first you just need to update your adblock and you won't get ads from youtube any more, i just did so a couple three weeks ago, very happy

as far as old right wing punkers, idk, i guess TIL that exene is still alive

but i can't say much since i'm blanking on any punk song being produced since 2006...

if some punk rockers are wingers so be it...i'm not sure i need to get my politics from kids who dropped out of school at age 17, why not enjoy them for what they do and ignore them when they say stupid stuff and everybody goes away happy?

i am mainly posting in hopes that someone will link to some new punk songs, i love the dead kennedys and the clash but ffs i can't listen to the same tunes for this many decades, i need some strange, help me out here people!

You could be right. Miret's ex-wife, at the time they were married, was in the crust punk/ nomorenomore08 Sep 2013 #25
