"Antisocial" is a song by the French hard rock band Trust, from their album Répression. The song was written by Bernie Bonvoisin and Norbert Krief.
Unusually for a hard rock track, it was played on mainstream radio stations RTL and France Inter, helping the album sell over 800,000 copies in 1980. Evoking a dehumanised, individualistic and brutal society, the lyrics captured the social alienation of a generation disillusioned by the excesses of its elders and the 1973 oil crisis. According to rock critic Michka Assayas, "Antisocial" is "the hymn that definitely buried the Glorious Thirty".
