SOFT PLAY - Photo Opportunity

[@rhynoxray]

Fk’n blllldy L brilliant 21st century punk rawk. I’m 57 yrs old. Slaves meld all that was good of the early Who and late 70’s to early 80’s punk and reinterpret it in a way few if any bands can. I appreciate Slaves ability to put a new spin on on things instead of the embarrassingly, terrible, lazy stupid exact reproductions most bands who claim to be “punk” do these days. It’s all about kicking the past in the balls as you give it a respectful embrace and Slaves do that like no other modern band do.

Yes! Thanks finally someone who knows what actual punk js! Keep punk alive please

First time I heard these guys they were starting band at a Kasabian gig I went to, and while kasabian were playing all I could hear was slaves in my head, much preferred slaves haha

One of my favorite videos, and probably my favorite Slaves song. It's no wonder why Isaac and Laurie create such wonderful music, they're best friends who both genuinely love the hell out of each other. I'm jealous. I wish I had a friend like that.

[@odic7660]

Billy Percival it's probably the opposite of what you think about this song

[@st3b0rn_kay20]

I am probably the 3rd dislike, in my opinion a true grudge song or rock song has to have a story... I know my Alternitive rock, Classic Rock Artists. But, this just does not make me feel those PTSD moments that I once suffered as a true emo. Or punk in particular.

[@seb5542]

@@st3b0rn_kay20 This is post punk. It is a bit different to emo as it is today and grunge, they where always to do with feelings and shit. Whereas punk was more heavily focused on politics and government shit that fucked up everyone. Not to say grunge wasn't because it was in alot of cases but, grunge was more emotive as in it wasn't just about rage for something, it was many more emotions. They are very different and really shouldn't be compared.
