    Hey,
    I'm in the process of quitting smoking (after 9/10 yrs). Was wondering if anyone knows any anti-smoking songs they could recommend? I'd like to listen to 'em for motivation ( :ecouteurs: + :ecouteurs: + :rock: )
    I was thinking something along the lines of Disrupt, but if you've got any suggestions, I'm open. Thanks!

    Ashtray Dirt by The Subhumans comes to mind.

    You Cough, They Profit - Oi Polloi
    Cancer - Subhumans
    Whole Wheat Bread - Scar Your Lungs
    Minor Threat and most other edge bands have probably got a few numbers between 'em too!

    None of them are really like Disrupt, but they might help :D

    Apathy by subhumans also has an anti smoking refrence, "Drink, Sex, Cigarettes
    Ford Cortina household pets, Bombs? War? Famine? Death? An apathetic public couldn t care less"

    Funny that the Subhumans had so many anti smoking songs when Dick I believe still is a heavy smoker. Kinda like Henry Rollins singing about drinking...

    Cigarette Song, Still Smokin', Self Esteem, check 'em out...

    Thanks a lot, everyone! I do enjoy subhumans, and Doom is fucking classic, I'll definately be looking for the others as well (Scar Your Lungs sounds like ALL their songs would be non-smoking). I've been listening to a lot of crust and d-beat lately but have been surprised that there aren't any anti-smoking songs (at least with the bands I listen to). So thanks again!

    That's awesome, sounds like you're on the same track as I am. I was around 13 a day, and now I'm down to two per day. I've been going for whole days with out ANY lately, and thats when I need music to calm my nerves. Been listening to A LOT of crust and d-beat and grind(they may be angry about other things, but it still helps, haha). Time to stop being a slave to nicotine.

    off the topic of songs, but on the topic of Quitting Smoking...

    try to locate the zine 'Quit Smoking - A DIY Guide by Ex-Smokers'

    the copy i have (that helped me immensely when i first decided to attempt to quit) was printed and distributed by:
    A New World In Our Hearts
    they can be reached at: inourhearts@gmail.com

    it is filled with history, motivations and helpful tips that are 'explicitly anti-capitalist and DIY'

    some suggestions from the zine's 'things to do instead of smoking a cigarette' list:
    *Shoplift
    *Run around the block
    *Eat a lozenge
    * Introduce yourself to a stranger
    *Write a letter (i suggest writing to a political prisoner)
    *Go for a short walk
    and yes, they did include....
    * MASTURBATE!

    good luck!
    feel free to PM me here if you would like more info, i could try to scan and send the zine if anyone can't get a hold of it

    Man, Carcinogen is a great track, just picked up the Doom ProLife on vinyl (so if you want the lyrics S.X.D, I can post 'em).
    Those Subhuman songs are awesome too, I actually had the album with Ashtray Dirt and never even put the two together, haha.
    I'm stuck between 1 and two a day still....

    Thanks Anxiety.
    SurgeryX.D. here's the lyrics to "Carcinogen" by DOOM (and the note under the song in the sleeve):

    Stagnant putrid social disease
    Selfish addictions blow in the breeze,
    Class "A" carcinogen polluting the air
    Passive majority breathe unaware.
    Carcinogen!
    (Tobacco kills! Tobacco cigarettes not only contain tobacco but also thousands of other toxic chemicals. Unfortunately smokers are not the only ones affected, passive smokers also suffer. A carcinogen is a substance that causes cancer!)
