Punk Rock

[Tilbury]

Never thought this would get any traction on the old forum but might as well give it a go on the new thing.
Anyone else a fan? Any era, any sub-genre, I love it all.

Start with the best album ever made.

 

[Stevencc]

I love a bit of punk.

 

[Pliny Harris]

The first music I got into.

(Punk in general, not the Middle Class.)

 

[Tilbury]

Great stuff.

 

[Jarvis]

Started my voyage into the dark side of music through Punk.

Good to see you here, Tilbury.

 

[Stevencc]

SLF, great choice.

 

[Red]

From A Tonic for the Troops. I reckon it was their best album

 

[Red]

Another of my faves from that album

A young Tim Roth here. Completely understand his behaviour outside the Jobcentre

Love Fugazi, more post-hardcore than punk but it's all relative anyway. Top album.

 

[Jarvis]

Saw Boomtown Rats at a festival in the summer, great performance considering how close to Peaches's death it was.

Who remembers P-Rock?

Good to see you here, Tilbury.

Just listening to a bit of them on the way back from football. Likewise, you too!

 

[Tilbury]

Anyone listened to any ska-punk? A sub genre I've only discovered recently but really loving it. No Doubt, Sublime, Less than jake, Reel big fish etc.

This is probably by favourite track from a fantastic band.

 

[This Charming Mike]

I thought this was a thread about CM Punk and The Rock. Disappointed.

 

[D B Disco]

Have always loved punk, right from the beginning....and still do.

Current faves are these guys.....fucking brilliant!

 

[Benito]

Love me some punk one of my favorite genres most defiantly

 

[Captain Scumbag]

 

[Stevencc]

Richard Hell and the Voidoids!

Absolutely excellent.

 

[Captain Scumbag]

^ Never heard that one. Dylan cover?

 

[Stevencc]

Spot on, yeah.

It's on their second album "Destiny Street".

 

[Captain Scumbag]

For some reason, I had it in my head that the Voidoids only made one album. I must investigate this second one!

 

[Stevencc]

Yeah it's well worth a listen, not quite as good as the first album but that's a high standard to judge an album by.

Some people class Rancid as Ska Punk, others just Punk. Either way, this is a great album.

Whilst going through my iTunes just now to sort out a pop punk playlist, stumbled across this one, bit of a blast from the past:
