Was going through my old record collection the other day, and I can't believe how much I used to like that awful garbage.

To me, Punk Rock was what came out of London in 1976 and died in 1978, although it kicked off a lot of good new wave bands.
Stopped us having to endure Yes, ELP and Genesis etc.

To you punk rock is the first wave of UK Punk Rock, punk rock had existed outwith the UK during and prior to that period, it also existed in UK outwith London during that period as well.
And in my humble opinion there are a lot of better punk rock bands that existed or still exist long after the art school dropouts that lived in their pretentious insular London scene dissapeared up their own @rses.

that's possibly why i favoured the later more hardcore type punk bands, mostly american bands that were around in the early eightes like the dead kennedys, black flag, bad religion, minor threat, angry samoans, adolsescents, youth brigade, descendents, D.O.A.......etc
I do like a lot of the first wave uk stuff like the pistols, clash, damned and also manchesters finest - slaughter and the dogs but but was never keen on some of the other ones from around that scene like siouxsie & banshees, subway sect etc as i find their holier than thou attitude towards what is and what isnt punk ridiculous. Halfwits like Vic Goddard seemed to think that punk rock was exclusive to Bromley and existed solely there and then.
If i was to pick a band from that era that (imho) defines punk rock it would be the UK Subs
it's not a type of music, a haircut or type of fashion - it's a state of mind

I actually liked the New York Dolls when they first came to the UK but I think it was probably to do with the look.
To us, you were either a Pistols or a Clash man. I chose the short lived one.
Can still remember queing outside the old Virgin Record shop on Frederick Street for Never Mind The Bollocks.
Exciting days when you really felt part of a movement.Last edited by Hillsidehibby; 21-12-2010 at 12:45 PM.

I remember seeing the Dickies at the Odeon and standing next to a bank of speakers. I couldn't hear properly for about 4 days afterward.
