The Saints are best known for their debut single "(I'm) Stranded", one of the undisputed classics of the original punk era, but I think their second album Eternally Yours is the more interesting and the one that's best stood the test of time. It's still a punk record, at least in the way that term was understood at the time, but there are a lot of other things going on there too and you can hear the start of the progression that eventually took Ed Kuepper into Laughing Clowns.
This is a track from that album and is possibly one of the most biting, cynical songs ever written by anyone.
