  • I stumbled across a video of some Mash-Up/Techno/DJ crap like Girl Talk and someone described it as "Hardcore." I want to strap half-wits like that to a chair and force then watch watch videos like this and then tell them to shut the fuck up. Jeez, if Techno/DJ Culture/Dub-Step is what passes for "Hardcore" these days, then we are leaving the future of our planet in the hands of a generation of pussies.

  • keith without his dreads???

  • Freddy Mercury on bass

  • so that was chuck.... does anyone else notice that they're playing on a nice stage with light effects, thats not what hardcore is about.

  • @stakias310 yeah totally.

  • Fuck HD there is nothing more real than this

  • hahaha

  • i like their fashion sense

  • oh hell yeah

  • Pure badassery.

  • eeesh never missed this music at allllllllll 

  • man chuck is oozing adrenaline, i hope to aspire to be like him one day.

  • They don't make punk like they used to. :( The older I get, the worse it gets as well.

  • @TurncoatTony punk hasn't gone anywhere. keep your spirits up.

  • @Conflikt420. Yeah R.A sucks. I was supposed to see them earlier this year, only because Bad Religion and The Descendents were opening up. Got my tickets but didn't get to make it. Hear the show sucked anyways, and the only good set were the descendents

  • Looooooooooooose

  • I remember this episode of what I cant remember but I do remember I looked forward to it...It was the 1st time "punk" the real shit was actualy on TV! Never on radio had to get from friends and a few shops and gigs...was it SNL? or fuck it my brain fried !@#$%^&*()_

  • i miss playin punk :(

  • I have all their albums.

    DK was better though.

  • Holy Shit !

  • remember seeing this live on NBC on a saturday night at like midnight.

    i was only 10 yrs old, but i knew this was it for me.

    circle jerks - one of the best american hardcore punk bands that ever graced a stage

  • holy shit i didnt know freddy mercury played bass for them! lol. he's supper tall compared to keith morris.

  • nicwe fuckin footage

  • Short and to the point.

  • Proper hardcore performance!

  • The frontman looks, sings and moves kinda "UK Subs" Charlie Harper

  • @Hollandia777 Keith Morris wasn't influenced by British Punks. When he helped form Black Flag they did so because they didn't like British Punk.

  • @hndsmepete Well, that's a bit another story!.. Anyway, thanx 4 ur info!

  • @hndsmepete Any old interview with Keith usually says otherwise. He has mentioned "great bands like the Clash and the Damned" several times.

  • @aloyzius6 And I've read plenty that stated that when they formed Black Flag the British scene wasn't a real influence. I remember reading one where he stated that he liked the first couple of Sex Pistols singles, but they didn't influence the kind of music he wanted to make. Mentioning bands that were active & touring is completely different than talking about the inspiration for them starting the band & the music they wrote.

  • @hndsmepete greg ginn in and interview said him and keith were inspired by the ramones more then the british waves and more into the proto punk bands like the stooges and mc5 and detroit protopunk/garage bands in general not british thats why they werent to political at first in black flag look at nervous breakdown ep no politics at all until keith went into circle jerks they were more political then black flag

  • @MichealZero1 Thank You! @aloyzius6 doesn't know what they are talking about.

    Also, the song Red Tape was written for Black Flag.

  • this excites me FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC­CCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!

  • harry hardcore rox

  • Biscuits is the best ever!!!!!

  • DANZIG

  • He's 55 now and kicking ass with OFF!

  • Good to see Keith Morris is wearing those gold epaulets as he deserves maximum respect as one of the best punk singers ever. He NEVER gives a half ass performance.

  • huh....I didn't know Freddy Mercury played bass for the Circle Jerks?

  • @jaehaus HAHAHAHAH exactly the same dude XD

  • how come everyone cant just enjoy the music and stop talking shit about the casualties

  • DON'T LET TRUE PUNK DIE

  • I love Circle Jerks....and especially after seeing this and how its making fun of Micheal Jackson in this video!

  • hey bro go fuck  yourself hows that for spelling dick!

  • Captain Keith is on vocals in this one

  • That Cap'n Crunch jacket makes me love Keith, the Circle Jerks, and life in general.

  • keith morris is the fuckin man and punk is not the same as it was because of emos and bands like rise against if u go to shows still u will find out theres a shitload of fuckin emos who go just to look cool and they can go kill them selves if thats what they want to do so bad theyd be doing us punx a favor

  • @cvhcdanny haha the last show i was at i didn't see a single emo kid. And you spelled "punx" wrong brah. Its "punks." Do us all a favor and destroy your casualties cd's, that or learn how to spell

  • @cvhcdanny Rise Against is a great band. If you've ever been to one of their gigs you will know that.

  • @EpicNoMore I've seen Rise Against. Went to see Rancid (who was opening, shockingly enough). I spent $40 on the ticket so I figured I'd stick around and try to get my money's worth. I couldn't tell one Rise Against song from another, they really all sound the same. Got bored and left early. They're lame.

  • @cvhcdanny Fist off, this is honestly the most ignorant fucking thing I've ever read. The six people who liked it should be loaded into a magnum and shot at a wall accordingly. RISE AGAINST is good,and I'm not some scummy little fuck who shops at hot topic.I'm from the NY scene, and I love bands like GERMS, Suicidal Tendencies,Minor Threat etc.but back in the 70's&80's kids looked just as "EMO".. all trends suck. So are "punx". but its about the music. close your mouth, open your eyes

  • Thanks so much for posting!!! I've been searching for this clip. Saw it on late night TV first run. It left quite an impression. And it's the Chuck Biscuits lineup!!!!

  • Look! It's Jeff Goldblum on vocals!! :-)

  • @derkommisar LOL! Not enough nervous stuttering though

  • @amnodeidyet FUCK YES!

  • The Circle Jerks and many other great bands deserve better than being equated with a bitch ass name like 'punk rock'. Fuck all the punks and their uniforms, this is about living and this is about soul! I love it! Again, fuck all the punks, just be you! I'm a person, not a punk, a better person for knowing about such fantastic music! Peace and the wonderful noise to you all!

  • CHUCK FUCKING BISCUTISSSSS!!!! ONE OF THE BEST PUNK DRUMMERS EVERRRRRR!!

  • @MrHuns he's still alive....lol

  • @TheMasterOfReality55

    you know he did a record with Run D MC..! maybe their hardest album ?

  • PICO RIVERA

    DRUNK

    PUNX

    

  • This guy is still singing.. I just caught the latest act OFF! when they toured Detroit

  • If anyone COULD do this today, they would be billion aires.

  • Is that the bass player from Husker Du?! 

  • @nervouswreck75 I was gonna say... who is that? 'cause it sure as heck ain't Xander. That's my age showing, though. I was only ten when this video was made and didn't find out about CJs until 1988.

  • Anyone know when Kevin Fitzgerald joined the band as the drummer?

  • pulento

  • a band called the medicine monkeys kinda reminds me of them. they are a locas band tho. really good live. check em on facebook

  • when did keith get his dreadlocks ?

  • CLASSIC!!!! They rock it right here pretty fierce. This line up was great. Biscuits going ape shit on drums. Earl killing it on bass. Hetson rocking. Keith in Michael Jackson gear going sick LOLOLLL For those that don't know, back then Michael Jackson would dress like that and sport mirrored Aviator shades hanging with that little kid Webster. Guess he was goofing on that superstar element. Anyways....this footage fucking rules!!!

  • islanders jersey fuck yeah

  • kinda looks like Michael j fox

  • @wackytabacky44 rofl looks like michael j fox you mean like the michael j fox that shcusk and jives or the one on the tv show when he was a teenagar?

  • @Brimboras like back to the future Michael j fox

  • Captain Crunch jacket !

  • holy shit hetson had hair!!!

  • this is moving. the real deal

  • sick islanders jersey on hetson

  • when Keith Morris turns 57 and is still singing at punk gigs it will prove that he dominated life !!!

  • @Brimboras need revolutionize the scene again with fresh blood, give "those" basturds something to worry on

  • @Brimboras PUNK DIED IN 1979 RETARD

  • @obsceneXerror your very dumb... punk died in 1994... when rancid and green day soldout...

  • @obsceneXerror you're a stillborn

  • @Brimboras Yeah, I saw him play with OFF! on Saturday at FYF, he gave my friend a boxed water and I caught the guitarist's guitar pick. Lucky us haha

  • @Brimboras Just turned 56 so only one more year!

  • @Brimboras Next year Keith will be 57, and looks like no reason for him and OFF! to be any less pissed so I think Keith will dominate.

  • The bass player, Earl, helped me out of a jam once. Good dude.

  • @sonicvisionmedia I wasn't sure, but I thought that was Earl. He went on to tour with Saccharine Trust at one point and I'll always remember when he got up to sing with Black Flag during T.V. Party. He had just lost a tooth and there's footage somewhere where he says one of the lines and the camera catches him at the right moment ~ very Addams Family look to it!

    This is great footage. Cheers!

  • Bullet Treatment is the only band as good as these guys.

  • Live Fast Die Young! That shit on my arm forever!!!!!

  • @jasaller you're going to die in a nursing home with it on your arm

  • epic circle jerks is epic.

  • 3 peoples are in Black Flag

  • @JipeMorin

    Just two I think: Keith (vocals) and Chuck (drums). Earl (bassist) was in Saccharine Trust. Greg was in Red Cross (Kross).

  • Nice Jacket Keith

  • Keith Morris, for me, is equally as iconic as Henry Rollins and Jello Biafra were in their day and didn't get the recognition they did. The Circle Jerks remain one of my all-time favorite Punk bands.

  • @KoenHead same here

  • IF YOUR NOT ENRAGED ABOUT THE WORLD TODAY, YOUR BLIND!

  • WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!­!

  • Note to all, the recordings do no justice go see them live and you will be floored

  • Drunk again, for the 3(!?) time commenting drunk. FUCK YA'LL! LIVE FAST DIE YOUNG!

  • I'm drunk again... probably commenting again... who cares? Fuck Mainstream & stuff... I'm blasting this trough my whole street.... playin' that on drums makes me feel so sick! FUCK IT ALL, FUCKING LIVE FAST DIE YOUNG! CIRCLE JERKS = ONE OF THE BEST BANDS EVER°!!!

  • Fuck we need Punk rock back!!!! Fuck today's world, and most of all: FUCK THE NWO!!! They are brainwashing today's youth with artists like: Miley Cyrus, Lady Gaga, Jonas Brothers, Justin Bieber, Lil Gay etc. Fuck that shit!!!!

  • @sniperdroid Yeah, I'm so happy that they don't got me, I'm 14 & loving real Punk and Subgenres of Punk... but these are just other labels (+ Labels suck!), just wanted to say, that the spirit of Punk still lives at least in my heart and will go on for the rest of my live. I'll never stop loving punk, 'cause Punk never stops impressing me with insanly indvulatity. Punk really got soul in it and who's there 4 cash can fuck themselves!

  • @sniperdroid Check ou Off!, Keith Morris' new punk band.

  • @07BSPtC Whats it called?

  • @sniperdroid Omg Don't even mention those names here. What are you, 12 ?

  • @agirotil No i'm not 12. And why can't i mention those names? It's the truth right? Better have kiddies to be aware of the dangers when they visit this video. Don't tell me what i can and can't do.

  • FUCK YEAH! LIVE FAST DIE YOUNG! Go on out, get some more! Let's get drunk, mates!

  • I love how when there's angry music like this, everyone on the comments gets pissed off at each other. Videos like this are a troll's paradise! I think I should get in on the action. Ahem: -insertbandnameyoulikehere- SUCK DONKEY CLITS!

  • @Picheta32192 insertbandnameyoulikehere is the greatest shut up!

  • I feel the energy from the drummer.

  • bass player is fucking huge!

  • why would i want to punch a baby?

  • @qwq45 its something a crazy person would do. i also said it hoping to piss you off. maybe it worked. lets just hope.

  • @JoshFuckingAlso why would you or anybody ''piss'' me off?you need to calm down,junior.by hoping to piss somebody off,all you are doing is aggravating yourself.do you like walking around,living life as a angry,miserable person?

  • @qwq45 actually, i was getting quite a kick out of this argument. im not angry by any means. i have actually been smiling at all of your stupid comments :D. and the fact that i always hate seeing these youtube arguments, yet i cant stop reading them. and now, im in one! yea!!! goal reached! but anyways, dont assume something about someone without a reasonable explanation. when this "flame war" started, it was because you were being an asshole. now you act like the sensible nice guy.last comment.

  • @JoshFuckingAlso you should have never commented in the first place,who except you would talk about ,punching babies and hoping to piss people off.and now you say that you actually smile while reading stupid comments.show your posts to your intimate circle,im sure they would think really high of you afterwards.

  • Hetsons got a full head of hair

  • what black flag should have been and more,if k stuck around.but no complaints here,we punks in the ,80s got two great hardcore bands for the price of one,werent we spoiled, these days.cant even find one mediocre punk band,theyre all garbage

  • @qwq45 Sir, Bad Religion haven't gone anywhere.

  • @GHDEFIANT WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU,ASKED YOU? AND WHO GIVES A SHIT ABOUT BAD BRAINS READ,THEN THINK THEN POST-SO YOU DONT MAKE A TOTAL IDIOT OF YOURSELF, SIR,THAT IS.

  • @qwq45 are you being a hypocrite to be funny, or are you just that fucking stupid?

  • @JoshFuckingAlso theres aiways that 1 retard,who thinks theve made a witty remark,even though theyve really tried.all that theyve accomplished is to make a fool of themselves.that retard is YOU.can you read,are you able to think of a logical response to what youve reads.your post says no,in facy youre a fucking retard.and the word youre looking for is sarcastic,not hypocrite.give a retard a computer and @josh is the result

  • @qwq45 i was refering to when you told GHDEFIANT to think before they posted, and said "who gives a shit about bad brains" in the same sentence. GHDEFIANT was talking about bad religon. you lose. you are a hypocrite. you are also very angry. go punch a baby you crazy fuck lol.

  • Get fucked up! On the floor!

  • When I was a kid, this was my favorite band! And now I remember why!

  • that shit is incredible.

  • This song was originally written and recorded by Redd Kross when they were still "Red Cross", and Greg Hetson was in the band. It appears on their first e.p. "Red Cross", under the song title "Cover Band". Once the Circle Jerks got going the song evolved into this version. Both versions kick fucking ass.

  • @666leahciM I remember Red Cross!

  • Comment removed

  • @devilred1971 you're a brilliant man devilred, I couldn't have said it better myself

  • @devilred1971 This song is a perfect metaphor for real punk and just hardcore punk music itself. Quick and done.

  • You could really tell he wanted to say it at 1:04

    "Get fucked up, pass out on the floor!!!"

  • My band covered this once and it is one of the most fun songs to play ever.... EVER.

  • Their fuckin playin october 8th in chicago for riot fest!!! Fuckin epic

  • What a line up...

  • that's lucky on drums

  • Fuck The World! I wish Punk were still offensive....

  • @ColonelBolognaJr97 I started a band a week ago, we went to a party, and I played naked and slapped a girl with my dick. Hope that's offensive enough for you.

  • @TedSmegma Hell yeah

  • @TedSmegma don't worry, we're cuttin a demo soon.

  • now this is punk rock!

  • This is when everybody wanted to be a punk rock. By 1981 sept punk hit the main stream and alot of the guy's I knew started to switch over to speed metal. I was at the last Germ gig at the Starwood in Hollywood when Darby died that week. You can hear my brother on the white record when it was record there.

  • FUCK YEAH, THATS ABOUT IT!

  • I never understood why Keith is wearing that get-up, 'til a friend years ago said he is wearing one glove like Michael Jackson. Awesome!

  • love the circle jerks

  • I never knew Freddie Mercury played bass for the Circle Jerks.

  • LOL at the mercury joke.
