Fuckin Boyslikegirls kicks all them bands asses.

Just because a song is featured on guitar hero doesn't make it shitty, theres only 2 songs on my list that are on any of the games, and both I knew and liked before the games were even released.

And, alot of people talking about punk rock emberass me too, but if this emberrasses you, feel free to give examples of what you think is punk.

I didnt mention anything about guitar hero, and if a band is selling their material to a gaming franchise, this automatically breaches the very borders of punk rock.

Clash and Ramones arent punk they are more reggae and alternate. Black Flag, Minor Threat, The Casualties, Gang Green, Sex Pistols that is real punk!

Oi oi oi to all the true punks, anarchy for life!

Your a fucking idiot, you dont even know what anarchy is.

Alrighty then, what would you define punk rock as? (giv sum examples)

Punk doesn't apply to a specific sound of music, people generally assume that anything fast and haggard is punk rock, like sex pistols for example, and while some may protest that sex pistols are punk- they are definitely NOT. Punk is an ethic, it revolves around DIY, and usually revolves around belief in politics and even veganism. If you honestly call sex pistols, or the casualties punk, you are obviously mistaken, you can find any kind of merchandise by sex pistols, even in wal mart. Clocks, arm socks, etc, all fucking ridiculous, and all just strengthening the fact that sex pistols are sell out garbage.

REAL punk can be divided and heard through many sub-genres - grindcore, powerviolence, and the common term "hardcore".

some bands worthy of mentioning, followed by REASONS are listed below:

Swallowing Shit- Hardcore punk from winnepeg, strong vegan beliefs, angry lyrics about right wing sympathy, and even eventually got banned from playing shows because of their offensive material to government.

Dropdead- One of the pioneer hardcore punk bands that contributed to the grindcore sound, heavy, fast, political punk with members that moved on to other bands.

Dystopia- Sludgy veteran band, probably one of the most punk bands in history.

Crossed Out- A second wave powerviolence band that released everything DIY, and gave birth to the powerviolence era, among other bands like Man Is The Bastard

There is no new punk

sure there is, you just dont know where to look. You're obviously not going to find any true punk over tv or radio, but there is a very large underground scene, full of new talent and many hardcore and punk bands are bringing back the true meaning and representation of punk rock.

[Insomnia]

[Gorgankle]

1. Sorrow - Bad Religion
2. Yer Wrong - NOFX
3. Skulls - Misfits
4. Wake Up - Rancid
5. Clampdown - The Clash
6. No God - The Germs
7. Teenage Eletric - Circle Jerks
8. Recipe For Hate - Bad Religion
9. God Save the Queen - Sex Pistols
10. Far Behin - Social Distortion

I didnt mention anything about guitar hero, and if a band is selling their material to a gaming franchise, this automatically breaches the very borders of punk rock.

The band itself doesn't get to choose that option it's the record label. The only way they can prevent something like that from happening is go into their own independent label. Learn the music biz

[l33er th4n l33t]

IM biggest Casualty fan here prob. Got every CD and DVD. Jake is awsome on guitar!

 

[MegaMatt]

In the early days Dropkick Murphys were punk, they've merged over more into a celtic scene but all of the DKM songs I posted were off their first album.

Also to Severe:
Seriously, your making punk seem like its some huge image that if you don't follow, then your not punk. Theres more to punk than what your saying. Theres subgenres: Oi/Streetpunk, hardcore, the rowdy 70's etc etc etc. If you like your own subgenre, good for you, i'm proud of you, but not all of punk is based on that one type. And something about selling out: If a band changes its beliefs, genre, stuff like that, then sure, thats selling out and its understandable to stop liking a band because of it. But if a band does something like put their music on a video game, its no different than having their song on the radio or even doing gigs. They want to get their music out there, and maybe make a few bucks doing it, which really isn't selling out.

Also, if your the biggest casualties fan, don't you think you'd atleast spell their name right? =P

 

[l33er th4n l33t]

I did....

 

[MegaMatt]

i've never really heard of the casualties being referred as just casualty, but meh, whatever

its a sick band nonetheless

 

[l33er th4n l33t]

[bizcuits21]

I am a pretty big fan of Lars of Rancid.

 

[l33er th4n l33t]

He is way better than tim.

 

[MegaMatt]

Rancid is amazing. Back in the days when they played with The Ramones was amazing. But they're still great!

Heres rancid and dropkick murphys doing one of my favourite songs: Skinhead on the MBTA

Are you kidding me? This is a joke like 2-3 kids out of everyone posting here even know what real punk rock is and even then your not posting good songs or some of the better bands. This is a pointless topic you kiddies need to quit sythe for a year and go take a course in punk rock 101 and get the pop punk and girl scout garbage out of here. I thought this was gonna be a real punk topic not shit on a stick.

In reality Those who did post on here about pop punk and not actual punk only posted on here once, and then left. Why waste time posting on here when they are already gone and won't even listen to what you have to say?
