“Punk” music with a deliberately conservative message on how to live your life within the boundaries of polite society is about as appealing and exciting as Christian Rock. To be frank, the genres are basically interchangeable.

The music may be driving and decent, though usually heavily derivative , but any genuine like-ability is neutralised by the preachy undertones. Punk is rebellious. That’s the whole point. If you’re getting rave reviews in The Guardian you’re about as antiestablishment as Diet Pepsi.

Maybe someone should post some Guy Sebastian. The sweet little hillsong graduate.

wait a minute...if punk is about rebellion. then the punk thing to do is rebel against be rebellious, right? that's why rave was the inheritor of punk, not latter bands playing punk-style music.

Yep. That’s why any music post the 80s which claims to be punk is lying. There’s been plenty of rebellious music since True Punk but none of it is punk music.

When you’ve got pretenders whining about Brexit and calling themselves punk, as is the case above, it’s nothing if not funny.
I hear the initial rave scene was pretty wild.

Hey Chook I really liked the tune above, thank you.

So after a very funny Scomo meme, I asked the kids about the origin (as it belongs to them and their gen and I am Old) - and I just can't get it out of my head or out of my eyes. Love it. Got a real 'Fin de siècle' feel to the track.

So here's an edit of the tune to soothe the brain, and after, some undiluted visual friskiness of the memes to melt it at the same time:

Fuck, kids these days are so weird! :)

Yep it's different. DSDS above talking about punk being rebellious - well one observation I have is that kids 2010-20 made very different music their own in many fragmentations, and expressed it far more quietly. An electronic underground if you will, as we had the underground scene through 80's/90s. I will spare linking you an hour of Cat LoFi.

Edit: last link above, the dude being tasered at 7:05 lol

Happy Friday.

Very much looking forward to The Bronx.

When are you seeing them Ben?

chook, can Gary G and me be in the next video

Blackers now were talking...

This is in my piss up/bender playlist ( back when I was a young rascal) and I still love hammering it the car when ever I think of it.
You ever see them live?

Almost as good as it gets

No offence Con but your opinion doesnt carry much weight with me, Yew!

Try not to be a music nazi, everyone likes different shit, Yew! again!

Ya seen Cog live?

Each to their own, I’m sticking to my theme.

100% agree Punk and the attitude of punk was really only a thing in it's very early days when its was actually going against the grain but its quickly become the exact opposite of what it was rebelling against and quickly became extremely conformist, had to sound this way, look this way, act this way, and even worse think a certain way.

It was an important movement though most of the best bands have roots in punk and hardcore, and the rest roots in blues.

I wrote these guys off at the time as i was too cool for anything too popular back then, but going back and re listening to bands for streaming mixes, I've come to appreciate some of their stuff, it's aged quick well.

Bush though, sorry still heavy pass on them.

keep driving blacker

who's who at the polling booth?

Is the beach a place?
Good time lapse video.

Good remix.

Very funny rant from John Lydon

no mention of The Saints and others of course....these guys are so insular in their world view

You betcha.

Sadly departed.

Back on track with Blackers. Maybe a nod to the other discussion about punk. What do you reckon? Clash - punk, rock or reggae? .......and who cares anyway? It's like arguing who's more core in the surf.

It's a saturday arvo in with the footy on..... for all of the vicco's

Got no problems, got no wars
And you don't need your brain no more
In Orstralia

Sweet. Speaking of the footy, did anyone catch the welcome to country at the Cats Port match? Astounding didg playing, trying to track it down.
Anyways, a bit of levity from my yoof.

Saw the didge, but sadly didn't pay much attention. Seven Plus replay?

Here's a shameless plug for G Town. MentalBen is an awesome artist too. You might recognise his work.

Cheers icandig, I heard it on the radio broadcast of the game on the way back from the beach, well worth a listen. Norm Stanley was the player. Warped finished for good? Sad days.

Didn't want to corrupt the the election thread...
