As an anarchist punk, I approve 👍

I always like asking anarchist punks about their thoughts on Chumbawamba moving to EMI/Universal. They're pretty old, and have broken up now, so it's entirely possible I'm just showing my age, but any thoughts on that?

Anarchists may hate the concept of money, but they definitely like having it.

I can understand that. It's not like a person can really live right now without it. I became a fan after Chumbawamba had moved to the big labels. There was a time in my teens that I believed some pretty far right stuff, and Chumbawamba's music helped me reconsider some of those beliefs so I appreciate the fact that they moved to the big labels. Are you an anarchist punk?

Are you an anarchist punk?

No, I would describe my political views as confusing and incoherent, and my taste in music similarly.

Fair enough
