One of my favorite things to do at a concert is just to yell random stupid and/or offensive **** at the stage regardless if they can hear me. Even if the band doesn't hear it the people next to me do and they tend to laugh. I simply don't understand the concept of going to a concert just to hear a band play a song that you could easily just play all by yourself. Just have fun and yell **** or whatever.

One of the most disappointing concert experiences I've ever had was at an Iced Earth show, not because the band wasn't good, but because me and another dude decided we'd start a mosh pit all by ourselves and everyone around us aggressively wanted none of it. If you don't want that then fine I guess, but Jesus Christ none of the other people did anything but stand perfectly still. It's a metal show. You're stupid just for being there. You might as well give a brain dead thumbs up for other idiots who want to hurt each other for no good reason.

Even the guy at the merch stand I asked about it said that mosh pits could start depending on the crowd, and obviously our crowd was a bunch of boring mannequin ****s. I was in my early 20s btw just for reference.

I gotta admit, I’ve been at shows where nobody was moshing and thought to myself thank you god for letting this annoying tradition die.

Meh. When it's a metal show with an audience in their 20s and no one wants to mosh either the band is garbage or the audience is garbage. It's restricted to a small circle of people so who is being hurt?

Abled bodied young men aren’t the only people who like to metal out.

Once a pit breaks out in your section it’s operation relocation

I also hate the culture of might makes right

Metal bands should say chicks only first 20ft near the stage

And they should play on the stage not the ****ing floor

Just one more reason the US version of The Clash is superior to the UK version.

What d'ya mean US version The Clask v. UK better? :confused:

One part Iggy, one part Alice Cooper: :yikes:

There are two versions of The Clash's debut, both with wildly different tracklistings.

Nah the American version was more of a compilation album that chucked a bunch of tracks from the album and replaced them with non-album singles and ****ed with the track order as well. They're damn near two different albums.

UK version

1. Janie Jones
2. Remote Control
3. I'm So Bored With The U.S.A.
4. White Riot
5. Hate & War
6. What's My Name
7. Deny
8. London's Burning
9. Career Opportunities
10. Cheat
11. Protex Blue
12. Police & Thieves
13. 48 Hours
14. Garage Land


US version

1. Clash City Rockers
2. I'm So Bored With The U.S.A.
3. Remote Control
4. What's My Name
5. White Riot (single version)
6. White Man In Hammersmith Palais
7. Burning
8. I Fought The Law
9. Janie Jones
10. Career Opportunities
11. Complete Control
12. Hate & War
13. Police And Thieves
14. Jail Guitar Doors
15. Garage Land

The vocals are surprisingly clear and melodic for punk, especially considering how lo-fi the rest of it sounds. I don't consider this particularly hardcore, but it certainly is sad, unlike a lot of the high-energy political punk of the time. More stuff about rape, junkies, and zombies than bitching about Reagan.

Here is Gone by Goo Goo Dolls

Sick of It All is gonna end up being elph's fav punk band, you mark my words.

EDIT: I cant get this video to embed for some reason.

This band intrigues me.

There's a timestamp at the end. And ja they're pretty dope

I like it too

They’ve obviously been listening to the right stuff. Slint The Fall The Butthole Surfers performed by Parkland High School student look alikes

^wonderful

I'm seeing them in March. I couldn't resist.

They are pretty damn great!
Can't wait for an album release.
Apparently they have a live album with Damo Suzuki which kinda makes them cool but also kinda not, because Damo has been sucking for the last few decades.

TFW you were listening to the last track on an album and you didn't know it had several minutes of silence and then a hidden track so when you click on this video you're like why does this sound half like Nirvana and how are they making all that noise with so few instruments?

were you really not aware of one of Nirvana's best tracks before

Instrumental surf-punk?

Whatever it is, I'm digging it!

Pretty danceable early 80s post punk
Scars - Author! Author!

^yess!

Dope skramz

EDIT: except for the melodic bits

Timeless psychedelic punk from the Pacific Northwest...
