ahhhhh,
Valentines day… possibly the worst holiday ever, I mean, who even bothers with
it? Apparently many people do…. Fuck. Anyway, enjoy this playlist I made on ‘teh
Utewbs’, nine songs of angsty, adolescent punk rock tunes.
The A.G’s –
I Hate Girls
Totally
angsty 80’s/90’s punk in the vein of The Descendents. Unfortunately for them,
they were a bit late to the party with their debut release ‘Bryans Car’ coming
out in 1988 when ‘crossover’ was rampant and ‘post-hardcore/emo’ was pushing
punk in new, exciting directions. This track is from their Cirkus Berzerkus
record that come out sometime in 1990.
The A.G’s –
I Get Rejected
More of the
same juvenile ‘funnypunk’ from the 80’s, how can you not like this?
The
Adolescents – Creatures
I HATE THEM
ALL, CREATURES! With lyrics like that you can’t go wrong! Awesome early Californian
punk rock/hardcore band.
The
Adolescents – No Way
“No ass, no
head, just go home and jack off instead” do I need to say any more?
Screeching
Weasel – Pretty Girls Don’t Talk To Me
How can
someone not like this? Yes it’s childish and angst-y, most good music is! Bugger
off and go listen to Sting if you want ‘serious’ ‘adult’ music. I’ll take
juvenile punk rock any day!
Agent Orange
– No Such Thing
Fantastic
‘surf punk’ with some lyrics about love or rather how there’s ‘NO SUCH THING’.
Ooooh angsty!
Sloppy
Seconds – Germany
This seems
like an earlier recorded version so it’s not as fast and melodic as the ‘Destroyed’
version. Still a blinding tune!
State Of
Alert – Girl Problems
Phwoooooar!
This. Is. HARDCORE. PUNK. Henry Rollins’ (then Garfield) previous band before he
joined up with the mighty Black Flag!
Chixdiggit!
– I Should Have Played Football In High School
Back to the
90’s with this pop-punk gem! I’m not sure if this is a sped up version, as can
happen with tape rips, but I find this much better than the version on their ‘Best
Hung Carrot… Demo’. Again, juvenile punk rock played by a load of dumpweeds. Get
that stick out of your ass and embrace the retardo punk!
With all
said and done, if you’re celebrating today, enjoy! If you’re sitting in your
room like me, watching 80’s horror movies and listening to punk rock, high
five! And enjoy the tunage.
