Good and evil

In one corner there's Fear: http://hearditbefore.wordpress.com/2009/05/17/beers-queers-and-fear/ a bunch of beer-drinking, horny jock punks who throw around the word faggot

In the other corner we have DYS Wolfpack:http://cosmichearse.blogspot.com/2009/03/brotherhood.html Angelic, straight-edge, likably celibate, uh, Jock punks.

So which wins the battle? No idea, but it'd be fun to watch,no?

"Childhood is short,maturity is forever

Okay kids,I have a little reading assignment for you all, read the following lyrics:

All-O-gistics by the Descendents:

Halloween-Dead Kennedys:
http://plyrics.com/lyrics/deadkennedys/halloween.html

Minor Threat-Minor Threat:

http://plyrics.com/lyrics/minorthreat/minorthreat.html

Now,I want you to really think about what these lyrics are saying, the tones may be different,but they all share the same theme: A celebration of youthful freedom. However, consider the personas these frontmen exhibited: Ian was serious about uniting teenagers together to change the world, Jello was satire and sarcasm and Milo was, well, a kid: an awkward, lovelorn, goofy kid. Think back to your high school peers: they were underdeveloped, nervous about the future, and working out life in general. With all these stresses in life, adolescents either turned to snarkiness or retreated to their own little world of immature jokes and obsessions( farts,junk food,women,etc.) as a form of escape. They want to be their own person and understand the world on their own terms and enjoy themselves before adulthood hits. Thus, I think All-O-gistics captures this time of life. Minor Threat and Halloween seemed more like calls of action or moralistic statements: Individuality without actual appeal.

Bad Brains-I against I

The best of the hardcore bands gone metal records: starts out generic,but builds up a good rhythm by the third song.
