Punk is dead.
 

Not really, but who are some of your favorite punk bands?


Some of mine:

(older)- Sex Pistols, Misfits, the Buzzcocks, the Ramones, Black Flag,UK Subs, Elvis Hitler, GBH, and Fear


(newer)- NOFX,Ten Foot Pole, Me First and the Gimme Gimmes, $wingin Utter$, Lagwagon, Dropkick Murphies, the Queers,the Bouncing Souls, Sick of It All,Millencolin, and Guttermouth.

Old:Nausea, JFA, GBH, Misfits!, Clash, Fear, Minor Threat, Blatz, TSOL, DI, Beastie Boys

New: Wizo, Casualties

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!I cant believe I forgot Minor Threat and TSOL!I also forgot the Dead Kennedys and the Circle Jerks!

DK and Circle Jerks are good. Dead Milkmen also, Generation X, Oxymoron, Blanks 77, The Business, The Adicts, some more i cant think of now

Beastie Boys are now PUNK? WTF?:confused:

I dont know much about punk but AAAAHAHAHA! Beastie Boys?!

Nope. Not at all. Rap? yes.


Ghetto? 3 rich jewish boys from New York, hardly hardcore.. Mike D is Neil Diamond's kid, for christs sake....

Sorry to crap on your thread...

I really hate punk. Anyone can sing like that. The 3 chord guitar riffs are a joke, almost as much as the drums are.

The only talented person in a "good" punk band is the bassist. There are exceptions, but they are few and far between.

Actually i hate to poop on your guys time but the Beastie Boys "were" punk listen to Egg Raid on Mojo from the album "Some old bullshit" In fact listent to the whole fucking thing. Sorry if i got you confused with the newer Beastie Boys :rolleyes:

Before they started rapping they had a punk band.Im not sure, but I think the drummer from Luscious Jackson was in the band.

Correctomundo.

Avril Lavignengagnia!!! :D

HAHHAHA

yeah, "punk" is dead....it was just a fashion statement anyway....

Punk is not dead! and it is not a fashion statement

Its a state of mind, not a fashion statement(IMO).Goth-now theres a fashion statement th that should be dead.

Bad Religion, NOFX, Rancid, Millencolin, Pennywise, Lagwagon, Agnostic Front, Flogging Molly, Refused, Gimme Gimmes, No Use for A Name, Tilt, The Fighting Tongs, 10 Foot Pole.

I also like Green Day, Offspring, and Weezer but due to the fact they receive such heavy airplay, I don't know that they would still be considered punk. (I know Weezer never really was to begin with.)

Refused kick ass :cool:

I guess I need to check Refused out-any suggestions?

The New Noise-The Refused. Their biggest song. Also if you can find it the cover of Bullet :cool:

Cool, thanx for the tip HB!

Anytime babe ;)

Yeah, punk WASN'T a fashion statement. Now it is. It sure isn't a music genre anymore. The stuff that gets called punk now'days is either some pop-style watered down grunge type rip off of the same old Green Day song or shit like Blink 182.


And there's still always the old "Once something is classified as punk it ceases to be punk" theory

I dont listen to anything new. New music has let me down. Therefore i am stuck in the 80s

theres some newer punk bands that are good...well not nec. new, but not from the 80's....like the casualties aren't that bad and some others...but right now i simply can't think...too tired

yeah Casualties are alright. But i like Psychobilly now.

WTF are you listening to?Yellowcard and The Lost Prophets are a joke.

A local band in Seattle called the Spits mix sounds of the Ramones and the Adicts together thats one new band i like

that is fucking fucked up bc 1 of my friends came over stoned as fuck after brit left and we were hangin out in my room(note my room is trippy as fuck)...and all of the sudden they started playing and i didn't realize i even had stuff from them

Really? Their fucking awesome i like the song "Bring"

heres some of the lyrics

Dumped your body on the lower east side, with pools of blood in my brand new ride. You know your bringing me down

haha, niceee...i don't have a lot of their stuff though:rolleyes:

DL Bring you asshole! Its an awesome song

sounds good...will do

throbbing gristle....................

oh yeah the mother fucking stooges

black flag

but whatever, labels are stupid....and punk was a fashion statement, just do a little reserch on macolm mclaren.90%of punk bands today are nothing but boy bands with tattoos for the hot topic tenny-boppers, or surf-jock meatheads like nofx, etc.

My favorite punk rock bands are:
Crass
Skeptix
X-ray-Spex
Vice Squad
The Business
Cock Sparrer
Nausea
Black Flag
Conflict
Dead Kennedy's
Circle Jerks
Reagan Youth
Exploited
The Varukers
The Germs

Nice list. Nausea, Crass, DK, Varukers......damn you got it ;)

Toxic Narcotic. :D

I'll name a few more. Total Chaos, Turbonegro, The Business, Blitz, Oxymoron, X Ray Spex, Lower Class Brats, The Germs, Nomeansno, DOA, Love and Rockets, Generation X, Adolescents, Gang Green, Dead Milkmen, DI, TSOL, THe Meatmen, Charged GBH(not the new shit really), Devotchkas, Adicts and i could go on for days
