Garbage - The Men Who Rule The World (Official Video)

Watch the video for “The Men Who Rule The World” from the album ‘No Gods No Masters’.

“This is our seventh record, the significant numerology of which affected the DNA of its content: the seven virtues, the seven sorrows, and the seven deadly sins. It was our way of trying to make sense of how fucking nuts the world is and the astounding chaos we find ourselves in. It’s the record we felt that we had to make at this time. Major thanks and kudos to the genius Chilean artist and film director Javi Miamor for the incredible visual accompaniment to our brand new song!”

Lyrics
The men who rule the world
Have made a fucking mess
The history of power
The worship of success
The king is in the counting house
He’s chairman of the board
The women who crowd the courtrooms all accused of being whores

Money money money money ha ha ha ha ha

The fleecing of the people
All the fucking time
They call it self-preservation
But we call it a crime
Tented cities on sidewalks underneath the clouds
Imaginary neighbours with plastic cups and paper crowns

Now let’s save all of the animals
Let’s save all the squid
Let’s load them onto the mothership with the elders and the kids
Save great works of genius
The birds the bugs the seeds
And make it a crime to tell a lie again
And watch those haters bleed

Stuck inside my head
Stuck inside my head
All the fucking time

The Violator
Hate the violator
The violator
Destroy the violator

Well...This one has become even more relevant than when it originally came out.

I can remember stealing my older brothers garbage CD when I was only 11. The music was so haunting and I didn’t even understand it yet but I knew I loved it enough to risk an a*s beating from my older brother.

We both purchased multiple copies over the years and I remembering listening thru my teens and again in my late twenties only to understand the music in a way I never have (with my frontal lobe all developed n sh*t) now I love them even more. Only a few bands have withstood that test of time.

They are so highly underrated as a band it’s a crime but talking about real sh*t never wins many friends so… I’m just glad they’re still here making art

[crystalvanityinsanity]

Seeing them perform this live a few days ago was everything!

[ltrecker]

If Shirley is still wrecking it in her 50s SO CAN WE

[Mr.Guild]

[DrPotatoMD]

Holy crap. That video just blew me through the wall. Y'all were always brillaint, but you got REALLY REALLY amazing during the pandemic times.

[averyillies]

Garbage is an absolute gem of limitless measures.

[glenhazelton]

This song is amazing and the whole album a banger. How did I miss this when it first came out? The sound of the album reminds me a lot of Shirley's previous band Angelfish.

[prd]

[Brndndutton]

[wickedunicorn]

Even attending their shows whenever possible. In all that I have done as provide all I can to my artists, I see no problem listening to the album on YouTube. Like when I am here in the hospital. As always, another great album from a phenomenal. Thank you Garbage, for everything. See ya September 8th!!!

[PlasticGeek]

Love the multiple uses of images from Metropolis in this

[oldsaltyowl]

I hadn't seen the movie Metropolis when I first watched this video so i missed the homage.Thats a neat reference. They even added the little dance into it. I love it and I love this band. Also you can tell which 90s kids watch Fox News by how they are offended by the lyrics of the song.

[KNiclson]

Freakin' AWESOME! Thank you for this solid album! I am just grabbing the Vinyl and a t-shirt now

[darkomarkovic]

They last for decades but this is just the beginning.

[Shadowsoldierinfp]

[paulwells]

I love Garbage. Big massive fan since the beginning. Keep up the brilliance guys

[johnnypunish]

Shirley's Dog on her cyborg shoulder was epic! Love this video and

[Dr]

Great song and great video, pretty relatable to these times. I like those visuals that give a parallel narrative to the lyrics of the song
