Along with “White Male Dumbiance” by B.G.K. this has to be among the top 5 Dutch Hardcore releases. What happened to Gepopel after this? Think about this kids:”After searching hard you’ve found a new name/the word may be new but it stils means the same/I don’t want hardcore to be this year’s thing/’cos only the wrong bands will get exposure/Bandwagon men, bandwagon women/You suck, suck, suck ,suck, suck, suck me dry…” from “Bandwagon”. This felt so right at the time and still does. Strange.

First of all this is a great site and you sure have been busy posting. Secondly yes many punk bands had excellent lyrics and helped shape my life, but nothing really changes. Humans stink and always have. If you read ancient literature like that written by Taoist monks thousands of years ago the problems with society then are still familiar today.
Do you have the rest of the lyrics to that song + the title track?
Hi Mike!
Yes I have but I don’t have the time to help you out right now.
Niels, the vocalist/guitarist played in a band called De Kift at one point and now has his own mp3 blog callled Eet u Smakelijk at http://eetusmakelijk.blogspot.com/.
Thanks for posting these tracks. This ep is a winner.
Niels have been in lots of bands :). Vernon Walters is another example.
I posted Niels and Joosh latest band Sack O’ Woes here:

GREAT record!!!
WOW! Ive heard these guys before from a split tape w/ Funeral oration, and I really liked them
but hereing the mp3′s on this site really prove this band rules, sounds like a euro D.R.I.
