youth crew

[Evanw]

whats the most influential youth crew band and why

[tornpictures]

Youth of Today.
'Nuff said.

[young, loud and andrew]

Gorilla Biscuits-- no reason why.

har har har I'm so funny.

[shane italian]

Youth of Today or GB.

YoT restated that a positive outlook is all you need, GB reenforced it.

[Let's Chop Cats!]

I think those 2 would be the answer.

[CONNER_NWHC]

GB and chain of strenght

[shane italian]

GB and chain of strenght**** Chain Of Strength. Those guys talked so much about edge and they broke.

[young, loud and andrew]

CoS broke?? That's hilarious... didn't YoT break as well?


Even though I'm not edge, I find it funny when people who rep it really hard break it.

[shane italian]

Hell, Ian Mackaye is a ****ing smack addict now.

[A-Life-Less-Plagued]

Hell, Ian Mackaye is a ****ing smack addict now.
Joke?

[shane italian]

Joke?No joke. A club owner in Dallas whom I've spoken with a few times told me a story about when he snuck out of his house and hitched his way to see a Fugazi show and he said Ian was all cracked out and stuff along with being drunk.

[40 oz 2 freedom]

YoT is probably more important, but much more people listen to GB.

**** Chain Of Strength. Those guys talked so much about edge and they broke.
Wtf...They did? When?

[shane italian]

Wtf...They did? When?The singer and a couple others did. No idea when it happened, but now they like getting drunk and ****. I should goto Pamona, find them, and start playing True Till Death,

Gay ****. I still love the music though. I downloaded The One Thing That Still Holds True on your recomendation. Very awesome. Off topic, but I also bought Nothing to Hide on your recomendation. Thanks for that. It's amazing.

Nothing To Hide is a greeeeeeeat album.

[oopyman]

Nothing To Hide is a greeeeeeeat album.
Yeah. They're a greeeeeeeat band. Nothing to Hide is just overall better than Difference Between, but Difference Between has a few songs that really stand out.

[Jedi Jesus]

Bold ;)

[shane italian]

Bold ;)
:lol:

[Riot For Romance!]

Chain of Strength broke edge in the 80's, fellas. Not only that, but they claimed immediately afterwards that they never were an edge band to begin with and that people took "True Till Death" out of context.

[shane italian]

Are you sure about them breaking in the 80s? They just got done recording The One Thing That Still Holds True in the early 90s.

[Riot For Romance!]

Youth of Today wrote the song "Youth Crew", so it's obviously them. All of their lyrics were based off of the same positive-outlook themes.

Some other influential youth crew bands (both old and newer):

Hahaha, exactly my point. They broke edge before they even started touring for the record. In fact, that's why so many people are angry with them. It's the same thing with Carry On... They broke edge on tour and continued to play their edge songs to edge kids all the while going back to their van and drinking beer.

[shane italian]

Hahah, I don't think I would call xfilesx a youth crew band. Still an awesome band though.

[theburn]

Actually Ian Mackaye never did broke edge. Said so in person to many interviews over the years. People make **** up and tell everyone. Case closed.

And Carry On never broke edge. The singer of the band did. Corey, Todd, and Greg from Carry On never broke edge.

Good job on bringing back a year old thread.

Either way, what makes a band edge is usually the singer, being that they would have lyrics about edge and whatnot. If the singer breaks, then so does the bands image of being straight edge. A band isn't a person who can literally break edge, it's merely breaking the image they once had from using lyrics about it.

Although, Carry On still rules on record, so I don't care.

[TakeWarning]

Carry On still rule, but it's kind of hypocritical to say all that **** then reveal you have a cocaine addiction.

Whether or not they broke edge, ALLP is still in my top 5 favourite albums of all time.

[Times Ten]

Since when was xFilesx a youth crew band?

[Unban Me Says Cameo]

Isn't there a website to see where all the people are who broke edge?

[whiteminority]

That would be a website to behold.

[faith and fiction]

yeah it's on howsyouredge

[mikexmcdaniel]

Not anymore...they did away with the edge break list

[Times Ten]

That must have been recent cause I just saw it last week.
