Ok, so I don't know the forgotten rebels, but this is a punk cover that they made of a great '60s song written by folk(ish) singer barry mcguire, called eve of destruction. It's about war. Its a good update and perhaps more relevant and relatable this way. Either way this song is relevant now
and the original, (notice interpretive dancing)
Update: Alison pointed out that Johnny Thunders may have covered this song, turns out he did. it continues to be relevant.

Doesn't Johnny Thunders cover this song also?
Yea the Johnny Thunders version is solid.
The Dickies do a sweet version on their first album, I could only find a crappy live clip on youtube:
