I used to get upset about not knowing details about obscure bands like lots of my friends, but then I decided just to go with the bands/songs I liked and not care if they were obscure or not. For most of my friends, The Dead Milkmen are pretty everyday meh (compared to, say, Turbonegro or Two Word Culture), but I stopped caring weather they thought I was "mainstream" or not long ago. After all, we are who we are, and whatever that means is in the eye of very different beholders! Now, to get back to the topic at hand... I HIGHLY reccomend asking a friend to burn / sinc a playlist for you of their favorite bands/songs.  It's a GREAT way to learn new music! Wanna burn some Punk for me?? it would ALL ( well...almost all ) be new to me....lmao SURE! PM me your address. And Dan? You have bathed in acid?

Since we have a few punk afficianados here. Do y'all consider The Velvet Underground to be punk. I think that they were really ahead of thier time, but the only thing that ever sounded punk was "Just Like Sister Ray said"

If you get arrested, or even a speeding ticket, compliment the officer on what a great job they're doing for society. Not only will it possibly keep you from spending a night in jail, but it will also be included in the police report, and when the judge sees this at your trial, he'll definetly be more leniant with you. When I was younger, I really had a hot temper, and would give the cops an earful. This never helped my case once. on this recomandation i will recomend NOT telling a cop that your hand is broken when being hand cuffed, then hitting him unconsious with that hand

Like The Ramones. Don't really SOUND that punk, but they are quintessentially so. |

What do you think makes a band punk, other than what the record stores classify them as. Don't get me wrong, I know punk when I hear it, but are thier some accepted definitions used to classify it?

What do you think makes a band punk, other than what the record stores classify them as. Don't get me wrong, I know punk when I hear it, but are thier some accepted definitions used to classify it? Unlike most genres, punk isn't defined by the musical style as much as by the lyrics and meaning behind it. There are two things that make a punk band punk. The first, and least important, is it's musical style cannot be classified in any other way. This is why many punk bands sound NOTHING alike (listen to Blue Oyster Cult and Flogging Molly back to back for an example of that). However, this does not always define a punk band. After all, Nirvana is not punk, but alternative, and MANY alternative bands have very different musical styles as well. The BIGGEST thing that defines punk is their lyrics. A punk band is defined by its anarchist, anti-societal, rage against the machine, protesting lyrics. Of course, not all punk songs contain these messages, but a punk BAND is defined by the majority of its songs in this way. Good example of this is Greenday. Many people don't realize they are punk because they're mainstream, which is normally an oxi-moron. However, if you listen to their lyrics, they're VERY punk.

At the risk of sounding uncultered The lead singer of Greenday( I don't know his name) was being interveiwed on Mtv several years back and his music was refernced as punk, at which point he grew very angry and said "Look, I live in a mansion with a swimming pool. Nobody that lives in a mansion with a swimming pool could ever call themself a punk." I think this was one of the coolest things I had ever heard. |

This has been a very cool conversation, and while I hate to end it, I promised my Dad I'd have dinner with him tonight. I'll check in with y'all later to see what I missed.
