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

[El Floppo]

I believe my next pick is up? Snake draft right? I'll spare the long winded reminiscences on this one. Although I do have some.

Misfits- Where Eagles Dare

When is that from.

 

[El Floppo]

That’s an epic fugazi tune

 

[modogg]

That’s an epic fugazi tune

Gracias. Definitely is a necessity, thought it would go 1st round. i like my punk hard, fast, and loud, but this band has helped to define what Punk is. Not only through music but how they live and conduct business. Should be on any soundtrack of mandatory punk songs:

Fugazi - Waiting Room  -  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ijnhdfqKRV0

think @JZilla is up, could be wrong though. @trogg78

ETA: i am guessing that isn't an official video. Come to think of it, i don't even know if they have one

 

[AhrnCityPahnder]

I had dabbled in punk in my teens, loving Sex Pistols and not digging Dead Kennedys (that eventually changed). I knew who the Ramones, Fugazi and the Misfits were but never had a source for that sort of music.  The 90s were a long time ago. Then a buddy of mine who was seriously into punk played a few tunes for us in his car while cruising around one night. All of us were deep into grunge and alternative by then, and to my buddy's credit, he chose those songs wisely. Even had the cassettes all cued up for us. Changed all of our lives, literally. 

Couple years later I saw these guys at First Avenue in Mpls with one of the guys from the car. They played this for their encore. Best pit I've ever experienced and one of the singular best moments of my life.

Anyway, this was one of the tunes my buddy played in his Cutlass Cierra, cruising around the back country roads in rural MN all those years ago.

7 Seconds -99 Red Ballloons

Studio version

Live version

I played the live video for my 6 year old a while back. He ####ing loves it. Punk rules.

I played the everloving #### out of Walk Together, Rock Together in 11th grade. 

 

[Mike Damone]

@El Floppo OTC.

I'm going to set end of round 2 as deadline for anyone else to jump in.

Where should I jump in

 

[Herb]

I played the everloving #### out of Walk Together, Rock Together in 11th grade. 

Great album. They put on a righteous show, too. Some of their new stuff is killer.  I believe they're still putting new stuff out, 30+ years in.

 

[rockaction]

Since dead Kennedy’s went, a recording from the deaf club ballady jam band tune for SFs mutants... a tribute to Russ Meyer

A tribute to Russ Meyer. 

?

eta*Awesome song, by the way. 

 

[Northern Voice]

Where should I jump in

You can make 2 picks and be before/after Dickies on odd/even

 

[Dickies]

When is that from.

1979

 

[rockaction]

@trogg78, if Zilla is on skip.   

 

[rockaction]

Forget it, Zilla isn't on skip. they skipped him.  

 

[Eephus]

You can make 2 picks and be before/after Dickies on odd/even

No spotlighting

 

[Northern Voice]

@trogg78, if Zilla is on skip.   

Forget it, Zilla isn't on skip. they skipped him.  

We can skip him again, pretty sure JZ isn't lacking in puck tunes.

 

[Eephus]

1.xx  Hüsker Dü - It's Not Funny Anymore

RIP Grant

 

[Northern Voice]

'Waiting Room' is a song I learned via the Hoof, so yes, in like 2006 or something. I'm thinking maybe via an @AhrnCityPahnder "a 5 song introduction to..." rapidshare but I may be wrong.

We have been doing this for a long time.

 

[Mike Damone]

1- Stiff Little Fingers-Suspect Device

This is off Inflammable Materials, my favorite punk album ever. They tackle the Troubles head on at a time when it wasn’t exactly safe to do so. 

2 The Pogues- If I Should Fall From Grace With God 

Celtic punk  ?Love gearing this in a Subaru commercial 

 

[D_House]

That Stranglers tune was picked in some draft here a while back and is one of my all time favorites. Will be following and hoping to discover new treasures.

 

[rockaction]

@trogg78 then, if we're skipping Zilla. I'm on deck.  

 

[trogg78]

Dead Boys-Sonic Reducer

This is one of my favorite bands. Saw their reunion/revival a few months back and they still put on a great show.

 

[rockaction]

2.xx Minutemen - Bob Dylan Wrote Propaganda Songs

This should take care of the '80s portion of this, not to mention a darn fine song. From What Makes A Man Start Fires?, it's a political song for everybody to sing.  

 

[rockaction]

Dead Boys-Sonic Reducer

This is one of my favorite bands. Saw their reunion/revival a few months back and they still put on a great show.

First band comes to mind when it comes to Cleveland, OH, actually. Weird how that susses out.

Great call on the Pogues, there are a few similar bands I want to draft but am having trouble finding room. My list is so long. 

 

[Mike Damone]

Dead Boys-Sonic Reducer

One of the handful of truly great punk songs. 

How is Stiv’s replacement? Tough task to pull off

I thought he played the part perfectly from what I’ve seen from old footage of Stiv.

 

[BroadwayG]

No matter how old I get, I'll always feel 19 when listening to this stuff.

 

[JZilla]

skip away punks

 

[AhrnCityPahnder]

skip away punks

waiting until 3 weeks from now then making all 20 picks from the trashy remains:  

that's punkrawk.

 

[trogg78]

skip away punks

Did you really want Sonic Reducer?  I could take the Rocket from the Tombs original.

 

[JZilla]

I did not take sonic reducer

skip on, skippers

 

[JZilla]

Really no strategy here.  These things usually take days/weeks to lift off, so I'm happy to see you all rolling along.  Skip skip skiddley dee

So the rules on page one are basically it?  Like I care I'm fouckin punk rawk

 

[Herb]

Dead Boys-Sonic Reducer

This is one of my favorite bands. Saw their reunion/revival a few months back and they still put on a great show.

This song and band were major cornerstones in punk. Great inclusion. 

Watched the Bad Brains doc (mucho gracias @AcerFC )late into the night. One of their main influences was Dead Boys. And Bad Brains beget basically every punk band since.

I once took a piss next to Kevin Seconds right before he went on stage at Turners in Madison, WI. They were the warm-up act, for whom I can't remember.  This was over 30 years ago.  The only reason I recognized him is that he had his eye black on. It was his thing at the time.  We spoke briefly, and it was my claim to fame for a few weeks. Great band, great show.

I was wondering where your avatar came from. Then I watched the first few minutes of this again.  Well done.

why, yes please.

 

[Jaysus]

Waiting Room is the steal of the draft so far...

 

[Jaysus]

P.S. I should just start making picks so I can get made fun of too, right?

 

[AcerFC]

There goes all my blood for blood picks

 

[Mike Damone]

P.S. I should just start making picks so I can get made fun of too, right?

Absolutely 

 

[Jaysus]

Ok, tag me before the round is over and I will make two picks... we'll let NV figure out where to slip me in the order. 

 

[AhrnCityPahnder]

i think you're up.

crap.  thanks.   hey GB @rockaction tag me after you pick in even rounds -- I'm pretty dumb and will miss obvious cues, otherwise.
 

2.x -- Big Black -- Kerosene

Big Black wasn't traditional punk rock in look or musical style - but I dare you to find more than a handful of people more tied to an ethos and a "FU, I'm doin this my way" than Steve Albini.  

@Bonzai , you up
