I am freakin’ 36 years old and I have recently found myself inexplicably drawn to ska punk music. No idea what’s going on.
Anyway, this band called [URL=http://www.pintsizerocks.com]pintSize[/URL] is insane and I love them. Think of Green Day with more musical talent and plenty of f-bombs with a hot female vocalist who wants to kick your ass literally. :huh:
I mean, songs like “Say Yes to Drugs”… What the hell is wrong with me? Isn’t it a bit early for a mid-life crisis?
You oughta give Millencolin or The Bouncing Souls a shot.

Save Ferris and Dance Hall Crashers.
Mustard Plug is the best 3rd wave ska band ever. EVER.
For harder stuff, Link 80, Voodoo Glow Skulls and Against All Authority.
For poppier stuff, Bosstones, Reel Big Fish, Less Than Jake.
Need I say more?

Dude, Millencolin rocks. The Bouncing Souls ain’t too bad either… thanks!
punk sucks. I hate blast beats.
Refused was good. they made an album called “The Shape of Punk to Come”. But it was hardcore, not punk.
But they broke up. And they were socialists anyway.

Hardcore is punk.
Refused are boss though.

Life on a plate and for monkeys were good.
I’m not big on Pennybridge Pioneers, like most Millencolin fans are.
Bouncing Souls, I only really like the song kid.
Fat Wreck and Epitaph have loads of skate punk bands if you are into bands like BS and Millencolin.
I like 4th wave ska and death new age. I used to like NuEmo, but now I’m more into bubble gum trance.

Bad taste in music I guess.

“Hardcore punk (or hardcore) is a faster and heavier version of punk rock usually characterized by short, loud, and often passionate songs with exceptionally fast tempos and chord changes.”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardcore_punk
“Hardcore is the style that began in the early 80s, often applied to
bands such as Black Flag, Minor Threat, Sick of It All, Bad Brains,
Rollins Band, Fugazi, etc.–sort of “2nd wave” punk bands.”
http://www.faqs.org/faqs/cultures/straight-edge-faq/section-19.html
"D.O.A. popularized the term “hardcore” as applied to punk rock music with the release of “Hardcore '81”, a pivotal record from the early west coast hardcore punk scene. Hardcore was (and is) uncompromising punk attitude combined with
social activism. Sort of “punk with a message”, but not to be confused
with “straight edge” or “PC” movements, later variations of hardcore.
West coast hardcore was completely different from the “fashionable"
punk rock of art school students and posers - in the early days of
punk there was a huge difference between the English-style punks
with their fashionably torn and safety-pinned look, and the hardcore
’street’ punk who just didn’t give a **** about their appearance.”

I had a sXe girlfriend who loved the joke. “Earth Crisis walks into a bar…”

Au contraire mon frere.
My musical tatses range from Neil Diamond to Black Flag and everywhere in between. It’s just that I’m sort of stuck on one genre right now. :silly:
Neil Diamond rules. He should join a hardcore band. A metal version of Sweet Caroline would rock the house.
Wasn’t the main character in Psych named Norman? Dude… put down the ska, just walk away, and no one gets hurt! Talk about the most random rambling ever posted.
I also enjoy cutting myself and crying myself to sleep every night.

WTF? Can’t a man vary his musical tastes? JD, what are you listening to these days? The incessant din of Barney songs has got to be getting to you at some point.
