    Memorial to Pope John Paul at punk gig in Wrocław, Poland with Scottish band Oi Polloi. The police allowed the gig to go ahead despite the week of mourning to the late Pope as long as some symbols of respect were displayed.

  7. I’m keen to find some more #punk folk on here but realise the word means so many different things to people. So was wondering what punk #music means the most to you? Who are the #bands that you come back to time and time again?

    For me I’m forever marked by the childhood induction into the scene through a holy trinity (to me) of #DeadKennedys #BadReligion and #GreenDay that gave me an enduring love for political, thoughtful, but melodic and harmony-strewn music with a good dose of introspective personal stuff thrown in for good measure.

    Becoming a punk in the mid-90s, of course #NoUseForAName, #BouncingSouls, #Rancid, #Descendents, #Lagwagon, #Nofx, #Propagandhi, etc. became the soundtrack, but I also had #NoMeansNo, #BlackFlag, #SNFU, #TheClash, #Subhumans, #CitizenFish, #ActiveMinds, #Crass, #OiPolloi, #MinorThreat #Ramones and the local bands on the #Birmingham and UK scene to broaden my tastes. Had a big pop-punk love affair after touring Italy with #TheManges and #StinkingPolecats which led to inevitable obsessions with all things #LookoutRecords (#MTX, #ScreechingWeasel, etc.) and all those influences still stick with me today (even if some of the lyrics and songs - and band members - occasionally need some disavowing!).

    More recent bands I love include #Idles, #TheWonderYears, #TheBobbyLees, #Pup, #MobinaGalore, #Pears, #WarOnWomen, #TheHomelessGospelChoir, #TheMuslims (band), #RottenMind, #BadCopBadCop, #TheVenemousPinks, #TheLindaLindas, #AntiFlag, #JeffRosenstock, etc…

    Who else should I be listening to?
