the shit.
I have a theory that the main difference between a punk band and a hardcore band is whether or not you look
the shit. Because most hardcore bands (except Refused and a couple of others [blah blah shape of punk isn't really hardcore blah blah]) look like a bunch of turds wiped on the loo roll of popular consciousness.
So, my question:
Dear Mr Rail,
I have a piercing in my forehead; are rings or studs in this year?
Yours,
Patrick O'Dentist.
