Again, these threads seem to be filled with talk of Lady Gaga and bands in that vain. So, to spruce it up a bit, any Ramones fans? 3 Chord Punk heaven. [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QveJv7V4OZI[/YOUTUBE] [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3qcMjKxt-dE&feature=related[/YOUTUBE]
I'm not that familiar with the Dead Kennedy's actually. Misfits I love. I'm more into the first wave-NY Punk bands tho (Patti Smith Group/Television/Richard Hell/Blondie/etc).
Oddly enough, I don't have one. I enjoyed seeing them live more than listening to their records; and there aren't words to describe the Ramones live.
Not a huge fan of the Ramones but how about some old school garage punk flavor? [YOUTUBE]STay4wzcVdw[/YOUTUBE]
Old school? Why, you young whippersnappers don't know what old school garage sounds like.... ;-) [youtube]dOI06aLkz0Y[/youtube] 80s band from Australia....

Not that The Stooges aren't One Of The Greatest Bands In the History of Mankind, but I'd have to say they are more proto-punk, or punk itself, rather than 60s garage music. But maybe that's splitting hairs.... Anyway, I was thinking something more along the lines of: [youtube]gsLMuH82us0[/youtube] ---------- Post added 18th Jun 2011 at 01:38 PM ---------- I will, however, respond directly to your Stooges challenge: [youtube]iM6nasmkg7A[/youtube]
Touche... if we were talking protopunk then I would just go with [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJUpY5geWcU[/YOUTUBE] THE PINACLE OF PROTOPUNK-DOM
Sir, we are in complete agreement. And may I say how happy it makes me to see 16 year olds into this stuff....
I love all of this stuff, just about the only person my age I know who does though. I came into school wearing a VU and Nico banana t-shirt one day and nobody recognized it except my English teacher and a Girl in my philosophy class whose Dad owned the album.
Don't worry; it was basically that way when I was growing up in the 80s, too. "WTF do you have a banana on your t-shirt for???" was a common reaction....lol
