Punk. Thanks.

Thank you. I'm in a very anti-fascist mood and this is what I need.

No pat, wingnut dishwashers, or johnny hobo. Turn in your crustpants!
/s - obviously :)
-
The inclusion of Chumbawumba is scrambling my brain. Explain please.
-
Most people only know them from that one single that got popular back in the day. They've never been a pop band though. They're actually an anarchist art collective that's been around since the early '80s. The podcast Cool People Who Did Cool Stuff did two episodes on them. It's worth a listen. They're much cooler than you think they are.

REFUSED!!!! I discovered them way too late. They were a band ahead of their time!
-
I actually don't like the '90s stuff they made. Their album War Music in 2019 and the 2020 Malignant Fire single songs are amazing though, and I love Useless Europeans from the Freedom album as well.
If anyone else here ever tried Refused but didn't get it, try their modern stuff, it's way different, lyrics hit harder and the production sounds more similar to that loud Samurai feel in CP2077.

I can't believe that I scrolled the whole thread and didn't find Operation Ivy.
-
Well, they had one albums worth of songs then one member quit. Then other members just added Lars Fredrickson and became Rancid. Like, I love op-iv but rancid scratches that itch and people prob want some more diversity in their list.

If it fits a strict definition, is it really punk at all?

I was like this. It is the worst thing about the music scenes. I try not to be like this anymore.
