Thanks for sharing.

Start was a bit meh, but it really took off after that. Def worth a look.

They’ve been around a while now, Brisbane band I haven’t seen live but they get plenty of airtime on ZZZ (local community radio). New album sounds good.

This is pretty interesting take on punk from mainstream artists of the day.

All those that don’t exist anymore. Worst genre of music EVER!!! Would rather listen to showtunes while inserting toothpicks into private places. Would be more enjoyable.

In no order
Offspring
Clash
Green Day
Good Charlotte
Blink 182
The Cure

Yeah, can’t think of any more, all terrible.

Lol its a bit crude to ā– ā– ā– ā–  on someone else’s music taste - show some class :wink:

Didn’t say anyone else shouldn’t listen to them, just expressing my personal viewpoint. Sorry to offend.

Not really :rofl:

Gonna go play me some Helen Reddy. (May not be true!!)

Lol believe in me when I say you don’t offend me but everybody else has taken umbrage at my music taste to the point that they feel personally slighted by the music I have played.

All good, those on here that know my music taste rib me mercilessly too. Loves me a bit of C&W. I will listen too some Punk, but it needs to be more controlled musically than a lot of bands are capable of. Everyone has different tastes, it is what makes music so wonderful. It would be truly horrid if we all only like two or three songs and played them endlessly. Did you ever dip your toes in the DJ Thread?

That’s pretty cool.

Haha yeah I bought some fun to an otherwise lifeless party :wink:, I enjoyed your sets fwiw as your tastes were varied. But I’ve changed my username since venturing in that thread and I’m rebranding. :grinning:

I’m not sure you know what punk is, because I’m giving you 1/6, maybe 2/6, of the bands you listed.

I’m not saying you’d like actual punk music, but I think you’re hating on the wrong genre if you think Good Charlotte and Blink 182 are punk.

Well, they’re kind of newer age punk. Plus I listened to enough of it in the DJ thread to know I don’t want to remember who the rest of em are.

When I was in Scotland about 15 years ago, I was at the pub talking to a group of girls who were studying fashion design.

We were talking about music, and I said I was into Punk rock music. They looked at me weird, and said that’s unusual because I don’t wear ā€œpunkā€ clothing. (I was wearing Chuck Taylors, Jeans and a Flanny)

So then I went on a big philosophical rant about how in Australia we don’t subscribe to Punk being a fashion style, and people are free to wear what they like, and nobody gives a sh*t…. And it’s purely about the music.
I described Radio Birdman, The Saints, The Birthday Party, The Scientists, Beasts of Bourbon, The Hard Ons, The Meanies, etc

Then they argued that it’s not ā€˜punk’ if the scene doesn’t look like stereo typical punks.

They just didn’t get it at all.
