Dude, In Utero is one of the best albums of all time, it should get more attention than Nevermind but Nevermind had a bigger cultural impact so its above In Utero on the list. Besides, as an unapologetic crusty, its the Misfits that are boring, get some Civil Disobedience or The Varukers and listen to some REAL punk

fantastic production, interesting lyrics, innovative sounds and instrumentation, syncretic blend of noise/feedback music with classic rock solos and chord progressions? Its like if Sonic Youth merged with Credence Clearwater Revival. How can you hate on something so original? I could even accept if you said Bleach or Nevermind were boring (to a degree, they are) but In Utero is an epic departure from the lesser interesting Nirvana records.

In Utero should be flagship record for all music that came after, but it didn't get enough attention from listeners, so Nevermind has that by default.

As to Misfits, again, meh, boring over-simplistic punk with mediocre drumwork and drums are the essential element of innovative or creative punk (after all, what variation can you do with 3 chords and crunching feedback?). Get back at me when you've expanded your horizons into the depths of better punk like this, especially this, and how could I forget this


 


..and what is the deal with the beaf-cake fetish?THE WHOLE BAND LOOKS LIKE THIS!!!!!

First, who the fuck ever implied that I don't like Jack Nicholson. I LOVE Jack Nicholson, just not his work before the 1980s. Second, Nevermind is a terribly over-produced, overly "pop" record which even the band admitted to regretting. What they wanted to do was lost in production, Butch Vig murdered that record. So the band put out WHAT THEY WANTED NIRVANA to sound like on In Utero. It is the more "Nirvana" sounding record, it reflects more of the what their stage-show consisted of from 1990-1994. Also, please note, if you like those boring beefcake "pseudo-punks" the Misfits then you are already on my chump list homie, see the links I posted. THAT is punk, Misfits? Not so much

no. Butch Vig didn't ruin Nevermind. that score goes to Andy Wallace, which the band themselves picked. naively. and "pop" hooks is what made Nirvana.

and why shouldn't the Misfits be a punk band? great classic hooks, Glen's voice, the rough production. they were awesome MAN!!!! though when i think about punk, haha........i dont think about The Misfits.



 

My bias, I'm a recovering crusty from the gutter scene, the whole punk enough pissing contests about authenticity or sincerity dominate our narrative. I just don't think the Misfits are aggressive enough musically compared to the bands I linked such as Varukers, Allergic to Whores, or Civil Disobedience. Further, I was dissing them more in the context of Rob's comments that somehow In Utero is boring, but the Misfits aren't. Simply put, punk enough or not, I find their music slow, unoriginal, and boring.

Actually, believe it or not the peak of crust, gutter, and anarcho punk is the mid-to-late 1990s. In the late 70s-to-mid-80s there are some pioneer and cornerstone bands of the genre, but in the 1990s the scene was expanded, there were WAY more bands, WAY more shows, and WAY more crustys all over the place lying in gutters drinking and bumming change. I know, I was one of them

to yr dislike of The Misfits. fuck punk!!! i see them as a good-time drinking rock n roll band. they're just simple and fun. half of what "punk" was all about in the first place.


To that I can agree emphatically, but I still find it boring, and the entire point was that Rob said it was better than In Utero, to which I disagree, its way more boring in my opinion. Needs more blast beats, growls, and unintelligible pissed off lyrics that are exclusively NOT about your ex-girlfriends

and guitars are a great way to deal with ex-girlfriend problems. always has been.

Punk is, by my definition, more often the latter than the former. When I think of punk, true punk, I think of Half Japanese, Beat Happening, Sonic Youth, Spacemen 3, the Fall, Ramones, Stooges, and the Birthday Party. All bands that it would be unfair to call " angry," since they made music that channeled so many emotions other than anger and frustration.

That said, I also think of tons of pissed off bands, who were defined by their pissedoffedness (Minor Threat, Albini/Big Black, Nirvana, Dead Kennedys). most of those bands were more frustrated than angry, or they were angry about social issues. Anger is definitely part of the deal, but it's not a prerequisite for punk. Emotion, however, and an absolute refusal to inhibit the expression of your emotions, no matter how chaotic, silly, or retarded it makes you look/sound... That is an absolute necessity.

Those bands up there did anger, sure. But they also did whatever the fuck else they were feeling. Punk is more artistic by design than angry, from my perspective. I think it's a broader genre than the stereotypes would suggest.

Gutter punks are pretty angry and violent. Though the angry ones tend to be the alcoholic ones, who are usually pretty good people. It's the smack and speed fiend gutter punks who will surprise you with how quickly they can get a sharp object into your leg and start throwing blows.
And these are the 39-40 year old "GP" I'm talking about. The 20-30 are probably absolute fucking bastards, and I hope I never encounter anyone under the age of 20 who I would call, or who calls himself (because really, what's worse than that, you know?) "gutter punk." I don't think I would be able to handle it.

You know, that is a true statement. In my teens and early 20s as a punk, we used to get into way too many brawls. That is in part, a significant reason why a joined up with a bunch of Rastafari folks, after spending several years getting into street fights hanging out with punks and getting fucking shot at hanging out with gangsters (yeah, I made a lot of poor decisions in my younger days), a lifestyle around peace, harmony, and brotherly love with your neighbors was very centering. Its made me an entirely different person, and I haven't had to get in a fight or almost stab somebody in at least seven years!

Quote:

That summarizes my best friend Mikey D and like 10 other people I used to hang out with. Me and Mike were in a crust band together. Mike was a fucking brawler, and a miserable drunk. but he remains one of the best people I've ever known, guy has serious heart. He settled down, sort of, just last year after having his first son. We were thinking, finally! Yeah, gutter punks will get you into some shit, but it is what it is, great music and as you said, drunk aside generally good people.

to me, boring is something like Adele.

then again, over the years i've seen pretty much every artist getting called "boring" here, including SY themselves.

name one artist who isn't boring. YOU CAN'T.
