Bedtime For Democracy

Dead Kennedys
Punk 1986

Bedtime for Democracy is the fourth and final studio album by American punk rock band Dead Kennedys. Released in 1986, songs on this album cover common punk subjects often found in punk rock lyrics of the era such as conformity, Reaganomics, the U.S. military, and critique of the hardcore punk movement. The album's title refers to the 1951 comedy film Bedtime for Bonzo, starring Ronald Reagan, and also reflects the band's weary bitterness from the trial they were undergoing at the time over the controversial art included with their previous album.
