Punk.

[mutantllama]

Sorry if this sounds really broad.

I've always enjoyed this style of music, but I don't really own anything. So tell me some essentials that I need to pick up.

 

[The Ozzman]

Go to the non-metal forum

 

[mutantllama]

I was thinking about picking up some Misfits. Where should I start from them?

 

[Vimana]

In the non-metal forum.

 

[tagradh]

Buzzcocks.

Fuck_yeah.

 

[Einherjar86]

Whatever. Until this is moved:

The Clash- London Calling
Sex Pistols- Never Mind the Bollocks
Rancid- And Out Come the Wolves

 

[Life Sucks]

The old British classics: GHB, Discharge, The Exploited. That goes without saying. In terms of newer punk, the only band I like is Propagandhi. They are quite aggressive, with some metal/thrash technique in the guitars. They are all vegan and pc to the max, but their music is great.

 

[Alter]

Crass. Crass. Leftover Crack. Crass. Choking Victim. Doom. GBH. World Burns To Death. Ambiex. Crass.

 

[Satanstoenail]

Bad Religion (early)
The Lillingtons
NOFX (early)
Descendants
The Queers

Propagandhi are god-awful. There are so many modern punk bands that blow them out of the water: Thought Riot, Leftover Crack, Rise Against, Society's Parasites etc etc. For that matter, The Exploited are/were pretty ordinary too.

 

[youdontknowme]

Propaghandi are gay

 

[challenge_everything]

no, they don't. bullshit leftwing pro-woman crap. fuck Crass.

Pretty much all punk is left wing pro-woman. Find a reasonable criticism. Most of the 70s british punk bands sung about anarchy and fighting the system, all that bullshit, but Crass were about the only ones to fucking live it, they practised what they preached, and that gave them a real vitality to their music, like the best of 2nd wave black metal
