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

I think I missed my 12th round pick, so I will make up for that with a band that I think should be more represented, in particular this album, so:

12.14 - Minutemen - The Glory of Man (1984)

I always had a little bit of a muddled understanding of Minutemen and Mike Watt, and in re-listening to their catalog, I now remember why.  They really do a lot of different kind of stuff, but through it all, a very DIY and go-your-own-way style and I love what they are thinking and feeling and doing and jamming.

Starting with the affirmation of man
I work myself backwards using cynicism
(the time monitor, the space measurer)

I live sweat but I dream light years
I am the tide - the rise and the fall
The reality soldier, the laugh child
The one of the many, the flame child
(the time monitor, the space measurer)

I never truly got the Minutemen until I was lot older. Knew of them, had heard them, but had never really listened to them. Cool pick.  

 
I've been drinking and listening to PUP, and I'm pretty sure I'm just going to draft the rest of The Dream Is Over at this point 
Never heard these guys but im liking it. 

Sad that I havent gotten into new music much. Send me over some more like these guys.

This might be my favorite punk song of all time. Hard charging, lyrical brilliance, everything. 

New Bomb Turks - Born Toulouse-Lautrec (1993)

All work is honorable
Yet art is just a job
Let me spend my paycheck on a beer
No heroes, no leaders, no artists, no gods
I'm a worker, you're a worker
Wouldn't you like to be a worker too?

i swear someone had to take this, but didn't see it on the excel file. i'll throw a few quick one's for now. 13th round goes to:

Circle Jerks  -  Live Fast, Die Young  -  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1HptaohjSbE

14th round - Don't Call Me White  -  NOFX  - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U5KeXgli768

round 15  -  Uncontrollable Urge  - Devo  -  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8UcpmUQkNU

 can't have 20 rounds of a Punk Draft and not have any Devo. Few bands/artists that will fit this category

As I said, I happen to be buddies with most of the guys from this band. It's been a while but still consider the friends. Text TF all the time about hockey and his Caps. 

Chose this show since it was one of the few places that I sung the Freddy Madball part of this song. Never really saw a bad show at the Trocadero. Probably even ran into jaysus there. 

19, H2O, Guilty by Association, Trocadero

Im going to cheat a little on this band since I never technically saw them at CBGBs. I did see them though so we will just roll with it. 

Talked about my band a little earlier in the thread. We werent a real band. In fact, the bassist and drummer were in the band that I just drafted. Ive told this story on this board before, but long story short. We played a battle of the bands type show to play with member of the Ramones at CBs.  We came in second and played with CJ. The winners were an actual Ramones tribute band and they got to do a small set with Joey. 

This is one of the songs we played in our set.  

20, The Ramones, Carbona Not Glue

And here is our set for anyone who wants to see. Best night of my life, Dec 17, 1999. Almost 20 years ago. Wow
