Kid Dynamite
 

Kid Dynamite featured members originally from Lifetime and who went on to form None More Black, The Loved Ones, and Paint it Black. They hailed from Philly and wrote melodic hardcore/pop-punk songs that were short, fast, hard, and free. Oh my god, it's anarchy. Except not really, just some pretty great songs about girls and friends and the scene. Usual **** really but somehow they melded together really heavy, aggressive music with pop and still sounded great without seeming like a novelty (IE, Fishbone). They broke up, they reunited, one time they played at the Fest in Gainesville. They kinda kicked ass.

**** yeah dude. They had the formula for making punk rock better (shorter, faster, louder.) And their cover of Rise Above is way better than hearing Rollins grunt it out.

... Ethan!?!

Yes?

You are Ethan?

Ethan didn't like black metal. BUSTED.

Which is why I was totally pimping out Two Hunters before I left?

Wtf. Welcome back dude, why aren't you logged into your main? :wave:

Eh, I just kind of wanted a new start. I don't like Radiohead at all anymore and Crowquill was a better username than "sleepy jack" to begin with.

Yeah, it's a better name.

Glad to see you're back man, I hope life's treating ya well

It's pretty good. Being an adult in your twenties > being a teenager. How've you been?

Sort of struggling with the transition to adulthood. I think I'm a few years younger than you so it's just growing pains, but it's a process that everyone goes through in varying degrees. But being a teenager sucked too lol, so I'm excited for independence

It's pretty rad. What have you been listening to? Going to school or anything? I feel lost coming back here.

Place has changed a lot. I don't even see Urban or anyone around here anymore. And guys like sweet_nothing left years ago

I've been mostly catching up on 2013 releases because I didn't listen to anything for the first half of the year. The new MBV, Boards of Canada, The Knife, QOTSA, Ghostface, etc

I'm going to school right now, delayed choosing a major forever but I I'm pretty confident I'm going into the medical field (medical school if I get in)

how about you?

That's pretty cool. I dropped out school due to a complete lack of ambition.Yeah I'm only seeing a handful of familiar faces ): and name changes! I've been good. Post school I've been focusing on music, so now I just jam, enjoy washington's new recreational fun laws, work on a zine and slack at work. I've been listening to mostly new punk stuff this year (RVIVR, The Bronx, Off with Their Heads, Menzingers, Radioactivity, Iron Chic) but the new Darkthrone album is pretty up there.

I did the same with school lol, but didn't have a backup plan so now I'm back in.

Sounds like things are good for you. Do you still keep in contact with any old MBers outside of the forum?

And I ****ing want to move to the Pacific Northwest really bad, but it's not realistically gonna happen for at least 3-4 more years

Only the people I have on facebook (Captain Caveman, Laces Out Dan!, swim, djchameleon - who got me to come back -, and one or two others whose usernames I don't remember.) I love living up here, it's awesome. So many good shows and the grim/frostbitten weather \m/

Get your photography thread going again mang, if you still enjoy doing that kind of thing. Washington looks awesome when you're stuck in the boring Midwest

I don't even own a camera anymore ): otherwise I would.
