All Pigs Must Die Lyrics
This ain't August '69
All pigs must die
Seven on seven, sieg heil sublime
They're better off with the Son of God
They had no idea
Not even close, not even near
This ain't August '69
All pigs must die
Seven on seven, sieg heil sublime
This is August '99
All pigs must die
Their stolen riches are really mine
They're better off with the Son of God
This is August '99
All pigs must die
The law of the claw will make them mine
That was August '99
All pigs must die
Their stolen riches are truly mine
In 1991, World Serpent Distribution, a cd label, was formed by David Gibson, Alan Trench and Alison Webster with the help of Douglas Pearce (Death In June's main man), and Death In June was signed on. However, World Serpent wasn't giving its bands their agreed share of their album sales, and this eventually caught up with them. In the late 90s, Death In June broke off from World Serpent, and many of World Serpent's bands followed suite. This entire album is pretty much a hate letter against World Serpent, with the pigs in the album being World Serpent, and especially the "three pigs" talked about in the album being the three founders of World Serpent.
"This ain't August '69" can only be a reference to the Tate-LaBianca murders that happened in August 1969, "Pig" "Piggies" etc. were written on the walls in blood.
Well im not sure but on August 1969 happend the manson family murders and as i remember for what i've read they've written "Pigs" with blood on the walls and all that stuff. Still song is amazing! I love it is prbbly one of the best Death In June songs but still all of their stuff is amazing haha
With that interpretation, this song makes sense. Even though...I don't listen to it.
I just have one question - what pray tell does August '69 have to do with any of it?
Google "August 9 , 1969" and see what comes up.

does so Oh, NOW I see what it would have to do with the song. Thank you very much for explaining that for me.

thought it had something to do with the 1969 Northern Ireland riots, about breaking out free.

What does "seven on seven" mean?
@granttb well, since the next words are "Sieg Heil" I believe 7 & 7 ( I guess it's not "on" but "and" there) might be related to 14 as in "14/88" slogan or whatever it is (with 88 - code for HH - Heil Hitler)
