Punk Rock.

[owequitit]

Actually, Sublime is more reggae than anything else. Brad Nowell was one hell of a reggae musician.

I have to agree with Streetlight Manifesto. I just listened to them today 3rd wave ska is pretty much punk with horns. That being said, Less Than Jake is amazing... well, their older stuff. Even THEY are embarrassed by the newer record!



And punk is not dead. It just grew up Rather than being dirty, obnoxious, uneducated idiots, the real punks now all seem to have college degrees. Dexter from the Offspring has a Masters in Molecular Biology, and was a candidate for a PhD before he decided to pass on that and concentrate on the band (good move on his part!). Milo Aukerman from the Descendents has a PhD in biochemistry. Joe Escalante of the Vandals (and founder of Kung Fu Records) is an entertainment lawyer. Even my own band is comprised of 3 college graduates (well, my drummer will be done this spring).

That reminds me of SLC Punk.

In trying to beat the institution, you become the institution. Sort of like Hackers in many cases.

The irony is thick.

Crime in Stereo and Latterman really fit the bill, and havent been mentioned yet.

Thursday, Say Anything, Saves the Day, and Brand New are some of my personal favorites that are similar to what youre looking for, but havent been mentioned yet.

I guess everyones gotta grow up sometime

I like the older more hardcore ones like Social D, Bad Religion etc.

Of course, as of late, I have tempered my enjoyment of them due to the fact that they are blatantly and ridiculously biased politically. They always have been, and I have nothing against rocking against the system. But they really aren't rocking against the system. They are rocking against HALF the system.

Social D is gaaaarrbbaaggeee

Dead Boys......Bad Brains................Chocking Victim/Leftover Crack........Minor Threat and of course Black Flag

These are hardcore..............dead boys and B.B. are old school.
