getting back into some Punk

[25133WhooOoAH]

yeah so i used to be into punk a long long time ago, and Metal took over for good reasons....Cuz its in everyway a Superior Genre of Music, but today i was bored and started digging, and decided to look up bands with no albums i havent heard, i missed like 2 albums from my old fav bands each.
nofx, pennywise, Propagandhi, Millencolin.......just downloaded there new albums and its good shit, i love new nofx's album - Wolves in wolf clothing and Propagandhi is amazing! I feel like im 13 again

[Dopie Opie]

Check out the last two Rise Against cds....Siren Song and I forget the new one, but they are of the same world as NOFX and Pennywose. i was never much of a punk guy,more hardcore, more metal, but Rise Against really impressed me

[mikeybot]

I'm more East Coast/British punk myself. Don't forget about Bad Religion though.

[Exanimate]

I have been listening to The Exploited for the past couple of days. Punk, but the later albums went more in a Thrash direction. Maybe that is why I like them so much.

[voxy rotten]

Fucking Biking Latterman!

my favorite new punk band. if you like hot water music or against me, you will dig them.

[25133WhooOoAH]

Bad Religion are one of my favorite bands, still amazing today too, pretty much the only punk band i kept up with still after i stopped listening to it.

[Dopie Opie]

Old school punk - the British shit is the best - The Expolited, GBH, Discharge, some great stuff. Its a completly different sound than American punk.

I will try a simple equation.

British punk = The Clash
American punk = The Ramones

[whoisisthis]

I think early west coast punk/hardcore beats the cunt out of most those early uk bands. Black Flag, TSOL, Circle Jerks, DRI, Bad Religion, Agent Orange, Wasted Youth, The Stains... I could go on forever.... no uniforms, no stupid image or hairstyles, just kick ass music

I've been into punk since I started highschool and I love it as much today as I did then. And you're right 25133WhooOoAH, Bad Religion is a fucking amazing band. I'm into west coast/british stuff personally.

[atxklown]

I got to have some Dropkick Murphys or Rancid whenever they tour near my town. I still can't get into Flogging Molly but some great pits at their shows.

Don't forget Dead Kennedys in any West Coast punk talk.
Whenever I think of DRI, I also think of the "old" Corrosion of Conformity. The Eye for an Eye and Animosity cds to be precise. Great harcore/punk/crossover shit.

i agree. bad religion have been going strong for a few decades and are still relavent. greg graffin's vocals, brett's guitar (especially on this last record), and the fucking harmonies. gotta love it.

of course i have to mention pennywise and nofx, but i also dig mxpx and saves the day. and i know they're a classified more as ska, i love less than jake.

Ever check out the Alkaline Trio? Would prob like them...

Other cool punk/hardcore bands to check out if you haven't...Lifetime, Kid Dynamite, Bouncing Souls, Avail...all big bands in terms of punk, but if you never bothered to check them out, they are all rael good.

[Angelfuck]

definitely, them nofx, lagonwagon, bad religion, flogging molly, no use for a name, and strung out are all I have been listening to lately.. a little old school pennywise too

[25133WhooOoAH]

oh yeah dude i know alkaline trio , before i was into metal i was big into punk so i know Alot too about this genre of music, Bouncing souls are sick too.

I heard a new saves the day song and it was awful

Out of all i used to listen too i dont like most of it.....but when i get in my punk moods i always go back to
Nofx, Pennywise, Bad Religion, Propagandhi, Lagwagon(new album) is the best punk i've heard in like 5 years

[kevtv]

fuckin saves the day went to complete shit...their 3rd album was ok after repeated listens, after that they got relaly really bad. i saw them sat at warped, they were ok but such a shell of the band that i used to really really like.

the first saves the day album was so much like lifetime, prob why so many people initially loved them. saw lifetime in july, one of the cooest experiences ever.

[25133WhooOoAH]

Quoted for truth.Always a black flag/circle jerks fan.I don't know why but I just now,at age 42,am discovering the Dead Kennedys.

[kevtv]

yea, can't slow down, then through being cool. they did that acoustic ep in between which is really good. stay what you are was the 3rd album that had a few ok songs, after that they really shit the bed.

[ol' Cabey leg]

Not too punk, but ive been listening to Goldfinger's first 2 albums alot lately. And Nerf Herder.

[Samhain]

I highly recommend any fans of classic American Hardcore see the new documentary on The Minutemen, We Jam Econo. http://theminutemen.com/home.html

Probably the best Punk Rock documentary I've ever seen. Even people unfamiliar with the music will be fans of the band by the end.

Here's some other "punk" bands I enjoy that have yet to be mentioned: The Stooges, The Misfits(1977-1983), Minor Threat, Flipper, FEAR, Dead Milkmen, Angry Samoans, The Dictators, The Meatmen, Negative Approach, The Dicks, Butthole Surfers, MDC, Mourning Noise, and The Bad Brains.

Gotta second the plug for The Minutemen.

I've always thought X was one of the coolest punk bands ever...

[BeezerBlanks]

I've been in a real metal/punk state of mind lately. My punk listening has been Vandals, Goldfinger, GOB, Dead Kennedys and this local punk band that broke up a few years ago, they're called Lounge. They have a myspace http://www.myspace.com/11916464 . While not my first intro to punk i still love the sound they had.

[Fuck Crosby]

i just got rancid's "and out comes the wolves from a friend" from a friend, so that is what i have going on.

I've been meaning to ask, and since this is a music thread: When did Joe Jackson cover "Bananaphone"? Is there a video?

[7cent]

Fungus 53, would be the reason I kept XM if the boys left. I record 5 hours a night on my MYFI everynight, and every day I have a bank of great shit..

[whoisisthis]

same here


I can listen to hours of recorded shit, and usually onely skip past 10% at the most
