I used to like Green Day back in the Dookie days and maybe a little Nimrod too, now they too annoy me.
Im guessing punk to you is anti-flag sound?

Fav punk bands:

Misfits
Minor Threat
Dead Kennedys
D.I.
The Vandals
Reagan Youth
Ramones
Subhumans
7 Seconds

But for me, my heart is 100% with mid/late 80s, early 90s industrial. This is the era of music I cannot live without. Skinny Puppy, Frontline Assembly, Ministry, REVCO, TKK, KMFDM, Front 242, Nitzer Ebb and all the various side projects and spin offs of these bands....I'll never get sick of.

Old enough to have seen all the acts listed (first live music was Hendrix, and I was trippin) but I was raised by wolves, and on my own pretty young:grinr:

[nfpgasmask]

Yeah, I figured you were old, crusty and ancient! LOL, jk. You just threw me off with your video game thread, cause gaming is typically a sign of youth, or relative youth at least (i'm getting old and crusty myself...well, I've always been crusty).

Hey, I resemble that remark!!

[johnnyapollo]

I listen to pretty much everything but I do have my favorites - those are mostly old SKA bands, pre-80's punk bands and early 80's new wave. I like old school rap (pre MTV Raps) and can't stand much of the new Hip Hop that's being peddled. I also like old lounge and acid jazz quite a bit. I've got an extensive collection.

This thread makes me want to dig up some of those CDs I haven't heard in awhile: Prong, Apex Theory, Violent Femmes, Coal Chamber, Credence, Bush, Escape From LA soundtrack, Rorshach Test, etc....

SIDENOTE: My Mom worked at a recording studio in San Francisco in the 60's. So she dated John Kay from Steppenwolf and partied with Janis Joplin... that explains a bit about how I came out, right?!

That's cool Dub, I'm still on PS2, no Wii or 360 or PS3 for me...yet. I think I might pick up a PS3 once we move into the new house though.

KMFDM??" Machines don't make mistakes, humans do.....that's why we employ machines"

Some may have considered Frank Zappa a genius....he certainly wasn't boring.
