just an excuse to post this classic
Can’t beat a bit of Du. Or Bob. Or Sugar.
It’s all good!
apologies for Jimmy Saville at the start (makes you think) and also pre-ironic use of 'puff' as an insult.
Sorry, I only listen to nice music.
Pretty much anything by Discharge.

Last caress/Am I evil/Battery - live
I didn’t think it was possible for a song to be better than Search and Destroy til I heard this.

Was reading the sleevenotes to this just the other day. They don't come more brutal...
I dun know Swans are pretty ****ing brutal
And then there’s the Buttholes...
So what? - the Anti Nowhere League, and subsequently covered by Metallica.
Not to be confused with the same titled song by Pink. No sir, not one bit. Getting those two confused would bad at a wedding disco.
One of the more vituperative lyrics I’ve come across, I would imagine the break-up that spawned this song was less than amicable...
Pretty much anything by the very cuddly Amazing Snakeheads
Not sure how this comes across on Youtube, but when you’re stood 6inches from a girl whose boyfriend has upset Dale and he sings it in her face.. its brutal I tell you
Brilliant! didn’t see the post above when I posted, 😆
and..
Still makes me wince a bit.....
Two golden oldies and a modern one from me.
I remember hearing this as a teen and feeling amazed at how brutal it was in terms of the lyrics and style
Another one from the Meninblack
And continuing the Stranglers theme the modern one from one half of Moldy Peaches </span>

why is posting a video so hard these days!
Harsh brutality done pretty.
And, don't think Declan liked Maggie much...
The most brutal song I've ever listened to in my entire life
and probably ever will.
:'(
And, don’t think Declan liked Maggie much…
Ha! was gonna post that one!
The 60s had some brutality
Musically softer than my previous choices but no less brutal or harsh to me.
Hurt - Johnny Cash.
James Blunt.
Musically this springs to mind:
Lyrically (and aptly for this forum) this is superb, especially the second line:
Mclusky - Gareth Brown Says
All of your friends are ****s
Your mother is a ball-point pen thief
Notoriety follows you
Like beatings follow rain
Bring on the big-hitters
You've got a prophets name
All of your tales are lies
You've never been to Alton towers
Michael Caine doesn't follow you
And you've never been to Spain
Bring on the go-getters
You've got a prophets name
Gareth Brown says
Anything by Amenra or Bad Breeding should do. Both brilliantly brutal, particularly live.
I saw your Mommy and your Mommy is dead.
Plenty from Nick's back catalogue to choose from
'Lips 2 Da Floor' is the best video ever. Thank you.
