“Fetch the Pliers” is an instrumental song by Californian powerviolence band Infest. Dionysius of Alexandria reports, in one of his letters, that saint Apollonia had her jaw fractured and her teeth pulled out with pliers by the henchmen of emperor Decius. This blog is something like an imagined dialogue between the Christian culture of late antiquity and powerviolence: an attempt to criticize the establishment violently while rejecting violence, or to promote resistance even under threat of death.
