I was told this song was about Lars Fredericksen old 'crew' the skunks basicly getting wiped out when lars was avout 15-16. Apperently him and Ben Zandito were on there way to meet up with the skunks and when they arrived they'd been involved in a pretty savage drive by. Like i said im not sure if this is true or not but thought it was worth contributing.

me and one of my friends use to always chant this... then we played it for two other of our friends and we would all chant it together... one of them was in my english class and during the middle of a test... wed just look across the room at eachother and start singing it... alot of weird glances but fuck em

Roots Radical is a Jimmy Cliff song. It's totally different from this one, but it may very well have inspired this one, since RAncid does a cover of "the Harder They Come" which is also by Jimmy Cliff

Oh yeah, and the Stiff little fingers song came out one year before the Jimmy Cliff song did, for the record

Great jammin' song. It's about some of the good times he had.
