Give Me A Band
 

Hey Punkerz .. Getting straight to the point.. I play Punk stuff, from general to every subculture... any instrument.. got my own studio.. but I need some knowledge from you guys..

The thing is.. I love punk. the lifestyle.. the music.. but lately its been so monotonous.. saaame shiiiiiiit... all these bands... and I realised that in rock.. ppl just seem to notice metalheads as the best musicians technically.. as in speed and skill in playing instruments..

But Im sure there has to be at least one GREAT punk band out there.. one that'll just thrash all when it comes to musical ingenuality... one where every toher band seems to have failed in cloning or copying coz theyr juz so **** good...underground or popular.. THE BEST.. musically.. if not technically (eg. fast playing, leads, crazy bass drives, hectic drumming).. some depth in their songwriting..

I'm just looking for the different now.. I want to hear the punk equivalent to the best musicians of every genre. I know some of u guys are pretty cold and will just tell me to F*** OFF.. but I just need this one help from you guys.. and it's much appreciated.. thanks

against me!
and if you wanna call these punk
sonic youth
unwritten law

Streetlight Manifesto is the only band that matters.

Streetlight has some crazzy horns.

and some crazy drums, and some crazy bass and possibly the craziest guitar (in ska anyway). The only thing is toms not a great singer, fast and lotsa fun to listen to but not very... good as far as 'actual singing talent' goes.

Operation ivy?, this threads going to get big...

learn some audio karate while your at it

good stuff....really good.. check out Jesus is alive and well in mexico

subhumans or leftover crack but they sounds to close to choking victim
minor threat

Bad Brains

Dead Kennedys
Refused
Leftover Crack/Choking Victim
Against Me!
Blood Brothers
Bandits of the Acoustic Revolution

And...

INNER TERRESTRIALS!

BOTAR are just a copy of streetlight but acoustically... i prefer SM.

Streetlight manifesto is rad, but he asked for punk.

Um Ive obly heard this sone by Death By Stereo, but download " I wouldnt piss in your ear if your brain was on fire"

Rad song.

Um Against All Authority has some good songs, American Nightmare, The Nerve Agents have a couple good songs like "Todays Rebelion, Tomorrows Freedom"

And The Code is great, but I got tired of them pretty fast, "In Hope" and " Our Safety" are cool songs.

Oh and I still havent got sick of Raised Fist. I love all thier songs.

minutemen

Circle takes the sqaure
The distillers(Brody is HOTTT!!)
Refused
