          So the question is, are they overrated and really one of the best HC bands ever?

            One of the first shows I saw was SOIA, Ensign and Indecision… Still a classic night in my life.

            Say what you want about SOIA, but every time I saw them I had a blast and sang and moshed like crazy.

              Overrated? Yes. Important? Yes. Maybe depends on wether you like NYHC or not. I personally am not the biggest fan of Lou Koller's voice, tbh.

                i gotta say they lost me after just look around.  Generally speaking i'm not a huge fan of nyhc.  i feel like there were about 4 or 5 bands that were truly great and about a hundred who just sorta rode coat tails.

                      Kraut, wasn't expecting that one.  Always thought of them more in the punk vein.  I'd say BB is DC/NYC.  So basically nothing past '86?

                        for me yes.    there were other bands that i liked, but none of them had the staying power like these bands and everything that came after them seemed to borrow from them very liberally.

                        and its highly debateable but i would even include sonic youth in there.

                          ^Agnostic Front (early) and Cro Mags are well chosen for NYHC, IMO. The point is, many "average" rock or metal fans think of SOIA as the typical hc band. I don't, to me the BAd Brains, Minor Threat, Adolescents, Black Flag, Middle Class, 7 Seconds, MDC (and german: Spermbirds and Inferno) and so on are "typical". SOIA come far beyond that.

                              Thread has fallen to the third page, that's unacceptable.

                              One of the most underrated bands & albums of that time, in my opinion.

                                  i was taken aback when i first played that album… kinda like _whoa wait what? this is what ceremony is doing now?

                                  cool._

                                  as much as i like the 45-second mosh fodder stuff, they're really starting to hit their stride now

                                    i think the new record is by far their best.  i could appreciate the other records for what they were but never found myself wanting to listen to them, but this record is honestly really interesting and i keep coming back to it.

                                      Most probably nothing special to you guys, but I was honored to shake Roger Mirets hand after the show. There were just a few people who were in the mood to move their asses, and I was one of them.
