FIRST TIME LISTENING TO PUNK ROCK 🤘 Sex Pistols, Misfits, Dead Kennedys, Buzzcocks, X-Ray Spex 

Bad Brains, a reggae band that played punk for fun. Big Takeover probably.

Kira , you need to check out The Meatmen God's Bullies and The Lesbian Death Dirge. The lyrics of both songs are freaking great.

Of course [except for the Buzzcocks choice], I would have chosen different tracks, but you get the general idea, and I'm glad you're doing this.

Great Stuff 🤘 If your lookin' into checking out other 'Woman in Punk' you could check-out -- Siouxsie And The Banshees - Hong Kong Garden & Bow Wow Wow - Go Wild In The Country & Patti Smith - Horses Patti Smith - Piss Factory (1974) Patti Smith - Summer Cannibals (1996) 🙏 Patti Smith is the 'Godmother Of Punk Rock' You really need to give Dead Kennedys another listen -- Dead Kennedys - California Über Alles and / or Dead Kennedys - Holliday In Cambodia Don't think it matters much which song you listen to first, I reckon you will wanna hear the other one afterwards soon as... If ya wanna delve deeper into the origins of Punk Rock your could check-out -- The Sonics - Psycho (1964) & The MC5's - The American Ruse (1970) & Iggy And The Stooges - Search And Distroy (1973) I use to have "What do I Get" recorded on to a Cassette Tape from the Radio, and I used to think the song said 'We're too arrogant, oh-oh, we're too arrogant..." Another Punk Rock band maybe worth checking out would be -- Stiff Little Fingers - Suspect Device and / or Stiff Little Fingers - Alternative Ulster Finally I highly recommend checking -- Fugazi - Waiting Room (Live) Kinda need to check out the 'Live Version', the perfect example of how people react to music ! .

Fugazi - Waiting Room Check the live version uploaded by ~ grazy321 This live version is the perfect example of how people react to music !!! Just type into The RU-vid, should be able to find easily enough✌ 🤘

And Pete Shelley

Punk and Gaming ? That is like OPPOSITE Cultures lol

Also darker 😉

And chemical warfare and lynch the landlord

Cesspools in Eden

She’s probably not playing it because of the Nword. But it’s a really good song

@@rawrmmmxd3247 I didn't realize it had the n word in it 😕

Misfits totally deserve a whole video reacting to these songs, can't wait to see Kira's reaction to last caress lyrics ;)

@@anzebenko1768 i think she should've listened to the Static Age version of Teenagers From Mars

I think she must listen Horror Business , Dig up her bones , Skulls(yeah) , Halloween , Some kinda Hate

@Rafael The version of Teenagers From Mars that I first heard and became the "definitive" version for me was from Collection 1, which I think is this version in her video. The Static Age version is more polished, but slightly too even-tempo to my ears. I love the rawness more of the Collection version.

@@user-rq9ex6qs9d oh god can we not bring post-Danzig Misfits into this? Astro Zombies is an essential.

I can kinda hear that, actually.

I've always felt the same way about SOAD - the metal offspring of DK

I would've picked any song but the overplayed Holidays In Cambodja.

@@module79l28 yeah Chemical Warfare is the one I reckon

Too Drunk To Fuck 😂

I agree 100%.

There's also the excellent Shot by Both Sides by Magazine, the band Devoto and Shelley started after the Buzzcocks disbanded.

@@radicaladz not to pick holes but Magazine was formed by Devoto. Pete Shelley stayed with Buzzcocks and became the main singer. One could argue they did share the writing of the riff Shot by both Sides however as the same riff is used on Lipstick b side to Promises by Buzzcocks. Magazine good shout out though. John Mc geogh was a phenomenal guitarist especially in the post punk vein

@@TheFairway8 JM was always my favourite banshees guitarist, Magazine track I love the best has to be The Light Pours Out of Me

Yes she was! She’s amazing

For sure! Insight one of my favs

Yes I recommend more DK because they're so provocative but also Educational! The singer named himself Biafra, which was a locale of a massacre that most people (including me) don't know about. I saw him speak about the corrupt evil system for 5 hours once! Which is too long but I am a seeker of knowledge and the US media fills us with disinformation. Biafra is a great American educator!

some of the non-super-political songs were penned by short lived second guitarist 6025. Possibly "Kill" but definitely "Forward to Death" "Insight" "Stealing Peoples Mail" or "Funland at the Beach"

Holiday in Cambodia is sheer brilliance

IIRC "Stealing People's Mail" was written about the FBI intercepting Jello Biafra's mail due to his political views. That may still qualify as stupid kids.

glad you enjoyed them!

Their album Germ Free Adolescents is a classic. The lead singer Poly Styrene has a voice to just belts out power. Check out The Day the World Turned Dayglo.

Love that song from the first second when I bought it in the late seventies.

@@jediciah37 her solo album from 1980, Translucent, is criminally under appreciated. She had a beautiful voice as well as being a powerhouse of punk.

Polystrene and X-Ray Spex were a class above the rest of the bands here. So under rated.

Cliche and Poser are real gems

Identity is a fucking bop, too. That whole album is a monster.

my dad's best friend apparently loves the whole album! never knew!!

@@kirawasareactor It's got some real riot grrl vibes to it. Love them.

@revjim123 You wont be disappointed!

@@Kerbalf pfftt Riot girl was 15 years to late!

I saw them back in 78 in Birmingham, at the Odeon

Dickies are so fun! Great songs, and my fave is actually their cover of the Human Beinz version of Nobody Like Me :)

Yes, definitely anything off of Blank Generation by Richard Hell and the Voidoids

@@buzzbomb67 sheesh. They cut deep and off with their covers in the best way.

@@seandail1879 definitely … nothin wrong with doing the popular stuff but more often than not, many of the deep cuts are better anyway lol

The Hannah Barbera of punk rock

Totally agree. The Descendents are the best!

Blimey! I thought I was the only person to have ever liked Crass? I had Nagasaki Nightmare on 12", (still do), and it/I drove my mates mad?

They were really good and should be more well known

Completely agree.

And without The Ramones, there would’ve been no Buzzcocks…

legit how did they pull that off so perfectly?

Listen to The Sonics for some punk with sax

Barbwire love!!

You need to check out Viagra Boys!!!! incredible modern punk with horns.

Not really. Royalism made you a moron.

@@bjhellstream the lyrics a pretty self explanatory, how anybody gets it wrong is beyond me.

HAHAHAHAHAAHAH legit i ask myself this question every DAMN DAY

Thats great list of bands and songs!

Good play list that. 😊

legit i've never liked pop punk either really.. i try. especially growing up in the 2000s. but punk just does everything right everytime!

Snap I was too. 😊

Well... I like them too, but that might be a bit too much. :')

@@feministadentata4041 what the girls reaction? Of course

@@jaimemrv385 Nah, that the Pistols are the best punk rock band that ever existed. There are better ones and the Pistols were like a boyband in how they were formed.

The Pistols are posers. And Johnny Rotten is a sellout. However, the Pistols are one of the most influential bands to the Punk genre. So they deserve credit for that. But they’re nowhere near the best punk band ever.

@@starlesseyes5713 clearly u dont know anything about the pistols because they were born to fighr poser and a stupid regime in england back then, and the fact u say Jonhnny Rotten is a sellout is because u dont know a damm thing about him. He wasnt the biggest rock singer ever due to the fact he isnt a sellout

one of my favourite song intros ever now hahah

I wanna be well, is on my list of songs to be played at my funeral!

I second checking out Public Image, I know you're into post punk stuff and I think that's Johnny's better and more interesting band. Pistols were fine but Johnny was REALLY itching to play something weirder

PIL is great (specially the early stuf) but is not for everybody.

Yes! Listen to Public Image Limited (PiL). 'This Is Not A Love Song' is a great introductory song. Saw PiL live in mid eighties (88 probably).

I would go with Holiday in Cambodia. I just love the intro to that one.

My fave DK song was always Drug Me. If Kira thought God Save The Queen was fast, that one would blow her mind!

This Could Be Anywhere is pretty dark. Government Flu has a somewhat menacing tone to it too but I'd say a majority of their "darker" sounding stuff is on Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables

I kill Children or Stealing Peoples Mail or the two songs off that album that have always done it for me ever since I was little

Honestly, DK is all about juxtaposition, dark lyrics, over like surf, and western movies. I really don't think they're dark musically at all. I mean, of course there are things like I am The Owl, or Soup is Good Food.

Saints, right on!!

The singles were nothing compared to the album The Scream. The guitar playing once heard would never be forgotten.

CODE BLUE!

I love X, nice choice

Yes, Dead Milkmen FTW! Methodist Colouring Book is my favourite song of theirs

@@FreakinSweet86 I have too many favorites from them, but I was raised in the Methodist church, so that one is hilarious to me!

@@FreakinSweet86 I've always been partial to Dean's Dream

Some Rancid would be great -- LA River, St. Mary, Motorcycle Ride....

@@BradMurray oh man... I don't hink those songs really represent Rancid fairly; maybe Motorcycle Ride. It would have to be Time Bomb, Fall Back Down, Poison, Roots Radicals... etc.

TSOL, Agent Orange,

Rancid and their $70 tickets are garbage. You want real current punk, Hank Wood and the Hammerheads, Tyvek. Real deal. poppier stuff Marked Men, Radioactivity, thee Oh Sees, Jay Reatard Rancid, Inc. not so much...

and the Bad Brains!!

yes let's gooooo!!!

@@kirawasareactor let's gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!

You might like “police truck” from the dead Kennedy’s. It’s got a darker tone. It’s about police officers going to accost people and beat them up while drinking on the job.
