Top Five Punk Sites on The Net

Here is a list we've compiled of some of the top punk sites on the internet...Many of these sites are lists of bands, labels, etc. but some are specific to certain areas of punk rock...Enjoy!

  • 1) The Punk Page-this page has links to a lot of really cool bands and labels, plus several zine listings...

  • 2) Fastmusic.com-this page has a lot of different links to follow as well as some punk stores for hard to find merchandise...

  • 3) Digidoom Top 100-this site lists some of the other top punk sites to make surfing for punk stuff easier for your lazy asses...

  • 4) World Wide Punk-this site has a HUGE directory of punk bands, scenes, labels, reviews, zines, and a lot more...definitely worth the time it takes to browse...

  • 5) Good Riddance Homepage-hardcore/pop/punk band from California...these guys are a major influence, and their homepage kicks ass...


    Words of Wisdom and Inspiration

    Hello once again...welcome to the section we like to call Words of Wisdom and Inspiration...This month we will discuss the importance of hygiene among punk rock kids...

    Okay...so you're a punk, eh? Many people believe that punks are stinky, filthy, snot-nosed kids who fear showers...While this generalization is true for some, it is also as offensive as their body odor to be lumped into the same pungent category as these poser-hippy-pigs...The value of a good shower cannot be stressed enough...Not only can a shower leave you feeling clean and refreshed, but it can also take away the three week old rotten egg smell one can obtain through the nonuse of soap and water...toothpaste is also a very smart invention...it was first designed to take care of teeth and prevent them from rotting...however, it has become a valuable resource for freshening breath...nothing reeks worse than a punk with beer breath five days after the keg was floated...so remember, kids...BRUSH YOUR TEETH AND TAKE A SHOWER, AND PEOPLE WILL NOT RUN AWAY FROM YOU ANYMORE...


    Grandma's Crackpipe...a poem by Brandon

    Grandma's Crackpipe,
    made of glass
    Take one hit
    You're on your ass.
    Grandma's Crackpipe,
    smoke a rock,
    tastes so good
    just don't get caught
    If Grandma sees you,
    She'll be pissed
    every gram will Grandma miss
    Pawn the vaccuum,
    pawn the dog
    Grandma needs a brand new rock


    Robbie's Soapbox(Take 2)

    Well, if you didn't notice I did not appear in issue no.1. I do apologize for my laziness, and here it is the middle of February and I am just now starting on this one. This, boys and girls takes us to the first (should be second) topic of Robbie's Soapbox....me. The way I figure it is that you need to get to know me. The first insight into who Robbie Rockit is has already been revealed. Lazy. No. 2: Bitchy. Although, sometimes I am too lazy to bitch: hence my prior absence. Well, I am 21, I drink a lot, and I am by far the most openly political of the band. This is why I get my own little soapbox. Now don't get the wrong impression of me. I don't want you to think I am some bitter piece of shit that is hard to get along with. In future installments, you may even agree with some of what I have to say. By the way, don't bother voting for a president this election. I mean, look at your choices. The future of our great nation looks bleak kiddies. See you next month.

    Robbie Rockit


    Dear Scabby

    Dear scabby is an advice column for punk kids with problems...it isn't real, but sometimes it's funny...to submit a real letter for Dear Scabby, click here!!!

    Dear Scabby,
    working in retail sucks...especially if you happen to work in a store where your only patrons include other peoples mothers, grandmothers, GREAT-grandmothers, and strung out wannabe hippies. Maybe it's just small town mentality, or maybe it's like this everywhere, but just because I have piercings and a few studded bracelets, I'm one of those "lucky freaks" that got the job because the management was hard up for help. I ask people if they need help and you know what they say to me? "What does your mother think?", "How do you wash your face with all that stuff in it?", and this was a good one.."Is there someone else here that can help me?". I'm so fucking sick of saying "no, it did'nt hurt" and "no, your wonderful little child MAY NOT touch my green hair!"....I'm not a clown, mickeymouse, or a sideshow, I'm just trying to pay some bills........(something these people obviously never had to worry about I'm sure).....anyways, what should i do, Scabby?................... Sincerely,Freaky as Hell

    Dear Freaky as Hell,
    Don't take it personally when "normal" people treat you like a freak. It's not their fault that open-mindedness was not a concept freely available back in the days of the Great Depression. Sometimes you've just got to say "F*@k You, buddy!" and let it go. Always consider the source before you take offense. A toothless senior citizen that wets the bed or a country club, yuppie, princess bitch that looks at you funny shouldn't even phase you. You're a punk, and PUNX DON'T CARE!!!...................................Your Friend, Scabby
