hope im not overstepping the mark in this thread, but i would say that if youre looking for some new stuff, and havent heard of these guys, they are flying the flag for punk these days. just an outstanding band.
Anyway
I’m a 90s kid at heart.

“Start Today” by Gorilla Biscuits I reckon is the most underappreciated punk/hardcore album ever.
Very very tight, start to finish.

What I dislike is this new wave of ■■■■ punk that play and sound like black flag etc from the early 80s. Like they record and mix to sound ■■■■.
I enjoy well produced music

In NYC.
Hello to you too.
IIRC Joey Ramone was quoted that they kept their songs short so that the kids of the seventies (yeah I’m one) could crank up a Ramones album and have the entire LP played before the cops showed up
Was lucky enough to see the Ramones live a bunch of times over their years

i think it’s a pretty popular record.
Not enough!!
Well, that’s kind of the point of punk, isn’t it? If you take a punk band and record and produce them well you get Unknown Pleasures, i.e. post-punk
I had an anthropology lecturer talk about punk to his 2003? audience. ‘Green Day is not punk’. Earned my lifelong respect with that statement.

By that definition if you turn off the autotune on Kings of Leon, you get punk.
Seems a bit silly, doesn’t it?
There’s sometimes a fine line between garage and punk, I’ll give you that.
