I listened to this around the time I heard that Dead Boys album and I didn't really hear any kind of progression. Not that I was really over the moon about RftT either mind you.

Yeah it does. Punk was a marketing term that described a specific scene. So if you weren't an English "punk" band then you weren't punk (not counting the subsequent few decades of three-chord wonders...

I listened to that album once and never had any desire to ever do so again. Just plain boring, generic boringness. David Thomas and Peter Laughner were right to cut the fat when they started Pere...

Maybe not bring down the government, but I'm sure they think they can accomplish something. Unfortunately most of these groups are only gonna inspire people who are either disenfranchised (either...

If you think that you're gonna change something if you write a protest song then you're naive. You'd be better served to become politically engaged and actually do something rather than just write a...

So in other words Crass' music changed nothing. Some tape that happened to be compiled by a member of Crass did. Like I said, I can respect Crass for actually living up to their ideals, but using...

They're just not self consciously revealing. I see the Clash as dressing up their youthful anger and frustration as something noble rather than just the generic youthful anger and frustration that it...

The Sex Pistols' delightfully juvenile, misanthropic lyrics aren't as good as The Clash's "Look at me, look at me, aren't I just the most self righteous wannabe revolutionary in the whole entire...

Meh. It just feels more like a pop album than a punk album to me. I don't listen to it when I'm feeling in a punk mood, I listen to it when I'm in a pop mood.

Agreed. It's certainly not a million miles away from punk, but I think of it as a pop album first and foremost.

Television and the Ramones started out at the same time, in the same place, playing in the SAME CLUB. Why on earth should you need to call one punk and one proto-punk?


You're right, it's a media...

Honestly I do listen to them all in the same sort of way as I listen to the Sex Pistols or the Clash, but I just mean that Television were integral to the founding of a legitimate punk scene, so I...

They may not be punk in the strict genre sense of the term, but they were one of the founding bands of the New York CBGB's scene, so if they can't be considered punk then I quit.

I feel weird about London Calling. One the one hand, it's a great pop record with memorable songs that stick in your head for years, and a solid 8/10 (sorry, but the second half of the second disc is...

I love Bollocks, even if it's a bit overproduced. Johhny Rotten is just one of the most charismatic and unique frontmen of all time. Easily my fav punk vocalist.
