Stiff Little Fingers Alternative Ulster. As my Dad was from Northern Ireland, so he didn’t mind me playing the song. It also made me want to find out about the Troubles and Ireland in general.
He didn’t approve of Nazi Punks Fuck Off by the Dead Kennedy’s as much though  |

Hong Kong Garden - Siouxie and the Banshees.
The Banshees were punk or post punk? Definitely post punk later... Same question I have about PiL, who were a much better band than the pistols. |

I guess it depends how you define punk - as an era or a sound or even a movement. There's also blurred lines between punk and new wave. Then you have bands that firmly started as punk but moved into other genres (The Jam being a prime example).
Personally I'd label Siouxsie as punk but can see how they may be considered post-punk, new wave or even goth to some. |

"Police and thieves the clash"
Awesome song although arguably reggae but that was the joy of punk, so many of the bands crossed boundaries/genres as they grew - The Clash were a good example, but Siouxsie, The Jam, The Undertones and more all did too |

Not just the music, but the way of making it, publishing it, selling it was all changed by the Punk era.
You could argue that the Indie scene and Ska labels would not have happened without that "breaking out of the system" that Punk enabled. |

Oh absolutely and that was the point I was trying to make further up about how you define "punk" and whether that was a music style, an era, an ethos - punk turned things on their head and allowed much of what followed to happen, in the same way as "rock and roll" had done twenty years or so earlier. |

Don't think The Specials could ever be defined as punk, although they certainly drew on it for influence of a large chunk of the first album.
The Coventry Automatics (that were to become The Specials) may have been though |

If you look at the singles chart (and to a lesser extent the album chart) then I'd agree - look beyond that and there are a lot of good bands out there making good music.

Agreed I think what I’m saying is that us as a people are unwittingly depriving ourselves of being ourselves because of pc and many other things and so we have lost our freedom of speech/song not by government but by us and that is so sad and that’s why there are so many fallouts on here or anywhere

Completely forgot about Warriors by Blitz. What a track. Get YouTubing if you've not heard it. Seems to get covered by so many people on YouTube. |

Saw Blitz in Stockport 1980ish ... more Oi than punk. Think they launched the Someone's gonna die tonight ep before the gig. |

I went to see SLF on 3 occasions, and would have loved to see them back in the days when U2 were their support! Last time I saw them was at the Glasgow SECC, when they supported the Pistols on their 'Filthy Lucre' tour. Bruce Foxton on bass for SLF..... |

It is called "A poets life" and a bit more softer ska/reggae punk but easy listening

In to Action would be a great track for the alarm ring tone. Great to get you up and motivated. Side effects may include constant infectious beat stuck in your head and random involentry dancing and/or movement. |

I tried to stick punk songs. But lot of the music I like is where punk, ska and reggae intersect. Oddly enough started with the fist ever album I bought, No Doubt, Tragic Kingdom. That was a defining album to me because it introduced be to new sounds and set me on a path to start exploring new (and old) bands like Rancid. Without broad band or friends with the same music tastes (always a misfit) finding new music I love was an epic quest of discovery. Because unless your music was on the mainstream media or you had freinds to introduce to new music you had to hunt it down your self. Thats why the mix tapes that certain record lables used to make were always critical to me and often how I found new bands. |

Like alot if stuff.
Punk was really cool and great until it suddenly got commercialised and went mainstream.
That said I feel punk had a far greater influence on music and culture than the establishment where willing to admit to at the time and in the years following.
Obviously the moment we all remember is the pistols being interviewed on TV and the interviewer being really patronising telling them to swear and Jonny Rotten basically going for it.
That ended the interviewers career and made the pistols ever more appealing to the"kid's"
But people forget how good a lot of the punk band's actually where musically.
Yes some of the lyrics questionable but lots very profound and spot on politically. |

Bill Grundy.... And was it siouxsie the groupie on as well.?
I lived through it... Bought the singles, albums, then CDs, then packed them in the loft never to see the light of day again... Then one afternoon about 4 years ago... They fell over... I wistfully looked at never mind the bollocks album and put it on... Now I was never the biggest pistols fan, preferring the clash or the jam... But it was like the Windows and doors were flung open and a ray of sunshine had been shone into my life... Such a refreshing, simple, energetic, passionate noise that I cranked it up and spent the weekend reacquainting myself... The perfect antidote to a lot of todays over produced, auto tuned, politically correct, produced to maximise revenue music we are fed at the moment. |

Seen them a few times but prefer the smaller gigs ... funny when they supported the Specials at the Apollo. A lot of the crowd didn't know what to make of them. I got the feeling that the 'mods' element of their nane was taken the wrong way ... Hebden Bridge was good as was the Academy when Evil Blizzard had the dolls head theramin out. Can't wait for gigs to drop next year. Have the Undertones, Pigs7 and Lebanon Hanover lined up but would welcome a few more |
