Favorite 80's Punk band

[Cosmic Harmony]

I think Bad Religion's "No Control" album is one of the best punk releases of the 80's. Stronger musicality than most punk bands of the day and a very strong lyrical structure which is to me the most important thing in punk rock.

^^^ Cool stuff...listening now

 

[Cosmic Harmony]

Cool beans. Lemme know what you think.

They don't sound like any other band either
They definitely have a one of a kind sound, voice, guitar tones, as Cosmic mentioned, the lyrical structure.. it doesn't really matter what they say but the way they put the words together is brilliant, a lot of unoriginal punk bands out there.. these guys definitely aren't one

One of my favorites.. Not exactly 80s, but it's a great song

 

[Cosmic Harmony]

That's a great one Eberg. It's one of my favorite by them too. I absolutely love the chorus.

 

[METALPRIEST]

Agreed!!

No Harmony I've always liked them..I was just listening for enjoyment. Enjoying the weekend.

Oh well in that case you might want to check out the thread I wrote up for them since it's gone almost unnoticed for the last 6 months. http://www.classicrockforums.com/forum/f47/bad-religion-most-important-punk-band-30-years-5584/


EDIT: Well nevermind, I see you already have.

Another of my favorite 80s punk bands.. possibly my favorite that's main period that was during the 80s... Social Distortion



Cool Video too




A very cool performance, with Springsteen

I like Social Distortion too Eberg, though I think their later albums are better than the two they put out in the 80's. Still, "Mommy's Little Monster" is a classic 80's punk song.
