The lyric "Johnny Rotten is turning in his bed - I was gonna say grave but the fucker ain't dead" is just pure brilliance. Cannot wait for them to tour again.

Slaves was meant in 'slaves to the system' which is a very punk way of thinking. I can understand the name change though. And it doesnt matter what they are called, its all about the talent and this band is very talented.

@warlorddk2070 Месяц назад

Its more the reason they changed... When the system changes face its still the system... A fan is told he cant wear their t-shirt because he is white asking them to change... Punk is all about rebelion against the restrictive acceptance of society... So the t-shirt getting a responce of non acceptance? That shit did its job... Puck rockers never wanted acceptance they said fuck acceptance. Dont change your subculture for posers that never understood it.

That is Robbie Williams haha! The Johnny Rotten lyric is iconic. I love this band. They have a song called fuck the hi-hat in response to a reviewer who complained he doesn’t have a hi-hat on his kit. And a song called ‘girl fight’ which is simply about girls fighting over a kebab on a night out

@KillKenny09 7 месяцев назад

@@anamorel2634 "punk" has nothing to do with left or right. "punk" is and was allways against the mainstream. This woke-bullshit is pure mainstream (at least here in germany). So how can you be "punk" and "mainstream-sheeple" at the same time? makes no sense. I never heard from this band before. Didn´t know they changed their name. Had to read the lyrics and some backstory about the "slaves ...."-stuff... Guess I will never ever listen again... "snowflake...snowflake" XD ciao

Soft Play are great and this is such a fantastic comeback track. That main riff doesn’t get boring AT ALL and I’ve been spinning this on repeat for a couple of weeks now. Soft play/ soft c*nts, snowflake/cherries on the whole cake and the Johnny Rotten lines are all fantastic too!

They mentioned that it’s a bit Frank Carter and the Rattlesnakes. The 2nd gig Soft Play did after they reformed was at a festival called 2000 Trees (medium sized punk festival in the UK) and they headlined the 2nd day, Frank Carter headlined the 3rd. I worked at that festival just to go see Soft Play and it was just incredible. Crowd was insane. So good and so much fun

As a brit just wanna point out that "soft play" is like a indoor kids playground with slides and ballpits. The name "soft play" for this kind of place has taken off over the last few years so maybe that's where the new name came from? They are such a good band though! Quality live!

Why, "Soft Play"? Lemme ask you sumthin'. What is the exact opposite of hard work? This song is brilliant because they are using the ridiculous arguments a vocal part of their fan base were saying in response to the name change. Soft Play responded in the most punk way possible. They wrote a banger! \m/ * * \m/

I'm coming at this very late, but with your question about erasing the past, there's a difference between preservation and veneration. Take the confederate flag for example. It belongs in a museum as an artifact to learn from, but nobody should ever be waving it as a symbol that they stand for.

@chaoticsquid 9 месяцев назад

Few mentions. They took some time out because of personal issues. They didn't change their name to be more sensitive, they stand by their original name meaning 'slaves to the system' which is a common theme in their earlier albums, "we are all slaves" is a chant in one song, they just didn't want the negative attention that their old name brought them, hence them pushing back at the 'PC' train of thought in this song. New name is an oxymoron, hard punk/soft play. And that IS Robbie Williams, just an uncredited cameo which is brilliant.

@nathandjohnny 9 месяцев назад

Thanks dude!

@saeedyounus6930 9 месяцев назад

The song isn't pushing back on the pc train of thought, the song is made up of comments the band received on their socials after they announced their name change, people calling them woke babies. And the song is a mild taking the piss out of those fans.

@Ptolomey 9 месяцев назад

Mate this is all bullshit, completely the opposite of what they were saying, its taking the piss out of people who didnt like their name change cause it was "too pc" and called them soft, they acknowledged and agreed that their old name was problematic.

@brianhead2709 9 месяцев назад

To miss the point this much is honestly impressive. “They’re pushing back at the PC train.” 😂 Nah my guy

@chaoticsquid 9 месяцев назад

What I meant by that is that they were pushing back at fans calling them PC or woke, which is not something they're trying to be, the old name is just not a good one for a band to be successful even given the meaning not being offensive. Maybe I could've phrased it better but at least attempt to pick up on context clues.

I miss punk bands that DID want to piss people off but I guess they are pissing some of their fans off so that's a good thing.

@gonk9204 8 месяцев назад

They do want to piss people off, they never stopped wanting to be antagonistic whether theyre going by 'slaves' or 'soft play'. Its just, they want to piss the right people off, not the working classes, afterall thats the spirit of punk, unite people in punching up and not down. Thats why when they got backlash for their name change being 'pc' and 'snowflake' from supposed fans they decided to bite back with a heavy hitting song proving theyre still the same band, even if some of the fans decided to be oversensitive over something as simple as a name change.
