Long-running Richmond hardcore band Government Warning played their last show last Saturday night at Strange Matter. They ended their set with the title track from their 2007 EP Arrested, bringing an entire era in Richmond hardcore to a close. The crowd, already whipped into a frenzy, went particularly nuts for this song, stagediving so much that the camera gets taken down a couple of times, and grabbing the mic for singalongs on almost every line. This video does a great job of capturing the furious energy of Government Warning in a live setting, the likes of which we won’t see again.
