More than 40 years after its release, “Antisocial” remains the anthem of the protests. The 12/13 of March 6 looks back on the story of this legendary hit by the hard rock band Trust.

The song is so worship that most often it is the public who sings it. “Antisocial”, the protester, remains the anthem of the Trust group, always ready to be drawn during social movements. In 2006, it was the fetish refrain of the students. The tube has been essential since its creation it over 40 years ago. The song represents the whole spirit of Trust, anger, rage and the thirst for justice. The most diehard fans don’t just come to listen to music.

“It’s a story of 5 minutes this piece”

“It gives me chills, it moves me, it gives me energy”says a fan. “It’s still relevant, we see it in the street”continues another. “Antisocial” is also a hit to share with friends, as comedian Kad Merad performed on the microphone, accompanied by cook Philippe Etchebest on drums. A success that even the Trust group still wonders about. “He wrote the text in 5 minutes, we recorded it in London in 5 minutes, (…), this piece is a story of 5 minutes”says Norbert “Nono” Krief, guitarist of Trust.
