This was after changing on Monday to fit the weather.So I've been trying to live all "Embrace yourself/finger to the masses". This thinking and this outfit inspired my post today. I've been into a lot of bad music over the years. A LOT. And between the ages of 18-21 it seemed to have peaked. I could blame this on an ex boyfriend but that wouldn't be fair considering I still listen to some of this music every once and a while. I'm slightly embarrassed to write this list but here's a few...
Misfits
The Descendants
Social Distortion
Against Me!
Hot Water Music
The clash
Fifteen
Dropkick Murphy's
NOFX
Bad Religion
Back then, fresh outta mom and pop's, and newly graduated I was in an extremely rebellious stage of my life. Screw it all, get screwed up, screw, screw drivers, bong loads, red bull, jagermeister, fernet, suicide notes....blah blah. It was a blur of red hair, piercings, blond hair, short hair, skunk hair and I was pleasantly plump. I'm very surprised I'm not covered in awful tattoos. I was probably just trying to impress previously mentioned ex boyfriend who was older and "oh so cool". And even though I'm glad it's over, I can't help feeling nostalgic when hearing this music. So obnoxiously raw. So annoying sometimes you want to turn it off immediately but turning it up and forcing yourself to listen make you feel more pumped up and rebellious.
This is still one of my favorite bands. Well around their "Sink Florida Sink" album. Now they're sadly over produced and old. Such is how it ends.
I've never heard of Crass or Jawbreaker until I met Julia. These are for her...
