[Big d(A)ddy G]

Tell us about bands from New Zealand.

YouTube - Flight of the Conchords Ep 6 Bowie's In Space

 

[.B.]

Cheers for your replys.

I dunno what kind of punk I look like at first? Fashion Punx AS probably.

Bands in New Zealand were rad for last year but some of the best ones broke up at the end of the year, anyway these are the bands that I reckon are the best:
Smashin' off
The Wrongmen
Strangers
Tentacles of Destruction
Wasteland
Shortlived
Scab (cant find a link, too punk)
Punchbowl
Gaylordz

This is what the quiz says:

What Kind Of Punk Are You? You scored as a old school punk
old school punk 28%
Oi Oi Oi 25%
Gutter Punk 22%
Pop Punk 19%
sell out punk 13%

As for the kind of stuff I'm into... I guess a fair bit of D-beat type stuff, metallic crust hardcore, thrash and sometimes a little bit of straight up hardcore.
I like stuff like: The Holy Mountain, Asshole Parade, From Ashes Rise, Tragedy, Cobra Noir, Crux, Victims, Fucked up, DS-13, Diskonto, Minor Threat, Cursed, Cryptic Slaughter, 9 shocks terror, Skitsystem, World burns to death... etc.

I can't wait to check out some Irish bands I tried to go to that gig on Friday but got real lost wandering around in the dark without a map after only being here for one day. By next weekend I should know my way around a bit better, I hope.

 

[AnarchoBob]

What's the deal with The Troubles? I have hardly heard anything about them in the past over 6 months besides the Restarts gig. Are they getting up to much?

And most importantly, what the hell happened to the Hypocrites?!?

I missed it, Stink huh?

Yeah I got that workshy split i think the Crux one? or the Death with a dagger one? They were a fuckin' sweet band. Sam from Workshy is in Shortlived and in Scab so if you like Workshy you should check both of those bands out.

Also wheres a good part of Dublin to live? Anyone need a flatmate?
