Lightning Bolt are my girlfriend's favorite band.

i've only listened to a lightning bolt album once a long time ago and didn't like it, then never listened to them again.

Everyone on here likes OOIOO.

Everyone on here likes Stars of the Lid.

Everyone on here likes Shellac.

well i'm listening to Wonderful Rainbow and so far i like it. might listen to Hypermagic Mountain afterwards.

The first punk band is The Ramones , to me.

same, i consider the stooges etc just rock 'n roll.

are you kidding me? the stooges incorporated punk, noise, free jazz, they were light years ahead of their time. la blues is no wave.

the stooges, blue cheer, MC5 were NOT PUNK! they were just regular but darker garage rock, like th animals or a million other bands that the fuck from the e street band plays in his radio show! the first two stooges records have just as much turgid BULLSHIT as anyone says about the first two sabbath records.

the stooges did not incorporate SHIT
they just rocked as passionately as possible, with absolutely minimal technical skill, and managed to pull it off.

I ahve never heard OOIOO or stars of the lid. (shitty name BTW, almost all-time shitty))

I need to go listen

Considering Black Sabbath came from Birmingham, working class, loads of children...I would say they adequeting represent the spirit of punk.

We are not talking about silver spoons or private educations here people...

Musically, it is not really all that different, I am afriad to say. Metallica, Green Day, Ramones...

To set 'punk' at certain band or gig is silly. Joan of Arc was punk, Jesus too.

I'm so sick of this thread.

I like her panties

Nope.. while the albums mild connections to punk make some sense, sabbath can not rationally be associated with the movement. Its their sort of bombast that helped create punk's reactionary music in the first place.
Great band (for about 4 albums anyways) but not really punk.

man, she sounds like a damn good person.. sorry to presume on the basis of just one sentence...

i would like to shake her hand in fond affection of being such a good person!!!!
or at least send some myspace kudos!

yeah me too.

who cares.

Haha.

End of thread.

Here Are The Sonics was the first punk rock album. 1965. Major influence on the Kinks and the Who. Loud as fuck, teen angst, "STRYCHNINE!"

dumbass thead....I mean, really.

sounds pretty punk to me


but ok, they were not "punk", as punk wasn´t even "inventet" yet, but still they made the blueprint for punkrock. three chord nihilistic rocknroll.

and yeah, dumd thread.
We should have a "i´m more punk than thou" and "this band is so much more punk than that band" thread. Those are usualy very constructive


final words:
gabba gabba hey
