I changed the description of Imperiet's lyrics from "very left-wing" to "left-wing and anti-imperialist" since one example is C.C. Cowboys, which is more the latter than the former (since it is an equal critique of USA and the Soviet Union). Kronocide 01:59, 13 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Btw, just FYI: "Always red, always right" is about the heart. The lyrics begin

"Machines taking over/Is there something we need/Machines that put to sleep/When my heart is pounding and bleeding

There is a song in every soul/Passion is something we need so much

A heart is always red/A heart is always right/A heart stinks from blood and sweat/A heart is always right"

So maybe not so very left-wing as the title can lead you to think. Kronocide 02:20, 13 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Naming

edit

I recall they were forced to change the name from Rymdimperiet (The Space Empire) to simply Imperiet (The Empire) after legal pressure (Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back was released a few years earlier so the name probably came from there). // Liftarn
