Ahhh Punk Rock

If your band has "anarchist" in the name then I recommend you listen to Crass, their first 6 albums at least. I also recommend Flux of Pink Indians, they arrived a bit late to the punk movement but they left their mark. Conflict are worth a listen, although I never really rated them. Rudimentary Peni are also worth a punt, Zounds (Their first album on Rough Trade is good) and Poison Girls have some good stuff too.

Anarcho-punk can get a bit preachy at times.

If you wanna broaden your horizons a bit, then I can't recommend Wire (especially Pink Flag) enough. These guys were making post-punk before punk had even died.

I've only listed British punk, but there's plenty of US stuff I could also list. I mostly listen to US 80s hardcore and thrash, Canada has an awesome hardcore scene as well.

I love punk

I haven't listened to any Anti-Flag, or any punk for a while..

And, being an old dude and all...Memory isn't always that great...LOL

I haven't smoked in quite a while...Not because I don't like it, but because I can't do drugs..Well, I drink, but that seems to be "OK" with the powers that be..

These days, I mainly listen to classic rock. Led Zep, Pink Floyd..etc..

But, since yesterday, broke out all my punk CD's...I'm having a good time..

Damn government. "Hey, lets keep a substance that kills brain cells and destroys your liver legal, but a substance that doesnt harm the brain and has very little lung damnage should be illegal!"
I like some classic rock. Beatles are my jam.

Haha good to hear :D

Yeah, I agree...Pot is way less damaging than booze...But, I don't make the rules...I wish I did..

And, let's face it, if ya don't like The Beatles, ya don't like music..And, it doesn't really matter what kind of music you're in to...Ya still have to love em'

And way more fun :) though i do like a drink here and there.

FuckinA. The Beatles are also a symbol of anti conformity and individualism. Aswell as just some of the best songs written in the history of rock

Anarchy signs, recently wrote "Take your economy back! Dont be a slave to Capital" on the side of a bank. Umm "Rise and unite for a true democracy" "No more oil wars" Oh! and one of my favs on the side of a recruiting station, "Tell me how the diploma goes for you when your dead (Circle and A)"

Florida.

I can agree with the points you are trying to make...

You say anarchy signs... Are they actually signs, or do ya tag?

I'm all for free expression, but, when I see a tagger, he usually has a bad day after meeting me.

Nothing personal...Just how I am...Besides, I live in California, not much chance of my catching ya...LOL

A with circle typically. My fav project (and the one i almost got thrown in cuffs for) was a huge black and red flag i did. What do you mean by tag? I usually have something to go along with the symbols.

I used to live there :D first time i ever vandalized XD

Maybe the term tagging isn't used everywhere..

Tagging is spray painting...Graffiti....You come to Southern California, it seems almost every wall has been tagged.
