Great thread.
I think Jesus Lizard would kill the Birthday Party, but it'd be extremely close and extremely violent. I think they'd both play fucked up arpeggios at each other for a while but Jesus Lizard's trebly, classically-trained (!?) licks would destroy Birthday Party's ear drums in time for Jesus Lizard to take the advantange.
Velvet Underground and Pink Floyd wouldn't even battle, they'd sit around and get smacked out of their minds.
Unwound would destroy Sonic Youth, since Unwound are younger and tougher. Thurston's a tall guy so naturally he'd be the last to go out. Another violent battles. Crazy-ass Sonic Youth fans would inevitably set Unwound on fire after the battle though. So, really, no one would win.
The Kills and the Ravonettes would just stand there and yell "YOU SUCK!" at each other. And no one would care.
Ramones would tear Television apart. I don't think I need to explain this one.
Okay, with the Sex Pistols, you have one retard smack addict, so this is now basically a 3 piece band. You have a guy from PiL and 2 other guys who didn't really do much else. Okay, so basically, a tough PiL asshole versus ALL of Joy Division? Granted, Ian probably would be too busy shitting himself or trying to kill himself during the fight, but Peter Hook
alone would easily destroy everyone in the Sex Pistols with his fucking hands tied behind his back.
Even though I prefer Minor Threat musically, Ian is a fucking pussy. He'd start crying as soon as Black Flag bumped into them. Remember, Ian hates people who slamdance, because that is a fun activity that he did during his early days, but now he doesn't want people to do that and he writes songs, he actually TAKES THE TIME AND EFFORT TO WRITE SONGS CHASTIZING PEOPLE BUMPING INTO PEOPLE AS A FUN ACTIVITY, SOMETHING HE DID WHEN HE WAS A KID. Any era of Black Flag would win this battle, even though Greg Ginn is just some silly burn-out who thinks he knows how to play guitar and would probably just be a liability to the rest of the band. Still, Ian would show up in pink panties, and Henry Rollins (or whoever) would just fucking rape him with his monster fucking dick.
