when i call myself a punk, you have to keep in mind that i'm a gen xer and not a millennial, so my concept of punk is that it was thoroughly dead and buried by about 1985 or so. i don't tend to enjoy much of anything that calls itself punk and has been released after 1990 unless it's pretty dominantly retro, and would usually even reject the label - most people under 40 that call themselves punks are more like metalheads than punks relative to my own understanding of the term, and i tend not to get along with them very well. i would argue that punk culture mostly evolved into rave culture after 1985, and, nowadays, i have more in common with people that listen to techno.
but, i still like a good artsy punk band when i can find one....
this is a little bit too heavy for my tastes, overall. but it's abstract. if it was nice out, i may have wanted to go out sort of thing, but i would generally not listen to music that is this loud.
it's getting a lot of good reviews though, and i can see why. they remind me a little of a cross between fucked up and touche amore, who were among the more interesting acts in the previous wave of punk bands.
