punk is great when everything else fails. i love the ramones and other bands. bad religion is good, too. as for ska, i LOOOOVE ska. the aquabats, catch 22 and a lot of latin american ska bands are just great.
The only punk I like is Green Day..though they're probably half alternative too.
I'm not into punk that much, mainly because it's too loud at times...but Green Day strikes a chord with me.
could i get the names of some latin american ska. id like to hear it.Quote:

I like usually like smart political punk like Bad Religion, but I don't really say no to anything.
And do you know who used to be a GREAT ska band? No Doubt. Seriously, before the Tragic Kingdom LP, that's pretty much all the did. Now...
Well, let's not talk about now.
never really been into ska or punk....i like early green day...thats about it.
my friends at school were totally into punk but me being my outcast self i listened to pantera and such like.
I adore punk rock; The Adicts, Narcoleptic Youth, Anti-Nowhere League, Lower Class Brats, Naked Aggression, The Buzzcocks... I could rant all day about it.
Ska is good too, but I'm not as into it as I used to be. Offhand I can think of Five Iron Frenzy, The Insyderz, The OC Supertones, Skankin Pickles, and of course; The Aquabats. Come to think of it, the ska I like best is Christian ska. There's so many good Christian ska bands, but not many good Christian punk bands. Huh. Never noticed that before.
As for the bands name here; No Doubt's early stuff was gold, I cant stand them now. Green Day as well, though I will admit American Idiot sticks in my head. Bad Religion is good, their new song (at least I think it's new) is great. Millencolin is okay, I've found most of their songs tend to sound the same to me.
Green Day is good, but they are horribly overplayed. I can't go 5 minutes in the car without hearing Boulevard of Broken Dreams. :/
sure.Quote:

there you go. fabulosos and mosca aren't 100% ska but theres lots of percution and wind instruments. they're about 11 members each. the same goes to king chango. come to think about it... download anything from all the bands
RX BANDITS
Reel Big Fish used to be awesome. I don't know if they are now or not.
Oooh I forgot the Rx Bandits. I saw them a long time ago, with The Hippos.
Reel Big Fish were good a while ago, now not so much...
Hey, the Bosstones were good. "The Guns And The Young" was one of my favorite songs growing up. My bro would play it constantly.
I like 311, too. Ska is good, I just don't have the time to check out a lot of Ska groups.
I'm a far bigger fan of old school punk than i am of any new stuff (read as: anything played on the radio.) I know it's cliche, but it's gotten SOOOOOO Poppy. but then again, i'd probably be shot for saying I'm only just on the good side of the fence on The Clash. I love london calling and a number of songs on the Album, but as a whole, it's a bit to ska flavored for my taste. Gimme some fast dirty stuff. Ramones, Dead Kennedys, The Devotchka's, etc. Sex Pistols were good when they were dirty and ragged. (and yeah, for the underground purists, I follow a lot of lesser known stuff more than those listed above, and local bands, but it kinda defeats the purpose of defining the STYLE i'm in to to name 50 bands two people on this forum have ever listened to)
Hells yep.Quote:

I did used to be quite a punk fan, but after a couple of years it became a bit repetitive and I moved on. A lot of it is still worth listening to, but there are other genres that interest me more now.
its cool to see so many people like it here. at my school me and two of my friends are the only people who like it.(or even heard of it)
"it" is ska by the way
I'm more into Green Day's Modern stuff like 1039 SSH and American Idiot albums are nice. I bought Dookie, Nimrod, and Insomniac and they're okay.
But GD is the only punk that I really like. Punk generally doesn't need much musical talent. The songs are 2-3 minutes long and if you can play 3 chords, you can start a punk band.
But modern punk is more pop punk now. Pop as in popular, not pop as in Jesse McCartney and Savage Garden. But eh.
punk is not more pop now. youre just talking junky pop-punk bands like simple plan and good charlette. they suck. must people have never heard of real punk.
oh, i forgot! search for dos minutos too!Quote:

Nirvana.
whatever lets just all be friends.
I see a lot of good punk bands (I like some), but I don't see one very good group that seems to be an underground favorite and that is Rise Against. They have a great sound and I recommend it to anyone. They own!
yeah i'll agree that rise against is good.
