too netcreeper, you just don't get it and prolly never will! music use to open people's minds, then it stopped and became oppressive becuz of cockrockers...then punk made music fun again...does that help you dummie?
@netcreeper40210 yes it is in the way that artist like piccaso sucked according to those who question the dadaist belief that an idea outweighs actual physical content. punk minimalism is a statement against a world that is not always perfect and beautiful like an episode of the brady bunch, but punk is varied and there are other things to be said an ideas to be expressed so talent also has a place in punk.
It's funny listening to people question Flipper's "punk authenticity" because they didn't go by the traditional rulebook. They did their own thing and played their own style of music and didn't give two shits whether people liked it or not, isn't that what punk is supposed to be about?
@TheGreaterGood80 i think the casualties said it best, "punk has gone through changes, from spiky hair to long..." wait, what?! I thought we were against rules, structure, and uniforms, DUMBASS!
@krankpuff Ah, yes, because forgetting lyrics to your band's own song is "trying SO hard". The guys did not give a fuck what you thought about them and they still don't (one of the many reason I praise them), numbnuts.
They are trying hard to sound punk , and they are shitty and boring at doing so. So do you praise the Germs too just because Darby didnt give a shit about what people thought about him? Darbys lyrics are actually good , this band sucks.
@krankpuff Hahahahaha. Wait, wait. Hahahahaha. You are such a fucking idiot. First of all, are you even listening to the lyrics? Second, Hahahahahaha. Let me write that again; HAHAHAHAHAHA. You are exactly like the audience at Flipper shows that afterwards complained, bitched and moaned how much this band sucks and they can't play their instruments. YET THOSE GUYS SHOWED UP EVERY WEEK TO SEE THE BAND THAT SUCKED.
@SettleForNothing Their main objective was to piss you off and, apparently, they are still doing a great job at it after more than 20 years. Hahahaha. But don't worry, keep coming over here and keep giving this "sucky video" more views and comments. Please, idiot, come back!
Look at you , not understanding anything and even replying to yourself. You are a complete dumbfuck , keep listening to this shitty band and never move unto real punk , thanks.
Punk/Hardcore officially died by '86. It's over now go home. Better yet, let's make something for our generation. Something as raw and pure as punk. Let's shit on that screamo/emo crap as well as the mainstream. I'm ready for it.
Awesome song! Awesome band! Awesome musical inspiration for Kurdt Kobain. And whadaya know...This song is 4:20 long! Lets burn one for Flipper and the late, great Kurt Cobain!
@DrShigo uh no fuckface you have the trouble with the fact the flipper was way before green day.... green day lost their punk spirit 15 years ago and went on mtv and sold out to masses of idiots like you
@DrShigo heroin? calling me a junkie just cause im a fan of flipper? i smoke weed you dumb motherfucker!!! makes me laugh your a narrow minded cocksucker that don't know jack shit go listen to your pop punk garbage you piece of shit, funny how youtube jack offs like you that are not a fan of flipper and a green day fanatic can come on this page and talk shit about a band that was original in its own right. Flipper Still Rules, Okay! and you don't...... therefore fuck off and die
I love how genuine this is. you can see them mess up but it makes the song even better because it's real. and the music is nothing like I've ever heard. LOVE it!!!!
there are sometimes where this is too abrasive to enjoy, and other times where it feels like these guys are the only people who really understood punk rock
Seeing this band live at the 'Island' in Houston TX was a good enough reason for myself and some friends to start a band. These guys were fun, self effacing dirge-core monoliths. I would guess the Butthole Surfers might have been influenced by then.
@jamesandrew2000 Flipper's shows were great and showed everyone that they could do it too. You didn't have to be a rock star to have an audience in 1980. Man, these shows were fun.
You do know that though these bands were all in the same scene, the sounds of the bands were radically different. Flipper was a slower, noise rock oriented sound, compared to Black Flag's blues rock and metal orientation (at least in the later years) and Bad Brains was jazz fusion reggae all fused into the speed of early hardcore. So really to compare them is impossible, given the difference in the bands.
They are awesome, true enough. Flipper and Black Flag epitomize 80's hardcore.
Flipper had it's moments..especially in the Tenderloin in S.F. Or at the Mabuhai on Broadway. I Am The Wheel Had to be seen to be appreciated...great trance tune. I always remember the black dude from the street in his beat blue suit somehow managed to get into the club (he was broke and smashed) and somehow wound up on stage singing his heart out, oblivious to whatever the band was doing. We were all tripping that night.and I couldn't find my car for about an hour. a classic night.
when i was junkie back in early 80s i loved listening to these guys still do nothing like a big hit of coke with these guys cranked up loud woot!!!man how did i make it out of the 80s no idea 5 overdoses and 2 alcahol induced comas WOOT!!! i win roflmao HAIL SATAN!!!!
i really like distortion and the raw sound but they over do it. i dont like flipper that much i just like two songs from them but just the guitars out of tune rawness is just overdone.
1) I met them a few days ago, and their entire discography is going to be online in about a week. Google 'flipper download.'
2) They're releasing the new album in January. They played some of the songs live, and, I kid you not, it may be better than Generic Flipper. They now have Krist's ultra-powerful bass lines.
3) Flipper (still) rocks. They were the funniest, friendliest guys ever. Except Falconi almost got thrown out of his own gig by the bouncer, and Bruce ruined the pro-Obama event with this nihilist speech about society relapsing into 'primordial ooze.'
yeah, you're right. maybe something caved, cuz Krist just left the band like a week ago. I dunno. I still think the new album is gonna be in january, though.
@Sloggerbum the love album is awesome but to compare it to generic i slightly disagree on that generic and gone fishin will remain above that record although that and the live album fight is amazing
Flipper crushes the souls of the weak. There is only Flipper, everything else is shit. Ted Falconi is going to park his van in your front yard and use his force powers to tickle your tiny outlook on life, making you wonder if you have ever really existed!
This was one of the bands that made you feel like getting a band together, so we did. I read the sad negative stuff about these 80s noise bands and without fail, it is some 20yo that has never done anything interesting and/or still living at home jacking off.
i never understood the whole _______ Rules, OK? or _______, OK? could someone explain that to me? ive seen stuff like Flipper rules, ok? on old punk pictures but can someone explain if they made that up?
This has very little if anything to do with the Pistols or the Clash,this is something different altogeter,and oh and only the English can do punk,try Black Flag,The Circle Jerks,The Dead Kennedys,The Bad Brains and countless other hardcore avatars,oh and before the clash,sex pistols or any remnant of English Punk,The Velvet Underground,The Stooges,The MC5,Suicide and the New York Dolls,now you say Americans can't do punk!!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
These guys are trying to copy the Sex Pistols and The Clash......it's sooooo obvious.......One problem though....Punk is English and it will stay English so no American band...or a punk band from anywhere else but the U.K. will be able to play REAL punk...but hey don't get me wrong these guys have some punk charm about them.....and they're good.....but they'll never be great punk legends....and hey sorry if I offended someone here....I didn't mean to slag off your country or anything <3
@MCRPATRIOT sex pistols and the clash? fuck off flipper was very unique and original and never sold themselves short for commerciality mainstream.johnny rotten said on the history of rock n roll that he wouldnt tour with the pistols because he said it bacame too much of like a rolling stones big arena bullshit then 20 years after they broke up they reunited the pistols for a huge arena tour that was gonna make them alotta money sex pistols are sell outs for that one
@jacobladders no you fuck off. johnny rotten and the sex pistols are great. you say flipper was very unique and original? well so is johnny rotten, pal. he never flat out said he wouldn't do a reunion with the pistols. who cares if he did? their his songs! he has a right to reform the band if he wants to. i don't care if he did it for fun, for money, for attention, etc. it doesn't fucking matter at all. consider them sellouts if u want, but then put on nmtb and shut up 'cause u know it's great.
The play so fucking sloppy, and like "meh. yeah, we'll play but to our time". LOL. I just bought this guys dvd Flipper Live 1980-1981, I really need to get this one. I walked into the store and asked if they had any flipper shirt...what a fucking moron. Excuse me while I'll go make my own shirt.
I can't f'ng believe this is on here. I saw these guys in Sacramento in 82. Man, I owned that stage. Drunk and majorly disorderly. I can almost smell th B.O. in the hall.
Nirvana got influensed by a lot of bands like Flipper, Mudhoney and such, but they just sold out, when they made "Nevermind", and that made them famous. Other bands may still be pretty infamous, but atleast they kept it real..

@jacobladders no you fuck off. johnny rotten and the sex pistols are great. you say flipper was very unique and original? well so is johnny rotten, pal. he never flat out said he wouldn't do a reunion with the pistols. who cares if he did? their his songs! he has a right to reform the band if he wants to. i don't care if he did it for fun, for money, for attention, etc. it doesn't fucking matter at all. consider them sellouts if u want, but then put on nmtb and shut up 'cause u know it's great.

The play so fucking sloppy, and like "meh. yeah, we'll play but to our time". LOL. I just bought this guys dvd Flipper Live 1980-1981, I really need to get this one. I walked into the store and asked if they had any flipper shirt...what a fucking moron. Excuse me while I'll go make my own shirt.

Nirvana got influensed by a lot of bands like Flipper, Mudhoney and such, but they just sold out, when they made "Nevermind", and that made them famous. Other bands may still be pretty infamous, but atleast they kept it real..

It's better to be infamous then to be famous.
