Asshole Parade

$5... 1996.. best thrash/"powerviolence" show I ever saw, and best show period for $5.


Listening - to punk/thrash/metal lately, The Promise - more of a hardcore /tough guy band, a la new version of SOIA.

 

[xxmagnusxx]

What's new out there? I've been listening to a lot of old school stuff...Iggy, Misfits, DRI, The Cramps, etc.

there isn't any new 'punk rock'. the format was exhausted decades ago and the movement was over around 1989 or 90.. anyone claiming to be a punk band now is essentially a cover band.

that being said i used to listen to a LOT of the following:

RKL, Govt. Issue, Misfits, Stooges, Bad Religion (suffer is possibly one of my favorite records of all time), TSOL, and of course, Black Flag. What I loved the most about those old records was the artwork. I'm talking vinyl: 7"s, etc. and the posters and fliers as well.

Refused is coming to Philly in a week or so...with a bunch of scenester metalcore bands so the tickets are like $30-40 (though most places sold out) and bought by a bunch of 12 year olds. They'll have no idea what they're seeing.
