I hate it when level 7 puritan anarchist internet warriors put this song down. If you can't relate to "smash it up when I'm down" then you are not human. This song is fucking inspiring.
I suggest that everyone buys this album and listen to the heck out of it... then gift it to someone... because it's only in giving, that we feel so esteemed and fulfilled... plus, you guys will not regret it if you do... trust me on that
This video is absolutely amazing. Its rad that their offshoot band INVSN hasn't strayed from the INC, "It is still all the same; the same old promise, the same old lies that I despise," from "The Promise"
Stumbled upon these at Reading festival in the Radio 1 tent in 2004 I think it was, they had the whole tent jumping. One of the best performances I have ever seen 😎
i find it a little ironic that i have to sit through a 30 second commercial for heinz ketchup before i'm allowed to view an international noise conspiracy video...
This is one of the best music videos I have seen in years. The music is fabulous the message is really on the mark. In these times this music is really on message. Socialism is an economic system in which the means of production are owned by and organised for the benefit of all the people not just the 1% which doesn't sound like a bad idea. Keep on ..you give me hope for the future...groovy grandma
Do you imagine how a society based on classes is destroying the capacity of each individual to create things... We are losing our time to work for capitalists... For producing an amount of products, just to be bought then thrown away Instead of thinking, creating alot of stuffs, like MUSIC! In a socialist world, we would love everything, everybody, have fun with everyone because it would be simplier to play
Glib..the rich are robbing the 99% of their money and their freedom On top of that the very wealthy are allowed to pay no tax. The big banks and corporations are robbing the world's population and killing them on masse in some situations in pursuit of land resources and total control.. full spectrum dominance. Get informed instead of using dumb pathetic lying pronouncements.
Stealing people's houses, pensions, jobs, countries, wrecking the environmrnt, waging war on sovereign nations, corrupt banking practices, destroying social fabric of society all in name of profit greedy murdering bastards. Inly happy when world's population is totally enslaved to Corporate Rule.
I want to smash it up for all the workers who spent hours into nothing I want to smash it up for all my sister who got caught up in this funky system I want to smash it up just like a locust, like a satellite shooting rockets I want to smash it up in every way I can.

1968, the year a bunch of french teenagers proved that only the workers and the party can lead the revolution, not punks looking for shit to do. Long live 1949!
cool eh! we owe us to our ancestors: "No poet, no artist of any art, has his complete meaning alone. His significance, his appreciation is the appreciation of his relation to the dead poets and artists. You cannot value him alone; you must set him, for contrast and comparison, among the dead (...) The existing order is complete before the new work arrives; for order to persist after the supervention of novelty" T. S. Eliot
yes indeed... POWER TO THE PEOPLE! SMASH IT UP! USE COMPUTERS TO SIGN PETITIONS AND ORGANISE PROTESTS, AS OPPOSED TO JOINING I'M A FAN OF DR PEPPER FACE BOOK GROUPS AND SUCH! STOP PLAYING GAMES, GET 'THEM' TO WORK FOR US LIKE IT SAYS THEY DO ON THE TIN!
@@art.hropod their suits were always kind of ill-fitting too. Haaa.now im just being mean. Though i enjoyed reading about Situationism and the book Lipstick Traces, the sudden wave of punk kids espousing situationist philosophy at this time felt a bit like Shelter and Hare Krishna some years before .
that's called anarcho-communism, and I agree it's the only true expression of communism, embracing the good and social instincts of humans, based on solidarity.
Perhaps what the band means here with regards to freedom is limited to the creative sphere and that it should be. I got this from the text at the start of this video. Maybe I could be wrong.
@morbitron6 oh! and p.s. I'm not arguing that people don't need eachother, of course we do, people go insane without socializing. I'm saying we don't need to DOMINATE eachother. I think most surviving tribes and tribes of the past would agree as they *usually* (note emphasis) had no central authority.
@morbitron6 who said there was no recompense for wrong doing? anarchism is basically bringing government down to a community level. that way your voice is actually able to be heard. "hitler as the chancellor of germany is a tragedy, hitler at a town meeting is an asshole" - Karl Hess
Proudhon the father of modern anarchism was indeed a collectivist , Bakunin was in the First International whit Karl Marx and Proudhon too . Anarchism was born out of the anti-statist / anti-authoritarian wing of the the first international . This split in this old socialist organization gave birth to anarchism as we know it study some history .
@morbitron6 okay so you believe people are smart enough to choose their own leaders right? that they choose those leaders because they will make the decisions voters want? so how are the people smart enough to elect other people to govern them but not smart enough to govern themselves? its like choosing your boss and telling him how to boss you around but not being smart enough to be your own boss. get me?
I just realized that's the singer from Refused. I'm in absolute shock, what a talent.
Who remembers this from MTV's 120 Minutes? Now it's quarantine music.
When MTV played good stuff late at night, it made me late to school the next day.
I hate it when level 7 puritan anarchist internet warriors put this song down. If you can't relate to "smash it up when I'm down" then you are not human. This song is fucking inspiring.
This band give the strength to keep going...
This song is as relavant today as its ever been
Feels current again
Tell me about it
Yes, their lyrics resurfaced in my head and led me here.
Heard this song on a Punk o Rama and it’s one of my favs

The Clash/Joe Strummer pic is so relevant. Makes me feel all excited when I see it.
And I would imagine the title 'Smash it Up' is a tribute to The Damned by reference.

I have kinda overlooked The (International) Noise Conspiracy. They have such a unique sound.
I like when bands sound like no other band.
Quite a lot of their sound and look is indebted to Nation of Ulysses. The Delta 72 also did that "stax by way of punk" thing.
@@anyotherdayortimethe Make Up
Great, straight-ahead, garage rock....with a message. Awesome! Love it!
INC deserves so much more recognition

"Passion destroyed is reborn in the passion for destruction" will be my next tattoo

i got the t-shirt with it... :)
Great band still listen every so often the singer first band refused is awesome
A timeless message that still lights my 🔥. Oh! and rocks as tight as Snoop's cornrows.
quite possibly the greatest pice of political music in recent years, i miss them.
I love the Situationist references!

The only problem with socialism is when you run out of other peoples money...

I was 17 when this song came out. Loved it ever since lol
The Hives ripped this look wholesale. Refused sick but always time for TINC
They both ripped it off from ‘60s mods, dude.
J A the hives were already out,they were on geahead,an indie label
hahahahahahh this guy has carved out a niche for himself by ripping off Ian Svenonius and its so ridiculously cringe-inducing.
I saw them at Reading festival in 2004, they had the whole tent dancing. One of the most uplifting performances I’ve seen.
Many years I was searching for the title of this song! WOW!
How have I missed this band until now ...Fuck !!!
I LOVE this song
I want to smash it up
for all the workers who spent hours into nothing
I want to smash it up
for all my sister who got caught up in this funky system

''Smash It Up'' is a great video and exceptionally good song that falls quickly in the ear .
1968, the year a bunch of french teenagers proved that only the workers and the party can lead the revolution, not punks looking for shit to do. Long live 1949!
