Poison Idea - Pick Your King (1983) Full EP 

Couldn't agree more. I have such a soft spot for this bit of plastic. I was completely blown away the first time I heard it.

It's a bit formulaic but very clean hardcore without the noise. Add Fear and SOA to this list. Lee Ving from Fear has a clear and concise vocal quality. To me, that's purity. Listen to "I Don't Care About You (Fuck You)". Or SOA's song "Gonna Have to Fight". The EP No Policy was produced in 1980 and it's clean, clear, crisp, PURE hardcore.

Chaos UK's "Britain's Burning" EP 1982 & Poison Idea's "Pick Your King" E.P. the year after. Same kind of feel, different sides of the Atlantic Ocean...

Reminds me of how my uncle's played Look up Blokaade

thank you good man

He looks healthy for a 350 lb junky punker.

Jesus?

🤣

Yeh, he's the main man.

He’s a very famous punk rock vocalist that’s very cool

some of this boomer music is pretty good

@@xisotopex The 1980s are boomers? Learn math.

@@Truth_Hurts_Bad dude! the guys that make this music are boomers. try to unfuk yourself.

40 years old? Jesus. Double my life and I’m still 6 years younger than this. Some things just hold up too well.

too little, too late

45 same here.Fresh hardcore punk sounds from the eighties.

I'm 14 lmao too early ig

Walrus Punk!

@@glenndanzigsemployeeplease7638 never too early for punk haha

well, you might end up not changing either but you can try.

these are word to live for

Some said... If you don't like the rules, try to change them, if you can't change them, ignore them... On the other hand, maybe the world will change when we all change. Each individual can change to make it happen... And don't let the error enter into yourself... If you change you will get something for sure...

@@sciexp Not if they all change to different things. Personally, if everyone changed to be aligned with me... Id change, I don't do good with groups..

@@drdelewded Maybe I did not explain well.. I was referring to Deep changes about selfishness, extreme individualism, and things like that, not preferences. If we commit ourselves with common sense, we will arrive at very similar conclusions, and differences Will be minor ones, and of course, we will keep our different tastes and opinions in general, but at a deeper,.more abstract or general level, we will agree, and we will live much better, cooperating more instead of trying to be competitive. I could be wrong too, of course... But of course, I will not do the changes for other people. I need them, I need everybody. Everybody can and has to contribute for these deep changes. It's not imposible, I think...

True as fuck, catch wrek to this shit!!!!!

the bass work on this so underrated

This is my life

i guess Im randomly asking but does any of you know of a tool to get back into an Instagram account? I was dumb lost the account password. I appreciate any tricks you can give me

@Aiden William instablaster :)

Absolutely brother...Absolutely

No Minor Threat or Black Flag?

None of those bands have the same intensity as the bands I mentioned. Still great and very influential bands of course.

But when we're talking best, those bands are still really important, along with Circle Jerks, Bad Brains, Dead Kennedys, etc.

Music progresses. Those bands I mentioned are the pinnacle of hardcore music. The first bands aren't always the best, they're just influential, but not the best.

Matter of opinion I suppose. Still love all the bands you listed anyways

I'm 45, one of my favorite bands shows

So basically what your saying is this is good and good

@@johndoe-cc9cw yep, 3 years later, i realized. But Nothing has changed, still my favorite shit from them

@@eduardoarthur6531 maybe you're already familiar but check out nardcore full album. Great album

this line up, man...

Exactly

Right on! I had a similar experience when I first heard this in '83. Much respect!

FUCKING ACCURATE. same era same thoughts. made my night reading this comment, s/o to you my guy.

for me it was about 87, i was into death metal still, but i stole my 2 yr younger brothers cassette that had a mix of P.I. , Suicidal Tendancies, SOD, GBH, lets just say i was way done with death metal and into Harcore Punk!

@@denvercampbell1634 Wow,,,and just a bit curious which Death metal bands you were listening already in 1987 Still... ;-)

@@vopy48 Metallica, Venom, Mercyful Fate, Slayer, just a few off the top off my head...

def. in the top 10

hands down...

I agree!

Facts

Best l've ever heard

The shows in SLC were fuckin epic. War All the Time.

Saw them in Portland in '98. Good Times!

I have one of that also :)

Same

Absolutely

Fucking do it!!! Grind and bleed for it

Just turned 50 and the first album I listened to as a 50 year old was Dayglo Abortions. Then Poison Idea. I thought to myself, what else would these guys do if they weren't self destructive punk maniacs. I'd do the same if I could find a handful of others within 10 years, but punk is an ageist thing and the kids looked at me funny 20 years ago when I finally picked up a guitar. Older outcasts have a lot to prove, guess I'm in it for the ling haul. Or short. However many days are left

Dayglo Abortions = my first show in 85 or 86. They didnt weigh as much, but they go nice together

@@DaveAnchovies I luv DGA!

@@DaveAnchovies Carry the hardcore punk in your hart, it will never die!

Which band by chance?

For me it's a toss up between this ep and Antidote thou shall not kill ep

If were to die .in the next 3 mths it would be this and 82 bootlegs of Husker Du as the nest hc ever produced..just makes sense.

i also like what we want is free, iq 32, nervous breakdown, government issue, there’s a ton but this is definitely one of the best i’ve ever heard

@@superionunleashed Yeah that Antidote ep is amazing, I used to see them at CBGB matinées in the early 80's. The Cause For Alarm is up there also.

i agree

Was a giant huge poison idea fan but was growing sick of the. Metal they starting playing... Feel the darkness brought back that Portland feel... Almost as good as record collectors ep

You spend way too much time with Pantera folk. Not even close. K.o.p. , p.y.k or, War all the time?

@@lornemajor6591 you assume a lot about a person from a single album preference. do you know their political beliefs too lol

I think he says "You paid how much for this?" At least that's how I've always heard it.

Yeah, why are those lyrics missing ?

Elvis is on the back.
