PUNK Music Draft - Now Ongoing post awesome punk songs thread (1 Viewer)

Ill leave this here instead of creating a new thread

My parents got me the new Beastie Boys book for Hanukkah. It is insanely good so far. Im about 200 pages in and they just started rapping. Everything up til now was about the punk and hardcore days. I listened to Adrocks first band on Alexa last night. It is really good for a early 1980s recording. I was expecting egg raid on mojo and got something like Snapcase/Strife

Cant wait to keep reading. It is a really big book and has some awesome pics including one in A7 with Harley Flannagan, Jimmy G and Yauch at some hardcore show. They are all like 15 years old

That's awesome. I own the vinyl version of Paul's Boutique and pull its gatefold butt every so often so I can relate to what you're saying which is pure nostalgia but the Beasties ruled.  

 
nice thing about these drafts is it is helping to expand my spotify history and mix up my daily mixes and other recommendations.  so maybe i will share a few in here that are coming up that i think are very cool.

Choking Victim - 500 Channels

the band broke up on the same day as recording their only album.  love it.

This was on my list of songs I wanted to draft.  I also really like Infested, even though it makes me want to shower afterwards.

 
So I watched two things recently that I thought was worth posting

This is a video about Tom Delonge from Blink. I didnt know what to expect and thought it was awesome. Especially for anyone that plays guitar and wants to see a little into the process of how things work. Very happy I found it

Pursuit of Tone

The next one is Godfather of Hardcore about Agnostic Front. I have seen them a ton. If you are looking for a doc about the history and music of the band, this is not really it. There is a bit in there about it, but it is mostly just about Vinny and Roger and their relationship. Still good though. It is on Showtime this month along with a GG Allin doc I started to watch last night but fell asleep. 

Godfather of Hardcore

 
Can someone explain to me WTF post-punk means?

I always thought of it as like, what bands that start out as punk turn into when they grow up and learn how to play their instruments and write more complex music. But im sure that's not it.

pretty much what i think of as well 

Minor Threat ----> Fugazi

Gorilla Biscuits ------> Quicksand

Underdog -------> Into Another

Burn------> Orange 9mm

AFI----> AFI

But I know what you are saying. I think it is a style of music with bands like Devo and the cult being in that genre. :shrug:

I think of it as punk with some gothic or electronic influence but that's likely because most of the post-punk bands I really like have either that Joy Division influence or a dance/punk sound.

Jawbox has another cover that I thought about taking for my covers category.

I'm a complete honk for J Robbins in nearly all the bands he's been in / production work he's done.

2019 tour dates for Jawbox announced yesterday. Bad day for me for the Chicago show, but I'll jump through the hoops needed to make it happen.

Me:  Gets super excited at the news 

Also me, in Atlanta:  Dallas, Chicago, and DC are the ####### closest cities?    #### Jawbox, I never liked them anyway.

I have one on my list that I saw live while on a trip that fits this criteria.  Not very well known here, but big over there and they put on a hell of a show.  At the start of the draft I would have guessed nobody has heard of them, but people here know their ####, so I'm guessing they are familiar to some.

When you picked Millencolin it got me thinking.  I've never seen them live, and I'm not sure I have been aware of any of their concerts in my vicinity.  Always have wanted to see them

Saw them at Warped Tour once. Honestly they didn’t leave much of an impression one way or another.

Just saw on my FB feed that they are coming to SF in September.  Tempted to go

 
"But I did the Blank Generation album with Richard Hell, and you took his image. All you guys took Richard Hell’s image. That’s all you did."

Ignoring the bolded, that's actually true.  

:lmao:

You can buy Richard Hell's Blank Generation on vinyl for a mere thirty-three dollars these days. I think he went in the seventh round or something of this draft to Mike Damone.

I always thought of it as punk that brought in outside influences- usually more rhythmic/dancey- reggae, dancehall, new wave, whatever.

I was coming in to post this punk panel that my google news feed felt like it was important for me to watch (marky ramone and johnny rotten talking #### to each other).

Just watched a bit of this. Gives Rollins a bunch of crap too. Hank takes it in stride. Marky, not so much

yeah. rollins seems like the one who's still making a go of things on all fronts and probably has the most to lose by responding like an ####### like rotten. but I like that he said his band would've kicked their asses for calling them rich suburban kids.

Black Flag vs. Sex Pistols Battle Royal would have been u-gly.

I'll take Black Flag even at  -900 on the money line

Rollins could have handled the four of them by himself. Greg and Bill could have just sat on the sidelines, but I'd throw Kira in there just to add insult to injury.

tbf- malcolm mcclaren probably would've blinded henry with a fistful of confetti or some ####.

Richard Hell’s autobiography is a good read, “i dreamed I was a very clean tramp.” 

 
Unless we're talking maybe The Stranglers, most of the English punks would not be good at fighting.
