I've been out of it for a little while. Anyone got any decent punk bands to recommend me? Don't bother with any of the real big names, chances are i've already heard of 'em. The only stipulation is no "oi!" or anarchy shit. :(

You're looking for new 'punk'? what do you like already?

punk, punkish, something decidedly not metal. Already on the list: Groovie Ghoulies, AFI, Pennywise, dwarves, Zeke, Dropkick Murphys, Thought Riot (thanks Blackflag), Electric Frankenstein, Guttermouth, Gimme Gimmes, Rancid, New Bomb Turks, Beatsteaks, Bouncing Souls, Black Flag, Ramones, etc. Basically mainstream kinda stuff. :/ Gimme something new to listen to.

The only punk band I can think of is Anti-Flag right now :/ They're pretty good though

Nah, i don't care for anti-flag. Can't stand his voice. If anyone mentions the Misfits, Blanks 77, or the Casualties, i'm gonna fucking strangle them. >:

Nofx and the vadals are tried and true. at the drive in can be considered punk, im an fan of old offspring, dead kennedys, misfits, dead milkmen, some no use for a name, voodoo glow skulls, pennywise, . you might like sleater-kinney or taking back sunday too. they're pretty leany towards emo. and by that i mean they are. http://www.trashsurfin.de/ is a good place to look for what suits you...

Propagandhi. Honestly, you can't go wrong with any of their albums. Maybe even mid-90's Total Chaos. Their first two albums on Epitaph were fucking punk as all hell. SNFU. Guns 'n Wankers. Eh, what the fuck do I know? I'm an Epitaph/Fat Wreck Chords loser.

Some of my favorite bands are Quincy Punx, Blanks 77, Dayglo Abortions, Black Fork, The Criminals, The Casualties, The Exploited, DRI, Blatz, Filth, Crimpshrine, Riot/Clone, The Partisans and so on.
Ninjavenom
Feb 5th, 2003, 07:39 PM
I'll scope a few of those, also, though i'm not much a fan of anything much older than Black Flag. :/

Ha ha what an ungrateful ass! No thanks, no hey I'll check that out. You ask for suggestions and people oblige, and all you can do is tell them why their choices suck? Ha ha right on.

Well, yeah, i'm looking for things i haven't heard of.

Pennywise are very much metal.
All I can suggest is The Subhumans (UK). Really like them.

Groovy Ghoulies! I saw them! They were cool.
Anyway, everyone should listen to the Dickies.

Forgot to put them on the list. I love the ghoulies.

Thought Riot - Sound alot like AFI, but are better.
Hot Snakes - Rock n fucking roll
Against Me - Accoustic Political punk
Charles Bronson - punk/thrash
Black Flag

What about all the pre-90s punk bands? Many of them are so far unmentioned on this thread.
Jerry's Kids-Is this My World?
Agent Orange-Living In Darkness
Adolescents-ST
Minor Threat(of course)
Poison Idea
Gauze
GISM
Raw Power
Die Kreuzen
DI
Oh, fuck it. I could go on all day...that's a good list to start with. THAT'S some real punk for ya.
Rites of Spring were GREAT. First Emo band, before "Emo" became something totally different and inferior.
Black Flag
Apr 6th, 2003, 03:39 PM
Rites of Spring were not the first emo band.
Queefer Sutherland
Apr 6th, 2003, 09:08 PM
That's probably true, on a musical level. Who would you say was the first, or at least who predated them?
The thing about Emo is that it seemed to start out as a certain subgenre from HC on a musical level, but quickly just became a scene since not every punk band that was "emotional" was called emo. I think the ROS may have been the first to be CALLED emo, but of course that has little to do with the music. It's hard to say who were the first punk band to focus on the emotions expressed by ROS.
what's the earliest Emo you can think of?
Black Flag

Elvis Costello

Haha! That reply is funny because of the strange truth it has to it. On the other hand, it's hard for me to say whether he was punk or powerpop, and from what I know, Emo is the sadder end of hardcore specifically. Either way that's a damn good answer, and I wish it had at least crossed my mind(not to mention the fact that Elvis' voice has similarities to Guy's!.)

I know this is a semi old topic, but Ive noticed that nobody has mentioned Samhain, even tho they arent totally punk, but more of a metal/punk hybrid...

I just looked up the nifty brand of hardcore vocals and grind drumstyle of Yellow Machinegun. Sorry if they were already mentioned here, but i think this is band is pretty fuckin' nifty.

I did look up The Blasters a little while ago, and i even told Rongi about them. Good stuff. :)
Also looked up the Angry Samoans, and i like them a lot too. "Inside My Brain" is quite the nifty little ditty.
