Not a huge punkfan, but there is some fantastic stuff out there. Some of my favourite songs:

(Swedish stuff)
(More swedish stuff ^^)

 

[bolt thrower]

One of my earliest favourite punk songs

Toxoplasma is awesome, early german punk in general is great.






Sell me your old punk vinyls!

 

[Finnpin]

This 80s Finnish band had a gig first time in Los Angeles some months ago. Some oldskool 50 year old Californian punk fans started to drop tears when they met their youth idols from the 80s.

 

[Finnpin]

- I remember when we were kids, we used to play outside
- I remember when we had fun with no worries
- Now pals/friends walk with ties on their necks
- I guess they growed up
- They even dont say hello to me

- I remember when as young lads, we hanged around together
- I remember when we drank beer till the morning
- Now we taste little bit beer at the restaurant
- Then back to home
- Was fun again, right?

- I guess I will never grow up
- And I dont want to
- I just want to have fun
- I guess I never want to grow up
- And I dont want to
- I just want to walk with "twinkle" on my eye

 

[Hippasus]

Some Massachusetts hardcore to help recover from the draft woes.

 

[Big Ed]

Some Massachusetts hardcore to help recover from the draft woes.

 

[Finnpin]

- Police drives with a blue car
- Police has voice/whistle on the (car) roof
- Police beats with a rubbery nightstick
- Police threatens people with jail/drunk tank

- It's nice to drive with a blue car
- It's nice to beat up (people) with rubbery nightstick

- System guard, the police duty is
- Police beats hippies

(This band started as punk ^ and then became one of the biggest and famous bands in Finnish music history in "Finnish Rock" scene)

And check post #81 ^^ , I added some translated lyrics

 

[Everlasting]

 

[bolt thrower]

Prefer their old stuff but it's not bad.

Finnpin, thanx for that eppu normaali song, never heard of that band.
Love finnish hc/punk stuff like Riistetyt, Kaaos, Terveet Kadet and so on.

 

[Siamese Dream]

I can't believe it's taken me this long as a hockey fan to discover this song

[Yt]KAIUf_SYpwE[/MEDIA]

I completely agree with the lyrics as well. I'm not even Canadian but the growing militarism on display at hockey games in Canada is a joke, you kind of expect it from the Americans but not there.

 

[Siamese Dream]

Saw Bad Religion live last night in Bristol and Greg said they'll be back next time with a new record...

 

[Bob Richards]

Made more sense to revive this thread and post this rather than the other punk one.

 

[Kshahdoo]

Here is the best punk rock ever, there hasn't been anyone close to Yegor Letov. Who was actually fighting system and not making money out of so-called protest.

 

[Legionnaire]

ran across this tonight.



Seems like something Ian could have released with Skewbald/Grand Union

You've never heard of Minor Threat before that? One of the greats. The DC hardcore punk scene was legit. Bad Brains, Fugazi, Youth Brigade, The Untoucables. Dischord Records in general.

I was actually coming in to post that I had been listening to them a lot lately.

No, no. I've heard of Minor Threat. Can't count the number of times I've listened to Out Of Step or even the Complete Discography. I don't have enough cred to say that I remember watching Ian yell "New York sucks!" on SNL when it was live, but I've been listening long enough that I bought both previously mentioned albums on cassette more than once.

That specific track (Understand) was released on a Dischord compilation - lol, apparently in the early 2000s - that I somehow missed and overlooked for years.

 

[Legionnaire]

My mistake my friend. I took it more like you had never heard of them. But yeah, you definitely know what's up

 

[FrozenJagrt]

Smash and Ignition by The Offspring were basically all I listened to through high school.

The Sufferer and The Witness by Rise Against got me through some rough stages in my early 20s.

While not purely punk, Crisis by Alexisonfire is my favourite album of all time.
