The Clampdown
This song is about the Nazi Party's control of Germany, particularly the establishment of the Hitler Youth. In the opening verses of the song it says, "We will train our blue-eyed men to be young believers". This was a reference to the indoctrination of young men into the ranks of the Nazi party through the Hitler Youth program. The song's message is about resisting popular movements like this and others, refusing to take part in the status quot. The song's upbeat nature and rather defiant, rough singing made the rebellious theme of the song come through better.This song relates more to propaganda because it is about the turning of the German people towards a fascist mindset through the use of propaganda.
