The Stooges is not quite, but Funhouse would be in my top 5 if we're counting them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funhouse is still a fantastic record. Punk is a relatively loose term anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve always been a bit shy of seeing folks past their ‘prime’ - when I was about 18 loads of my mates went to see James Brown at Crathes Castle but I dingied it because I didn’t want to see an old James Brown; his best live shit was before my time and I’m ok with that. Bob Mould played a neighborhood street fest in Chicago a couple of years back so I figured I should go and he did a few Husker Du tracks and I didnt know seeing him do them was on my bucket list until he did. He’s still tight as utter f**k, 20 songs in the space of an hour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was trying not to slip into grindcore, as Discharge were the gateway into that genre and what little survives of pre-Scum Napalm Death's work was pure punk rock. I dunno if people would still class Napalm Death as punk, but the energy and politics are very much on-point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyAnchor Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 I was much more a singles punk but: 1. Inflammable material-SLF 2. The Incredible Shinking Dickies-Dickies 3. The feeding of the 5000-Crass 4. Fresh fruit for rotten vegetables-Dead Kennedys 5. How could hell be any worse-Bad Religion 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played with Chelsea a few times. Gene October is some boy. Their most recent stuff has been class actually. About 30 or so years ago I saw Chelsea play in Oscars in Dundee. Gene was stomping about taps aff with bondage breeks and army boots. The following afternoon I was having a pint in the Phoenix... in walks Gene, looking pretty dapper with a smart shirt tucked into dress trousers and a pair of brogues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergeant Wilson Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 I don't believe anyone actually likes Crass, they just think they should. I'm away to dredge through old archives to find bands who no-one has heard of to establish my muso credentials. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can still recite without Googling - "I walk around with a big Alsation He'll rearrange you without provocation And I'm the bugger who has got the lead So you'll have to bright if you want to come at me.

BFTD Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Securicor's a great name for a mental dog TBF. G4S, not so much. Presumably that's why they changed the name, and not because of their reputation for being fucking useless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbornbairn Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Crass had a great logo and a massive team of promotional artists spray painting it everywhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
