Any other punk fans?

[tacotiklah]

Did a google search and didn't see anything on here that specifically mentioned fans of honest to god punk rock music.

Some stuff I'm on a kick for right now:











So anybody else here dig this kinda music as well?

 

[Hollowway]

Old school, nice! I'm a huge punk fan as well. I have Rancid on regular rotation on my iphone. Generally speaking, I think punk is a pretty underappreciated genre, much like most metal. Pop-punk (by definition) isn't, but most punk bands are never heard by most people, and it's a shame.

I am A fan Of Ska and Ska punk

 

[Polythoral]

Not a huge fan of the 'truer' punk like you posted, though Dead Kennedys are great.

I love a lot of more recent punk though.

Lately I've been really getting into modern melodic punk and very punk influenced metal.







NOFX, Anti Flag, Millencolin, old AFI, Bouncing Souls, Suicide Machines, Million Dead, The Explosion.

Also, plenty of ska, which is often grouped sort of with punk, like Goldfinger, Less Than Jake, and Reel Big Fish.

A lot of older pop punk that actually had a punk aspect, too, such as Allister, Fenix TX, Rufio, and Mest.

Do I like punk?









Yes



Seriously though I grew up on punk rock. I lean more towards early 80s stuff, but there's plenty of newer stuff I like too.

[ElRay]

[GSingleton]

When I am in the mood hell yeah

 

[Electric Wizard]

I love punk. I don't really listen to it much anymore except for the older British Oi bands. I was huge into hardcore and the straight edge scene back in the day. Pop punk is good too, when done right.

 

[tacotiklah]

I feel like I'm really late to the party on this, but I'm now discovering the genre "queercore".

 

[SkapocalypseNow]

Love punk. Old stuff, new stuff, mixed in with other stuff when it's done right. 'sall good to me. Rancid, The Vandals, Anti Flag, NOFX, Authority Zero, Descendents (They sorta started my love for it. Gateway punk, if you will ). Also got a bit into old hardcore punk, although the progression it took confuses me.

And going with a lot of the mentions before, ska and ska-punk

 

[Divinehippie]

ska and ska/punk for sure. Against all authority is a sweet band. i love Reel Big Fish and Streetlight Manifesto

 

[poopyalligator]

I am a huge punk fan. Although not in the "real punk rock" way. I love bands like Bad Religion, pennywise (old stuff anyway), NFG, Fenix tx, millencolin. Pretty much a lot of pop punk stuff also. Most punk rockers would call me a poseur, but fuck them lol.

 

[Kwampis]

Here's some more.

Fugazi because post-punk is awesome.


Rites of Spring was simply an incredibly intense band.


Husker Du was way more than just a punk band, but when they played punk songs they nailed it.


And NoMeansNo is just criminally unknown.

A punk thread with no Circle Jerks is a bad punk thread:

 

[Kwampis]

Bad Religion

They were the first band I ever got seriously into. I think they've been going downhill lately, but Suffer through Stranger than Fiction are six amazing albums, and I don't think they've ever put out anything outright bad.

Pretty much a lot of pop punk stuff also. Most punk rockers would call me a poseur, but fuck them lol.

Yep, those guys are assholes.

Well, we must have an awesome thread now since I posted some earlier.

Still needs some DOA though.

 

[tacotiklah]

^Aha! so you did. I feel retarded now.

I am the same way. Bad Religion was the band that inspired me to pick up a guitar. I am a fan of all of their earlier work. I even liked a couple of the newer albums. I actually thought "process of belief" was one of their best pieces of work. However the past 3 or 4 albums have been pretty shitty.
