Grunge Forum

I'm not trying to be rude by saying this but you have a tendency to come off almost mansplainy, like you think you know it all but aren't always correct and still have more to learn. I see this conversation as pointless now frankly.

Sure, but even punk of that era was political. Even proto-punk was political. Speaking as someone who has studied the histories of rock and punk since the time period in which you would have been a little kid, and who grew up seeing punk around me in the 90s, and who goes to punk shows regularly, I ...

There aren't that many rightists in punk though. It's largely a left-wing movement. If you go out to punk shows on the regular, you'll see what I mean that it's all about the politics. The lyrics, what they say at shows etc. It's a political leftist movement that uses music to get the point across. ...

Punk was pretty centric to the politics, it just used music and aesthetic to get the politics across a bit more. And yeah, there there was a ton of that cross-political unity with Hippies.

I want that one too! My receptionist job won't allow me to get more tattoos though so I have to wait

So these guys are still around playing shows. I caught them at the Plaid Pig bar and venue in Tacoma last night. It was pretty cool to see them and hear songs I've been familiar with for years. They ended with "Kill the President." I'm glad they're still around and will probably see them again if I ...

The Chronicles of Nona.

I get the feeling of being broken and alone after someone close to you dies but it doesn't make any sense for someone who wasn't in the band to try to control it if there are still band members alive. The other people in a band should have more say in what happens to the band, the remaining music, a...

Oh my nongod!!! That's amazing

Happy belated birthday!

Grunge is pretty garage rock though.

Huh, I haven't heard about them. Anyway, they current Seattle Scene is everything . There are over 80 places that play live music just within Seattle city limits, and that's not including all the endless amounts of house venues because every punk that has access to a garage, basement, or living room...
