sSo apparently not looking to make friends on this board but I'm sorry, nofx sucks and they have nothing to do with skinhead anthems. Their songs are all about evasion of guilt and attempting to make fun of people who actually try to make a difference. Is nice that they try to bring humor to punk that's fine but I just can't stand people who consider their songs anthems and they quote nofx like anything they say should be taken seriously.
If I wasn't so disgusted with politics as a whole, I'd prolly ask you what your political standpoint was.
What are you, Pro Bush?
Hehe.

sham 69-kids united is kind of epitome of skinhead anthems
i always felt that hurry up harry was a better one, since kids is so over-the-top anthem-y. i like my anthems slightly less obvious

"Don't Call Me White". I think it's by NOFX, but all I know is the Rancid cover.
And anything with Skinhead Rob in it. Hate on me all you like, I don't hate him. 
I'm pretty sure that song is about being Jewish and has nothing to do with skinheads or Rancid.
First off, Rancid does an awesome cover.
Secondoff, that's like saying "The Brews" isn't a skinhead song. 
I'm also pretty sure Saraphine just explained this whole thing to me complete with lyrics. Thanks for paying attention.
The part about being circumcized I think is what made me think it was about being Jewish. Also I hadn't thought about the idea of not wanting to be called white even though you actually ARE white... that sort of makes me like the song less, like the narrator just won't own up to what his racial heritage implies.
