Back in my BMX day's I used to have that album at the ready for whenever I had to ride anywhere fast.

I still maintain the best Rancid related album is Lars Frekriksen and the bastard's album Viking.

Their first album was better than Viking IMO

For real, the first album has the great Billy Bragg cover and the weirdness of 10 Plagues of Egypt and some good sentimental punk memories. Viking has that song about stabbing and didn't the cover have like Asian hookers on it?

get that OUT of my face

Bad Religion's newer stuff is OK. Process of Belief was fuckin awesome though, and the last few have just been kinda generic, but at least they're not offensively terrible like that loving Green Day album where they have a song that uses the riff from Full House in it
yeah their newer stuff is good enough for me to keep listening to them without feeling ashamed, even though Process was their last really good album

Flogging Molly uses a wide range of instruments, and their music has a lot more Celtic influence beyond "punk band with bagpipes". They are musically superior to the Dropkick Murphys. But both are fun to listen to.

Do or Die and Sing Loud, Sing Proud were so awesome when I was in high school


Then I moved to Boston and my god they are loving EVERYWHERE

I'm not even talking about that stupid Shipping Up to Boston song either, everywhere you go people are just loving apeshit about them. They're like the Che Guevara t-shirt of punk rock around here.

If you want to obsess over a good Boston punk band listen to the Ducky Boys or Dead Cats, Dead Rats or something, christ.

I saw Strung Out at a skating rink. Like 20 people showed. Loved living in a small punk rock town. There was always decent bands playing small gigs. Strung Out used to not give a gently caress, they would play anywhere. But then again this was a billion thousand years ago because I'm old.

lol at everyone calling all these lovely guitar-pop bands "punk"
That includes Choking Victim and Leftover Cack

Fat Mike is routinely rude and unpleasant to his fans though, so I suppose that's kind of cool.

Also, the Dropkick Murphys are the most laughably bad and hackneyed plastic paddy band after house of pain. Celtic punk is for Germans anyway. They love that poo poo there.

Most hardcore 80's stuff is fuckin awesome

also a lot of early 90's stuff like SNFU, eaaaaarly AFI, the first two Lagwagon albums, and other such stuff are cool too.

basically these bands should stop after like 2 or so albums when they lose all the aggression and dynamic feeling and learn how to play their guitars

I don't think The Buzzcocks count as pop punk unless The Clash also count as pop punk, which would be pretty lol if you actually think that.

Oh poo poo, this thread like punk aint dead (just kidding punks dead)

My friend who knows all the punk stuff recently brought up Cock Sparrer's "Shock Troops" and now it's becoming apparent that all punk was a sham (and that I kinda don't like early 80's punk)
