there seems to be a bit of a punk following around TS.. where are you cats hiding? who are you into? what gigs do you go to?

lets network ;) heh.


oh, I'd not like this to turn into a flame war, if you dont like the shit, I dont care :)

[Fluteloop]

pUnk Is all good, I was thinking about attending events too

but im lost...

[Slurm]

I have a mohawk.

Used to be right into punk, but dont know who the movers and shakers are worldwide or locally anymore.

[heist]

aye, I hadn't seen anyone locally for a while..

the Ha Ha's were damned good... they opened for regurgitator on saturday.

can you be a punk and a raver at the same time? methinks both cliques will disown ya ;)

[nVs]

i remeber playing a gig (djn) lookn like liam galagher

i was a huge brit pop fan aswell bein a HARDCORE dj!

[FatBassLines]

punk is pants!

[dman]

best punk bands in perth if your definition of punk is fairly broad..

.gyroscope and last years hero....

they both put on great live shows... not sure if they put themselves in the "punk" genre but never the less the ones to watch....

[RandomLogik]

nvs in relation to your question, of course you can !

a certain dnb dj was also in a punk band ;)

as for me, i don't get that into it, i went to the vans warped tour to see pennywise (which i know isn't punk)
i like the sex pistols

[nVs]

not my question!!!
u gotz it all wrong

[heist]

my question, but all groovy.. ;)

sex pistols are the staples i guess... small catalogue, heh.. damned good nonetheless..

if any of y'all like catchy rocky stuff, try some NOFX

Drugs are Good, or Louise.

mp3 that shii'at :)

My boyfriend was fully into Punk when I first met him. Some of the stuff he's got is scary. One of the bands sound like the devil singing but they are actually saying good things about saving the environment etc.

[SABRE`]

i used to listen to a little bit of punk bands like NOFX, Pennywise, Millencollin. Only bands ive seen live are Toe to Toe and 28 days (b4 they were on video hits)

heist = superheist??? ugh..

punk is good...

don't go to gigs anymore, don't like much of the pop punk stuff. some of its orrite. i dont mind a bit of 98 mute, NUFAN, anti-flag, jugheads revenge, H2O etc.

more just like classic punk, so you're not exactly going to hear that in perth!! (though i hear buzzcocks are coming, or have they already come?? never liked them anyway, but guess they were good for their time).

so yeh, fav bands would have to be.. angelic upstarts, sex pistols, bad religion, cockney ejects, misfits, adolescents, descendents, agent orange, circle jerks, social distortion, TSOL, dead kennedys etc...

[bruce]

the sex pistols were not punk
they were sellouts

minor threat were punk
gg allin was a punk

other more relevant local punk bands who I rate and have rated highly over the years, emo hardcore pop or otherwise

ballpoint (now last years hero)
pc thug
boredumb
love camp 7
the white trash
the rats
the pimps
kerb
pc thug
20 eyes or 3 days later as they are now known
no wonder
the crippled children (r.i.p stewie)
brown demon
rupture
negative reply
and others



the perth punk scene has gone up and down over the years, nowdays it resembles a teenage frat party
most people involved in it are living together or going out with each other, but shit goes in cycles I guess
in 1998 we had 350 crew at local shows
now theres 30
i dont pay much attention anymore

anyway and here is a special treat mp3 of my band 'billings method' with a song called 'james' that we recorded in about 1998 or some shit, i was the drummer in this band.
its about a guy who used to hang out at 'the fratshed' as we called it. he was pretty annoying.

billings method - james (http://www.iinet.net.au/~elhornet/Billings-Method-James.mp3)

and yes you can be a punkrock raver heist, heaps of the punk crew dig dnb
maybe my fault, I used to bring decks and dj between bands sometimes

unless you're refferring to getting back together now to make a buck.

[bruce]

they were skinny white kids marketed as rebellious punks
when in reality, they were a record company product
total shit

[SyntheticPleasure]

i was a punk when i was 15/16 - then i grew up. Now im into happy hardcore. LOL

seriously though i was one of few 'old skool' girl punks. I loved all the old skool punk bands like NOFX, Rancid, sex pistols, the clash, op ivy, unwritten law, good riddance, propagandhi, lagwagon etc

I went to a rancid gig when i was in year 11 and i got brett's drumstick:) I still have it sitting in my room and it has all the marks from when he hit it on the edge of the drums and stuff. :inlove:

when i was walking home from the gig this guy said he would beat me up for it and i just said " no way mate this is MINE!" and i ran like the clappers.

ahhh good times.

umm...no i dont think so. As i have much respekt for you i dont want to be getting all nasty and stuff but i think u are wrong.

sex pistols were one of the pioneers of the punk rock seen, unlike bands like 'blink 182' for example that are very much a product of their record company, and act stupid to attract stupid teenagers.

[bruce]

actually blink 182 were shitheads before they got cool
I have a split 7" of them vs The Iconocolats, and alot of their stuff from way before Cheshire Cat came out

its much the same and probably more obnoxious than their stuff now, they just get paid more to be annoying

their new shit is so lame though, its radio pop now :|


I personally was never a fan of the sex pistols and never gave them much credit for doing anything other than trying to piss off the media
oh well, thats just me. i had my idols and sid wasnt one of them :)

[ABCD2]

umm.. you're just trying to be provocative aren't you?
cuz i'm sure ur not that stupid, or know that little about the pistols career.

[bruce]

yeah I'm just stirring
dont get angry :P

[bruce]

I should probably add some more to that

sex pistols only really existed for all of 2 years, and they were marketed from the beginning as a POPULAR band, with their music being aimed at a commercial/mainstream market
johnny rotten was the one who was all into angsty shit and singing about things that would piss people off

I mean really, their first release ever was on a major, and every subsequent release from that point onwards was on a major
we aint talking about an underground band of any sort, they were all about pissing people off on a global scale, and those kinda bands usually do alright

[Rhabdomyolisis]

ah man wot shit, thought this was about the ferry corsten track :)

major labels = malcolm mclaren, the band had no imput. hell, even signing huge record deals johnny rotten was still catching the subway without a dime in his pocket...

ok i get your point of view... but they got kicked off those major labels? i think the reason they got attention were because they were punks, the first of their kind then. this was what gave them the attention, not the marketing... people just took notice.

I do get what you mean though, cuz in a way it destroyed punk as well, but i dont think i'd go as far as to call them non-punk.
(though steve, paul, glen at the start and malcolm all wanted to be on top of the pops. sid + johny were the only real punks i spose.... doesnt make the sex pistols non-punk though..)

[Holden Caulfield]

sex pistols- what a bunch of sellouts

[Who Are Ya]

yeh i used to like bands like nofx , afi but guttermouth were my favourite band
.

still dont mind them , i like the song by them on tony hawks three .....its good when your playing king of the hill .

Recently got into some early US punk after reading Legs McNeil's "Please Kill Me". Try Richard Hell & the Voidoids' "Blank Generation" album, it's pretty good (around 1977 I think). Has one corker of a track, "Love Comes in Spurts". Maybe that was a bit of a blueprint for the brattier end of punk today, I don't know, but Richard Hell sure sounds like ihe's totally neurotic, f***ed up and annoying.

Classic jacket photo of the band too. Like they weren't sure what they were, punk or new wave or teddy boys or accountants or what. Complete misfits.

Tom Withers who was drummer/vocalist for the awesome UK skatecore band The Stupids now records drum'nbass under the name 'Klute'.

Not into Oi! much or US pop punk. Get into a lot of Japanese hardcore/fastcore - bands like Gauze, The Execute, Bastard, Outo, Exclaim, G.I.S.M. (weird fuckers), Lip Cream, etc. (US Hardcore does not compare in intensity)

Also like a lot of '80s Hardcore and Anarcho stuff by the likes of Crude SS, Minor Threat, Terveet Kädet, Stupids, Agnostic Front, Anti-Cimex, Anti-System, SS Decontrol, Heresy, Crucifix, Poison Idea, Raegan Youth, Rudimentary Peni (early pre-grind stuff), Vicious Circle (Oz), Massappeal (Oz).

And (relatively) milder stuff by Black Flag, Angry Samoans, Circle Jerks, The Subhumans, Flux of Pink Indians, JFA, 76% Uncertain & The Faction.

she's just likes to try and dress like one
two out of three of her songs i have heard are ballads

[wa~wa]

I like punk, electronic punk, i think it's been coined with 'electroclash'.

Things are too clean and refined in this era at the turn of the century. I like things a bit raw, raunchy, and with some fuckin attitude or bite for christ's sake!

I can't think of one modern band i like anymore....death in vegas maybe, their new album's a bit disapointing though. I like 'dubnobasswithmyheadman era' Underworld, they were really gutsy and innovative.

[wa~wa]

Refering to some of the posts on here...punk is anything that's alternative, or fresh with a bit of bite.

The sex pistols and co coined the term and this is what it meant at the time. It doesn't have to be rock n roll with guitars!

its better to have people think of you a moron, than to open your mouth and confirm it.

[Static]

:laugh:

as if i care what anyone thinks (let alone a bunch of drug fucked teknoscapers)....

if you dont want my opinions (or anyone elses for that matter) then get off the fucking board.

Personally I find other people's opinions interesting. There are times (such as now) when I dont agree... so I state my non-agreeance and try to be funny while doing it so others that may agree with me can hav a laff.... if I offend you or your tastes/opinions... shit happens... build a bridge.

To me, punk is gay. It all sounds the same and i keep on hearing pathetic punk covers of 70s and 80s tracks. which is as bad as me 'stealing' rnb lyrics (but actually worse coz they copy the same melodies and all... i try to come up with my own)...

I used to get into a bit of the sex pistols n stuff when I was younger but my tastes moved on to greener pastures...

if you all like punk.... good for you... :D

you're cool, static.

ANYWAY, how bout the punk crew in here up a mp3 or two for others to listen to? I just stuck up one of my favourite tunes ever, by the awesome SLICK SHOES.
The riffing in the intro displays what a clueless 3 chord sterotyping knobend static is, and it also gives you a good taste of how fucking rocking slick shoes are.

[hitmonlee]

but she's not punk!

but i'm sure i have heard rock the casbah on 94.5 before

that's punk... right :look:

[billie]

i wasn't arguing with you hey, just making the point that 94.5 don't ususally play punk (maybe they play the occasional Clash tune) = i agree she's not punk.

i can't believe that people think avril and pink are so "alternative" and punky, they're just as poppy and commercial as britney, just have different hair colour.

the only old-skool punk type band in australia at the moment would have to be 6ft hick.. apparently their live show is sensational.....

BUZZCOCKS - SATURDAY FEB 8....

I guess that is a bit strange. I'm gonna have to think about it. I might check out some of Klute's stuff -- I rate The Stupids as one of the best British hardcore outfits ever -- and try to find some common ground.

Operation Ivy - Sound System.mp3 (http://bastardson.org/mp3/Operation Ivy - Sound System.mp3)


I saw NOFX live at Metros Freo in '97? and they put on a damn fine show. But they didn't play any of their early stuff which is more hardcore so I was a bit miffed. My mate nabbed their playlist and I've got the ticket stub somewhere. I think M.U.T.T. supported along with a third band (can't remember the name of them).

Best punk gig for me would have to be Ramones at BDO '95. I got right up the front with all these freaky drugged up young guys and teenage punk chicks with cool, casual expressions and I was thinking 'you have no idea what you are in for.' So the band kick off with the usual '1,2,3,4!' lead-in and I swear I've never seen fear of death expressed so convincingly in my life. The fucking intensity of the mosh was unbelievable and because there were no breaks in between songs (just '1,2,3,4!') there was no chance of escape from the mayhem. I had to laugh at these poor (crying) young girls being pulled to safety by the security thinking to myself 'you poor babies'. In the end it got a wee bit much and I allowed myself to be forced out of the maelstrom - you can only be kicked in the head by so many pairs of Doc Martens before it ceases to be enjoyable. The contradiction between the music (which is hard but not very hard) and the intensity of the action up front was staggering. What a rush!

Also one of the best hard punk bands Australia has produced (The Meanies) played at the same event. I remember sitting on a small grassy hill at Freo oval and thinking that there wasn't gonna be much of a crowd. Then they started playing and all these freaks came out of the woodwork. Punks with big fins, large bald-headed dudes and heaps of skinny, shirtless white bodies. All bouncing away merrily. Some dude took a leap off a 15 ft. speaker stack expecting the crowd to catch him. Funny.

[bruce]

Heh. I went to all those gigs too.
The support for NOFX in 97 was Mutt and Dystonia. Snuff from England were supposed to play, I was pissed off they didnt come.
Eric Melvin kicked a massive speaker stack off the stage.
Fat Mike said 'sorry about the shitty metal support acts'..
Ramones at BDO is something I will take to the grave.
Another fave gig of all time was Suicidal Tendencies + Storytime @ the Boans Warehouse in 94.

[germfree]

Fuck, I was at that one too. They had that stupid roped off area for drinking. I must have spent a lot of time in there because I can't remember much of that gig.

[germfree]

I remeber another funny event at the NOFX gig: somebody threw a T.S.O.L. tape up on stage and whichever band mamber picked it up said 'we're not a fucking metal band!' (or something along those lines).

BLACK FLAG | Nervous Breakdown (1978)

1. Nervous Breakdown (2:04) http://home.iprimus.com.au/groyn/nervousbreakdown.mp3
2. Fix Me (0:54) http://home.iprimus.com.au/groyn/fixme.mp3
3. I've Had It (1:22) http://home.iprimus.com.au/groyn/ivehadit.mp3
4. Wasted (0:50) http://home.iprimus.com.au/groyn/wasted.mp3

Keith Morris - who later went on to form the Circle Jerks - on vocals.
Far superior to their Rollins era stuff.

I have a live video of Black Flag (from '84) with Henry Rollins out front (wearing a really gay fishnet t-shirt). Some weird nutter in a surgeon's gown lets guitarist Greg Ginn slag on his hair and back through most of the gig. And the crowd laughs at Rollins' verbal wankery. It's a good video but the mix is so bad all you can hear is soft guitar, faint kicks and Rollins' (pretty ordinary) screamed vocals. Anyone know of any other DVDs of Black Flag live (earlier stuff maybe)?

[Grover]

Aren't the Hard Ons playing the BDO this year? Always liked their live gigs

[bruce]

Yeah they are. I'm not excited at all. They're really a poor shell of a band compared to how they used to be.

[Grover]

Yeah? Why is that? Haven't heard anything new from them, I thought they might just be getting back together for a good ol' bash at things for the fun of it

[bruce]

When Klute came over here to play at Players in 2000, The Hardons were doing a gig over the road at the Grovesnor Backroom.
Tom Withers aka Klute had toured with them 10 years previously in his band The Stupids and was totally spun out to learn they'd reformed and were playing a gig across the road from his Perth tour.
Anyway the Hardons got a bit pissy and babbled on about how they were only doing it for money and had been offered stacked of cash to play.
I guess it would be ok to see them again, but somethings should be left to die gracefully. I saw the Meanies in April in Melbourne and it just wasn't there anymore.

[Grover]

ahhh well it was fun while it lasted :) I saw 'em play with Allegiance at Berlin around the same time Prodigy played there, I think it was the night before... quite a contrast as you could imagine!
Remember Thrombus? And Fleshmesh? What the fuck happened to them? Isn't Paul Sloane a promoter now or something?

[bruce]

Thrombus turned into Valvolux then Paul Sloan started Aaargh!
Managing bands and doing tours and other things like Yac It Up. He's had another band since then, I forget who.

I still have a Thrombus 'Turd In My Stocking' Xmas poster from like 91 :P

[Grover]

Yeah me too!!! Is that the one with Rudolph shitting on Santa's face? Turd II - Rudolph's Revenge! Classic!
Sweaty Balls, Sweaty Balls....

haha yes thats the one
I was in like year 10 then

ferry corsten - punk.... cosmic gate remix
killer tune!!!!!!!!!!!!... ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.....:laugh:

[heist]

Saw Local Pricks last nite at the Hydey and damn, can that chica kick it out.. they were awesome

Subtruck opened for 'em, and they're a bit heavy pub-rock for my taste but they're tight as hell

it did kinda piss me off that no one in the crowd moves beyond bobbing their head!... seems so strange after doing nothing but dancing for the last couple years

you've got a group on stage giving it everything they have, the lead singer climbing on amps, kicking stuff over and feeling herself up on the ground in front of the crowd, and everyone is... nodding their heads.. :confused:

[hox]

ebony you have a MULLET ..or you will soon.

i used to go out to local punk gigs quite a bit...my friend managed a couple and she lives for punkrock.
i dont mind it, can go see live punk bands i like hardcore punk none of this emo crap.....

i like pc thug, ballpoint (they changed their name to cold light of day??? i dunno if theyve changed it since then or if theyre even still together).....

oh yes and i must give props to billings ...the drummer was HOT



;)

[geisha]

has anyone seen the clash DVD westway to the world

tom morello (now from audioslave) says its worth watching, havent seen it myself

farewell to joe strummer

[ABCD2]

are audioslave any good?
never liked cornell or his style too much......

westway to the world isn't bad.... worth watching, but i was never a huge fan of the clash, was ok as a punk rock documentary as well.

have you seen filth and the fury? probably best punk documentary i've seen...

[dokta phat]

nah havent seen it, i hear johnny rotten is quite funny in it though

yeah i havent got the new audioslave cd yet but it sounds quite good, most are rage orientated songs not really soundgarden, so if your into your r.a.t.m. its probly worth a listen

[hox]

LOVIN

is what i got.


:inlove:

I can't help but compare audioslave to Rage, which I think is fair because they're pimping it as cornell with 'the power of ratm' .. and I think rage were so much better.. cornell just doesnt have zach's energy

maybe it'd be different if they were around six or seven years ago when i got into rage, and i'll keep checking out their stuff, but I'm not buying an album anytime soon.

[heist]

so...

Good Charlotte, eh?

[ASYLUM]

Sex Pistols, Dead Kennedy's... lil' bit o' the madness and Clash etc partial to Keith Flint's new band also... haven't been to a gig in years tho... definately not into the american style... blink and good charlotte etc

I love Cornell's voice when he actually sings properly. I spend 90% of their songs waiting for him to stop screaming and give us a taste of the incredible sound he is capable of.

soundgarden meets rage - it's not exactly for the wimpy robbie williams listeners! But I agree it doesn't have ratm's energy, as it seems most of their energy came from Zach.

But Zach's solo efforts have been great so far. It's not a passing that I greatly mourn (re: ratm).

[Biznatch Haderach]

mm...punk.
I used to listen to a reasonable amount...
Nancy Vandal - they were pretty funny for a while - riding the punk rock bandwagon since 1995
GG allin was a favourite of mine too. hehe - dirty love songs :)

[Tension]

Rosemount, Monday Nights. I went there last week and they have some orright young up-and-comers playing.

I only went to see a couple of friends play. I really dislike punk. I wouldn't go so far as to diss it because you shouldn't knock what you havn't tried, but I think its all a bit stale. I appreciate the drumming, but you can keep fast guitar chords and nasal yelling about teen angst.

Metal > Punk

[doorselfin]

i like punk. Mostly into hardcore Early La/Dc scene's and NYHC! which would be said shouty noisy stuff that everyone who doesn't like punk seems to hate.

Toe to toe i rate. good live too.
mindsnare, sick of it all, madball, blood for blood, circle jerks, minor threat, cro-mags, shelter (not so much later stuff), jawbreaker, ignite, FATA/PTW, social distortion, stiff little fingers, the adverts, the addicts, dead kennedy's... i could go on and on and on.

never liked earth crisis though. far too militant. nothing against sxe but i hate the preachy sxe kids. (vegan reich anyone??). sxe is such a fashion in perth at the moment.

i hate a hell of a lot of punk and love probably equal ammounts.
i was into the perth scene about 3-4 years ago, when i was about 15-16. Boredumb and ballpoint rocked. (although i only saw ballpoint live once, and they were awfull. i requested a song and the singer todl me "we don't play our old stuff". he was an asshole. Don't even get me started on the travesty that is last years hero. i wish they were last years heroes and forgotten about.). i stopped going to punk gigs as i got sick of the perth scenesters. Sick of those scenesters "oh you like band X they are sellouts, i only like obscure band Y who only released one song on a german label in 1978". I'm sure the punkclones guys were ok in person, but they were dickheads whenever i saw them.

-end me-

[RinseOut]

Dead Kennedys!!!

Frenzal Rhomb are always good too. Great live act and on stage antics :laugh: (BDO - they got 3 huge John Howard pinyata's on stage and got random punks from the crowd to smack them around with a stick)

Suicidal Tendancies are gold too
