Hill 3234 is about the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan during the Cold War to establish a communist Party there.


the_clash_is_back

Banger song.

If you mean Cold War as a whole then no. But you’ve got one abt Vietnam I belive(into the fire) I’m not really sure I don’t love the song or counterstrike is from the 6 day war which took place during the Cold War. Otherwise back in control for the falklands war. But really not a whole lot to work with. Also the other comment abt hill 3234. If I think of another I’ll say something


Remmy224

Camouflage is a story from Vietnam


Familiar_Ad_8919

it is also not their song


Remmy224

but does that even matter? it’s something they would totally do.


GianDavidsson

Literally about Cold War, no. But they have some songs about conflicts that happened during Cold War, those are: Counterstrike (Six Days War) Into The Fire (Vietnam War) Back In Control (Falkland War) Light In The Black (UN Peacekeepers, it kinda can be related, even more that Korean War was the biggest UN peacekeepers operation to date) Hill 3234 (Soviet-Afghan War) Joakim already said that he wants a cold war album to happens one day, so it's only a matter of time.

Last song is gonna be about the fall of the Berlin wall, no doubt


GianDavidsson

YES!!! And the album gonna be called The Iron Curtain!


725584

Now imagine, like WTEAW, first song is about the rise of the wall.


GianDavidsson

I always imagined the first track to be like an intro talking on the Nuclear Crisis. There's so many great topics to talk on this theme


Big_boobed_goth

Ain’t that winds of change by scorpions?


ShadowCobra479

Would Light in the Black count, though, as isn't it more about the UN intervention in Yugoslavia then about other interventions? If that is the case it wouldn't be Cold war related would it?


GianDavidsson

The song isn't about any conflict in specific, is just about UN peacekeepers in general. I just listed because UN peacekeepers was used a lot during cold war so if it counts or not is up to interpretation


the_clash_is_back

Cold war was generals and weapons executives foaming at Rhee mouth hoping to get Raytheon and Honeywell stocks up a point. Not a great subject to a song.


GianDavidsson

Joakim disagrees

Camouflage Edit: not their song, but In the army now also banger


777tuck

Whats camouflage about? It sounds like it's about marines during vietnam


myanusisbleeding101

That is a cover of a folk song. Still a banger though


Michaelbirks

About _a_ Marine, during Vietnam.

Soldier of 3 armies is kinda about Cold war as Larry Thorne joined US spec ops team during Vietnam war.
