Music - Punk

[Jonathan M.]

First off, I've done a search, and no topics seemed to shine directly upon Punk music itself.

Okay so who likes Punk? Favorite bands?

To name 5, Minor Threat, NoFX, Rise Against, Anti-Flag, and Pennywise.

Discuss.

Yeah like I said, I was only naming 5. I like most of the other bands you mentioned too.

How 'bout everyone list your top 10 favorite punk bands of all time. (New school, old school, pop-punk, <insert genre>-punk, anything.)

Check out 20 Years of Dischord. It is an AMAZING box set. Dischord is a local label in DC and has been recording stuff from short lived (and longer lived) bands for a long time.


*edit*
The B&N page dosn't list the full track listing. The full track listing can be found here.

I prefer Emo and punk.... but emo more....to name a few( Taking Back Sunday, Thrice, From Autumn to Ashes, Story of the Year, MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE!!! )

Ska( Less than jake, Mustard Plug, Atom and his Package)

ALSO HEAVY METAL!!!( UNEARTH, LAMB OF GOD, PANTERA, HATEBREED, A DOZEN FURRIES)

[JamizzleHavok13]

I listen to stuff like AFI, Thrice, Avenged Sevenfold, Atreyu, Minor Threat, and Tiger Army, among other non-punk bands.

Tsunami Bomb is my #1 favorite band, I'll be seeing them next Friday with Flogging Molly, and yes, I will be missing one night of the build. *tear*

I also like Rise Against, Bad Religion, Green Day, among others.

EDIT: How could I have forgotten them, Social Distortion is awesome too.

[gren737]

Lol, I'm gonna try and catch Flogging Molly when they come up to Boston, the night before our regional starts, I haven't seen them live in almost 3 years!!...and Social D is playing the day after we ship our bot....soooo just add another late night up to the tally I guess.

I'll toss out a few punk bands I listen to: Social Distortion, Stiff Little Fingers, One Man Army, Rancid, The Bouncing Souls, The Swinging Utters, The Pinkerton Thugs, Kicked in the Head

I also listen to a lot of ska and irish too.

[Jonathan M.]

Lot's of good bands mentioned. I love the reference to The Pinkerton Thugs, I haven't heard anything from them in a while. Social D rocks! DropKick Murphys is my favorite Irish sounding band. I got the new Flogging Molly CD not that long ago, and I liked the other two better, but it's still good.

I've been listening to Authority Zero, and NoFX - Pump up the Valuum, a lot lately.

Flogging Molly is great live
(Bad Religion is really good, too. )
and Tsunami Bomb!? Yer so freakin' lucky!

Guttermouth, Bikini Kill, Bodyjar, Pretty Girls Make Graves are my favs. I guess I'm more of an indie/lo-fi kinda guy

Social Distortion has made some incredible music. I saw them (with Tiger Army and The Explosion, who were also great) last fall in San Fransisco at The Warfield Theater. I was sore for a day or two afterwards, but man... it was totally worth it.

[DarkJedi613]

I like some of the older stuff - Bad Religion, Pennywise, The Clash, The Ramones, etc.

I hate all the newer stuff though.

[KORN_lover_2007]

Yay! Heavy Metal! And local Kansas punk band KTP!

[Joe Matt]

I'm not totally Punk IMHO, well, I mean I wear polo shirts for crying out loud, but I listen to Bad Religion, The Matches, Green Day, etc. Of course, what really defines punk music? Is it rebellion, is it energy, what is it? If could throw a few more bands into there, but I won't.
