@The Adventures Of TNT My mom was a kid in the 50s & they had what they called Punk Pubs & Cafes. She said it was mostly Beatniks & Bikers who adopted the slanderous term. "Yea, that's right, we're Punks!". Some say it goes back into the 40s. & the angst music had multi names (as does still) & Punk was also used back then. So it blended & mixed with the expanding scenes. Hippies & Rockers mostly & my mom was a bit of the 4. Later 60s mostly Hard Rock & then Metal, & she worked with a lot of the big bands of that time in the Philly scene. Being born to a teenage mom at that time, who took me along to mostly everything was a great experience. Being so close to NY the area scenes crossovered a lot & then so did the music more & more. Fans traveled then formed bands & Tri-State+ support fueled so much. Mostly small places hosted local shows. Then CBGBs was taken over by the Punks. It was a scene & not a genre. Many of bands that played were varied styles, later all under the Punk term. Patty Smith, Iggy Pop, Ramones, to Misfits etc. Many different sounds & styles, all coming together. Fan base grew & many made it into the mainstream. Similar scenes formed all around the world. Many in the US. Yet UK stepped it up. Tape trading became huge. My moms friend would travel all over. To LA & UK mostly & would bring back so many tapes. Got to hear Sex Pistols, Motorhead, Venom Iron Maiden & Def Leppard, then Suicidal Tendencies, Motley Crue & Metallica from their starts. & I traded copies to hear more like Forced Entry, DRI, Die Kruzen, Seduce, Helloween & so on. So bands didn't have to be huge to be heard & tours & shows became plentiful. Many made it to the US & influencing the next waves & so on. Clubs were opening like crazy. Rollerskating Rinks after hours & even Chuck E Cheese had Punk & Metal bands playing. & yet many bands that were of the heavier kind had hard times getting booked. Luckily there were a few to axxomadate them. Around here we had City Gardens. & Randy Ellis kept the shows cheap. Thankfully most were low cost then. Even stadium shows were under $10. Cheap enough to go check out a show & not know anyone & leave with some hand printed shirts & a few copied recorded tapes of new bands. At least a few great shows a week. Sometimes a few in 1 night. My time from MetalHead, who loved Punk & many styles, but became a Thrash Baby❣ As many did & then they had many Punk side projects, some of which got big too. Continued going to shows with my Mom. Dreams of opening our own club+. Followed in my Moms footsteps some, working in the scenes & with bands & went beyond with Promotions, Photography, Production, Recording, Management & so on. Right before some big things & a dream world tour that was planned, a drunk driver hit me head on & all spiraled down & i was out of the scene for several years. Had little contact with a few & all i heard & saw seemed sad. Bit after Y2K i started to get back into some. Got out to some shows & fests & got real sad when i saw how things ran. John Connelly from Nuclear Assault/Anthrax & Billy Milano SOD/MOD recognized me & got spinning bear hugs. We caught up some during load off, which they had no one they trusted to help. Yet my reputation remained & we were trusted to help. There were a few "working" females, yet i don't know any that were really trusted. Most knew, i was not in it for the fame or fortune. & i did not F my bands! In any way! All for the love of music! & treated like a brother. Sadly, the tight Brotherhood that once was, was killed by what came after... I started doing more what i use to do, the way i use to as much as i could. Worked with some of my old bands. Got others to reunite & new bands. Even got to run a club that had the dream theme & many aspects me & my Mom wanted oddly. She loved bringing her friends there. I reignited the scene around here a bit. Upping the ante & lit a fire under rears of other clubs so that they treated the band's better. i tried to instill some of the old school ways & mindset on the younger bands. Those who claimed to be Punk, didn't know most of the fundamentals. We mixed shows up & shared stories of how it was & should be again. I like to think some understood & got a bit. Unfortunately not enough. Thus why is said Punk is dead. Yet the true few rage on still. So the good ol stuff lives. & some new were lucky enough to some how get it, or in part enough to be taken serious by their forefathers. I pray everyday somehow the words keep spreading enough for the clueless to het it & help those who are struggling & scenes around the world light up as they once were, or even half way i would settle for! Sorry for the novel- but that's a bit of my perspective ~

"It was a scene & not a genre." YES. Coming later (mid-80s), my definition of "punk" was the genre rather than the scene. Some retro-friction comes out of that difference (where I wouldn't classify the Go-Gos as "punk", for example, as much as I LOVE their music). Ok... I'm reacting before reading your whole post.

Brit punk here. There back in '77. Turn sixty in a week. How the bloody hell did that happen. First wave Brit stuff you've got Pistols, Clash, Damned, X Ray Spex, Slits, Penetration. Second wave is Ruts, UK Subs, Angelic Upstarts, Cockney Rejects, Stiff Little Fingers and the third wave is the more hardcore stuff like Discharge, GBH, Exploited, Anti Nowhere League, Crass and all the other crusty bands. There's still some good bands out now, Knock Off being my standout band. Great seeing someone discover the music I've loved for the last forty six years. It's not a fashion it's a state of mind.

- Ratos de Porão - Bad Brains - Crass - Minor Threat - Oi Polloi

Your comment about "how metal was shaped..." You are right on point my friend! As far as the Motorhead comment.

As a kid who grew up listening to punk the second I heard hard gangster rap I felt a kinship. A lot of us who had hard times can relate to these genres and the oppression of police presence on the less fortunate regardless

You absolutely nailed it. Punk music is entirely about uniting the widely accepted progressive views of the youth to create a popular front. It's forever relevant and holds up for a reason. We new you were a real one when you talked Crass

Punk rock and early hip hop are cousins to each other. Yall are correct! Very similar. Came from the underground, many came from lower social status/upbringing/poverty, in your face, rebellious, outspoken against injustice, strong messages, sacarstic/funny, catchy music and vocals, good bass guitars, etc. Both genres grew up with each other in big cities back then too (late'70s, '80s) in smaller night clubs. There was 'goofy" punk rock too like new wave, garage rock, early indie/alt. BTW lol . Anyhow, those who says punk is dead are normally older grumpy gatekeepers. Ignore them lol. Punk never died it just evolved just like any other genres as well. Many subgenres. Also, yes. Body Count is crossover punk (punk fusion with rap, metal, etc) . DRI, Bad Brains, Suicidal Tendencies, Municipal Waste, Beastie Boys, MOD, SOD, Anthrax, etc are similar to Body Count too . Same subgenre.. Lot of crossover punk bands came from the coast too. NYC, DC, etc (east coast) and LA, SF, etc (westcoast) where rap and punk have heavy scenes and blendings. Also Houston , TX (DRI, etc). Ska-punk is very big too (mixture of ska/reggae and punk). Same thing. Lots of ska/reggae and punk bands grew up together in the underground scene and clubs (UK, LA, NYC, etc) . Started influencing each other musically. This is why many skaters love punk, ska/reggae and hip hop at the same time lol.

I remember there were two charts, one was the one Jimmy Saville would host and the other one was independent labels and CRASS were usually number 1 or 2 on it. 20-30 years later conspiracy theorists took a few talking points from anarcho punk, and acted like anarcho punk never happened. Now they're gurus against those 'evil soros funded anarchists'.

Just a thought..., I spoke with my friends, Mike Watt (Minutemen - Bassist) and Kira (Black Flag, Dos - Bassist). We were having a conversation about hip hop and my observations that a lot of punks were getting into hip hop. I asked them their thoughts and they told me, " because it is the last dangerous music". I asked them who their favorite artist was in hip hop and they BOTH replied, "RAKIM". I could not disagree. Rakim and DJ Premiere are part of the back bone.... Yes, Ice T has a heavy punk and metal history. We used to go to the RADIO club in Los Angeles where Ice T MC'd after we worked punk gigs at the Olympic Auditorium back in the day....

If you want to hear bands that influenced all this modern Techno/Rave music, check out - Skinny Puppy, Ministry, Pailhead, Pigface, KMFDM, My life with the thrill kill kult, Front 242, NIN, Killing Joke, Throbbing Gristle, and any other Industrial Punk Band.

Miss Lexxx, I wonder if you meant to type 1962 instead of 1982? Underground punk era was 1960s - 1970s.

Punk music unites if you let it. It's too bad most of culture is so caught up with status instead of educating oneself how the machine (GOV) works and what they do to try and keep us numb and dumb. So glad I discovered this music through Metallica and thrash in 85. Crossover was a huge thing here in the bay area late 80s. Metal heads and punks moshing together at shows. At first the punks hated the metal heads and vice versa. Then DRI came along to unite us all with the Crossover record defining a new genre. So glad people like you TNT are exposing yourself and your followers to it. Best from the SF Bay Area.

Missed your stream, chat so will post here, my journey in punk started in 1983 when a mate gave me two singles Sex pistols - My way 12" and Angelic upstarts - im an upstart (green vinyl 7"), got into 77 punk, UK 82 punk and OI! music, then i got more into Crass etc and turned more Anarcho punk, then got more into Grindcore, reggae, free festival stuff.

2nd wave uk punk is the difinitive music for me. GBH, the Exploited, Subhumans, Conflict, Cockney Rejects, the 4skins, Last Resort all had albums out early 80's that i consider classics

Thank you...for exploring Punk Rock music and actually exploring punk rock music!!! It was heavy English...no problem with that. There was a The Screamers in LA doing Peer Pressure... and other areas of punk arriving at the same time. BUT... I LOVE you are at real punk...

I remember seeing GBH supported by English Dogs ( check them out) at The Grot in Stafford, UK. Nearly collapsed the sprung floor and brought the ceiling down, mosh pit so good!

Grew up on a lot of these bands as well as old metal and hip hip. I’m so stoked you listened to I want to conquer the world by Bad Religion. Such an amazing song. They were definitely one of my favorites specifically that album. The Descendants are another rad OG California punk band you should check out if you haven’t yet. Milo goes to college is a classic! 🍻

Punk is a wide sonic and esthetic spectrum... Everything from almost retro-sounding dirty rock'n'roll with basic chords and shouty street protest vocals, from melodic singing and upbeat slow tempo to extreme speeds, even more extreme than some of the metal bands, not to mention extreme vocals, lyrics, esthetics and practically almost noise sounding bands. There are many subgenres of punk and styles of it. Some are more well-known, some are more underground. pop punk, street punk, skate punk, hardcore punk, crust punk, oi punk, etc...

TSOL, Dead Kennedy's, misfits, 45 grave, exploited, black flag, gorilla biscuits, minor threat. Especially minor threat one for the founders of hardcore. And you should listen to DRI early music.

Punk was the only genre created in reaction to pop music. When the age of disco was force-feeding people trends before music, dirty kids with no musical ability said "fuck it. If you won't give me what I want I'll do it myself." At least in the states. In the UK it was about a hopeless future, no jobs, etc. Though even from the get-go the genre was hypocritical to some degree. I mean the Sex Pistols were formed like a boy band.

I just found you in the past 24 hours and 110% join for all the live streams of punk and metal.

If someone told me that Meatmen cut at the end was from '85/86, I wouldn't question it.... that's the stuff I heard more and more at shows back then, and we called it "Speed Metal." As for your "punk influencing metal" idea: hard to say!! I felt Metal influenced Punk in the mid-80s more than the other direction. In retrospect, "punk" didn't go the way ~I~ wanted; it went the way everyone else wanted; and more kids wanted metal. Decades later, though, WOW, I respect metal; it's just as real.

Punk influenced metal “first” as part of the evolution of Thrash, especially hardcore punk drumming, & a lot of early pioneers of Thrash continued to love punk (esp Jeff Hanneman). Then Thrash influenced punk back, & a lot of UK82 & anarcho groups went full metal (Amebix, English Dogs, etc), & a lot of US hardcore punk went crossover (COC, DRI, ST) or metal (Agnostic Front, etc). Even now, many skinheads & old school punks listen to some extreme metal & power metal along with punk. I know less about crust, but I feel like Crust was influenced by Death & Black Metals, too. All in all, though, I agree Metal has had a way bigger influence on Punk rather than reverse

Congratulations, you are one of the few not growing up with punk that understand the message and the movement. Great selection of bands but pitty your focus is on the more well-known U.K and USA punk bands. When punk popped up in 1976 it popped up in every western country, when hardcore take over at the end of the 70's it popped up allover the world. From Peru to The Philippines from South Africa to Hungary. Maybe something to think about. Being in the punk movement from the mid 80's and playing in some bands myself I can send you some nice stuff. Grts

@Skates Regarding DRI not being punk, but crossover: Sure, I LOVED the parts they had that were hardcore, and didn't want the crossover, ie Metal, parts. But to exclude them from seminal hardcore sounds makes us poorer, not that I would've said that nearly 40 years ago. YES, I got really good at fast-forwarding through metal bits of "Dealing With It" to get at the good parts (uhhh, Counterattack is a fantastic 30 second American Hardcore cut). YES, I was disappointed when their crossover album came out with the metal-sheen logo... it declared where they were, and alas, that wasn't where I was back then. These days though, I've relaxed; I don't recoil at the metal bits at all. I'm happy to include them, pointing at the pure hardcore bits, and recognizing they indeed Crossed Over.

I love how happy this music makes you.

How worrying that these songs are still relevant today, (even more so…..) Great show 👍🏻

The Punx Picnic was an annual event, where the Punx and skins would gather in Princess Street Gardens in Edinburgh, we'd get drunk and then play a game of football.

Dave Trenga, the vocalist, formed another band that after Aus-Rotten split called Behind Enemy Lines, which is basically are harder, more mature version of Aus-Rotten, which I honestly prefer. Behind Enemy Lines is monstrously underrated. I have a bunch of their lyric videos on my channel along with Aus-Rotten.

Aus roten is German.. And means,, Killing All to Zero,,..

Love 6ou for doing these

Aus rotten has been my favorite band for 20 years... but im a huge fan of every band in this video...oi polloi, crass, subhumans are what got me in the scene

Motörhead even did a version of Sex Pistols’ God Save The Queen,and Megadeth did a version of Anarchy in the U.K.

MINUTEMEN? Clean guitar solos, they were punk with jazz elements and Workers lyrics!! From San Pedro, CA. Bassist Mike Watt went on to play with Iggy...

Fuck man you get it I love this I’ve been a punk ever since 15 years of age and I saw the pist last week next door from their show

I grew up on 70s-80s punk - Sub Hum Ans, The Cramps, The Faction, Minor Threat, Fugazi, and so many more. I am just excited now that I am sharing it with my 5 year old - who loves DK, Nick Cave, Skinny Puppy and the Special's. SubHumAns do some great tuned - Mickey Mouse is Dead, From the Cradle to the Grave. Xyclone B Movie, Waste of Breath

Cool and thanks for doing this! Punk is a genre so hard to breakdown because there was different aspects of it happening at the same time. While there was the U.K. punk scene happening in the latter part of the 70's there was also the American Punk scene going on at at the same time . Raised in punk rock here in Southern California we had our own punk scenes that developed in the early 80's and it varied as well. The 2 major scenes were the L.A. Punk scene and the Orange County Punk scene and soon after the Valley Punks each scene giving the scene some great bands. Great So. Cal punk rock bands to check out on your own time would be: The Germs, the Weirdos, Black Flag, Bad Religion, U.X.A., the Gears, Eddie and the Subtitles, Minor Threat, (old ) Social Distortion , ILL RePuTE. The culture of UK and American Punks were quite different and yet the same. Thanks again and hopefully on your own time check them out. There's a great documentary here on KZread talking about the early So. Cal Punk scene be sure to check it out: kzread.info/dash/bejne/aIWHwbdtlbLHhNo.html

I'm 45 years old and still love punk rock and hardcore with all my heart!

I bought the BP CD because of this stream. I had never heard of them. It’s great.

Used to listen to Subhumans on a tape cassette when I was in school, they were ahead of their time, addressing topics that are still relevant today.

For a current band that still has the essence of the old punk values, try the "Idles", and a song to start with that captured me into getting into them was "Grounds"

love your reaction show kust a little history about me have been listening to punk/new wave since the early 80s and well the city I lived in wasnt punk friendly mostly cowboys and rodeo freaks here one song I would suggest looking at is Rise Against by the band Black Flag with Henrey Rollins as the lead singer it is in my humble opinion a song that was formative for west coast punkrock

FINALLY someone reacting to punk music

Motorhead were their own style! they were before punk, the only metal band the punks liked

great show good stuff

Sham 69 was named after a football club, Hersham 69. This song sounds like a supporters' chant.

Subhumans are one of my favorite bands ever. Subvert City is one of their best songs. Some of their other songs you should listen to are Society , No, Religious Wars, Dehumanisation, Apathy, This Years War and Labels. Also, the fact that some of their songs are 40 years old and are still relevant today. I can't tell if it's good writing or the fact that shit never changes. Also they are announced a U.S tour. And I read that they were going to be in Atlanta, GA June 7 you should go. They are a great live band.

Although I love all the Tea Punk that came out of the UK. I'm going to list my favs from LA and the OC. Vandals, Social Distortion , The Crowd, X, Simpletones , Rik L Rik, TSOL

The 'Hoi polloi' is a word we use in England to describe the common masses, it's kind of an insult, a bit like chav.

If your listening to the Roots of punk. You have to listen to Iggy Pop and the Stooges. Iggy is the Grandfather of punk. I think the Stooges started Punk. I could be wrong. Lidten to the song "Search and Destroy " Patrick from Delaware

never forget the Decendents , Drunk Injuns, Circle Jerks, Dead Milkmen, Agent Orange, Gay Bikers on Acid, the Exploited... There is a pic taken at a mall in San Antonio in the late 80s of 2 old beatniks and a collection of the local Skaters, Punks and two tone skins. they wanted to experience the current counter culture

Dead Kennedys always superb. Thanks.

There was also a Subhumans from Vancouver at around the same time. One of the (Gerry Useless) ended up in jail for blowing up a factory where cruise missile guidance components were built.

Great reactions my man! Here are some good punk rock songs to check out: No - Subhumans The Economy is Suffering - Anti-Flag Bonzo Goes to Bitburg - Ramones 🤘

lived it big time.

Just getting back into music after doing life, and stumbled onto Otoboke Beaver this year, an all female japanese punk band. Such a great sound. Checkout Otoboke Beaver "don't light my fire" (or any song really) ... it's fabulously controlled chaos ❤

First punk rock song that came out in the UK was a single by the Damed title Neat Neat Neat, New Rose

The Clash

I know I’m late to the game, but can be of my all time favorite punk bands is NAKED RAYGUN. By far the best band out of Chicago.

Has our host heard the Stranglers yet ? That's not a situation that can continue. How about we just kick off with 'Sometimes' - song 1 from album 1 and just plow straight ahead from there ?

The Exploited, Discharge,GBH

If never been to a punk picnic your missing out
