The first verse is a slam on Rancid, but I don't remember exactly which video it is they're talking about. And yeah, like MarcaAL4W said, the second verse is directed toward NOFX and their song "The Separation Of Church & Skate." What they're trying to say here is that punk has evolved into yet another product that's packaged and sold. It may be out of the mainstream's eye, but it still relies on a capitalist economy to prosper.
Another inspiration for this song was 2004's "Rock Against Bush" tours and compilations, arranged by Fat Mike from NOFX, which pretty much openly endorsed John Kerry, which Propagandhi rightly takes issue with.
