    Copkiller by John Maus
    Footage from Copkiller: www.imdb.com/title/tt0085366/
    (John Lydon, Harvey Keitel)
    "Cop Killer is the perfect way of putting over the idea that any worthwhile political or artistic agenda should be seeking an undoing of the situation as it stands. Whether the status quo is a political state or a musical language, the idea should be to kill or overthrow that. The song's not about killing a human being, but about overcoming inhumanity; destroying the machinery that turns us toward an end other than ourselves."

    Copkiller or Copkiller (l'assassino dei poliziotti), also known as Corrupt and
    The Order of Death, is a 1983 Italian crime thriller directed by Roberto Faenza and starring Harvey Keitel and musician John Lydon, singer for the Sex Pistols and Public Image Ltd.
    It is based on Hugh Fleetwood's novel The Order of Death, which was set to be the original title of the production. Fleetwood also adapted and wrote the screenplay with Faenza and Ennio de Concini. The music was composed by Ennio Morricone.
    According to IMDb it was filmed in 1981 and released in 1983 in Italy and 1984 in United States. It is John Lydon's only starring role in film to date.

      " We're all just playing on our smartphones, popping little texts back and forth and saying nothing at all. What the album title means to me is: come on guys, we should struggle to interrupt that. We should what pitilessly censor ourselves ? I'm sure I sound like the most ineffectual type of clown who's just as complicit with that world as anybody else, if not more so. But the idea is that no art stands a chance unless we struggle, unless we make some kind of effort to think."

    The masochist is the ultimate Hegelian Master. He says "come on, give us your best; annihilate me" thereby he establishes his superiority over his sollicited torturer. "I don't fear humiliation, in fact i derive pleasure from it". It's a meta power game.

    Music is amazing isn’t it. I’m watching Russian Doll for the first time. I hear this song and I’m like wow !! What’s that ? Sounds amazing. Shazam…I’m listening to the song in more depth to hear he’s saying “let’s kill the cops to tonight”…then I think to my self..that’s quite a wild thing to say on a track🤔….then I go down a rabbit hole of research behind the track to realize it’s a metaphor against police brutality. George bush was on of many political people who was against this track at the time. Ice T backed this record saying it’s more of a protest record. Which I agree. Especially after seeing this video for the first time. Music will always be an extraordinary piece of art.
    I think what I like most about this track is the 80s sound. There’s just something about the 80s. The only artists I know of in this day and age doing this kind of sound is Casisdead. Listen to his song Park assist, pat earings, boys will be boys and Before this. Mariah the scientist also has a song called All for me. Argh that 80s sci fi sound. Undefeated.
