It's Memorial Day weekend! What are we memorializing? We forget. So F it...in Vegas. |
Punk rock's dead, but... No, come on, punk's not dead! It's vital and this four-day festival aims to show some relevant bands and old favorites with a few greats that never got the exposure they deserve. Them's the breaks. This was always about going against the stream, against commercial success, against the rock 'n' ethos of getting wasted, building an ego and a solo spotlight, then crashing and burning. Punk's about getting straight to the crashing and burning. Seek and destroy. F authority, anarchy, freedom, individuality, self-responsibility, stand up for something instead of falling for anything. Fight the power. Undermine the system. Or at least play something simple and fast with some animation and real emotion.
Bad Religion: "We're Only Gonna Die"
Early man walked away
As modern man took control
Their minds weren't all the same
To conquer was his big goal
So he built his great empire
And slaughtered his own kind
Then he died a confused man
Killed himself with his own mind
We're only gonna die
from our own arrogance
We're only gonna die
from our own arrogance
We're only gonna die
from our own arrogance
Best punk rock albums of all time according to Bad Religion
