listin to the old shiznit :hphones:

NoMeansNo, canadian hardcore band, done some compilations with the former lead singer of the dead kennedy's (Download "Jesus Was A Terrorist")

lol why are punk bands so mean to God? Jesus Was A Terrorist lol

I dont look at it as being mean. If you look at what he did back then in a comparitive way to what he would be doing today if he was around. Jesus would have been the number 1 person your parents would tell you to stay away from. He was a radical.

what part of what he did would make my parents not want me to be around him? was it the part where he gave the blind man sight for the first time, or when he gave the mute man the chance to speak for the first time, or when he healed the dying man? just wondering why he would be called a terrorist, isnt that a bit radical? The guy who died on a cross and suffered for our sins, he suffered for something we didnt deserve is a terrorist?... i dunno that doesnt make much sense to me, maybe u could tell me why he is such a terrorist and why i wouldnt look up to him as a role model if i was alive during his lifetime

The Jesus Was a Terrorist thing was just a song, i wasnt actually calling him a terrorist, just naming a song, but neways, lets stay on topic i didnt mean to start an argument lets talk about more :band: than religion ok ?

On the topic of Jesus was a terrorist, by the Dead Kennedys, Jello made a point when he said..."Today bible-thumping cannibals
Reap money from his name
Buy cable networks & power
With old ladies' checks"
In a way, 'Jesus' started all of this. But I'm an Atheist so what do I know.
But on the topic of good music:::
Misfits (OLD-Danzig)
Social Distortion
Dead Kennedys
Hammers to Fences
The Last Hope
Unseen
Casualties
Undead
Refused
some Samhain and Danzig
Misfits (NEW:Graves)
Ten Foot Pole
i could go on and on...

Those all sounded like old bands, are they?

re: PuNk!
 

In my oppinion NOFX aren't really a punk band and are quite frankly ****e. You should be listening to real punk like the buzz****s, the clash and of course the pistols. I'm sick of this american load grunge ****e calling itself punk because its trying to be something that its not. :ar_15s:

The Pogues are a very good Irish folk rock band, but they are often lumped into a punk category. Either If I Should Fall From Grace With God or Rum, Sodomy and the Lash would be their best album.

Conflict are an awesome, very political agit-punk band from England. Check out the album The Ungovernable Force.

Crispus Attucks aren't brilliant, but they're a decent hardcore punk band. Named after a black slave who was the first to be shot in a riot in the 1800s, so they're fairly political as well. Recommended album - Red Black Blood Attack.

british punk is not really 'Punk' in my opinion NOTHING is you cant really clasify music as 'punk' it is a lifestyle. i would say everything out now is a spin off, post hardcore, emo, scremo, and what people call 'punk' would be bands like NOFX and Anti Flag in MY opinion.

currently my favourite 'punk'/emo/ska bands are...

Thrice #1
Misfits # 2... you get the picture
Thursday
Anti Flag
Rise Against
NOFX
The Agency (local ska band that kicks ass!)

awesome ass list dude!

thanks man

p/s to awake and avenge the dead is a rad song :)

YES!!

Hell yeah probably my favorite by then...I love the song deadbolt too.

yeh deadbolt is a sweet song, my bands covering it

Awesome!

Sure is!

any of you guys heard of a band called "the fall of troy"?
personally id classify them as hardcore but musics all about opinions.
also, refused has got to be one of the greatest bands going around

Thats what I've been saying...You are a smart one...It is all about opinion!

hahaha have i hit a nerve? i wish to consult somebody about the band "and you will know us by the trail of dead" anybody that knows them add me


p.s. thrice are arsome, though artist in the ambulance isnt their best album i dont think

Ha ha! I just recently started listening to that band, they are good as hell. I didnt think anyone else heard of them. Oh yeah i agree with the artist in the ambulance thing.

[source taags and codes, their latest album, is the one to listen to as many people find their earlier **** too complex or different to handle. but still, an awsome band.

U Guys Suk I Dint See

Minor Threat
Bad Brains
Circle Jerks

If Ur Into Hardcore Punk Thats What U Should Listen To

Otherwise Ur Fuking Shi+

Hey...dont posts stupid stuff like that...you may state your opinions, but profanity will not be tolerated.

oh ok, well I guess since you're obviously the musical god on the site, the rest of us lowly maggots shuld just succumb to your personal musical preferences or run the risk of being forever known as inferior beings in compared to your all-powerful musical genious.

news flash einstein, people like different music, I suggest that you change your tone, or you're gonna start pissing people off who have the power to ban you, you're already pissing me off.

Im going to agree with Thrice on this one NOFX is deffinatly one of the most uprising Bands in the punk industry today. But also some bands like AFI,American HI-FI,Yellowcard,and The used. They are all also rising.

haha nick thats funny stuff man. u not cussin and warnin ppl to not cuss. u know more cuss words than anyone here and u sound like a goodie goodie. lol

ha ha i know, but i gotta keep it clean in here...its crazy stuff.

yea i agree thrice. i hate it when people are like "ooo thats lame emo sh*t" i mean who cares. and who are u to classify what kind of music it is.

u music nazis

damn right! as far as im concerned i like rap and country bands called thrice and TBS

Wheres Strung Out?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?
 

hey guys, there has been some really rad bands posted here, like thice and AFI and Yellow Card, i love all those bands, but one my favourite bands is a band called Strung Out, i was expecting it to already be mentioned,but it hasnt. Any of you guys who are into punk should diffinatly try listening to Strung Out, they are one of a kind!!!!
