiment. This song is actually about people in the punk scene who act like cops, not actual cops.
Its a good song. If young people want to understand how to interact with cops they should listen to James duane not jesse, as much as I love him
Do you have to force yourself with power and control
Do you feel a need to live your life playing up a role
Intimidating people with your wall of sight and sound
You and your kind destroy our underground

All the fucking bullshit when will it ever stop
The comparison is obvious: you're just a fucking cop
Officer, you act like an animal, you're out of control
Officer, what the hell is wrong with you, YEAH!

Absolutely timeless. I was rocking out to this in 93, and it's still one of my go to bands on you tube.
unfortunately this song is still relevant.

Every sing song on this album is still relevant! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!
2019 way too relevant
I just posted this to my Facebook today saying the same thing. 4 years later, just as relevant as ever.

That slap-bass tho.
he uses a pick, he just strums real hard on the G string
You're hearing a pluck, not a slap.
The bass is kickass

Maybe you shouldn't be tools of the state which enables these cops, then you'll be able to breath.
I love op ivy.

No it's not. Ignorance is the problem. Like yourself.

Listen to the rancid song "Civillian ways" Support troops, but not war!
Still here
I think the fuzz is more likely to be used in the 60s, so a better question would be, "what were you born in the 40s?"
@chiller997 Ha ha...the "fuzz"...what were you born in the 60's? Lol.
im lovin it !
@DannyBoyo68 i wish, even though not directed to me lol

He was one guy. Race wasn't the issue. Ignorance like you speak is the real issue. Let that media control you. It won't control the real punk rockers.

There are no good cops. Plenty of articles about that.

Dont feel bad Dude, I WAS born in the 60s ;-)
dear conservative; you have some cool ideas, but how do you justify the actions of your slaves in the police department?
wtf are u yapping about
One bad cop doesn't speak for the rest of them. If that's the case then you're guilty for all the racial deaths as well. Simple minded dumbass
