I never thought Blondie was punk. They hung out with punks and Debbie Harry looked good in photos but they were just a 70s pop band. “Call Me,” however, is as punk as this album gets. Billy Joel? I mean, I guess he kind of looks like Steve Jones but he’s the pianoman. “Crazy Little Thing Called Love” is probably Queen’s gayest song. Rick Ocasek and The Knack had sunglasses and wore skinny ties but they never gave anyone the finger. Fuck this record.

  4. Cap'n Glitterfuzz Says:

    No, I don’t have that record. But I’ll swap you a Goodbye Yellow Brick Road or a Purple Rain for it.


  5. Partial Abortion Says:

    Blondie was post-punk and Debbie Harry had abortions galore, which makes her like wicked punk.


  6. Brian Says:

    “abortions galore” is a pretty good band, actually.

    Maybe in the chipmunks world this shit was mad rebellious. i mean David was always nagging them and such. Billy Joel does get wicked drunk and crash lots of things..

    you have got to be fucking either gavin or pinky (or both?) there’s no other excuse for why they agree to put up your bullshit posts. “hey guys, I found this record in the dollar bin that everyone in the world already knows about, can I type seven useless sentences about it and put it on the website?”

    ^ Sorry, but you’re incorrect.

    Fagrabbit was punk as fuck. Try out Happy and Drunk, or Stone Man Glass Woman.


  19. Pussy Pope Says:

    Discussing what’s punk and what’s not = Not punk


  20. Pussy Pope Says:

    Commenting on people who comment on punk = owns multiple cats and weighs 150+ lbs.


  21. Books & Backpacks Says:

    Commenting on that puts you where, Pussy Poop?

Being straight edge as a kid is a great way to rebel against: puking, getting pregnant, and wrapping your parent’s car around a tree.

“Wiggers” is a mean word that stings like a motherfucker but, somehow, “Bonkies” doesn’t pack the same wallop.

Pulling back your sleeve to show your tattoos seems queer but that’s what tattoos are: accessories.

You may have noticed there’s a lot of music industry chicks at SXSW all dressed up with no interest in you whatsoever. You may have also noticed you’re not in a band.
