as u can tell i have only just got into the punk-rock scene!

Green Day is my favorite band! I don't know if any of you consider them punk but I also like The Offspring.

btw, i don't consider green day punk......i dont consider the offspring punk either........over all i don't use the word punk much because the media twists its meaning......and the kids at school.......

yes, very good.

if you didnt notice it was sarcasm, and i layed it on pretty damn thick.

almost none of the bands anyone said were punk. so i thought id add to it.

id first like to say something. somebody mentioned earlier in this thread that they "dont know punk because i live in australia". to you, i would like to say....YOU ARE A ****ING IDIOT. i live in australia also. the radios and channel v and rage and that that bull**** dont know punk, they dont play punk. the vines, greenday, whitestripes, blink....all these bands get air time in aus. and they are attempting to portray themselves as a genre they have no idea about. the presenters think they know a bit about music. the guys on channel v do, but the radio guys are ****s. i hate the radio. if any of you guys visit aus, listen and youll see what i mean. iamalejo and david frost, to me while reading this thread, appear to be the only ones with a distinct knowledge on this topic. no offense to anybody else, but these guys do know what they are talking about, and everyband they have mentioned that iv known, i have at least liked, and if i didnt know them then id check them out. somebody was also bitching about the punk princesses. who gives a **** what these young girls wear and want to think? get over it. the punk movement is dead. what we are shown is the standardised musical "skills" and to-cool-to-care presona's of bands mentioned at the start of this thread, and a large number during it. i do not mean to offend the other contributors to this thread. a few good bands were mentioned. a few great bands were mentioned. the main thing that ****ted the **** out of me was that aussie chick saying that crap. punk is here. there is a very strong punk scene in every state. it is just not expressed to the masses via the demeaning popularised forums...such as commercial radio.

I like quite a few Millencolin songs (mystic Reptile, In a room, Nosepicker), I love NOFX, I also love Strung Out. Some other bands i like are Rancid, Lagwagon, SOME Rufio (xept the vocals which can get annoying at times).... I also like a lot of older bands like Anti-flag etc., it's just that most of the time, I wanna hear something fast, to get the blood pumping, u know, mosh pit action LOL. That's what i like about NOFX, If u buy a cd like say, White trash, two heebs and a bean, you get ska, fast punk, slower punk, like a song for every "mood". Just my opinion, or uhm, something.

covle · 08-01-2004, 06:34 AM

if you like fast music, then why are you listening to those bands? to be honest i had my stage of rufio and lagwagon, many years ago. but that was when double plaidnum was a new cd...aka, a long time ago.
if you like fast stuff then get into bands like thrice and atdi-relationship of command album. theres heaps more stuff out there. a lot of better stuff too, if you dont mind me saying

flamingfishbone · 08-01-2004, 06:38 AM

I don't mind, thnx for your reply.
Yeah i know there are faster bands and stuff, but i like Strung Out and Bigwig for example, because they take all the best parts of metal, and combine it with the best parts of punk (ok my opinion)hehe.. and i like the zeke song "evil dead", basically fast stuff with sick solos, but the thing is i prefer the way the bands i listed sing over the hardcore/speedmetal type of singing. Anyways, which other bands can u recommend to me?
