Unpopular opinions

No one actually “Likes” Iggy Pop, though [emoji16]

And Sid never actually played live with the Pistols. On stage, yes, but had his instrument amplified, I don’t think.

In Johnny’s book, he claimed they never plugged in his bass because he was so bloody terrible.

Which became apparent during his worthless stint as a soloist.

F@ck Iggy, I’m talking about The Stooges. (Also only the first two albums, they screwed the pooch with Raw Power. Which is probs an unpop op in itself).

If you want pre ‘77 punk without Iggy and with keyboard then Suicide is there for you.

My problem with Punk as a whole is that, being musically Trained, I would rather listen to something that actually sounds good, rather than just being progressive. I love the sentiment and most of the riffs, as well as the lyrics, but sadly, most of the 60-late 80s stuff sounded so terrible on record I can’t stand to listen to it, no matter how “good” or “ground breaking” it was.

Minor Threat was kind of the first album I actually connected with as a teen. The others I just liked because of their impact.

The thing with proto punk, punk and post punk for me is that it throws up some of the absolute best music. Ironically, in the case of HD this is also pop music dressed up as punk. I love those guys.

I’ll have to throw on some older punk music while I work this evening [emoji108]

I did say it’s basically pop music [emoji1] Luckily for me I was at my fair share of Conflict, Crass and RDF concerts back in the day.

??? Now I'm just completely in awe (and jealous)

You want to be really jealous?

I saw The Chainsmokers in concert.

Boom.

Had to look that up… Just as I had to look up Avicci (or w/e his name was) when his death was breaking news...

I can tell you all about how good the new VOMITOR is though

Same.  My daughter told me he passed I said who's that?  She told me, to which I replied "oh yeah?  Well Barbara Bush died this week too".  To which she replied, "who's that?".  ???

Kids these days…
