we're a pop band hiding behind stacks and stacks of amplifiers.
and we have studied hard in the way of SST Records.

WAAHH!?!?!? Punk music is almost always catchy!

[Ghost Hip]

Yeah it is but some bands from Louisiana came up here through michigan touring and their punk music was fast, political and hard to swallow. I bought a mix of Louisiana punk/ska and there were only two or three good songs on it. they have a message but no one is going to hear it if you don't have a good hook....or if you scream all the time.

However with that said, I love the Circle Jerks!

I guess I'm a purest when it comes to 'punk' music, but isn't it supposed to be "hard to swallow." I mean if you're going to label it as punk.

But I do like the tunage, something very fun about it and the energy is def there. Love the name too, well done.

True... I suppose what's catchy is subjective, though. I love screaming and noise! <3

That being said, I still fail to see how bands like The Exploited have such a huge fanbase. It's not that loud and abbrassive msuic can't be catchy/interesting (or that it even needs to be catchy to be good!), it's jsut that they bore the shit out of me! Bands like The Exploited need to go away forever. (IMHO...)
