Probably not going to find this band on any best-of lists, but one of my favorite punk bands.





Not the most original band in the world (they’re clearly Misfits fans), but Leslie Hardy (briefly of Hole) absolutely rips on the organ.
 
Listened to nothing but Gang of Four in the car today. Why had I not done this earlier. Why had no one ever told me before that this is the most up my street music ever? A bunch of Marxist punks making music that all my favourite mid 00s band ripped off shamelessly?
 
When I was going to a lot of punk shows as a teenager these were my favorite live acts. The Queers are pretty solidly at the top.

The Queers
Link 80 (only heard live recordings, never got to see)
Knowledge
Misfits
Pinhead Circus
Anti-Flag
Bad Religion
Lagwagon
Black Flag
Ramones
Against All Authority
Jack Off Jill
Love the Queers! It’s too bad their best album has a title that aged terribly. I remember getting into them from a compilation they put out which had an excellent cover of The Who on it.

They're from your backyard. You're supposed to be telling us about them. Do you expect us to do everything? 😁
