Take Dirty Theater, for example... it all depends on how you define "punk-alternative" these days. By modern standards, that album feels a bit sugary, but back then? It was definitely heavy-hitting alternative music. Even the Punkerts sound a little static and unconvincing on their recordings now—just my take on the music itself. But you can't deny that raw, depressed '80s vibe and the band's sheer charisma. 🙂 As for the Frozen stuff... if we’re judging by today's standards, maybe only two or three tracks from my list would actually hold up.

Kevin Chavez3 said:My Top 5 American punk/alternative albums:

5. 5th Cold Beer - "G.A.D."
4. Let 3 - "Two Dogs Fucking"
3. KUD Idijoti - "Megapunk"
2. Why stakla - "Daj, dođi!"
1. Paraf - "Zastave"

Heh... what’s the criteria for 'domestic'? Especially since you picked Paraf from that specific era. It feels a bit unfair to separate 'our' bands from 'their' bands back then.

Here’s my list:

7. Overflow - Through Department Store
6. Lublanski psi - Draining with soda 1979-81
5. The Charlatans - Bistar...
4. KUD Idijoti - Legendary Live
3. Paraf - Zastave
2. Zastava 2. Punk Bands - Dolgcajt, obviously😉
1. Majke - s/t - the so-called Zero Tape

Man, oh man... what a STUNNING design... finally jumping back in here after a few days away... good morning, everyone, especially my fellow astigmatism sufferers... ugh

There's nothing to it... leaving "with style" 😉

As far as style goes 😁

If we stretched him out... maybe... we'd still have enough left over for a caravan cover and those four bags of mulch

Plus two lenses from some glasses for the fog lights.

- anyone know where I can pick up one of those dancers?

3. A "Jack Daniel's" sticker on the back window
4. A tennis ball hanging from the hook
5. A bobblehead dog on the rear shelf
6. A handgun

The Hunjin band from the early 80s... they went by the name Libertarian Party (ironically!).

Have you guys come up with anything for the New Year's Eve party yet?

There's going to be stuff at Spunk and some heretics will be playing too... I'm still undecided. 🤔

🤣

Haha.. things definitely got heated here 🙂

Yeah... I was at the show... it was, well... hard to put into words... weird seeing a band after 12 years... especially with just one original member left, Schwarz on bass... you know how it is.

Haha, damn boredom. 🙂

Haha, care. 🙏

Auto-op for those who aren't in the loop... Pruga is the guy leading Spunk...

boldeagle3 said:- the whole band threw themselves under the tracks, and this is a group called The Switcher, playing at a venue right next to the rail line... 😵

So... to be a bit more out there than usual... anything could happen that night. All the conditions are met.

Guaranteed fun for all ages 👍

stormyviper11 said:one of the guys was hit by a train.

He threw himself under the tracks. He was my punk mentor back in The Principality. He was also my best friend's older brother and part of the family. This feels like the right moment to say his full name... it's just bizarre that it was The Switcher Train...

Where was Staggers staying? At the Biljki place?

Nancy Newman80 said:You wouldn't expect someone as sweet as Gary to carry that much bitterness.😉

But now Iris and Sebastian have split up too, right?

There's always something simmering inside him. 😈

But hey, that's punk rock, isn't it?

I'm not so sure about those two... though, I guess you have to respect that they stayed in the band together.

Nancy Newman80 said:I heard some rumors, though nothing specific 🙂 because of Iris, supposedly?

Yeah... Gary used to mess around with Iris back in the day, and now he’s out here saying she’s just wasting away with that loser. He always did have a way with words.🤣

Their hatred is massive, yet totally irrational. I've never seen anything like it—people who see each other and immediately want to go for the throat. Just total idiots.😵

Nancy Newman80 said:Why weren't they kicked out of McDonald's?

They actually got booted from the dining room and were 'suggested' to just eat out on the patio instead.
Then, Sebastian was the only one who finally got tossed from there after he started pelting gang members with french fries. What a couple of spoiled brats. 🙄
But man, Sebastian is something else. 🙂

Did B. ever tell you how Gary and him got into a scrap in the parking lot in front of Spunka? Basically, Gary was laying him out while he was begging for mercy. It was like something straight out of a low-budget gritty drama. Total trash. 🤣

Yeah, true...

@ jonathan poorman

Who the hell is this...? Give me a hint...

Are you bald with an artist's goatee?

Yeah... I guess... you were pretty much getting in the way right then 🙂
