also The Hanson Brothers (which is literally all of NoMeansNo with a different lead singer and more conventional punk rock)

While Alice Donut wasn't really the sound I was after, I will definitely be looking up some stuff by them because that song you posted was pretty good.

As far as The Hanson Brothers are concerned, I've been aware of them since I found NoMeansNo, but their music just doesn't grab me in the same way. I was never really too big into the Ramones and their influence on The Hanson Brothers is pretty significant. Also their music is a little too Canadian for me. While I'm proud to be a Canadian, I don't really need that to ring out in my music.

I appreciate the prompt response though and will definitely look up some Alice Donut.

Definitely more along the lines of what I was looking for musically, but I'm not sold on the vocalist. Sorry for sounding a little fussy but hardcore punk vocals never really did anything for me, and this is no exception. Still I might look up one of their CD's based on the melody alone. Thanks
