To you punk rockers. Top 5 Albums?

reply to post by JValhalla


Man it's been a long time since I've listened to Punk Rock. I loved Operation Ivy, the Dead Kennedys, the Misfits (with Glen Danzig), the Bouncing Souls, and Pennywise. Those are my top 5 bands. Whoops, how could I forget about NOFX?!

These albums are my favorite.

Take Warning - OPERATION IVY


Dead Kennedys - California Uber Alles - Give Me Convenience or Give Me Death


Misfits - I Turned Into A Martian


The Bouncing Souls - Joe Lies (When He Crys)


Pennywise Bro Hymn


NOFX - Bob


Yeah that's right, I posted 6 albums and that's cuz I'm punk rock yo!

rancid- ...and out come the wolves, really any of their early albums
circle jerks- group sex/wild in the streets
sex pistols- nevermind the bollocks
ramones-
black flag- damaged

so many good bands though, its kinda hard to choose, rancid is my all time favorite, i got some of their artwork inked on my arm haha.

No particular albums but I really enjoy Offspring, Pennywise, Bad Religion and older Green Day.

Ya I went to go see MDC twice and both times I got kicked out! They haven't came back since.

Good to see punk rockers still around. I won't list 5 albums, instead I'd like to share this info about the origins of Punk Rock, surely you didn't know yet.

the primigenic sound of Punk developed in the early 60's by a peruvian rock band

Just to put things in context, I'm embedding another Los Saicos song, from the times where they sounded raw and punkish (this recording is from 1964).



My list (in no particular order):

Dead Kennedys - Give Me Convenience Or Give Me Death
Wingnut Dishwasher's Union - Burn the Earth, Leave it Behind
Refused - The Shape of Punk to Come
Flema - El Exceso &/O Abuso De Drogas & Alcohol Es Perjudicial Para Tu Salud ...
Misfits - Legacy Of Brutality

A special slot should be added for Saetia - A Retrospective, but I don't think it fits the punkish label.

Also embedding some Flema, since I guess most of you are unfamiliar with them.

I Do love the raw Sound and Grizzlyness of Los Saicos.

I could compare it to Iggy and the Stooges or MC5.

You got that right. Punk must sound raw for me too.

So hard to limit it to five and they probably change on a daily basis.

But for me I'd have to list the albums that had such an impact on me back in '76 and '77 and as such I guess there'll no great surprises.

Never Mind The Bollocks - The Sex Pistols.
The Clash - The Clash.
Damned, Damned, Damned - The Damned.
Rattus Norvegicus - The Stranglers.
Inflammable Material - Stiff Little Fingers.

The last album wasn't recorded until '79 but it had such a massive impact on me and my life.
I still listen to all these albums on a regular basis.

I've got to mention these great albums which are also still regular's on my turntable.

Teenage Warning - Angelic Upstarts.
The Good, The Bad & The 4-Skins - The 4-Skins.
Shock Troops - Cock Sparrer.
Punk's Not Dead - The Exploited.
Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables - The Dead Kennedy's.

There are so many other albums I still play on a regular basis - even some from newish and new Punk bands.

It would have been an absolute nightmare if I'd had to list my favourite five punk singles.

Hey there



I don't think Liliput ever produced an LP they are rather unknown, I think, or is there anyone who has heard of them? they are an all-girl punk band, I embed some of their singles rather than just list them, hope you don't mind

They hardly knew what they were doing, they did it anyway, they were different and that's what punk is all about and they had attitutde!

Love it, that was part of the punk culture. What Sid Vicious played the guitar for a month before the Sex Pistols.

From "Pictures of Starving Children Sell Records" (their first album in 1986) here's "one hit wonders" Chumbawumba with "Unilever".

Yes. that Chumbawumba.

Nice to see someone else appreciates them. They're the most talented all-girl Punk group of the late-'70s.

Definitely without a doubt, #1 off all time:

Death Sentence: Not a Pretty Sight
(The Death Sentence from Vancouver, BC not anywhere else!)

Here are some classics If you don't know about them, and like punk, you MUST find a copy of this record. I COMMAND IT!





Also... anything by the Dead Kennedys, because Jello Biarfa RULES... he's been a PITA to the man for decades and is still doing it now
