Just stumbled on this thread and wanted to contribute my .02. Some of my favorite punk bands are The Dead Kennedy's, Minor Threat, Fugazi, 7 Seconds, Circle Jerks, GBH and Social Distortion.
Billy-Klubb said:for some reason, Fugazi always pissed me off. I really don't know why. it still does.
I was listening to the Anti-Nowhere League anthology a little while ago.
Maybe cause they're straight edge.
Any GG Allin fans?

I never liked Fugazi (no problem with Minor Threat though), but i can't stand GG Allin
A few sXe bands I like:
Casey Jones
Minor Threat

Strife
I'm sure there are more, but off the top of my head that's what I've got right now.
I like Strife. Like Gorilla Biscuits and some of the older 7 Seconds. Champion and With Honor aren't bad. Throwdown had a decent song or two back in the day (pre-that ****e Haymaker album, haven't listened to em since). And I've always had a soft spot for Earth Crisis, still not sure why. I suppose I dig the whole youth crew style a little more than the metalcore.
I think I posted this already a while back, but I get a kick out of playing Earth Crisis while drinking a beer, smoking a cigarette, and eating a cheeseburger.
I can't stand hardliner's though.
Entirely with you there.
Heard of but never run into em. When i was in my teens in the PNW we had a real bonehead problem. Then when i moved to Jersey it was usually FSU causing problems. Always loved it when DMS put FSU in their place.

Johnny Ain't Coming home- 86'd
Hey QHRUMPF, when were you living in NJ?
Did you know Society's Failure or the Survivors?

Interesting thread
Currently my playlists for brew day is a mix of Aus Rotten, No Hope For The Kids, Bleeders and The Sods.
Looking forward to get inspired by this thread.
I moved to Vegas in '99, shortly after Dan & Spit were murdered. WP groups & ARA groups were moving in like mad. everyone was fighting everyone and each other. that was a rough 2 years.
Without getting into a discussion of the politics around the whole thing, I remember when that happened. I never knew either of them, but a number of friends were close with both of them. That whole thing was f'ed up. Something like that happened again in Portland a few years ago, but luckily the guy survived.

dms? Skins?
I have only ever seen that situation in the reverse.
When I have seen both skins and FSU (or alleged FSU) at shows, things have always ended poorly for the skins.
That band gets nowhere near enough respect. And you gotta hand it to em for being nearly impossible to pin em into a particular style.
One of my favs of theirs.
