Darby Crash was an amazing lyricist, a terrible singer, however his performances were legendary, and as far as the warped tour, the event itself has become very uncredible with advertisements for energy drinks and useless garbage everywhere. Lots of the bands on warped tour critisized the Germs for re-uniting simply to make money, but im sure they're pleased with their checks from Kevin Lyman.
Darby was actually very intelegent with the writing process. He was considered more a performance art type singer less than a regular singer, and most of the time he was on some sort of hard drug.
All you kids need to shut up. I can tell you this.Darby was shit live and would not sing into the mic.He was also strung out and the band would play on with him or with out him.He usually was in his own world during sets.You can tell.Very unproffecional.At least Shane West sang into the mic.
1. the new movie was made with the band's blessing. 2. how much money are "corporate slugs" going to make off of a movie about a long dead punk band fronted by a singer that died the day after john lennon? 3. darby only wrote the lyrics, and not the actual songs. let the band play them. they probably made about 40 cents from warped tour and the few club shows they played.
not to be a dick but this is ridiculous, darby's ashes are probly blowing around where every they are, this is treason, i was taking this lightly but i know i have friends who would rreally be pissed, well, i guess as long as pat makes some money like he did when he played with foo fuckers
"Oldhead punk purists" atleast have some sense of integrity with music. Do you have any concept of why its wrong to use The Germs name when the frontman of the original band is dead? Use your damn brain you fat wreck chords listening 12 year old.
Shane was 2 years old when Darby died, he never saw the Germs and probably never heard of them until he did that lame ass movie. Pat and Don have lost sight of what really matters and now they're selling out to a bunch of teenage poser who don't even know who the Germs are, just that they're a "retro" band that would look cool on a T-shirt. Screw anyone who's supporting this bastardized version of a once great band.
pat smear has bad luck in bands the lead singers kill them selves

I agree Joy Division- Ian Curtis= New Order, why they cannot use a new moniker is beyond me.
