Punk/Ska in Tampa FL

Lexi963 — Thu, 15 Oct 2009 20:17:18 GMT

Hey, who in the Tampa Bay area likes punk and ska on here?

The Filibusters in Seattle

ColumnBreak — Sat, 22 Aug 2009 01:57:20 GMT

I'm a huge fan of The Filibusters in Seattle. I'm good friends with the guitarist, Dan, and have followed him on his other music projects. this band, though, is awesome. The lyrics are pretty cool, too, focusing on current events and other topics that affect peoples' lives.

If you're interested in punk rock, check out their MySpace page at www.myspace.com/thefilibustersseattle or their Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/pages/The-Filibusters/104830890773?ref=nf.

If you're in the Seattle area, I highly recommend that you go see them; they are a live group of people and have a ton of positive energy that gets the crowd in it.

I've also written up some details of my experience of the band at: http://www.columnbreak.com/2009/08/filibusters-use-summer-to-break-onto.html.

What do you think? Is Pain Ska or Punk band?

OddyEven — Wed, 24 Jun 2009 16:31:18 GMT

Pain is an Awesome band (if you don't take my word for it, check them out yourself)...

I have their DVD In A Band, and it showed their glory days from 1994-2001, until the band split ...

But through out the DVD, they kept saying that they're a Punk band and not a Ska band, just Punk...

I mean come on! They have a trumpet, trombone, and a saxophone player! That is definetely Ska!

What do you guys think?

Punk or Ska?

These forums "look" dead, but i know they're not!

Old AFI. They used to be soo much better then now, like the album "Very Proud of Ya"

Adolescents new album!

Against All Authority

The Aggrolites new album!

Bad Brains? I heard something that they had to change their name to Soul Brains. Not sure exactly.

Warped tour '09 U.K. Subs, Fear, Adolescents,

Nothing nice to say. Its a web comic but its definetly hilarious.

Generally anything else im kinda buzzed. Im just trying to get something going on this *** except Good Charolette and people not knowing what punk/ska is.

As many of you know, they've reunited. Do you think their latest album will be any good?

Also... any word on possible tour dates?

Band to consider

Turbotoki7 — Sat, 28 Feb 2009 19:07:01 GMT

Any big fans of the Decline of Western civilization/LA Punk?

Punky Reggae — Thu, 19 Feb 2009 21:50:37 GMT

If you havent seen it you should watch it. You cant get it at a video store or netflix. You can watch parts on youtube or google video.

Suburbia is good too.

AFI

TMVfoSHO — Tue, 03 Feb 2009 04:14:15 GMT

I love older AFI.....favorite album?? I'd have to go with Black Sails In the Sunset.

Comeback Kid

BlueMiasma — Tue, 30 Dec 2008 00:16:45 GMT

I've recently really started digging this band. Both Wake the Dead and Broadcasting are wonderful albums. Any other fans here?

Any rockabilly/psychobilly fans????

AFCO — Tue, 16 Dec 2008 02:54:50 GMT

Luv the Horrorpops, The Creepshow, The Detroit Cobras and more.

Anyone else?

The Exploited!

Turbotoki7 — Fri, 28 Nov 2008 02:49:47 GMT

how many listeners out there?

MCR is my favorite band 4ever

bloodyvampires — Mon, 24 Nov 2008 19:01:39 GMT

are they anyone elses?

Best live punk band?

NHDisasterSquad — Fri, 14 Nov 2008 06:30:44 GMT

What do you guys think?

If they count, I say the World/Inferno Friendship Society hands down. Just incredible stage presence.

If not, I've had a lot of fun at Lawrence Arms shows, though Brendan Kelly's substance abuses have made their actual performances pretty suspect. Also, Polar Bear Club and Hot Water Music are awesome, and something about Cloak/Dagger's performances has always really impressed me.

A Wilhelm Scream

JaapvdV — Sun, 02 Nov 2008 14:10:24 GMT

Any AWS fans out here?

I think they're great.. Over the past years they have acquired a certain own sound, which makes them a not so average punk/hardcore band.

Also, the lyrics are just insane XD

The Fest

NHDisasterSquad — Wed, 15 Oct 2008 07:53:59 GMT

Anyone going down to Gainesville this year? If you are I'm jealous as hell.

Hardcore.

StugLife — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 19:19:48 GMT

Today's hardcore is well away from it's punk roots and Hardcore should have it's own sub-genre thread. Agree or disagree?

SKA SUCKS!

eyerise — Mon, 18 Aug 2008 23:34:51 GMT

NOT OLD SKA

NEW SKA.... PUNK SKA... HARDCORE SKA...... FRICKIN LAME- O'S

The TERM 'Punk' Is Dead, The MUSIC Is Alive And Kicking

Slimjim8249 — Fri, 08 Aug 2008 03:42:25 GMT

If Billy Talent, Good Charlotte, Hawthorne Heights, My Chemical Romance, and all counterparts fall under the same umbrella as Minor Threat, Bad Brains, and the Descendents, I think it's safe to say the term 'punk' is pretty much useless. Yes, there are some genuine punk band out there nowadays, but even calling them that is pointless, because at this point, who ISN'T considered punk? I mean, honestly, it's criminal. I'm not putting any of these bands down, but I think they are seriously misclassified.

Good Charlotte isn't punk anymore

EGumz — Fri, 01 Aug 2008 21:55:42 GMT

I was looking through my music by genre, and I saw Good Charlotte under emo. I think their more electro rock now. They already started changing in their album Chronicals of Life and Death (an example is the song Ghost of you) then they released I don't wanna be in Love from Good Morning Revival. When they were punk, I felt more emotion through their songs and meaning behind the lyrics. Now I just dance to their songs (seriously, I do extreme aerobics with their songs lol)
