"We fight forever, for all you despise!"
Or, yes.
a pack of wolves:
--- Quote from: Navetta ---I am taken aback by the fact that only one person mentioned The Descendents. Crazy. I personally think that they are one of the greatest punk bands ever. But this may just be because I theyre very surf infuenced, and i love surf, but still, come on. Several people mentioned Black Flag, i personally cant stand them, mainly because of Rollins, and the fact that they are the reason the Descendents broke up. Im also amazed that not one person said anything about the Melvins. King Buzzo rocks, and now with one Jello Biafra touring with them, they are the new greatest quattro ever.

Rollins is bulletproof. Even when he's doing shite like Scrapheap Challenge (or whatever variant it was he presented) he's still bulletproof because, well, it's Hank. As for the Melvins/Biafra material, like so much of Biafra's post-DK stuff it just sounds like an inferior Dead Kennedys which is a horrible waste of a band as good as The Melvins. I'm much more interested in this whole Melvins/Big Business team-up. Now that could be something really special.
Since a few of the great US bands have already been fawned over I feel rather compelled to add a list of UK stuff that's been sorely overlooked:
Bob Tilton, Canvas, Driven Down, Fig 4.0 (greatest melodic hardcore band ever. Yes, that does mean better than Kid Dynamite and even Dag Nasty), Stand, D-Rail, Get Stuffed, Charlie Don't Surf, Urko, Imbalance, Grover, Dagobah, Ebola, The Devils, Stalingrad, Narcosis, Voorhees, Mock Heroic, What Price Wonderland?, We Are Corpses!!, Trencher, Hard To Swallow, Solanki... damn we're good at punk.

Don't forget Blitz (even thought most oi sucks), Dogshit Sandwich, Rotunda, the Partisans, the Buzzcocks, and Leatherface.
Thrillho:
I think that my band is as punk as punk can be.
To most punks, selling records is selling out, major labels, etc. as far as I can tell.
We are SO punk, that we don't want anyone to like our music. We deliberately try and alienate everyone. And usually, it works. Disdain is our fandom.
We are also entirely self-serving and anti-establishment, in that we make our music entirely for our own entertainment, using no money, terrible recording equipment and mostly single-take live recordings that usually include hella mistakes.
We. Are. Punk, fuckers.
