FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK.

I find this thread odd because all my punk friends really, really hate emo and hardcore. And then the tiny bit of emo and hardcore kids I've talked to all say they hate punk. I'm confused.

Woo! Good news from the pop-punk front for once.

Teenage Bottlerocket loving rules and they deserve all the attention and money they can get. And as much as I dislike Fat Mike, he treats the bands on his label really well, and I respect him for it.

Yeah I think getting off of Red Scare is going to be good for them

Toby was a rad guy and supported them like crazy but getting on a bigger label is going to give them a push that they would never have gotten just rolling with all the pop-punk bands

I decided to revisit this thread, I have spent this morning listening to the Macc Lads. Definition of 'guilty pleasure', along with One Life Crew.

Listen here, Macc Lads are not a guilty pleasure they are a genuine pleasure. Wish I could see them live.

I look forward to the summer of noise and pain.. I got the Homopolice booked to play here but due to a bunch of PC assholes it fell through. Do have a small 2-day "fest" booked in Chicago, April 11 and 12. I'll fill in details this weekend when its 99% concrete, I know its last minute but its a free 2 day show. Definitely flying in Spectres from Vancouver which I'm happy about (lovely friends and lovely music), Born Bad, Brain Handle, The State, +++..

I'm really sad about this, I think these guys could've been part of a new trinity of kick-rear end pop punk

Like the 90s had the Queers, Weasel, and MTX, we would've had the Steinways, the Ergs, and someone else maybe the Unlovables

While Lemuria is maybe the greatest (Get Better wasn't as good as their other stuff) they definitely don't fit in with that pop-punk trifecta.

And yes The Unlovables would definitely make up the third part.

Also Gorilla Marketing is better than Missed the Boat in my opinion but does anyone know if their Art of the Underground 7" is any good? I have it but I don't have a loving 45 adapter because I'm an idiot.

Gorilla Marketing is awesome but I love Missed the Boat

You just hit that first chord to Diogo and it's Grath singing about being broke and smoking pot and the whole album becomes a thing of beauty

But I Think Your Nice and Dear Girl are probably my two favorite tracks off that album just because it's a perfect lead-in to a kick-rear end song

Missed the Boat loses my interest with Everybody Loves Raymond, Tangled up in Teenagers, and onlyundiesclub.com but everything else on the album is perfect.

On the other hand I feel like every single track on Gorilla Marketing has at least one super-standout moment.

The Unoriginal Recipe EP is really good too, especially Main Street, Flushing, USA.

Pissed I will never see this band live now.

Edit: Does anyone know where I can get anything by Nancy? They were on that NJ vs NY pop-punk compilation but I'm having trouble finding anything by them due to their generic name.

Also look for the God Save The Queers comp sometime

It's what it sounds like: A Queers tribute album with all kinds of bands

Opens with the Dwarves playing the melody to Love Me with the one dude yelling about how awesome Joe is

the highlights are Steinways doing Debra Jean and I Didn't Get Invited To The Prom (together) at their usual breakneck pace, Unlovables doing gently caress The World and making it super sugary sweet, and the Femurs doing I Wanna Be Happy on acoustic

The Homopolice are one of my favorite new bands. Where do you live where people who are too PC didn't want them to play? That's a shame, since the singer stopped being in Insect Warfare due to most of the grind scene being a tad homophobic, ha.

and the new final fight record loving sucks. I think under attack might be one of my favorites but this new one is just them trying to sound as much like killing the dream as they can, without actually playing anything good. I really don't understand what happened, they went from being one of the catchiest, funnest hardcore bands around to just sounding super generic.

No. No no no no no loving way.

I didn't go to the Providence show because I am broke as gently caress and rationalized it by saying "They're from New England, it's not like they'll never play up here again!"

:argh:

EDIT: Wait are you saying then didn't play that show at AS220?

I agree it's not as good Under Attack, I wouldn't say it's as bad as you're making it out to be.

Wasn't there an edge band for whom a member broke edge at their record release show and the band subsequently had a massive argument and broke up then and there and never played the show?

The idiot in question in my story loves Limp Wrist. It didn't solve anything, although the band is great.

The issue is punk and hardcore never allowing other cultures to compete with its historical image, which is anything but gay friendly. I had a really interesting discussion with Marc Ruvolo from No Empathy about being a gay punk in Chicago, stories about him and Martin Sorrondeguy and other folks getting stuff thrown at them at punk shows by punks. He's really jaded about the entire Chicago scene and rightfully so. Midwest is a really conservative area.
