Girth Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Couldn't see a thread for this. Anyone into these genres (particularly the sub genres like Psychobilly/Oi!/Hardcore) at all? I'm looking ideally for decent new bands. I can't seem to post videos properly but will put up some good stuff when I figure out how!

marty_j Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 (edited) I'm into Hardcore punk - specifically Sick Of It All, H2O - not sure of any new bands. I enjoyed Shai Hulud when I saw them supporting SOIA a few years back although they are not a new band. Ska punk - I enjoy Snuff/Rancid/Skankin Pickle Edited September 29, 2016 by marty_j 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaffenThinMint Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 For those of you that liked the Two Tone take on Ska, The Selector are playing at Paisley Town Hall (yes, I know...) tomorrow night, http://www.songkick.com/concerts/26763844-selecter-at-paisley-town-hall?utm_source=11593&utm_medium=partner&utm_campaign=widget&utm_content=10237 Tickets are an eye watering £21.50, but that's probably because they know they're going to get a full house. Doors open at 7pm, support act is Dogtooth. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capybara Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 I am a huge Reggae fan. Mickey Dread above was one of the very best. He worked with the Clash and I will try and post some stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McSpreader Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Grew up late 70's early '80's . Saw all the two tone bands back then including The Selecter . They were in fact my favourite two tone band, something to do with Pauline Black maybe. Loved all the early ska and used to collect the vinyl. Loved the early first wave of Punk. My era. Never got in to the later stuff. Voice of a generation. Try this classin Prince Buster track....always makes me smile !! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've mellowed in my musical tastes somewhat but still hate Queen & all that other pretentious shite music for the middle classes. I had Later with Jools Holland on the telly last night & he had a punky duo on, I think the song was Spit It Out? Reminded me of the good Ol days (old fart warning). Reggae wise we used to listen to Yellow Man a lot. Still feels like I'm almost 16 again. Grimbo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tree house tam Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 Punk and Ska are probably the 2 genres I keep going back to. Whenever I'm looking at vinyl they're the first piles I look at. Although too young to see the Specials first time round I was first in the queue when they reformed. Suppose that was the benifit of having older brother and sisters. Got all their vinyl too. Met Madness in Camden when I was 8. I even got sent home from primary school aged 7 for having a Harrington with the nutty boy M on the back 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boostin' Kev Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Seen Cockney Rejects, Prince Buster, Lee Perry, Specials and U-Roy live. Never been a huge fan of any of the genres tbh, always preferred music with rhythm. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capybara Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 BBC4 Has a fair bit of Reggae on tonight. May be an anecdote to the football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Boab Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 Was a massive Clash fan 77 to 82 and they got me into listening to folk like Dillinger, Big Youth, Mikey Dread and Junior Murvin, which I still listen to, to this day! Saw the two tone tour at Ayr Pavilion in 79 with Specials, Madness and Selecter and this remains one of the best gigs I've been to in the last 40 years!

I don't think their biggest fan would suggest they had rhythm though. So it's a surprising choice given your preference. They are of course, shite bar a few songs. Cock Sparrer who unfortunately get lumped in to that genre are a different story. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course not is that really your point ? You can't be suggesting that because I prefer music with rhythm I shouldn't be listening to the Rejects . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
