Valentards


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.
