Concidering how many people didn’t get it the last time, when I posted the first Skrewdriver 7″, I’m awaiting some hilarious comments accusing this version of the band being nazis again or how someone could support a band that has a future nazi in it. Take note that I’ve been on a “nazi death list” in the past but I can still enjoy this. Now, let’s enjoy the punk rant in Anti Social:
I Don’t Like Papers, Reading Books
Gettin’ Sick, Think It Sucks
I Don’t Wanna Listen To Another Word
I’m So Bleedin’ Bored
Chorus:
I’m An-Ti-Social
An-Ti-Social
An-Ti-Social
I Hate The World
I Don’t Wanna Go To Work Another Day
I Wanna Be Somebody
I Don’t Wanna Wear No Three Piece Suit
I Don’t Wanna Family
(Chorus)
I ain’t gonna be no rich man’s tool
I ain’t gonna cut my hair
Gonna wear boots and a short-haired crop
Whats the trade source there
(Chorus)
Wanderin’ Round The Streets Wondering What To Do
( what?)
I Ain’t Got No Money Or A Set Of Wheels
It’s A Bloody Drag
Lookin’ At The Posers And Their Flashy Cars
I’m Just Walkin’ Round
Never Gonna Get A House Wife Or Kids
I Ain’t Gonna Settle Down
(Chorus)

I wanted to be the first one to comment on what will hopefully bring out some of you more “intelligent” blog readers…let’s see if we can break the You’re So Dumb comment record!
Oh, and Thank You Very Much for being smart enough to “get it” and still listen to it like it was meant to be heard, no matter how it ended up later. Thinking otherwise would be like trying to have a 56th trimester abortion…
By the way, the “Thank You Very Much” was meant for whoever posted this one…
Right under the band name and title of the record you see when and who posted it. This time it was me. So thank you for thanking me ;).
The record is not that good.
Neither was your wife.
Awwww…did I get someone’s panties in a bunch? Hahahahaha….fucking pussy!!!
No not at all, don’t worry sweetheart…I don’t even know you so how could I rate your wife? I appreciate you firing back though, it keeps things interesting. I hope we can be internet friends someday. Kisses.
Thanks Peter for this masterpiece!!! I still cannot stand Ian’s voice, never did like it. The only song he ever sang good on was, “Invasion”. “It’s an invasion, invasion…oh wo wo wo, it’s an invasion…” You should put that record up next, to me it is the best. I have my Skrewdriver tattoo on my forehead. It looks cool!!!! : )
What are you speaking of? Ian was tight as fuck in ‘all skrewed up’. Of course the later skrewdriver shit is kiddish and whatever but this album is a masterpiece and any real punker would agree.
Jay, you need to check your name when posting ;). First you proclaim that “The record is not that good” using the first commentators username and then you post under “RowJayRow” and claim you like it ha ha. About your Skrewdriver tattoo…it´s way cool. Remember when you did it and Harley from the Cro Mags was angry cause you didn´t do the front of the “Age of Quarrel” sleeve instead.
I truly do not like the record or I would have kept it in my collection. My tattoo still looks cool though. I have a huge tribute to Ian on my back. It has his face and around it it reads…Ian Stuart, a role model and a legend, we will never forget you. It is really cool and cost me a pack of smokes when I was in prison. : )
Any of you dipshits, Antifa or other left wing hooligan cunts start ragging on Skrewdriver…go fuck yourselves. You commie bastards.
Wow, only a nazi bastard would hate commies that much! I don’t have anything to say about the band, it’s just ironic that everyone was expecting stupid comments from the left and instead they ended up with a stupid comment from some fascist hooligan.
“Ikillcommies” is just Jay Thurston who’s trying to stir up some controversion :).
How come Peter always thinks its me when I make a goody comment?? Hahahahaha
Smash the left wing idiots!!! Hahahahaha…
you are backward thats why britain nowadays is so miserable-for people like you i have just one suggestion:take yourselves to
Gruinard,that anthrax island somewhere around scotland.
if that doesnt help-give me some disinfectant!
small brain no pain or what!
skrewdriver started off as a punk band you cunt-face it,or leave it-we dont need your glorification of the latter skrewdriver.
get a life you cunt.
to avoid confusion,my rant above was directed to “ikillcommies” ok.
Don’t be a dildo!!!
I’ve always prefered the B side for some reason and I’ve never been keen on the Stones at the best of times.
Only poseurs oppose abortion in the 56th trimester!
yes i cracking single after all they were a PUNK band, so give it a listern.
Music wasn’t bad, hardly lyrical geniuses though. Mind you, nothing that a car and tarmac couldn’t solve.
For your information, the missing line of Anti-Social is: “Victim of the dole-queue line”. Could be it needs a English ear – I’m English – to discern that? (Any nazis or anti-nazi nazis that may be reading, please note the previous sentence is devoid of nationalist sentiment).
The first line doesn’t sound right (the “I don’t like papers” bit). Not to over analyse the song, but it seems it was written from the perspective of (possibly by?) someone lying ill in bed. I’ve been a fan of this record (side A, especially) since I picked it up in 1979 – but have never been able to work out that opening line…
Just as good as it gets! Post “Built up Knocked down” while you’re at it Peter!?
Peter, post “White Power”, that is when Ian became a man!!! Mr. Controversy is here…let’s get this party started, shall we?? Hahahaha…
AN

CIAL
GREAT TRACK
Thanks for this! Always always wanted to hear their cover of the stones and finally ahh!
There are only 116 comments left to go before this Skrewdriver posting is tied with the last one. And some people thought that old Poison Idea posting was going to get all the comments. That old Poison Idea posting has only 32 comments and nobody has commented on it in months.
I never really listened to Skrewdriver before. I heard “Youre So Dumb” and wasn’t too impressed. But I must say, this 45 is one of the best 45s I’ve ever listened to! I’m a Skrewdriver fan now.
less Stummer-esque and much more effective a band at the time due to steady hits in the U.K. was the excellent band the VILETONES.
anne marie has this 7″ and we play it every week at our skid o rama punk party. anne marie rulez by the way. any skid bands touring out there should play with us saturdays in vancouver.
A very mediocre record from a band that would rightfully have gone down without a trace if it wasn’t for their ridiculous ‘me is a tougher nazi than you are’ views. Well, he’s dead and Europe’s become ever more multi-cultural ever since – he died and achieved fuck all. No really Ian, great work.
Death to Commie traitors…
This site is getting boring. What happened to all the arguing about Skrewdriver?? What can I do to get this party started??? I have tried the “kill Commies” thing, the pro Fascist thing…hmmm. Antifa for life!!!!
Sieg Heil!
Skrewdriver macht frei.
Sorry mate, there’s nothing there to argue about. I had Joseph Stalin’s face tattooed on my forehead when I was in jail for burning down a right-wing student club, and everytime I crap my arse whistles te Internationale. Maybe the ’shoud we like Skrewdriver’ discussion is a wee bit less relevant than the question ‘Can anyone be bothered still?’
Long live the master race!
Horn live the honking race.
Porn lives, you punky face!
sieg help
Sieg Garett
Hahaha, ja, Cigg Heil på dej!
Sieg Fried!
Sieg Tuna!
Sieg Fried and Roy!!!
Sieg Sten Herrrgård!
WHO”S RACIST?!?!?!?!?!
Peter is a gay racist and a Fascist too. : )
Davis, you must understand…I joke around almost all the time.
Ron´s bassist?
Only 98 more comments to go before this Skrewdriver posting beats the last one. Can it be done?
U guys R LOONYTUNES…xD
Just my two cents, but they weren’t that good in either incarnation, don’t think we’d even remember them if it wasn’t for their nazi fame.
Think you´re wrong there Justin. The first Skrewdriver will be remembered cause they spit out some classic tunes.
I agree with Justin
No you don´t.
Yes, I do. I cannot stand this band in all honesty. Antifa for life!
Sieg Stinska Kapellet!
Sieg Sieg Sputnik!
This shit is weak- my last post got 238 comments!!! Granted most of them were about consolidating debt and making your wiener bigger but what’s more hardcore than a broke punker with a tiny pecker? Prussian Blue blows this bullshit out of the water. Hail The New Dawn!
Prussian Blue are not as good as they used to be…I think they are learning how to sing now…boo!
Kind of starting to lose their looks too.
Hahahahahahaha…
HA HA HA HA :D. Give me a link to your writing old small dicked punx rocker.
I tried Peter, really I did,just to give you the benefit of the doubt, and listened to both tunes one more time. 19th Nervous Breakdown is easily the most boring Rolling Stones cover I have ever heard. Sorry man. Just a few years later the Avengers did an awesome cover of Paint It Black that blows this away. As far as Anti Social, I guess I can see the appeal because there is a genuine ‘77 sound, but there again it was boring. I guess too there is something about that Ian guy’s voice that really annoys me for some reason, an issue of taste I guess. If anything I think they rocked a little harder when they were racist. As always though I appreciate the fact that you take the time to share rare music.
maybe this will get you some more responses.
Answer me this question, Does Skrewdriver stimulate the growth of, or cause a reversal in growth in the penile region?
Adam, I’m sure the answer to your question is yes. I hope that helped you.
I still say had Ian not gone NF, that Skrewdriver would have been a huge thing in the 77 punk crowd. I think that the early Skrewdriver stuff is among the most raw and edgy first wave punk that came out at the time.
Agree!
Isn’t that one line “I don’t wanna smile today?”
Damn! Looks like I missed the party! I was running out of space on my computer, so I wasn’t browsing the blogs. Oh well. Here’s a gift for you. I hope you get a good laugh out of it:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0TdFh8PQFU&feature=related
Don’t ever knock the mighty S’driver or Lynard Skynard…Hail White Rider!!!! Ian’s voice is so magnificent on that song…just marvelous…
You ever hear his folky cover of “Behind Blue Eyes?” Now THAT’s something!
Have you heard is version of “Hair?”…it is out of this world!!!
HA! It must have been, considering he didn’t have any!
In honor of Mr Stuart, I’ve decided to cut off my long hair and shave my beard. Then I’m going to lynch the drummer of my band because he happens to be black. My band will have to find another drummer, but I’ll feel self-righteous in my whiteness.
One question though – do skinheads shave their balls?
Skrewdriver sound as good as any other punk band bk in 77..they just got pissed off aand moved musical direction..maybe a bad choice??? oh well still a laugh listenin to them pissed up and remembering the bootboy days
Just would like to say that All Skrewed Up is My favorite British Punk Rock Album besides Nevermind The Bullocks.For the Record I don’t care what care what people Say I like Skrewdriver (77 Era of course) and They tell me I’m better off Crazy Lol. To Bad Chiswick Didn’t realeas Street Fight and Unbeliever. Awsome Posts by the way thank you so much by the way Thank you For introducing me to the viletones they Rock Screaming Fist is an awsome EP!!!!!!
up the n00bs!!
Up the boobs!!!!
I really don’t get all this fuss about Skrewdriver’s early records. All I hear when somebody plays ‘All skrewed up’ is the sound of an extremely run-of-the-mill ‘77 punk band. They made one mini album and split up, precisely because they were so unremarkable.
If they hadn’t been re-invented by future road accident statistic Ian Stuart as poster children for bald-headed white supremacists everywhere their musical ‘legacy’ would be long forgotten.
