S.L.F ...THE CLASH ...true punk bands ......the sex pistols 4 me offered nothing to the punk revolution except a way of making money which 4 me was commercialism
I had to break from Joe for a while. Jumping around Strummerville stuff, I find this hidden treasure. I know the band name, but didn't hear/realize the music if I had heard it over the years.
This group has the best audience shots of what the Punk Era was like that I've seen on u-tube - fantastic - very nostalgic - a very short lived Era that had alot of energy!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the realiuzation isd that these cats were real punk an d the sex pistols were just kinda cute an d cuddly....but really real punks know that what stiff l;f did is still relevant today to an american and we are still punk cuz we need to get what we deserve..
I first heard them in 1980 and they just grab your soul. The times I was able to see them in the States, 81' and 87 I think, were an absolute treat. I saw them again in 2010 and they didn't lose a beat. After all these years still smokin' hot, raw, fast, dynamic, emotion filled and their music has a meaning. This is why I've always dug UK Subs, which are my other favorite all time band. Long Live SLF
they were a good band, and Henry is a good mate of mine and agrees to a certain degree there were more 'punk' bands over here than slf we had Rudy who were amazing, Ruefrex, The Outcasts who were great, Shock Treatment etc... bands who never made it and didnt care cos they are still around in some form or another and like me are in their 40's and 50's
if u ask me these where the real punks. they lived in northern ireland as strummer said. if punk was hard then ulster was war zone. these where the real punks with no money for equipment they had to sell themselves making theyre own records etc best punk band alongside the clash and sex pistols
@xbinarysunsetx Ha! The Pistols were a boy band, stylist, svengali manager,'controversial' marketing campaign etc. Read the lyrics of GSQ 'She made you a moron'.

@punkrockenpunk except the sex pistols were nothing but a cleverly engineered marketing campaign for a bondage shop

I don't recall Gary Barlow or Ronan Keating being beaten up for their art like Lydon and Cook.
