MemberI listened to a lot of bands like Circle Jerks, Exploited, Agnostic Front in late 80’s, but I’d say first I really got into was probably Minor Threat a year or 2 later.

MemberI just finished This book is full of spiders, seriously dude don’t touch it. It was very good…I liked it better than John dies at the end. Quite humerous.

MemberI’ve been listening to White Lung a lot recently. They’re pretty badass.

MemberI like Dogwood. Musically, I’d say they’re pretty punk…on the poppy side, but fast. Lead vocals are probably an acquired taste. Lyrically, they are extremely christian…with a few exceptions, pretty much all their songs reference their religious or moral beliefs.

MemberI forgot about The Muffs. She’s the female vocalist on NOFX’s Lori Meyers.

MemberSeems completely improbable, but I can actually list a single album that is my all-time favorite:
Bigwig – Reclamation.
It came out on my birthday almost 7 years ago and I instantly loved it. The infusion of metal elements seemed so revolutionary…they were a punk band incorporating some metal rather than a metal/thrash band playing some punk. It goes strong from start to finish, not a single weak song. All are memorable on their own, but together make a completely badass album. There have been times over the years that it hasn’t left my pickup’s cd player for weeks at a time (granted I do have a short drive between home and work).pfilc
MemberThe Distillers, Go Betty Go, Tsunami Bomb, L7. There’s some other decent band “Mandy and the ?” or something like that…can’t remember

MemberI saw the Cro-Mags in either ’88 or ’89…boy, was that an eye-opening experience.

MemberHello, I’m Phil and live in Oregon. I was born in ’74 in SoCal, but raised in Denver. My brother who is 4 years older got me into punk at a pretty early age. I remember skating in the driveway listening to black flag and circle jerks in ’83-’84 or so and I’ve listened ever since.
I’m a fan of all punk genres, from pop to hardcore, gravelcore to cowpunk. I work as a CAD manager at an engineering firm and teach CAD part-time at the local community college. I live in a fairly small town now, so it’s a bit of a drive to the city for shows, but my bro and I try to as often as life allows.
I’m a frequent visitor/reader of DS (maybe obsessively so lol). Seriously, I’ve discovered so many of my current favorite bands here: A Dying Regime, Does it Matter, Banner Pilot, Shell Corporation, Dead to Me, Yankee Brutal.
