Ha ha ... well there's probably tons of em I wish I'd written, but something like 'I Know You Cried' by TX lot The Sherwoods, and it woulda been so cool to have penned the likes of 'Midnight To Six Man' by The Pretty Things, and the popsmackin' teen-punkers 'It's Cold Outside' by The Choir and 'What Am I Going To Do' by The Dovers come to mind too...and maybe The Moving Sidewalks' '99th Floor', 'Felt Like I Want To Cry' by the Outsiders, The King's Ransom's 'Shame', 'When I Get That Feeling by String and the Beans and maybe even The Kingsmen classic 'That's Cool, That's Trash' too, and 'So High I've Been, So Down I Must Fall by the mighty Q65...

well there was this garage punk band back in 03' that wrote the song "i hope you die your har red" their called act2 scene3 http://www.myspace.com/act2scene3

yep! put that one in as well as Lux's scream at the start of 'Love Me', check it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIm2y7UrJ8w

Psycho - The Sonics. Must be a contender for the best scream thread as well.

For me the best 1st era PunK LPs have gotta include The Damned, The Ramones 1st, 2nd and 3rd, Sex Pistols (Spunk boot tho, so much better soundin than their heavy-rockin' metal-guitarrin' slab o snot-wax Bollocks - but hey that's still great too...), The Saints, The Boys, The Adverts, The Clash 1st, Wire 1st, 2nd and 3rd, Buzzcocks and, although some folks don't really class them as punk PUNK if yer knowworrameen, I still say the Banshees and the Ants' debuts too are crucial...and let's not forget the likes of The Roxy WC2...

I THINK THE FIRST CLASH LP WAS GARAGE! For me the live lp from MAGAZINE, called PLAY, in Australia, nothing like what we should be talking about here, but often overlooked as it was so uncool, then and now.. Dark and weird.. But for music, its beauty unearthed!

hey ross, hoots mon there!!! so what wee east coast village near edinburgh would that be then??? just curious as i too lived down that way in the 70s, and still have connections in and around longniddry, cockenzie and the 'pans and north berwick...anyway loads of good sounds you mentioned there cheers from lenny - of the thanes and the wildebeests and a scribbler for the likes of shindig!, misty lane and lost in tyme - sometimes the great and mighty UgLy tHinGs too yeah!

hhm.. just want a few opinions on bands and such so feel free to post.

Lol, i teach English and Art in Valencia Spain, i play mix tapes all the time! The Spanish have a great garage background and love for the genre.. Before i arrived they had trip hop hip hop black hop er gangsta hop er drug hop white hop ahh hophop etc u know what i mean... Then they got some Gill Scott Heron, Poets and Prophets.. QUOTE ''Its not that new u know fellas'' etc.. Then the realized that this old stuff was pretty dangerous, in context of course.. So a wee jump to Garage, Psyche and some Mod, Freakbeat and selected Prog, Especially the new stuff, and post 90-s, Devil Dogs Gories Oblivians Teengenerate etc.. Also some stuff like early Nine Pound Hammer.. I don't waste my time on the non believers, if they haven't the intelligence to understand a muthafucka, then its their loss, they have Rhianna etc.. And to add, i saw them walking all in a line, not chatting, but texting each other... So what could 'the chob' do for these young fools? Let them do their own thing.. Its all relative lol.. I have my hifi installed in my Art class, so we can play at levels bad enough to make them sit up and hear the pounding bass and kickdrum,,,,, thats the secret!

Kopper said : "I pretty much stopped booking shows after I booked and organized a festival here in St. Louis called the Show-Me Blowout"

Tooooo bad Kopper, I would have loved to see some kind of "GARAGEPUNK.COM" festival someday somewhere !

But, once again, I'm just a stupid drunken dreamer...

"Testify" by the Isley Brothers - featuring a young Jimi Hendrix on guitar.

Yeeeesssss !!!
"Some a your sweet love" can't never fail !!!

maybe it's wrongheaded, but WAYNE COCHRAN always works for me.

I need to know.  What are some of your favorite dance floor fillers of the Soul variety?

thanks guys. that's awesome. ALL of those Crypt/Norton/unknown weirdo label albums are incredible. The ones I am seeking are not so much devoted to one particular sound of music(ala LAS VEGAS GRIND) but the ones that will mix trailers, novelty songs and savage rockers in one big mess of insanity.

soul preacher: psycho serenade is definitley one! never heard of "International Vicious Society" , thanks! (btw great show!)

kopper: all of those are monsters, total desert island shit. (btw-great show!!!)

btw anybody have a discograhy for Romulan?

I'd include the Sin Alley comps, too, by the way. The Desperate Rock'n'Roll comps are great, too. Oh, and It's Finking Time!

I've been hunting for the Big Itch Vol. 1 for years. If anyone has it (and can rip some high-quality MP3s of it), please let me know.

That vid is way cool - I sure never seen it!

these guys aren't exactly NEW but it's year 2000+....

The Treble Spankers

i recently found out about them and freakin love 'em, great instrumentals

I kind of thought this was all PR. I may be way off base, but this just seemed like another hilarious KK moment. I hope I'm right, but may be sadly mistaken.

Another good one... Jessi Cerutti's scream on the Honkeys' instro-smash, "No Brakes"!
