United States Lyrics
This is a nice and long song, but they've had longer ones. Glass and the Ghost Children (Machina) Porcelina Of The Vast Oceans (MCIS)
I like this song...if you think about it, the message isn't all that different than Tonight, Tonight. Tonight is about changing your own life, this one's just on a larger scale...a little more grown up, as they are now.
great song. I'm not american though so I won't pass judgement on the meaning.....
Relentless is the correct word to describe Chamberlain's drumming. He's just so solid.
-the Happiness Salesman
The story goes that the producer forced him to play it all in one pass, and they kept going til Jimmy's hands bled.

@euanelliot No, that was during either the Gish or Siamese Dream era, I believe. The real scoop is that Jimmy played this all in one take. Apparently, he doesn't hit the snare drum until somewhere at the six minutes.

wow is this SP's longest songs.. its a whopping 10 mins long!!
seems like this album is more on the political side...
I love this album. I totally agree with its message.
This is my favorite song on the album. Jimmy is relentless and Billy is at his best! "Who's side are you on, your blood you can not buy" says a lot to me. You can not choose what country you are born into, you are subject to the will of your country and its policies.
I love the vocals in this song, they remind me of Billy's solo album.
Billy is doing what he does best ,amazing solos! Im glad they're back!
Love this song. simple. Angry as heck. and yeah the vocals on this are like the vocals on billy's solo album. But its the melody i've fallen in love with.
Chamberlain goes tribal? The drumming in this is neat. Best song on Zeitgeist imo
