Thanks. It's good to see they've responded to my concern. :)

I went and saw Youth Brigade Friday night. Turns out they don't think it's funny when you call them Middle Age Brigade.

Giuda. Mix of early punk rock and 70's glam.

Reeeally like this one, very Ramones-eque, good and simple punk rock.

Damn, that has the same raw energy as an 18 wheeler hitting a brick wall... love it.

Yeah, yep... this is excellent, this IS punk rock in my estimation.

Should've known to check out anything Robo-Chachi played, anyone who's even aware of the LHO band is surely very cool.

On a sad note, it turns out one of my old time punk hero's is mortal after all.

The Exploited’s Wattie Buchan is in hospital after suffering a heart attack

British punk-legends THE EXPLOITED have been forced to cancel their forthcoming tour dates with label-mates HATEBREED and cease all activities until May 2014.

Singer Wattie Buchan suffered a heart attack on stage during the band’s concert last night (Thursday, February 13) in Lisbon, Portugal during the “Tour Of Chaos” with HATEBREED and NAPALM DEATH.

THE EXPLOITED have released the following statement: ”We are sorry to say that due to a severe illness that Wattie can’t continue with the tour. He will be in hospital for at least a week. Thanks for all the get-well messages. Much appreciated. Regards.”

Never really got into the hardcore scene, was always more interested in mod/ska lineage aspect about it The Specials > The Clash > The Jam > Operation Ivy > Choking Victim, though I do enjoy some Rudimentary Peni and Minor Threat from time to time. I upthefolkpunx these days:
