@mclaincausey I only saw the Spanish version free on YT just FYI but it was free (with ads) in Prime which is where I ended up watching it. Great documentary, it helped me understand different versions of the band, members, Descendents Vs. ALL and the fact that Bill was the leader. I didn't know shit! I thought Milo was the leader of the band. Bill wrote those songs! And many of the Black Flag songs. So sick. I had no idea. 1000% recommend this doc to anyone even remotely interested in punk rock and the Descendents.

@Oaktavia yeah man he played on MY War which I just caught the commemorative 40 year anniversary Black Flag tour on too. Legend. Got to see All twice. Great stuff.
-
@mclaincausey that's ALLsome...heh. sorry.
Descendents come to Silver Spring in September with Circle Jerks...if only driving to DC area wasn't such a nightmare.

@mclaincausey said in Music: Metal/Punk Rock:
@Oaktavia that’s a dream scenario! Other than the drive of course.
Just bought tickets to see them on Sept. 6 woo woo!

Here is a link to a NOFX final tour mix from recent shows. I have not listened to it yet, just made the mix from a download. Fair warning I hear the songs aren't that great. A Redditor shared the downloads with me after saying their performances were not too awesome but I wanted to download and listen myself. I'll be playing it them throughout the day today, there are 71 tracks. I will remain optimistic as NOFX is not usually held in a high regard in that respect, it sort of makes them who they are.
Edit: is it working on the playlist? If not, try this to download.

@tody I love that live album, I have the vinyl! But yeah, not so much recently?
-
@Oaktavia I saw them three times last year, twice Barcelona and a club show in Amsterdam.
Barcelona was great, there are some youtube videos from that show. You could see that they were eager to play (and the weather was great).
Amsterdam was already bad, because Fat Mike had totally lost his voice. A decent club show nonetheless.
But on sunday, they seemed tired and dull, just doing the absolute minimum... Well, at least I heard Linoleum for a final time! -
@tody oh wow, thanks for sharing the info...so not so so bad, but not great it seems.
-
@tody yeesh yeah that is too much. I bought tickets to see them in Baltimore a year or so ago and I think they were around fifty bucks. My wife even paid for a hotel for me to stay in near the outdoor park/venue so I could drink freely and not drive home. NOFX cancelled that show and blamed the city LMAO. So whatever guys, we get it 40 years is a long time to suck.

Not a band that I’m especially aware of from back in the day, but I do like this new track.

A beautiful brief history of Fugazi
-
@RobeOfTheMagi cheers for this, have a train trip tonight and I’m going to download and check this out.
-
My pleasure
! -
@RobeOfTheMagi cool! Never forgive the 15 year old me for not seeing Fugazi in London (at what turned out to be their last show), opting instead to chill with my new girlfriend who wasn’t into punk.
And they did, at least in Cologne last Sunday.
