They are not Afropunk band they are PUNK ROCK BAND. afropunk is just a new lame way to label black punk & rock bands.

[oramikleepunk]

I agree with you,and i'm black.This is why punk is dead...Punks were punks...not this label stuff that Afro-punk is doing today.

[adrienfourniercom]

I can't believe that: American punks made festivals qualified by the colour of the skin!!

What a bunch of racists cunt. Soooo lame.

I hope it's joke, bcs that can be a fun one, a cinical racist one thus.

I wanna create a left-handed-green-eyes-one-leg­ged scene.

Please apply.

duches marketers.

The 7" is great still have the copy



[one2ian]

used to have this single and it did rock.... anybody out there have a copy?

[ecopunk66]

Good to see it on here but nowhere near as good as the single! it absolutely rocked!!!!!!

Those of us who weren't there for the first wave just missed out in that respect and there's nothing we could ever do about it. Punk was only NEW once.

As far as I'm concerned the most important part is in your head. It's not in "impressing people", knowing a list of the most popular bands, or whatever. I'm just glad that punk happened. the heyday of bikers is over and you still see those guys out riding with grey beards, I'm gonna keep doing my thing. Do your thing and have fun.

@VideogeekinMD haha...whatever man. punk rock turned into a subculture, and I have been in that subculture since I was a kid, so I don't care what anybody calls me. Long before The Haterz I had enough "credibility" for myself, which is what counts...not what society thinks about you.

[VideogeekinMD]

@XioJester True, and really anything that I learned, you don't call yourself a punk rocker. That screams of poser actually. You have credibility though, From "The Haterz", to drinking 50 beers in a row and beating up Billie Joe Armstrong.

@oramikleepunk I'm black also, and I've been apart of Afro-Punk since like day 1. The boards have changed and adapted over time. Afro-Punk is a label that goes even farther back than even the movie. The point of Afro-Punk was more or less a gathering point for people that had this awkward feeling. Whether it's self-inflicted or genuine. Afro-Punk isn't a genre, it's a movie that people identified with.

This same here,and i'm 30...i got into punk within the late 80's-early 90's...what they call punk today is not the music of the old days.I dislike Afro-punk...it's some trend to make money.
