Industrial in general is chock full of acts where reading their biography is more fun than listening to their music.

Honestly The Sex Pistols in general were hacks that just made a stupid caricature of the punk movement

Yes they're garbage.
That said, by the shows prior to his death like winters and he was noticeably better
But still bad

You forgot about Nancy

G.I.S.M.
They were a pretty alright band, but everyone knows them as the band with the guy who took out chainsaws and flamethrowers on the audience

gg allin 100%

Fuck you and fuck you. There wasn't a punk movement until The Pistols came along. At least not one worth speaking of. Never Mind the Bollocks changed music probably more than any other album in the history of modern music.

Except their was a punk movement before the Pistols? The Sex Pistols were great sure but it's not like they invented punk rock. If anything they moreso embodied it and gave it more notoriety. There was a sizable punk scene in New York well before Never Mind the Bollocks dropped.

euronymous deserved what that lamp did to him

...

This Jap never learn to play guitar and fooled lots of people he was doing something important with his awful playing. Then he sucked cocks back stage for fun. Probably one the only men Id shoot dead before Johnny Cash of Austin Tx

...

When I got into JD I didn't even know he had an heroed and I still enjoyed it plenty

Fuck right off. GG was the fucking man. Had a great punk voice early on, and by the it was raspy and deep and just perfect for the hardcore stuff he was putting out.

>There wasn't a punk movement until The Pistols came along.

kek. Pink Flag came out two months after Never Mind the Bollocks and Wire were already considered post-punk

Particularly the guy in blue.

I love this guy, but this guy.

Wire didn't become post-punk until Chairs Missing, and even that's a retroactive tag. No one knew what post-punk was in 1977, don't kid yourself.

OP just read the wire's wiki page and thinks he knows what he's talking about. Pink Flag is 100% punk

"no"

Yes

But Flea is super good

70s and 80s industrial is fucking goat, though.

Roger is half the blame for this.

...

you can't deny that he's remembered for his image though
