Bottom 8 Punk Bands Final Results!!!
[b]-8. The Casualties[/b]
The Casualties know what punk is about. Spiking your hair, shouting "Oi!" a lot and preaching anarchy without having any concept of what it means. Featuring wildly generic music, lyrics that are so bad they're impossible to parody and vocals that are just plain sh[i][u][/i][/u]it. The Casualties are for ANARKEE! The Casualties are for NONKONFORMITEE!! All you need to be a Casualties fan is ripped bondage trousers, impeccably spiked hair and an expensive leather jacket with The Casualties logo across the back. Now if that isn't diversity I don't know what is. Everyone stand back and salute The Casualties, the true face of punk rock idiocy. [b]-7. GG Allin[/b] So you're a non-descript generic punk frontman whose only claim to fame is excessively puerile and offensive lyrics ("Expose yourself to Kids") and band names like (The Scumf[u][i][/u][/i]ucks). So what? You need a gimmick, you need to get noticed and if you're GG Allin this means being a sh[i][b][/i][/b]it-eating self-mutilating rapist exhibitionist. His live show was one of the few places that would leave you both pissed off and pissed on. Plumbing the depths of depravity, degradation and defecation in the name of keeping it "underground" GG Allin was the only person stupider than his fans. [b]-6. Anti-Flag[/b] If there's one thing Anti-Flag know it's that politics sells. Well, that's if you can call taking a concept that is generally acknowledged as a bad idea (police brutality, racism etc) and inserting the word "Fu[i][u][/i][/u]ck" in front of it politics. With their whiny vocals, stupidly sloganeering lyrics and boring music Anti-Flag fight the power harder than Malcolm X and Martin Luther King combined. Coming from that most oppressed of social groups, middle-class white guys, there are three things that Anti-Flag hate more than anything else: corporations, war, and the government. They are also on a major record label owned by a multi-national corporation that profits from war due to it's links with the government. [b]-5. Pennywise[/b] Pennywise defy convention. Convention states that you can't have a successful recording career releasing the same album filled with boring, repetitive music over and over again but convention obviously hasn't heard of the idiots that make up Pennywise's fanbase. By combining generic riffs and vocals with such vaguely rebellious mindless statements as "F[u][i][/u][/i]uck authority" have transformed themselves in the mind of 14 year old suburban white kids as the punkest thing since unsliced bread. Though their albums can be found in the homes of most punk fan seeking a cure for insomnia (although continued doses can be coma-inducing) their fans can quickly be eliminated if told that "A leading medical authority has described drinking paint as "a bad idea." F[u][i][/u][/i]UCK AUTHORITY KIDS! GO DRINK THAT PAINT! [b]-4. Rancid[/b] Someone should tell Rancid that it's no longer the 1970s. And that they don't live in England. And that their band isn't called The Clash. With a bassist prone to the sort of over-indulgent solos punk was supposed to eliminate and a front man who's only job is to play one chord, spin round in a circle and then groan unintelligibly into the microphone about about his childhood viewed through rose-tinted glasses. Seriously, when have anecdotes about people's childhood friends ever been entertaining? Rancid is a band in which all of it's members have been in better bands but come together in a wonderful display of mediocrity. [b]-3. Sex Pistols[/b] The Sex Pistols are often revered as the greatest punk band ever. Well if making crap music, having a murdering idiot junkie as a bass player and putting your 'shocking' image ahead of your music are measures of greatest then they are. The Sex Pistols are to blame for every idiot punk band talking about 'anarchy' and 'the antichrist' just because they sound cool. They're too blame for every idiot punk wearing stupid shirts for shock value. In the few years before they imploded with the bitterness and spite that comes with being a bucnh of crap musicians who make it big due to having an extremely smart, manipulative manager they put forward the idea of punk as talentless, undeducated music that still lingers today. [b]-2. Germs[/b] Here's a tip for any budding punk bands: make awful music, play terribly live and then have your idiot lead singer die young so everyone will think his lyrics are "deep" in some way. The Germs were a very average punk band that has been elevated to the realms of greatness because they're singer was a stupid junkie who OD'd by whining Sid Vicious idolising, death-worshipping morbidly obsessed stupid 14 year olds like Fat Mike. [b]-1. CRASS[/b] CRASS were supposed to be about the lyrics so why didn't they just publish them as porms. I'd rather read their lyrics than listen to their incomprehensible singer trying and failing to drown out the tuneless racket that his musically inept band made with his hoarse shouting. It's hardly the best way to get your point across. If a band can make a fake recording that can fool the CIA why can't they record an album that you can actually listen to without thinking someone's held a microphone up to a bunch of fighting animals and put it on an album?

Casualties is the worst in my opinion, the only band I like out of those one is Rancid. I still respect Pennywise because they got me into punk.
