i've just back from Feeder at Koko and although they are a tight band they are painfully mor and dont rock out nearky enough !! All the best gigs ive ever been to from the clash through to sham 69,cockney rejects, weller sex pistolds motorhead ,buzzcocks business etc have been full of skinheads and ive had the contents of at least one pint thrown over me !! These sort of bands really know how to move a crowd and the audiences go absolutely mental !! Most new bands these days go through the motions and pick up the dollar for bland mor virgin radio fodder !! We desperately need a new punk revolution !!

"We desperately need a new punk revolution !!"

Says the guy who went to see Feeder.


What are you going to do about it though?!?

Eh??
Start a punk band, maybe?!

I wish you luck.


Me or him?

I'm going to sit in my pants and eat chocolate raisins... :)


I've got cashew nuts. This could get heavy

(ps when's the album out?)


Fucking hell

that song is horrendous. I think I'd rather listen to Feeder to be honest.


Nope

It's because it's total watered down crap.


Not every song of theirs can be like 'Horse Hunter'

It's good that some of their stuff is more accesible.

It's by no means their best song though obviously, it just happened I was watching that video when I read this thread.

Although my favourite is Setting Fire To Sleeping Giants, and you probably don't like that one either.


see for me

Horse Hunter is probably one of the most accessible/enjoyable tracks on that album...evidently I'm doing it wrong


On that album, maybe

But I'm talking about Dillinger's entire back catalogue.


ah right

to be honest I totally agree with your point if every song was 'sugar coated sour' or '43% burnt' as good as they are, the albums on the whole would be a fairly exhausting listen, so it's good to have tracks like 'Setting Fire To Sleeping Giants' or 'Black Bubblegum' to slow things up a bit.


punk is gay

skinheads are still pretty cool though


"Punk is gay"

I'm imagining the whole of punk having a sexual preference.. weird.

Now you're atop a giant gold chair hitting "queers" over the head with a giant frankfurt hotdog as you're carried down the street by various other gits.


Of course it does

*pats on head*


ps

i wasn't being ENTIRELY serious


I know


hahahahh

it wasn't ENTIRELY serious


not to be the buzz-killing PC wanker

but using "gay" as a negative term is a really shitty thing to do.

stoppit.


Don't

be so gay.


Also, Paul Weller and The Jam can kiss my grits

Terrible, terrible bands.


All the bands he listed wre

apart from Motorhead.


*were

you know where it's at

The kids are handeling 'a new punk revolution' and they have decided t make it raw as hell Grime and hiphop but we all know your rants on that matter.... hehehe not you walkingwithwolves... the dude posting the thread.


Wasn't that the American guy?

Rue The Day or something. Or do all 'older' (say's the 30 yr old) posters on DiS hate Hip Hop?


Rue The Day

he is wicked well apart form his hiphop hate heheh. I like that dude he has passion.

This still rockin guy is a freakin tool when it comes to it though its well funny.


i'm over 30 and...

i like hip-hop. but only the good stuff obviously (jay-z is not good by the way).

i also dislike most punk, i find a lot of it pretty fake.


Off to the Quietus with you

There's a simple solution to your problem. DON'T GO AND WATCH FUCKING FEEDER.

Go and watch Lightning Bolt or something. It's like punk in new and interesting forms.


this post is amazing

appreciate it more.


It would have been lolllsome

If it hadn't started off being about Feeder haha.


it's definately a troll though right?

he's 47 and he's called stillrockin and he's talking about punk. this is what it must be like to be glen matlock's nephew


if he's not

he might be my favourite user


NO.

Best gigs are the ones when there's a surprisingly low turn-out, and the headliner tries double-hard, and it's all veyr personal, and you discover an amazing new band supporting, and you can get to the bar easily but there's still an atmosphere, and you make friends with the merch guy and get freebies, maybe meet a hot chick.


Do they exist?

I've been to a couple.

Maybe not with the meeting the hot girl bit, but everything else, now and again.
