grew up in the era when punk was considered a radical and dangerous style of music. all time fav band is without a doubt NOFX, i love what they do, without them the scene would be completly different i think. im not a huge fan of all the screamo coming out at the moment, its starting to get really repetative. i like a good chunk of metal now and then, and i need to say that the balckening by machine head was a WORK OF ART!!!
When the sun’s out and I’m feeling carefree I love my ska and pop-punk. When I’m feeling nostalgic and wistful I skew towards Menzingers or emo. When I’ve had three cups of coffee and need an outlet for the nebulous discontentment that silently builds behind the exterior of my stoic demeanor I turn towards hardcore-punk. That’s where I’m at this morning so when a request to check out the debut album from Californian skate-punk/hardcore act Facelift hit my inbox it was perfectly timed. This music is raw. It’s fast as hell. And it’s f’ing pissed off. Oh, and it’s riddled with metallic riff breakdowns which absolutely clinched it for me (give it 2:20 into the album opener to see what I mean). Turn up the volume and let off some steam with me by streaming “Sinceforevertilwhenever” here.
isnt this what punk rock is all about? anti-conformisism?
