Unlike most punk lifers, they've always yukked it up, accepted outsiders, and thought about their feelings. So I was pleased rather than surprised to learn that they'd made their politics explicit. Their attacks on religion and hater hating are right on, and why shouldn't the guy who reads Zinn and Chomsky and then votes Nader be confused? Concomitantly, I was disappointed rather than surprised to find that the songs about their personal world are deeper than those about our political one. So I'm glad quadriplegic Nubs gets her impolitic two minutes. And my hopes for all humanity leap when a boy and girl fall in love over the vinyl they both own. A-
>>130051414I love this album and I love the cover. It is the total opposite of timeless, it is so early 2000s and absolutely nothing else.
>>130051414This band was always garbage.
>>130051435Everything through coaster is good to great.

>>130051452Punk was originally just anti-establishment, anti-conformity and actually was a grassroots thing. Gays were not associated with the punk scene at all. Globohomo co-opted it, re-branded it, and sold it as a product, like pop punk. In the 70s faggots weren't involved with it at all, and neither was capitalism.
>>130051654they're a historically outsider group that was attracted to the punk ethos and couldn't be Chad rock stars
>>130051719That lasted about a year and a half. After that, it just became anti-Western civilization.
Don't ever read Fat Mike's interviews. It's nothing but him talking about getting fucked in the ass while high on drugs.
>>130051791I think it was the reverse. It started out in the early to mid 70s as a NYC art scene/glam thing with Jews and homos spearheading it; in the late 70s/early 80s white, suburban teens sort of appropriated punk and you started seeing right wing/libertarian tough guy punk groups that were a reaction against the earlier, cosmopolitan incarnation of punk.
Read Fat Mike's interviews. They're unintentionally hilarious. He talks about filming sex tapes of him being fucked in the ass while high on drugs and how he'd totally make mad bank when he'd eventually release them. And then he never released them.

>>130052727They re-released it recently with Donny's picture instead of the Bush one. Maybe Anon was confused?
