slc punk
What can I say? We weren't much more
than a couple of young punks.
To be an anarchist in Salt Lake City
was certainly no easy task...
And having no money, no job...
no plans for the future...
Oh, what the heck did we do here?
I think that wound's
the most infected thing I've ever seen.
I hate doctors man!
I hate 'em.
This may not be easy to hear,
but the hair.
Maybe tone it down a bit.
The whole thing that you're doing.
In my day, it was long hair,
beatniks, paisley.
You know. That stuff.
Not like that kind of thing.
This whole thing you're doing...
this statement about
the American Indian...
I'm baffled.
And not just me.
A regular guy in the street's
gonna be baffled too.
And we're hip, we're cool.
It's just those guys on the east coast
are never gonna get it.
I knew a girl who'd only have sex
with a guy if he had a fucking accent.
Can you think of anything
more ludicrous?
So every asshole
in Salt Lake City...
and let me tell you, plenty of assholes
in this general region...
that wanted to do some of this,
would get her drunk...
and put on some kind
of stupid accent...
like, "Hey, mistress,
do you fancy a shag?
And there she would...
fucking knees in the sky.
It was sad. It made me really sad.
Poor girl had no self-respect.
To me, England was nothing more
than a big American state...
like North Dakota or Canada.
You gotta look at me and say, "Hey,
why are you so mad?" And I'll tell you.
'Cause for all the fawning that
went over the English bands in S.L. C...
those fuckin' English chaps
could only say shit about us Americans.
All we were to them
was a bunch of hicks.
Well, you know what?
I'm not a fuckin' hick!
In a country of lost souls...
rebellion comes hard...
but in a religiously oppressive city...
which half its population
isn't even of that religion...
it comes like fire.
And as the night closed,
Mark decided to dump the stolen car.
You know, evidence.
Sink.
Sink, you fool!
Hey, why won't she sink?
Well, it's 'cause
it's the Great Salt Lake.
- And?
- Yeah, dude. There's salt in it.
It's, like,
the saltiest lake in the world.
- It makes things buoyant, you know?
- Buoyant. It floats.
You've gotta be kidding me.
Sink, you fool!
You fuckin' stupid
bastard lake! Sink!
Homo sapiens. A man.
He is alone in the universe.
A punker. Still a man.
He is alone in the universe.
But he connects. How?
They hit each other. Ooh!
No clearer way to evaluate
whether or not you're alive.
Now, complications.
A reason to fight:
Somebody different.
Difference creates dispute.
Dispute is a reason to fight.
Now, to fight is a reason to feel pain.
Life is pain.
So to fight, with reason...
is to be alive with reason.
Final analysis.
To fight: A reason to live.
Problems and contradictions:
I am an anarchist.
I believe that there should be
no rules, only chaos.
Fighting appears to be chaos, and when
we slam in a pit at a show, it is.
But when we fight for a reason,
like rednecks, there is a system.
We fight for what we stand for... chaos.
But fighting is a structure.
Fighting is to establish power,
power is government...
and government is not anarchy.
Government is war,
and war is fighting.
The circle goes like this:
Our redneck skirmishes...
are cheaper versions
of conventional warfare.
War implies extreme government...
because wars are fought to
enforce rules or ideals, even freedom.
But other people's ideals
forced on someone else...
even if it is something like freedom,
is still a rule.
Not anarchy.
This contradiction was becoming
clear to me in the fall of ' .
Even as early as my first party,
why did I love to fight?
I framed it,
but I still don't understand it.
It goes against my beliefs
as a true anarchist, but there it was.
Competition, fighting, capitalism...
government, the system.
It's what we always did.
Rednecks kicked the shit out of punks,
punks kicked the shit out of mods...
mods kicked the shit out of skinheads,
skinheads took out the metal guys...
the metal guys beat the living shit
out of new wavers...
and the new wavers did nothing...
they were the new hippies.
What was the point?
Final summation?
None.
Do you believe this guy?
He's going off to save the plants.
This guy was one of the most
hard-core sons of bitches I ever met...
and he's going off
to save the plants.
I remember this time
he was drunk...
and he got the idea in his head
that all the cars on his block...
would look better without windows.
Get down, bitch!
He took 'em all on.
They needed to call backup.
Finally they got him
in the back of a squad car.
The cops thought he was on angel dust...
"The only way you could do it."
Not so.
It was just Mike.
He broke those goddamn handcuffs,
kicked the window out of the car, drunk.
That's it.
Never got caught either.
Story was all over the papers.
It took weeks for us to get him to admit
that it was him that had done it.
Now he's going off to hug a tree.
I kind of knew it was the end.
All that was left was Bob and me.
First two punks.
The last two punks.

That movies ok expect depicting punks as people who like to beat the shit out of each other. And the part where he becomes a lawyer in the end. Lame.

Holy crap.
I'm not really as punk as yetiman.
But I think first off that the Minutemen #1 in my book.
Not really punk more rock n roll incarnation of aboveformentioned.The cover songs on this album rule.BOC,PE,Butthole Surfers fugn sweet.
Were gonna have a TV party tonite, ALLRIGHT!
We got nothing better to do than to watch TV and have a couple of brew.
SST yo! Rik Okasek got em started and Greg Ghin pointed them the right direction.
Its still a static age.IMO
Out of Step
I was so dissapointed when they went from speed metal to heavy metal with that join the army crap.The name the image the whole flipped up hat thing.
I'll go back to lurking now.

We park our cars in the same garage, Throttle Jockey. If I didn't know better, I'd say you were in my CD case.

It's GINN, and actually he started it. But yes on the other fronts.
And SLC Punk is a great movie. The fact that he becomes a lawyer at the end is the whole point of the movie. I think the point was that he was never punk for the right reasons to begin with. And the punks I hung with around the time that movie is supposed to take place did like to beat the shit out of each other.Last edited by SponsoredByDuctTape; 03-20-2007 at 12:03 AM.

Speaking of SLC punk... Anybody ever get into Moral Suckling? They were on the MPLS label Profane Existance. From the early 90s. Good stuff.

Here goes my list...
Clash, Sex Pistols, Dead Kennedys, The Casualties, Unseen, Pennywise, Rancid, Millencolin, Op Ivy, Bad Religion, Choking Victim, InDK, Leftover Crack. (CV, and LoC are very big pump up bands) Ignite, Bouncing Souls, NoFX, Earlier AFI.
I'm forgetting tons by not having a playlist in front of me.
Can we get a favorite rap/hiphop thread?

No. Nice band list, since none of them have been mentioned in the prior 6 pages...
On a sadder note, RIP to Brent Liles, former bassist for Social D and Agent Orange. He was killed back in January when a tractor trailer hit him while riding his bicycle.

Not punk, but Tim Armstrong's new album is pretty good.
If there was a thread about people from punk bands putting out reggae-ish albums, I would have posted this there. But, there's not, so I didn't.

huh? all of their songs are reggae influenced.
I'm stuck in the past. I don't really listen to much "modern punk"
what's in my ipod now:
Dead Kennedys
Suicidal Tendencies
Misfits
Black Flag
Rollins Band
Sex Pistols (live album much better than the overproduced stuff you usually hear)
Rancid
Offspring (first album)
Danzig
Butthole Surfers
Mojo Nixon (not punk but I have a great album he did with Jello Biafra)
Social Distortion
Plus a couple of random tracks from some old Texas punk bands that nobody ever heard of...but wost of them were my buddies in high school
