SlothcoreSam 03.22.20	It's gonna be a fun listen. But going to be hard to pick a winner.
budgie 03.22.20	UK Subs gonna be the winner!
dedex 03.22.20	shit Ghandhi took all my recs Black Flag - Nervous Breakfown The Stooges - Fun House
parksungjoon 03.22.20	i didnt read all that crap but do you want some hard recz ov trvth and jvstice?
wham49 03.22.20	Ya I guess others I would have suggested are already taken like, the stooges, Death, black flag, dead boys So, I guess I’ll stick with the Buzzcocks studio album which many of the songs are from /A different kind of tension, will not have the power or intensity of the live album but
SandwichBubble 03.22.20	I was only in this to get Sods another rating and it immediately got one right when it was added to this list. I've done what I set out to do.
SlothcoreSam 03.22.20	As we are getting so many classics, all albums with less than 25 ratings on Sputnik will now receive a 0.5 bonus. @ Sandwich, lol.
parksungjoon 03.22.20	sam please answer my question sir
SlothcoreSam 03.22.20	Yo PSJ, rec whateva the fuck you want, but has to be released in the decade of the 70s, anything on the punk spectrum. If you win, you get to name my user ratings name for a year.
parksungjoon 03.22.20	going off of stuff i dont see on the list black flag - nervous breakdown (easily their best release, dont @ me) buzzcocks - another music in a different kitchen cock sparrer - cock sparrer new york dolls - s/t (more proto) sham 69 - that's life the stooges - fun house (more proto) but if post-punk is allowed then so is proto right, seems onyl fair
parksungjoon 03.22.20	anyway im not about winning or any of that, just tryna give peepz some hard jamz inc. if u know what i mean
SlothcoreSam 03.22.20	So PSJ, you can only pick 3. and black flag, buzzcocks, and stooges have been taken, so i will go with your other 3
parksungjoon 03.22.20	sweet dude, hope u dig! punk on brotha
SlothcoreSam 03.22.20	Here is the Spotify playlist for the albums that are on there. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/618zvcX9QT64oHSgJplgJG?si=oZMPSzELRdiqErYeD_nJwg
Viriathus 03.22.20	Magazine - Real Life Chrome - Half Lip Machine Moves The Fall - Live at the Witch Trial
SlothcoreSam 03.22.20	Thanks DBA, Chrome is some noisy bliss.
widowslaugh123 03.22.20	Not sure if it’s been asked but do eps and/or comps count?
SlothcoreSam 03.22.20	Yeah, they count, as long as i can find them to listen to. Put a link down for obscure stuff.
widowslaugh123 03.22.20	Generation x- valley of the dolls 6 votes Surprised. Thought this band was more popular. The cramps-gravest hits 16 votes Kinda cheating since it’s a comp but oh well. Public image Ltd.-metal box Not necessarily punk but it’s got Johnny fucking rotten and it’s the best album of all time. Also didn’t see it in your ratings so whatever.
budgie 03.22.20	so when does the listening begin? this is gonna be another list that's goes to 20% then gets forgotten huh can't say i'm not guilty of that myself
SlothcoreSam 03.22.20	Already started listening my feathered friend. Going to spin each album at least thrice. Scores, and comments will follow soon.
parksungjoon 03.22.20	thrice eww but good luck in your journey brother are you gonna do an 80s punk and hardcore list too?
SlothcoreSam 03.22.20	Maybe down the track PSG, especially if we gonna be in isolation for the foreseeable future.
Minushuman24 03.22.20	gen X has only 8 ratings, that's really weird. And damn, 3 spins in a row? I barely manage two on records I like lol
budgie 03.22.20	i could listen to circle jerks group sex like 20x over but then again it's only like 12 minutes long
Minushuman24 03.23.20	Best album on here tho is Horses.... or Inflammable Material... Hm
widowslaugh123 03.23.20	I got to this too late and a bunch of good ones already got took
Uzumaki 03.23.20	@Minus yes Horses is best album.
SlothcoreSam 03.23.20	I'm not going to spin 3 times in a row. 3 times all up.
SlothcoreSam 03.23.20	That U.K. Subs album is sooooo good. Early contender right there from first listens.
budgie 03.23.20	my maaaaan. happy to see it get the love it deserves
SlothcoreSam 03.23.20	Why does it have so few ratings Budgie?
budgie 03.23.20	i ask myself that question often... who knows! such a classic
parksungjoon 03.23.20	the thing about hardcore that's really cool when you're getting into it but less cool when once you come to love it is that so many releases are very short also im surprised no one said static age
NorthernSkylark 03.23.20	The Pop Group - Y Joy Division - Unknown Pleasures The Raincoats - The Raincoats
Viriathus 03.23.20	"also im surprised no one said static age" Would Static Age even count? Sure it was recorded in the 70s but it never got any release until the 90s.
Uzumaki 03.23.20	Well, he included my rec of Death, so theoretically it should count.
SlothcoreSam 03.23.20	Yeah, I'm being pretty lenient, so if it was recorded in the 70s, I'll include it. Got a full 8 hours of isolated work ahead of me today, so that means 8 hours of listening to 70s punk.
Atari 03.23.20	list just reminds me how ignorant I am of punk from this decade. I'll have to check a few of these!
parksungjoon 03.23.20	atari hmu if early 80s is ok
Minushuman24 03.23.20	UK Subs fuckin rule, AGREED
Sniff 03.23.20	Ebba Grön - We're Only In it for the Drugs Rävjunk - Uppsala Stadshotell Brinner The Kids - The Kids
WeepingBanana 03.23.20	Swell Maps - Jane from Occupied Europe
WeepingBanana 03.23.20	Whoops that was 1980, do the other one I guess
SlothcoreSam 03.24.20	Going to give Sniff's rec, Rävjunk - Uppsala Stadshotell Brinner from 1977 a bonus 1.0, as it has to ratings yet on Sput. Any one else got 70s punk recs? Write ups and scores on the way.
WeepingBanana 03.24.20	I guess I'll also add Middle Class - Out of Vogue (~5 min 7") Simply Saucer - Cyborg Revisited (released in 89, recorded in 74/75)
SandwichBubble 03.24.20	Heads up, 23 was released in 1978, not 1977. And I asked for a merge for the two pages so it'll be 5 total votes on one release soon.
Sniff 03.24.20	gonna need that +1 for rävjunk
WeepingBanana 03.24.20	I've already added 3 but if I could also just say The Dils are absolutely essential early American punk
Minushuman24 03.24.20	This is turning out to be an incredible playlist. I need to check some of these weird ones I've never heard of
SlothcoreSam 03.24.20	Thanks Sandwich. @weepingBanana I'll add your first 3 for the competition, and the other as a bonus. Thanks
BlindHouse 03.24.20	Richard Hell and the Voidoids - Blank Generation (1977)
ResidentNihilist 03.24.20	needs more crunkcore
SandwichBubble 03.24.20	Here's the new entry for 23: https://www.sputnikmusic.com/soundoff.php?albumid=100829 Not sure why they deleted the one you have on the list, but whatever. Edit: nevermind
Minushuman24 03.24.20	It's insane that no one thought of Richard Hell before
SandwichBubble 03.24.20	I limited myself to one album under 10 votes Had to give everyone else a chance, right? 😎
SlothcoreSam 03.24.20	After listening to each album, there is a very good chance there will be a tie, meaning a second round of early 80s punk to determine the winner.
budgie 03.24.20	ooh this is exciting
dedex 03.24.20	Love the dedication, Sam
ArsMoriendi 03.24.20	I'm anticipating Sloth's opinions hardcore
Minushuman24 03.24.20	I am too, Sloth's got the taste closest to mine on this website probably
botulist 03.24.20	Death - for the whole world to see The Fall - Live at the Witch Trials Pere Ubu - Dub Housing
SlothcoreSam 03.24.20	Hey botulist, both Death and The Fall have been taken, but I'll add the Pere Ubu
botulist 03.24.20	Then add The Slits- Cut and Iggy Pop - Lust for Life please
SlothcoreSam 03.25.20	Kk, will do, great choices by the way.
Sinternet 03.25.20	the modern lovers - s/t
notagenius 03.25.20	here is my entry: Ian Dury and the Blockheads - New Boots and Panties!! Year: 1977 Sput Average: 4.1 27 Votes
Sinternet 03.25.20	the stranglers - stranglers iv 999 - seperates
Minushuman24 03.25.20	The slits is such a good shout
SlothcoreSam 03.25.20	@ Sinternet Stranglers iv, was released in 1980, did you want to go with another Stranglers album?
TabulaRasa6 03.25.20	Since you don't have it up yet, Misfits - Static Age. If post-punk counts, then Bauhaus - Bela Lugosi's Dead. All my other recs are taken. I'd have more to rec if it were 80s. =P
botulist 03.25.20	someone needs to throw x-ray spex in there. classic album.
widowslaugh123 03.25.20	There’s still hella out there you guys need to keep recing
SlothcoreSam 03.25.20	Suicide and Television are up.
SlothcoreSam 03.25.20	Politicians in my eyes, by Death, could be the best song I've heard in years. https://open.spotify.com/track/5REpTIk9GXnUKnt6wdRLQ8?si=CnxHzOZBT4yyN8cUvFELBw
Sinternet 03.25.20	its not 1980 its 1977
Minushuman24 03.25.20	Hell yea, hard agree on suicide and television
SlothcoreSam 03.25.20	@ Sinternet, oh i see the confusion, sorry, IV is also called Rattus Norvegicus. But there was a US only release called IV in 1980, but it is completely different.
SlothcoreSam 03.25.20	Death, Black Flag, Machine Gun Etiquette, The Stooges, Devo, up.
budgie 03.25.20	awesooome i love this list
widowslaugh123 03.25.20	Hope Richard hell wins
SlothcoreSam 03.25.20	Talking Heads, Richard Hell, The Raincoats up. 11/53 complete. So far we have a 4 way tie all on 9.5/10, with Death, Black Flag, Television and The Stooges. 3 on 9/10 with Richard Hell, Magazine and The Damned.
botulist 03.25.20	richard hell for the win [2]. a classic like no other, and the album that shaped first wave punk.
SlothcoreSam 03.25.20	Agree that Richard Hell's album is great, but I have 4 albums that are better so far.
Pheromone 03.25.20	Iggy Pop the idiot please sir
Uzumaki 03.25.20	Yes. Glad you liked that album.
SlothcoreSam 03.25.20	Thanks Uzumaki That Death album is fantastic
widowslaugh123 03.26.20	Update when
budgie 03.26.20	anyone have any booze
wham49 03.26.20	Hard to not put Death at the top of the list, I heard politicians on a magazine comp, found the album, and have been pushing it since, although I neglected to rec it
GhandhiLion 03.26.20	^Did you make an account to rec that? That's pretty cool.
SlothcoreSam 03.26.20	Will post the next 10 tonight. I'm lucky I'm still working.
SlothcoreSam 03.26.20	19/61 up, and we have an 8 way tie, all with 9.5/10
wham49 03.26.20	plenty of 9.5's hoewever no ten. If Wire and Death did not get the nod, not sure which one could be the first 10
ArsMoriendi 03.27.20	Glad you liked all of 'em Sloth :)
GhandhiLion 03.27.20	I fucked up with the theads. At least Marquee Moon was a winner. That one is hard not to love.
notagenius 03.28.20	lol sloth rated 7,5 to my pick and left no comment. sorry man, got you listening to an offensive one with vulgar words. it is alright I will rate the same also will be speechless. lol but it was really distinctive, impressed not in the least bit hypocritical. I hope you don't mind.
SlothcoreSam 03.28.20	Haha, i will be writing a blurb for all of them. Been a busy week working at the hospital.
SlothcoreSam 03.28.20	Link to The Adicts- Lunch with The Adicts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bQGk7nyC3qI The first track, Easy Way Out, is so fucking good.
madrigal30 03.28.20	bruh, i can only talk about '80s punk at least these r good recs
botb 03.28.20	The early 80s were far superior imo but still some great stuff here. Dead Kennedy’s released some demos in the late 70s as well I think.
budgie 03.28.20	SOO I TOOK THEE EASY WAYY OOUUUUT
SlothcoreSam 03.28.20	budgie, your rec, U.K Subs is in the lead with The Dickies
budgie 03.28.20	i saw! i have to check the dickies, if they're 100x better than the ramones, i can't even imagine definitely going to check all of this list eventually
SlothcoreSam 03.28.20	30/55 completed. U.K. Subs and The Dickies both leading.
rockarollacola 03.29.20	Glad you're digging that Dickies record, easily one of my favorites.
Minushuman24 03.29.20	hell yea dickies, ya gotta check the incredible shrinking dickies
WeepingBanana 03.29.20	8.5 for the swell maps album seems about right, glad you liked it. Fwiw I think their 2nd is better, that I originally rec'd
WeepingBanana 03.29.20	Swell Maps are like imagine The Fall, but better, and like 1/100th the catalog size. And I love The Fall
Ashen 03.29.20	good coverage on this list. here's a few: nervous eaters - just head the electric eels - god says fuck you the urinals - s/t 7", another ep the specials - specials the skids - scared to dance
Ashen 03.29.20	heyo there's a rules section... but in the spirit of punk i consider them optional:)
SlothcoreSam 03.29.20	lol, it wouldn't be punk if we were following rules. I'll add all of them. Anyone else who has rec'd already can add others, just won't be in running to win.
widowslaugh123 04.03.20	I vote live at the witch trials next
SandwichBubble 04.03.20	So your punk slice of pie chart went from 33% in December 2019 to 34% just a few months later, Sloth. Wonder if we helped with that.

Sniff 04.06.20	Happy you liked Ebba Grön. It's a staple for basically everyone over here

Minushuman24 04.06.20	I made it to second place, I'll take it.
neekafat 04.06.20	Wow you really like punk
ArsMoriendi 04.06.20	So we get to rec more stuff to break the tie, or just the 4 winners?
SlothcoreSam 04.06.20	Everyone gets to rec early 80s punk. The 4 winners will carry over a perfect score, so they have an advantage, but it is still close. See the new thread just put up.
ArsMoriendi 04.06.20	Early is 80-82? or? Also how many albums this time?
SlothcoreSam 04.06.20	https://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?memberid=1137253&listid=191310 80-85, and 3 albums again.
GhandhiLion 04.08.20	There are cow bells on 'y'?
SlothcoreSam 04.08.20	Hey Ghandhi, they sound like cow bells, listen to the first track. My headphones amplified them, that's why it stood out.
GhandhiLion 04.08.20	'Thief of Fire' or 'she is beyond good and evil'? edit: oh ye on 'she is beyond..'
