    Lars Frederiksen - "Skunx"
    "To Victory" EP
    Viking Inc. 2021
    Video by Sam Benavidez
    Lyrics:
    In '82 I was the young one in the bunch
    Initation started and it ended in a punch
    As I got older I got scars to prove my worth
    More times than others I fell face first in the dirt
    Wo ho ho, can't you see?
    You'll never take the gang outta me!
    Wo ho ho, can't you see?
    You'll never take the gang outta me!
    Runt in pack of wolves
    I was nosed up to the front
    I preyed on the weekend soldiers who couldn't take the hunt
    Like Julius Caesar waited for the knife stuck in his back
    I stood so proud and tall and I won't go out like that.
    Wo ho ho can't you see?
    You'll never take the gang outta me!
    Now... Wo ho ho, can't you see?
    You'll never take the gang outta me!
    No!
    Well all the kings before I cut down with my axe
    I stood atop this world alone without a scratch
    With another victory I basked right under the sun
    My war was over but a new one has begun
    Wo ho ho, can't you see?
    You'll never take the gang outta me!
    Now... Wo ho ho, can't you see?
    You'll never take the gang outta me!

    Lars has really aged well. He looks great. Family life has grounded him. Watching him makes me proud to still fly the punk flag in my mid 50s.
    Always felt his vocals were among the best in all of punk rock. Just a unique, growly, gritty style all his own.

    I remember backpacking around India in 2009 for 6 months, Wayback before wifi everywhere and Spotify etc., I had downloaded 2 CDs on mp3 to my phone, Lars Frederiksen and the Bastards and Rancid Indestructible, it was literally the only music I heard through all of India. It kept me sane and I wouldn't change it for modern-day traveling with Spotify and all the money in the world. cramped up in Indian trains for 36 hours, no aircon sharing toilet with hundreds of people, but I didn't care I had my music.

      2009….I was on RUclips…I think I had an IPhone….I guess “way back” is a relative term. Since the the new flu hit things have changed but I saw 09’ and 2019 as more or less the same. The world didn’t really change and there still hasn’t been a real NEW wave of underground rock roll. Ah……to be 30 something again…in that grand ol yesteryear of 2009……:)

    Only Lars can play do that shit. One man, one guitar, and a punk attitude. Always solid, captivating, and a true performer. Kids that's how to rock and show soul. Punk 4eva, punk will never die it gave birth to metal and thrash. ✌️🤘🏴☠️🇦🇺
