If there's one genre I feel like I might be the go-to guy on BEA, it's punk (and hopefully that will become post rock). But yeah, I can guide you through the genre. |
Thank you!

I like what purple wrote, but to say Damned Damned Damned was the first straight punk album is silly as The Ramones' debut predates it. Also to say the New York bands were primarily influenced by Sex Pistols (rough paraphrase-not exactly what was said) is wrong cuz well most of the New York punks were completely different than the pistols and predate them as well. If you want to talk about influence, The Pistols sound was mostly ripped from Johnny Thunders, primarily in the guitar parts. Like total tip on the guitar sounds and riffs.

 It does. I was hoping to get some decent punk knowledge in this thread.

If I were to rank genres, it would go: post punk (UK), hardcore (US), "early" punk (largely UK).
Bottom line: if you include post punk, the British are probably better; if not, the US is infinitely better. |
