I've never been especially interested in this stuff, 'cos what I've heard just features really speedy tuneless riffs and the sound of a 'hard man' at the front, throwing up.

those first Dickies albums are a lot of fun too. is it punk? I don't care - they're fun records and they would have conquered FM radio if the world was fair.

If anyone looked like they were copying Ronald MacDonald, it was those early London punks.
Talk about clown suits.

a year or so later we showed "the decline of western civilization". leaving aside historical concerns this was by far the better film. this was my first exposure to more than a few west coast punks at a time. they dressed the same, they took the same drugs, they looked like they could have been stamped out of a machine. they reminded me of army recruits or chollos. I really liked a good chunk of our "west coast punk" but never warmed to the punks themselves. spitting and cussing at anybody who's handy strikes me as a different sort of thing than spitting and cussing at people who piss you off. maybe I pissed them off. "would you like butter on your popcorn?" SPIT!!!
