ELIMINATE THE SYMBOLS OF HATEIII
-it's not too late •••
ALL LYRICS BY AL Q• ., 1984
------------------------------------------------------"Symbols Of Hate" is about the growth in nazi symbolism i .n the
punk/hardcore scene. These swastikas, sieg-heiling and other elements
of neo-fascism are sickening. Isn't our so-called "scene" supposed to
stress open-mindedness and embrace all people, no matter what background
they come from~ Swastikas aren't funny or cocl.. Too many people just
embrace some philosophy or trend because it's the "in" thing to do,
without really thinking about what they're doing, or who they may be
hurting in the process.. Think about your actions •••
"Our World" is about how the US government meddles in foreiEfl affairs,
most recently Central America- how they want to make the world "safe for
democracy." It's about how they back right-wing fascist butchers like
Somoza in Nicaragua, becuase these butchers--will allow American companies to plunder the country's resources and how the CIA is engaged in
a covert war to overthrow the leftist, Sandinista government in Nicaragua.
The song does not express any support for any Central American government,
it just tries to make the underlying point that the US govern~nt really
has no business interfering in other countries' political affairs. Lets
take care ef our own backyard, first •••
"Industrial Robot" is self-explanatory.. Too many lives are wasted,
just pushing ahead, at any cost, for personal economic gain. A dehumanization occurs as people become nothing more than "Corporate Men (or women).
These people may become wealthy, . but, more often than not, their individuality becomes compromised •. That's not the way I want to live ••• No company is going to tell me how tn live my life •••.

... At first I had nothing against Duran
Duran (except that they made boring rec ords) . Another pop b a nd , so what? That
was before I saw, in my very own room ,
the bloated, corrupt face of Simon leBon
the Great White Hunter, as he and the
boys roam through third world countries~
finding semi-nude fashion models around
every corner. In Duranland, women are
stripped, oiled and painted , the exhibition taking place as the Durans observe. The supposedly "artistic softcore" Girls On Film is no more than your
average Penthouse fantasy-borin g and offensive. There ' s nothing uglier than attempting to hide all this filth in cheap
"art" gimmicks . In the Duranimagina tion,
a black person is required to play the
animal ' s role: he ' s the prancing , g-stringe
"horse" in Girls On Film; she's the savage jungle creature just dying to be
tamed (raped) by leBurn in Hungry Like the Wolf . Actually, to be fair, leBon is
an animal in this one too- he's the one crashing through the jungle like a
stuck pig in heat. How about the boys - the rich white boys on vacation in "Rio"?
Just like a travel brochure , isn't it? Visit today ! Admire the cute little brown
kids in t heir natural habitat! Get one cheap ! Get souvineers cheap ! Models on
the house ! In an interview, Simon proudly revealed that he takes an active part
in the ideas for these videos. What these mini episodes reveal to me is a sex ist, racist, imperialist who just couldn't like people very much, because there
is not one attractive portrayal of humanity in them .
. . . There's a show on TV about a teenage computer genius and his friends, called
"Whiz Kids" . I'd just like to know if good old Ronnie you-know-who had a hand
in this one. In the few times I ' ve happened to see it , the evil Russkies have
been the main attraction. In the first episode I saw , commie spies kidnapped
the boy genius and planned to use him (to overthrow the U.S . military, of
course) and then kill him! Naturally, the U.S . Agents rushed in at the last
minute ! and saved the innocent young traitor, who then showed his patriotism
by weeping in his C . I . A. dad's a r ms . The second time I saw it, the Ruthless
Russkies were shown as so corrupt that they planned to double-cross both
countries :" Da, Boris , I ' l l take Club Med over the Black Sea any day !" On yet
another show, agents actually kidnapped a super - intelligent talking dolphin will those Iron Curtain brutes stop at nothing in their cruel harrassment of the
poor old U. S . of A . ?
.. . By the way, who ' s been watching P.T . L. lately? If you ' ve been following all
the recent triumphs of Heritage, U.S.A., you might have witnessed the truly
terrifying spectacle of thousands of chris t ians , (packed into the awsomely
huge new P . T . L . cathedral) raising their arms in a sa lu te to god . The salute
was an exact imitation of the old seig heil wave, no kidding, and it just so
happened that all those rigid limbs were pointing more in the direction of
Tammy and Jim than up to the lord . The same evening the r e was also a torchlight procession that evoked images of the K . K . K. But the real highlight of the
whole spectacle had to be when Jim read a telegram from Ronnie and Nancy (which
should give one an idea of the power of P . T . L.), congratulatin g P . T . L . on
their " victory" . And just a short while ago we were treated to the sight and
purple - faced Jim Bakker screaming , " I am GOD !! You will obey me! ! "
sound of
,~~-Presumably he was translating the babbling of a member of the
congregation who ' d just spoken in tongues . Now that she ' s in
such a triumphant mood, Tammy ' s makeup is becoming more and more
extreme - in tact she gppears to be modelling herself after Divine .
Her eyebrows alone could drive Jim back to the
marYiage co u ncellor l While on the subject of Tammy ,
she must be begging for - giveness for a com she recently let slip when the cameraman accidentally got in the picture :
"That ' s O . K. ,sometimes what's going on
behind the scenes is ~ore interesting
than what ' s going on up here, sometimes . ..
. .. er . . . sometimes . . . " My favorite Tammy

por such a long time It was a world
of mlni·Mklri!l, long hair and talk of
the Sunset r iots and then •.. sud·
dcnly •.• It was the world of the
Flower Generation, spr outing flower
music, for flower children with flower power. It wu.s .•. suddenly ..•
the world of the Seeds I
Leader of the group, Sky Saxon,
was the originator of the terms that
not only describe their following; but
thelr sound as well. Drummer Rick
Andrldge said, "The word teenybopper Is becoming old fashioned. lt
really doesn't describe the ymJng
people, so we call them flower children. Quite a while ago Sky sat back
and thought and realized that rock
and roll was back In 1955. Then
(here was folk and roll, folk rock
and none of them Ill Oijr kind or
music.
Who Are Flower Chlldreri?
"Everybody had started wearing
flowers, carrying flowers and girls
In flower dresses. so flower rock
music just more or less grew from
that. We called the kids flower chll·
dren."
Signs that this "flower thing" Is
catching' on are being seen again
and again . .. t ans rushing the stage
at every show .. • flower children
bringing and wearing (Jowers to
each Seeds performance . .. seeds
arriving Inside each fan letter . . .
and even a cartoon about Flower
Power in the Los Angeles Times
newspaper. Catching on? Taking
over may be a more accurate description.
It wasn't always thls prosperous
tor Los Angeles' Seeds. IL has taken
JWO years tor It to happen and .Jan
Savage, guitarist for the group, explained why they never gave up durIng that time:
"I listen to the songs we play over
and over, but I stLII get excited and
I think we give off this excitement.
With us It happened like a snowball.
We started down and little by lillie
we got more fans.
Slow Start
"When I fi•·st met Sky, I wns
working in a machine shop. T had
given up music before because I
couldn't stand the disappointments.
Sky came to me and told me how
he was convinced he would make lt.
l said, 'As long as you keep picking
me up I can't do anything but go
wiLh you.' And since then, and that
was two years ago, we've been going
up. We tell down a couple of times
and had hard times, but we all just
stuck to It and It paid ott."
Because the Seeds began the total
concept of a llower generation, It
was up to them to make Lhelr 'own
place wlth.ln it. Just what Is their
place? Sky believes, "The Seeds are
the ones who made them aware of
it. Just like the sky Is blue •• . you
don't really notice It until you look
up. We want to make people aware
ot 1t all. The words to our songs are
saying Lhat."
, And there Is purpose and sincerity
In what they do. On slncerlty organist and pianist, Daryl Jlooper, commented, "We play how we feel • ..
we act how we feel. AU the time we
were struggling we knew we were
going to make It eventually. We
didn't know when, this is Impossible
to judge, but I don't think that we
were really ever ready to break up,
because we knew we. would eventually catch on because we had a
new sound."
l.
l ove
Sky said, "We want to make people love one another. There's a lot of
hate In growing up and I think music Is tile only answer. It's amaz.lng
... what music can make you do Is
amazing!
"Jt's like making someone eat
mush for ten years and saying
'You've got to eat mush tor ten
more years.' Then telling someone
there's lee cream. That's why It took
us so long. It you keep having a
sound drllled into your head, It may
be around, not because It's the greatEst, but because nobody has any
Ideas how to do It better."
Rick continued, "Our purpose Is
to spread our kind of music and In
turn show older people this long
hair, LA scene, hippies, etc. aren't
really so bad. It's just kids being
kids like they've always been and
always will be."
That's what'!! happening wllh the
Seeds. The flower children are digging the Seeds as Uaey are and al·
ways will bo.

would appreciate the beauty or nature.
Someday, I hope to go back to Oklahoma and live off the land.

wa~ 1746). I live in llollywood Hills

mainly girls who arc honest and sin cere. I ~urc hate phonics or all kiml~!

at does a .
banana have to be
to be a·Chiquita?
....
,
•
It's sort of like passing the physical
to become a Morine.
The banana 's got to be the -right
height. The right weight. The right everything.
_,
Right off, it has to be a good eight
inches along the outer curve. And ot
least one and a quarter inches across the ·
middle. It has to be plump. The peel has
to fit tightly. The banana has to be -sleek
and firm.
.
It has to be good enough to get
through a 15-point inspection. Not one~,
but three separate times.
Occasionally , though, a banana
comes along that's got everything going
for it:-:.except maybe it's a smidgen under
minlm_urrr-lengfh. ·
~ WVe should -p ull it, we know. But
our inspector.s have hearts, too.
Whic'h is why- you may sometimes
find a -Chiquita Brand Banana that isn 't
quite eight inches long.
Come to think of it, though, you
sometimes find Marines named "Shorty,"
too.

DR: ... O.K. rut has it brought us •.u t.he point when
people such as YQ-'1-se.l.f won't accept Or. Smith? It
hasn It really changfOld anything.
T: It's just r.he same old stufff that wos done before.
It's more accepted than it was. If you walk down che

with i t.
Dr: 5 years ago I got a job looki.ng l ike nns.
T: Alright l:ut I can assure you i t 's aloe easier now.
I think All. n-Dvernent s have progressed to anothet" form
t o a more subtle, cerebral type of thing. I just :hink
this (Or. Sml.thl is just tOO pessi.nustic , tOO ••• !.!
I did a fanz:ine I 'd do sarething more up beat, I
thl.ri< you get more·across that way. I JUSt thougllt
what's the point of this. I mean is thi.s written bv
scrne U:SBIAN/CAY group or wnat! (re; article on gay
art! I mean I don't kN:)w it didn't sell me on ::he
fact tiiaCTt was trying...This looks like )ltA.Ir average
sore-of hard-core porn or not even bard-<:ore I guess ,
soft porn. literature. An:! !£ rot being interested
in that type of sc:.ufff didn't like it. But I think
rOOly saneone who did, I'd bet you anything, that
sane guy who was into GAY PORN. who has read t:his
would probably think it was great. I thl.nk he'd GE:r
OFF oo it. You see anyone already against it wouldn 't:
like this , l:ut scrnebody PRO-IT would like i t. That 's
l.'hy I see ther's no point. It's just a waste of space.
I rOOly do. I think this thing !cartoon insert)
was kin:i of funny , it:' s kin:i of pointless but it 1 s
kin:i of funny if you're just trying to be fu-my.
( re: recipes l I mean if you think this is anything ~.1
it' s rot. I mean exploitatioo of loODen in the fi£-~es.
I think you 've gone overboard on the depression, hardsell.
Or: I think it's interesting that you're so of:en:led
by i t.
T: Yo.J do? If )IOU \olere to brii1g !.n a p1.ece of paper
wtth sane dog shl.t on it I 'cl be offeroed bv it coo,
t.llat 's so great aboul: that. There's nothing so getUus
abcuc that. Yru can OFFen:! saneone without l1lJCh brain
cells . I think that's the problem, yru thJ.nk just plain
OFFending saneone is a good Social Force, 1:ut I don'~
think that it's enough.
Dr: I agree .•.
T: ••. I don't krow I'm rlot a critic, l:ut that:'s my
point of View on it. I mean there are sane rOOlv
good ideas in i t, obviously saneone has rOOly cried
l:ut I just think it's tooo negative.
Dr: So \.~hat would you puc in it?

He rOOly gets his point across.
