Neil Young and his band the chrome hearts debuted a brand new anti-Trump protest tune referred to as “Huge Crime” throughout their Chicago live performance on Wednesday. The stomping anthem calls to “clear the White Home out” and takes direct goal on the Trump administration’s takeover of Washington, DC’s regulation enforcement (and, now, Union Station): “Don’t need troopers on our streets/ There’s massive crime in DC on the White Home.”
Along with fan-shot footage popping up on YouTube (watch under), Young posted the entire audio of the soundcheck in addition to the observe’s lyrics on his Neil Young Archives. “No more cash to the fascists/ The billionaire fascists,” he sings, tying the brand new tune to his different latest takedowns of the millionaire class like “Let’s Roll Once more” and “If You’re a Fascist, Get a Tesla.” “Time to blackout the system/ No extra nice once more…./ Time to blackout the system.” Discover the entire lyrics copied forward.
It wasn’t the one protest tune on the setlist, both; a three-song run of “Be the Rain,” “Southern Man,” and “Ohio,” got here early in the present, whereas “Huge Crime” was preceded by “Solar Inexperienced.” The present got here in the center of Young and the chrome hearts’ North American tour, a trek Young wasn’t even assured he’d have the ability to take after fearing Trump would bar him from returning to the nation. After listening to “Huge Crime,” we’ll guess Trump received’t be inviting Young to the Kennedy Middle anytime quickly, both.

Earlier this 12 months, Young was one of many musicians who backed Bruce Springsteen after the Boss piqued POTUS’ ire with a quantity of speeches throughout his European concert events. “I’m not scared of you. Neither are the remaining of us,” Young mentioned on the time. “You shut down FEMA once we wanted it most. That’s your downside Trump. STOP THINKING ABOUT WHAT ROCKERS ARE SAYING. Take into consideration saving America from the mess you made.”
Doesn’t sound like Young will likely be backing down from his stance on Trump anytime quickly, so count on to listen to extra “Huge Crime” on his ongoing tour. Get tickets here.
