Indeed. He should know what bad post-punk sounds like before getting into the good stuff.

So much music I still gotta listen to xD.

Some great choices on that list

"Feel the Darkness" by Poison Idea is a top 5 all-time best Punk album. As is "Wrong" by NoMeansNo. Those 2 albums out of those bands listed are incredible.

Apart from Sick of It All, I like pretty much everything on that list.

SNFU is also my favorite band, but I do not know how well you will take to them. "...And No One Else Wanted to Play" is cool. Great start for them.

Listen to the album Youth of America by Wipers. The other bands can wait their turn.

I just listened to Wrong, by NoMeansNo.
I loved it! :3. It was very different from other bands I've listened to. As soon as I listened to the first song I knew the album was going to be awesome.
But uuhm..I listened to a bit(couldn't finnish it) of the first album ''mama'' which wasn't bad, but sounded nothing like the style on wrong and was kinda boring.
Sex Mad and the You Kill Me EP was what I listened to after(did finish those), better, but still not there.
Right Now I'm listening to Small Parts Isolated And Destroyed, still not the same style as wrong :c.
Is there no other album like wrong? :c.

I think "Wrong" is in a category all it's own. I like other NMN albums, but Wrong is the peak of their creativity in my opinion.

The "Live and Cuddly" live album from that era is worth it as well.

Saw these guys at my local club the other week, what do you think?

I don't know about that, but it has the best production. Pretty much has the best production I've ever heard. Everything is clear, precise, and the lyrics/vocals just have a certain timing to them. In fact, the vocals might be the best instrument on the album, and that says a lot.

I think almost every NMN album that I've heard has been damn good, although I haven't listened to a lot of their newest material.
