Im african american i am 56 years old i never stop listening i first heard of punk with 7seconds later the circkle jerks amongst other bands in California at 19 years old

[@greasergreg785]

I like all of the different Black Flag vocalists but Keith was always my favorite. Group Sex is a masterpiece. The energy captured on that record is palpable

[@zappadadooi90]

Their very last record (it came out in 95', so I guess it's safe to say that), 'Oddities, Abnormalities and Curiosities' is one of the most underrated punk albums of that decade. I don't know why it doesn't get more attention than it does: Morris has never been more charismatic than on this album, which also demonstrates Hetson's range and talent even moreso than any of his Bad Religion records. The entire record is great, but that cover of Soft Boys 'I wanna Destroy You' featuring (of all people) Debbie Gibson, just takes the cake

Circle Jerks are legendary. Keith is a great frontman with a clear voice. Golden Shower probably my favourite and yes VI was a surprise packet.

[@DylanGuttersnipe]

Don't foget there was Dez Candena before Rollins became vocalist. Dez later played guitar for Jerry Only's Misfits with Marky Ramone on drums.

[@DylanGuttersnipe]

He did reunite with Black Flag under the name Flag.

[@thepunkrockreview]

Oh word? That's dope, I didn't know that!

[@johndoe-cb5ck]

Yeah,flag played right before rancid at punk rock bowling and let's say Keith wasn't to happy about it...saying the damned should have headlined the show that night and be being an old guy I couldn't have agreed more...there would be no rancid if there was no damned and flag...but what people have told me I guess rancid was influenced by the clash?

[@johndoe-cb5ck]

I remember seeing the circle jerks before Keith had dreads,one time my buddy and i went to club they were they were playing a few hours before the doors opened,we got on the guest list for helping them set up the t-shirts and the bass player wasn't there for sound check so Cornelius from JFA was hanging and filled in on bass for sound check...you guys talk about bad religion a lot you should check out "shattered faith" they sound like the "how could hell..." album

[@thepunkrockreview]

Man, being at some of those older shows must have been awesome

[@johndoe-cb5ck]

@@thepunkrockreview yeah it was good times...scary,exciting,satisfying all at the same time,never knew what would happen from show to show. Keep up with older bands,I love hearing what the younger punks think about the older bands,to me It's completely different era's...and ignore the haters.

[@craigthompson2717]

It looks like a skull literally behind your head when I look at the rancid poster seriously check it out look at your discussion and look at the rancid poster no I'm not stoned

[@Jonathan138]

always a good conversation between you dudes. Check out the Ramones documentary “end of the century.” It’s the best one out there. Still gonna bug you guys to cover your favorite records produced by Tim and Lars! 🙏🏻

[@thepunkrockreview]

That topic is on my list, I just need to remember to go to the list

[@Jonathan138]

@@thepunkrockreview hell yeah. Most of their producing credits are on Wikipedia

[@craigthompson2717]

I became a gutter punk for a while i respect punk most of all the cause were the brews sporting anti swastika tattoos im sober with respect of a choice so poor one for the homies 😂

[@johndoe-cb5ck]

Oh yeah...check our DI. It has Casey,the drummer from the adolescents blue lp.

[@loco504]

Going to see them in New Orleans March 27th.. Looking forward to be with a crowd I will be more safe to skank with than the festivals crowd! LOL

[@thepunkrockreview]

I can't wait to go to that show, it was my birthday gift from my wife

[@DylanGuttersnipe]

The Circle Jerks album Thirteen is great, I think that came out after Wild In The Streets. Early Black Flag with Keith Morris is great & I like Damaged & My War. Not a fan of the the rest of Black Flag albums after.
