The Real Punk Thread

Stormtrooper of Death · 03-25-2008, 07:10 PM

This is a thread to discuss real punk. Fake punk includes, but is not limited to: Blink 182, Green Day and all that other shit. So name some of your favorite bands and what era of punk is your favorite. I've always been into 80's HC and D-Beat and I'd say 1980-1986 is my favorite age.

Tea and Cake or Death · 03-25-2008, 07:18 PM

Well, what kind of punk? Nardcore? Oi? Surf punk? I like 999, RKL, Dr. Know, Stalag 13, Yellow Machine Gun, Cock Sparrer, Dayglo Abortions, Subhumans, UK Subs, The Cramps, Avengers, Crass, Oi Polloi, Sham 69, Angelic Upstarts, ..and of course...thee most "punk rawk band EVAR"...Rancid! *Ducks in anticipation of objects being hurled at her head*

Wow! I kind of let myself down, forgetting to list those. OH! AND...

The Devotchkas
The Plasmatics
Vice Squad
....I give up. Too much to list.

Rancid? Well, they were my first "underground" band. he he he. Hey! We all have to start somewhere. Most of us weren't born with an Ill Repute record in our hands.

Stormtrooper of Death · 03-25-2008, 07:29 PM

And you like Ill Repute too???!!! I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tea and Cake or Death · 03-25-2008, 07:30 PM

*raises eyebrow* Your from So*Cal, aren't you?

Stormtrooper of Death · 03-25-2008, 07:32 PM

No, I'm from Minnesota actually. The frozen shithole of the USA! Why?

Tea and Cake or Death · 03-25-2008, 07:35 PM

Normally all the people I know who are THAT into Ill Repute are Nadcore kids from the Strand.

Stormtrooper of Death · 03-25-2008, 07:37 PM

I see. I prefer the pissed off d-beat of Discharge and Anti-Cimex. I'm not too much into Ill Repute, but I like them a bit.

Tea and Cake or Death · 03-25-2008, 07:38 PM

I see. Very well then. How do you feel about Oi?

Godslayer Jillian · 03-25-2008, 11:56 PM

Oi Polloi, Capitalist Casualties, Flux of Pink Indians, The Clash, and Against Me! of course.

That's fine. It's your prerogative. But, why?

Tea and Cake or Death · 03-26-2008, 10:29 AM

I would have said The Adicts, but for some reason, they just don't really seem punk to me. I mean, I adore them, but, I don't know.

I think it was mostly the singer's voice that I didn't like at all. However, I always also thought that their music was much more sub par than the hype about them. It was like people liked them more because of the novelty of an all-girl street punk band...who were all really hot. I've seen them live countless times, and they've always sounded horrible live. Not to mention, I thought a couple of them (not naming any specific names) were uber snooty. My friend Johnny played drums for them when they were first starting out.

I do like girl fronted punk bands though. Have you ever heard Mankind?, the Relix (aka NY Relx), Naked Aggression, the Eyeliners, Walls of Jericho or Midnight Creeps?

Okay, I'll give you that they are kind of a "girl-gimmick" band

Yeah, as for the other bands, I've heard of them, and a small sample of their works. Oh! The Eyeliners. I bought their album because it was on Blackheart records, & I support Joan Jett like a fiend. Gotta say though, I was really let down.

What do you think of the Lunachicks?
