Old School Punk

SWA was a hard rock/metal side project from Black Flag bassist Chuck Dukowski. Released in '86 "Sex Dr." had some great tunes. This one was always a favorite-



Chuck grew up in my hometown and went to the same high school I did, though he was 7 years older than me.

I scored a few Voivod vinyls the other day, thought this was more punk than anything.

Awesome!
Back in the mid 80's I started a postpunk power trio side project with my best friend and a drummer that my (future) wife had met at the photo lab where she worked. His previous band had just imploded and he was looking for a gig. They were called L.S.N. (Loud Senseless Noise) and Voivod was a huge influence. Dude was the fastest most powerful drummer I'd ever met. Long story short that guy is our first born child's godfather.

Here's a clip from a reunion show they did a while back-

I like it!

Love Voivod too, cool technical cyber punky metaly , i'll have to post some up later. R.I.P. Piggy, the new guy does you proud!!

By 1981, the Undertones were trying to expand their sound and broaden their appeal which kind of backfired with their hardcore fans. Their 3rd full-length album Positive Touch didn't do too well, and I admit it took me a while to warm up to it. It did have a few great tunes, not so much punk but pretty solid.

Not sure how it fits..but i like
