In fairness, I think the shit caller referred to the "French equivalent of the Daily Show", not the Daily Show itself. But if he's going to bitch when challenged about it and deny it, why use that comparison in the first place? For someone whose entire argument is based on pedantic, "OK, indentures servants had it bad but they weren't ~slaves~!!!", he should pick his comparisons more carefully.
Goad is right about All Skrewed Up, that first Skrewdriver album. Visceral, high energy, only about 30 minutes long — perfect album length. The songs Gavin sings from a good too (Sick Society and Smash the IRA). I'm not surprised it isn't available on Spotify, but what annoys me is that you can't buy/sell Skrewdriver albums on Discogs. What a shitty policy for what is meant to be an open market for record collectors (even though you can easily buy albums by other white nationalist bands on that website, as long as the mods haven't heard of them or don't consider them too offensive, like Graveland).
Why the hell am I writing two full paragraphs on reddit?
I actually prefer their second album, Hail the New Dawn, which is where they first forayed into nationalism/racism. It isn't over the top and the songs are even catchier than Skrewed Up. Also I'm jewish and Ian Stuart Donaldson would have hated me. I just like what I like.

is that the one with the song "Power from Profit"? if so, I agree.

yep and my personal favorites: "Europe Awake" (which is very timely today related to the European migrant crisis.) and "Pride is our Loyalty"

Once a nation, and now, we're run by who?

The first skrewdriver album is a stone-cold Classic in terms of punk rock. Too bad the singer lost his fucking mind.

God this show is putting me in a mood before work. Jim and Gavin. It's like a deathstar of common sense arguments.

Jim Goad shows are the best.
