Annotation
US Post-Hardcore punk band At the Drive-In opened their 1998 album with the blazing track "Alpha Centauri" (Fearless Records # F034). Founded in 1993, in El Paso, Texas, the band's lyrics were often obscure and difficult to interpret. It did contain several lines of violent imagery, including a possible reference to Kent State: "students spray the Kent State mist".& Vietnam War: Punk Songs
