I’ll say it right now, when I hear the horns hit in the beginning of reel big fish’s cover of take on me, I could kick a fucking door down.

Holy shit I just saw the bottom this is gold.

For prosperity and solidarity with sneaky. This whole record still goes off.

My high school junior/senior year i went to ska shows almost every weekend and was in a band and we almost got to play with no doubt.  We played on stage with a lot of Asian man records artists

This was the tune that sucked me in.

Is Leftover Crack considered ska? How about Star Fucking Hipsters? If so, I like ska.

Also, real confession, I like Leftover Crack.

I mean, when there is no hope.. I’ll smoke some crack and shoot some dope.

[Gray Imp Sausage Metal]

Leftover Crack/ Choking Victim could be exceptions to the rule? OPIV too!

I saw a girl at the skate park on Sunday on a longboard doing power slide/ no comply/ fancy footwork combos and I gave her inner props to maybe even a whispered “yeah”

[Madam, I'm Adam]

I don’t like the word “skater.”

[doublesteveburger]

If any dorks out there love Crack Rock Steady, the new book Architects of Self-Destruction by Brad Logan & Co is a fucking great read.



I love ska and I don’t give a shit about how dorky it is to do so. Also, listen to Jeff Rosenstock.

My confession: other than two Black flag songs, I can't stand punk.

My confession: other than two Black flag songs, I can't stand punk.

on the flip side of that: I fucking love punk, but there’s probably only two black flag songs I can actually stand

Since I listen to worst shit ever I don't judge you, my dude.

Heres one I’ve always kept close to the chest, when I was a baby I looked like a spitting image of Ross Perot.

I love black flag, and Rollins as a person (went to his house once). That being said, I think he was far from the best singer black flag had and the no policy ep from when he was in state of alert absolutely crushes anything he released with black flag.

I've never been able to get into black flag either, despite the fact that they've influenced so many bands I love.

I’ve never gotten into Black Flag nor Bad Brains. I prefer Sex Pistols to both of them. Which I know is a super hot take among punk music fans.

soa does indeed rip. i feel you on him not being the best of their singers. but you can't deny the damaged LP has a certain power behind it none of the other singles or EPs had before or after....

Ya, damaged is good for sure, as is my war. But I constantly revisit the jealous again and six pack ep’s as wel as everything went black. Very rarely over the last 15 years have I just been aching to hear damaged.

I think that Chavo is the best singer they had, then Dez, then Rollins.

I honestly haven't listened to a ton of black flag, but I love Henry in general

What about if you spelt it "sk8er"?

Nothing wrong with the Pistols. Nevermind the Bollocks is a classic, fuck what anyone else says.
Bad Brains is one of those bands that I specifically remember the first time I heard them. It was one of those "this is what I've been looking for" sounds.

That’s the feeling I had when I first heard Jesse sing “I know things are getting tougher…” two seconds into energy.

Milo Goes to College may be the tightest So Cal punk rock album of the 1st wave. Also, Black Flag First Four Years will make anyone a believer…

Always loved their covers. No fun. Substitute. No lip. Stepping stone. Great choices in covers.

Pistols were awesome. Punks seem very split down the middle whether they appreciate them or not. I can't listen to much old US hardcore anymore though but still have time for Crucifix, Necros, Bad Brains, Cro-Mags and a few others. I really prefer the early European/Japanese/Aus/NZ stuff instead.

I’ve been passionate about two things since early high school; Hardcore and Skating.

But for some weird reason I never cross the two - like I’ve never contributed to the dedication thread about hardcore music and I would never skate in a Knocked Loose shirt.. If I was going to a show I would never wear my thrasher hat.

Even though the two cultures have similarities and definitely have cross over tendencies - I’ve just always kept them separate. This is weird to even type haha

I saw Knocked Loose before COVID… and I’m pretty sure I was wearing my thrasher hat. And my thrasher hat has a Pallbearer pin on it so it was real multi-cultural affair.

Jealous - I love them so much, being in Oz, I missed the only time they came over. Kinda bummed Ill never get to see them at a smaller more traditional show setting since they’ve blown up.

I feel the same way about skating and black metal. Been involved with both since high school (I'm 39), but I think mixing the two is almost always pretty corny. I'll occasionally post in the black metal thread on here, but that is about as far as it goes.

HA - Nice to know I’m not alone! I know what you mean about it being kinda corny. When I see Chris Cole skating in an ETID shirt I cringe even though I love that band haha.
