I was sitting in the TV room at uni watching TOTP when it came on. The room filled with laughter, partly because we had a mate called Harry but mainly because it was so dire.
Motorhead's thrash metal sound owes a lot to punk. A good list of punk bands there. I always enjoyed Crossing the Red Sea with The Adverts. Very punk imo.
Remember If you're in a rut you need to get out of it, out of it...............out if it.
I like some of piL's output, notably Rise, but The Cowboy Song is probably the worst track ever released (B side of The Public Image) and Death to Disco is not far behind. i think young Mr Lydon deliberately released utter dogshit now and again just for attentio,n.
The first Clash album is pure punk, Give 'em enough rope has some punk, London Calling has left punk in the rear view mirror. I've never listened to Sandanista.
