I’m going to paraphrase Johnny Ramone here-“they’re not short songs, they’re long songs played quickly”.
I saw the Ramones in the 80's ... at a festival , i think it was Reading... anyhoo they seemed to play 20 songs in 30 minutes... and it felt like 5 minutes
..... awesome set, awesome band
@@N0rnagest see the Ramones live always gave me that same feeling I got the first time I listened to them.
johnny was from queens the attitude is always let's go and get this done already
@@RoverIAC I saw them a lot. and always had that feeling too. The only band that has given me that feeling since is this one: ua-cam.com/video/oxCfPD9CrzE/v-deo.html
@@martinansell2105 thanks for the link.... cool!!!
when you realize the damned exists. priceless moment in anybody's life.
@@cubecubed yeah, new rose is one of the best punk songs ever written in my opinion. but they have a whole bunch of other masterpieces too.
The first gig I went to was The Damned with Anti Nowhere League in 1981. Scary to think that was 40 years ago. Saw The Damned again in 2011 and they were brilliant.
@@cubecubed The Damned and The Pistols have 1 thing in common
Both released 1 DEFINITIVE punk album only. The Damned post Brian James cannot imo be classed as punk. Machine Gun Etiquette was a mixed bag of music with the commercially crap poppy Smash it up and the introduction of the dreaded keyboard. Yep I can't get past the first Damned album cuz it's the closest thing to NMTB
I listened to the Rockfield Files and came to the conclusion that nobody will be in the mosh pit with that offering from the 1time punk band lol 🤘🤘🤘😜
Preach!!! 😊
First punk album fir me was the Damned
Damned
Buzzcocks
The Saints
Ramones
D.O.A
No Clash or Pistols lol
The Damned could play
Her getting so hyped for The Damned is making me so happy! They don't get enough praise imo.
They don’t from
General public but Lemmy always claimed they were the best punk band. I’d be more than happy with that endorsement 😎
Ak 79 album.oioioi from new Zealand
She didnt even play their best song (for me) New Rose.
The first true punk band ever. Not just in the UK
I couldn’t agree more! 🖤
It's so heartwarming to see a young person listening to these bands and loving it. Maybe there's hope for humanity after all!
O yes, she's the younger version of me. I was so excited waiting for the postman, in the 80s you could get these records only by mail order,especially living in Yugoslavia. Don't get me wrong,we had pretty good offer in our record shops, THE CLASH,STRANGLERS,BUZZCOCKS,SPECIALS,IAN DURY, even DEAD KENNEDYS, but NOT HARDCORE! But we had a good HC scene in old YU
Here's another punk band from the 70's that are often overlooked The Dead Boys.
All the upvotes in the history of the world! Saw them for the 1st time October 1st 1977 at cbgbs, bought Young Loud and Snotty the next day after about 2 hours sleep, saw them again October 8th 1977 and that's when my entire life changed. I lost count how many times I saw them after I hit 40 times. RIP Stiv 💔
more overlooked even, the australians proto-punk The Saints and Radio Birdman
@@JulioLeonFandinho yep, one of the first punk 45s I ever bought was The Saints (I'm) Stranded. Unfortunately I never got to see them live.
I did see the Damned once in a small club in New Jersey, it was either late '77 or early '78. They did one or two songs including a cover of The Sweet's Ballroom Blitz, smashed some gear and left the stage. It was kinda awesome 😎
And the Dictators
Good call man.
Some punk reaction i would suggests :
Ramones - rockaway beach
Sex pistols - god save the queen
Dead kennedys - holiday in cambodia
The clash - white riot
The misfits - last caress
The buzzcocks - ever fallen in love
The descendents - im the one
The undertones - teenage kicks
nice list!
Replace I’m the One with Hope and you’ve got a solid list there
Great List, but I think Last Caress has kinda sketchy subject matter for a youngster...I turned into a martian, perhaps?
Misfits - Hybrid Moments
Misfits - Bullet
Sex Pistols - Holidays In The Sun (God Save and Anarchy are classics but Holidays is the best first listen)
you've made this 64 year old who lived this music in real time a happy man
10 years behind you, but same
Yeah man props. I'm 54, grew up hc punk and had to fight all the time in the 80s. I call myself a punk rock dinosaur. Guys like you thou. You were there at the beginning...much respect.
"He's talking about being someone's dog, but he sounds cool! I like it!"
There are people in the world that just get it. You got it. Love every single reaction to it!
Iggy Pop is a unique talent. I love him so much.
JOEY RAMONE: Shoot 'em in the back, now!
KIRA: Oh, this is fun!
also funny how joey was making a reference to nazis while she said that.. obv joey wasnt a nazi since he’s jewish but it’s funny
I caught that too, the timing of that couldn't have been better... or worse lol
@@punkrockcentral1812 joey also said he was a nazi baby in today your love, tomorrow the world
@@punkrockcentral1812 dee dee wrote most of the songs but joey was still the one singing it
Black Flag "Rise Above"
Bad Brains "Sailin On"
Stooges "Search and Destroy"
Patti Smith "Gloria"
Clash "I fought the law"
buzzcocks - ever fallen in love
listen to both these comments lol
Patti Smith is a rock poet. No really, she's reciting her poetry with a rock background. Sounds stupid but it's so real it'll peel your socks off.
@@naytonestew7202 Patti Smith often gets thrown into the Punk mix, because of her look and attitude. But she really is a Beat Poet.
@@jasontaverner391 She's proto-punk.
Love that reaction to Captain Sensible's bass playing and Brian James's crazy guitar solo. That record was basically recorded in a broom cover. The Damned is the best!
be a doll be a baby doll
As I am older now I'm glad the Damned were not noticed as much as the others
I knew they were the best and could play just about anything
Love this, I reacted exactly the same when listening to punk for the first time 40 years ago. Still my music of choice and The Clash is the soundtrack to my life. Such a door opener to lots of other genres too. Reggae, rockabilly, soul etc etc. Enjoy!
Absolutely, can go down the Mikey Dread route from the Clash and try the likes of Misty in Roots etc or go to the psychobilly music of the Cramps, Meteors, King Kurt and others. The possibilities are endless.
The first punk band I heard in the 6th grade when my friend turned me on to the clash been punk sks and reggae since
my first punk reaction!! let's get it! who are your favourite punk bands?
& yes Misfits, Sex Pistols & Dead Kennedys will be in my next punk video! they all were close to being in this one :)
From the old days I'd say: Sex Pistols, The Exploited, TSOL :D.
@@SwordOfHeimdall Sex Pistols nearly made it into this video D:
Too many to list :). But I think everyone who has ever liked punk related music have had a phase of early Misfits. Other than that I think my favorite genre is "Oi!", essentially frustration and aggression loaded working class punk that became popular in the late 70s until today (Similar to Street Punk, D-beat etc.). Not everybody's cup of tea though ;)... if you want to check something out I recommend The Business -" National Insurance Blacklist"
@@Ca11mero I have never head of Oi! ... definitely the strangest name for a genre i've ever come across! lol
Billy Talent
Definitely need to check out:
“In My Eyes” by Minor Threat
“Waiting Room” by Fugazi
“Police Truck” by Dead Kennedys
“Do What You Want” by Bad Religion
“Boxcar” by Jawbreaker
“Hope” by Descendents
“Sound System ” by Operation Ivy
“Ever Fallen in Love” by Buzzcocks
“In the City” by the Jam
“New Noise” by Refused
That's a hell of a list.
More hard core than the earlier stuff. As said above, needs some getting used to. I love Fugazi though. Just adore them.
great choices man!
Don't leave Wendy out! PLAMATICS were the ultimate punk band! No one has ever come close to what they did back in the day (and I do mean the pre-Gene Simmons influenced era). R.I.P. Wendy. You will not be forgotten.
While I'm at it, some Bad Brains should be on the list (oh, we could all name stuff to add, I'm sure!)
If I were to edit that list a bit:
"Waiting Room" by Fugazi
"Myage" by Descendents
"Sound System" by Operation Ivy
"Ever Fallen in Love" by Buzzcocks
"That's Entertainment" by The Jam
"Now" by NoMeansNo
"Sunshine" by Screeching Weasel
"Young Crazed Peeling" by The Distillers
"New Noise" by Refused
THE CLASH one of the best bands of the world...ever!
This is true.
The only band that matters
If not the best
They will never be replaced.
'one of?'
This video just makes me so happy! I was literally tearing up from the shear happiness!
I grew up in the 70s years of punk, and was lucky enough to have seen many great punk bands, including the Ramones and the Damned. Seeing you enjoying them so much just made my day! Thank you!
I completly recomend you Dead Kennedys, specially "California über alles", "chemical warfare" and "Soup is good food".
yes they'll definitely be a big contender for the next video!
Holiday in Cambodia
@@kirawasareactor.... a word of advice: When listening to Dead Kennedys, have the lyrics on hand. Jello belts out much of his lyrics very, very fast.
Yes! The lyrics to Soup is Good Food are brutal but true.
DK for sure!!! "Plastic Surgery Disasters" I HIGHLY recommend!!!
The Dead Boys, Johnny Thunders & The Heartbreakers and The New York Dolls are obligatory hahaha.
Thunders was great, both his Dolls and Heartbreakers stuff is up there with the best of them.
@Stephen Greenhorn & Kira -- beware, Thunders & Co, while groovy, IS NOT PUNK. Proto-punk -- maybe.
@Stephen Greenhorn Johnny thunders heartbreakers rock'n'roll staple. Thunders was the shit. Sad that they are all gone now. Didn't think waldo would have left so soon. And sylvain Sad times
As a 62 year old Brit, thank you for playing " my music". Brought back so many memories of my teenage years in the 70s.
Can i suggest Siouxsie and the Banshees, Hong kong garden.
Thanks for playing these❤
It’s SOOO refreshing to see a young person REALLY enjoying classic punk for the first time. When I was a teenager in the late 90s, this genre was practically exclusively appreciated by male teenage virgins that assumed they would always be just that. It’s like a flashback mixed with a hope for the future. You have inspired me to want to hear music that I’ve never heard. Keep it up! Thanks for your efforts.
One of the Punk pioneers, The MC5:
Looking At You
Kick Out The Jams
I Can Only Give You Everything🤘🤘🤘
awesomeee thank you!
I get chills every time I listen to the speech in the beginning of Ramblin' Rose
@@freddyfleal Heard MC5 live twice, 1965 and 1966. Live, they were the most incredible SOUND makers I ever heard. No recording has even remotely got it.
@@annetta7793 wow! I've always heard that their true force was live. That's the reason their debut album was recorded live, no?
@Stephen Greenhorn YES, DEATH!!! They're so great and it's only sad they went unknown for so many years because they really should have been known all along as one of the originators of punk...that Detroit scene back then was really something...
“Love Song”, “I Just Can’t Be Happy Today”, and “Antipope” from The Damned’s 1979 album Machine Gun Etiquette are going to blow your mind…
IMO it's hands down their best album!! I've always loved "These Hands", "Plan 9 Channel 7" and the title track!
Totally agree that was first time I saw them age 14 in 1979 that tour with the Ruts as support
one of the GOAT albums. but Plan 9 Channel 7...when it comes on my randomized playlist that I drive around too or work out too, its immediatly an "oh fuck" moment
The Damned are one of the finest rock bands the UK ever produced....should be up there with Who and Kinks...
Their 1st 5 LP's are must owns...
@@murreygellmann7708 100% better than the Who the Kinks were great.
One classic, but often underrated punk band is "X" - the american band, not the australian (their are two).
They actually brought their first album after 30 years or so, called Alphabetland out last year - and the eponymous song Alphabetland is one of their best in my mind, next to their most famous one called "Los Angeles". "I'm Lost" is also pretty good. You should definetly check them out!
X managed to cover an amazing amount of ground while staying true to their punk roots.
Billy Zoom was an amazing guitar player.
I wouldn't call them underrated. I mean, they were one of the main features of the most popular documentaries of all time, The Decline of Western Civilization. But yeah, X is an amazing band!
You really need to listen to the Australian band X aspirations Album
I gotta say, I just loved watching you lit up when you heard The Damned for the first time. It was pretty much the reaction of a generation of kids back in mid seventies. The OG; WTF face. Made my day. Thank you for that. I wrote initially this big text full of suggestions for your next punk listen but I see you've already released a Part 2 so I'm gonna watch that and see what comments I can make then. Again, loved watching your face light up hearing these great recordings. Cheers.
I'm glad that the younger generations still embrace all types and eras of music. I was the same way and I still listen to new artists also.
Some suggestions from my side:
X-Ray Spex "Identity" or "Oh Bondage! Up yours!" There are only two posibilities, you love Polys voice or you hate it.
Sham 69 "Hersham Boys" If you like to party
Toy Dolls "I've got asthma" If you want to party on
Sex Pistols "Anarchy in the UK"
X-Ray Spex debut is a solid punk classic, and they we’re Lydon’s favourite punk band, he didn’t really like the others.
I love Poly styrene! :)
@@punkoid76 I always read the only Punk bands he liked were The Adverts & Buzzcocks.
Sham 69 Borstal Breakout is better than Hersham Boys.
@@kabardinka1 If the kids are united was their best song.
The Damned changed my life. Remember they are still together and rocking!
"Oh this is fun!" Yeah, Ramones always had a sense of humor and had some really fun lyrics. Their 4 first albums are all awesome
yeah i love leave home
@@leahflower9924 I prefer Rocket to Russia
The Misfits with Danzig on vocals is my favourite punk band with amazing horror lyrics
oh yes Misfits, would love to include them in a future video!
Same
@@kirawasareactor cool would look foward to seeing that like most of your reactions to music you haven't heard before
@@takeshikitanohidinginflowers totally, thank you for the support :)
@@kirawasareactor The "horror" genre of has a lot of sub-sections. The Cramps were one of the first, but that thread leads down the Psychobilly path to bands like Nekromantix, Horror Pops, Demented are Go, The Meteors, Reverend Horton Heat and so on.
Imo London Calling is probably moving into post punk compared to their first album ; )
Listen to the whole "Repo Man" soundtrack. You will not be disappointed.
Excellent soundtrack.. got the vinyl when it first came out. and the movie is pretty cool..
I love that soundtrack!
OMG, a reaction to "Pablo Picasso" by the Modern Lovers would be classic!!!" "The girls turn the color of avocado/when I drive down the street in my Eldorado..."
@@naytonestew7202 he was only five foot three girls could not resist his stare... Pablo Picasso was never called an ...😃
@@naytonestew7202 Burning Sensation covers Pablo Picasso on the Repo Man soundtrack.. also love The Plugz on that album..
Your reaction is so wholesome!
The Damned is definitely on my top list and I would definitely recommend "machine gun etiquette" and "melody lee"
Kira, all of these bands are worth a deeper dive.
If you want a longer punk/new wave song, Johnny Was by Stiff Little Fingers is over 8 minutes long, and worth every second of it.
I'm 53. She's just like myself back in the late 70s discovering punk. It totally saved my life. Watching this, I feel like there is still hope for mankind.
more punk songs
ramones: shes the one
sex pistols: holidays in the sun
buzzcocks: what do i get
green day: only of you
L7: shitlist
new york dolls: looking for a kiss
sublime: same in the end
misfits: hybrid moments
rancid: maxwell murder
You now can enjoy the song R.A.M.O.M.E.S by the great Motorhead and kill two birds with one tune. Luv 2 ya Kira.
Follow up video:
Dead Kennedys "Chemical Warfare" or "Stealing People's Mail"
The Misfits "Bullet" or "Last Caress" (very NSFW)
The Bouncing Souls "Kate is Great" and "Manthem"
How do you go from those bands to bouncing souls? Lol
As an old L.A. punk, I saw Black Flag a lot back in the day and you can not beat that energy/angst of Hardcore So Cal punk. Check out some of my favorite bands I loved seeing back then like: The Dickies, Circle Jerks and Dead Kennedys. Saw all these bands many times, always great.
Good suggestions The Dickies are one of the tightest bands I've ever seen. Awesome!
I have been a punk rock fan since 1978 - I highly recommend "X-Ray Spex , Oh Bondage Up Yours"!
For Proto- punk I recommend MC5 - Kick Out the Jams or Ramblin' Rose!
From the 70's, Patti Smith is one of the greatest! Because the Night, Gloria, Free Money
From 80's/90's you should listen to Misfits: Dig Up her Bones, Helena, Dy Dy My Darling
thank you thank you thank you! definitely Misfits, I'll look into the other two
because the night written by Bruce Springstein
@@bretthardin9239 indeed
@@kirawasareactor I dont recommend any 90s misfits haha 77 to 83 is some of the best music ever.they got a new singer in the 90s and it sux imo.
@@ironclaw79 I really like Michale Graves era as well as Danzig's :)
The Clash definitely had a huge influence on the whole post-punk 80s bands (who in turn influenced a lot of the 00s UK bands like Kaiser Chiefs, Kasabian, Arctic Monkeys etc). It'd be great if you could check out The Jam at some point too. They were fronted by guitarist/vocalist Paul Weller, who was a massive influence on the Gallagher brothers from Oasis, and even featured on the Oasis song Champagne Supernova (for a more punky song by them, check out In The City.....for one of their more well known songs, Town Called Malice). Great reaction though :)
Black Flag later brought in lead singer Henry Rollins, who's gone on to solo success in music and as sort of a spoken-word storyteller/stand up and author. Songs like Rise Above, Six Pack, TV Party, and My War, all classics.
Also, definitely Misfits. Any of their songs.
The Damned still tour and rock out hard to this day.
Lemmy played with the Dammed...as the Doomed..he considered them true punks
It warms my heart to see someone discover The Clash and love them as much as I do
Her reaction to black flag was amazing 😂😂😂
Cool! How fun to see someone experience great music for the first time. There is SO MUCH out there, so many genres, bands, eras and ALBUMS. I envy your journey. Enjoy.
You missed bad brains and the misfits D: definitely HUGE staples in punk
I'm sad I never see the Plasmatics mentioned. I know Wendy went metal solo, but some of the early Plasmatics is nuts. I hope they get mentioned a bit more.
I love all these bands, but after finally seeing the Damned live for the first time in the US last night, and they're still going strong after 40 years!- I'm GenX and grew up on all these bands, and in most cases I love what they were-a good memory. The Damned are the band that stood the test of time! They evolved while sticking to their roots and keep putting on engaging, energizing shows! And they are so underrated-really amazing as musicians and performers. Thanks for recognizing- that was the show of a lifetime- the crowd was going wild dancing and moshing-young people and people their parent's age alike.
The Damned were in the studio next to, The Sex Pistols, The Clash and them. They got their album out first and are still together today. Long live the Damned!
Joe Strummed (the Clash) has one of the most unique voices. His last album was in the early 2003 with his band "Joe Strummer and the Mesaleros". The album is titled "Coma Girl" which is also the best track off of the lp.
Check out his live performance of Johnny Appleseed on Letterman. Incredible.
I remember the first time I listened to the Ramones and I fell in love with the band instantly. You should listen to Misfits too
Yes! Punk is short in minutes with an abundance of energy!.... listen to the rest of that Damned Album, they are one of the best Punk ever!!!!!
Great reaction. Love that you love The Damned.
I couldn't love this more! Some of my favorite bands. You could also check out X-Ray Spex - Identity a classic English punk group with an amazing female singer. Love Poly Styrene so much! Great video as always.
Yes! X-ray Spex!
Definitely, probably the best punk band after the Pistols and the Ramones
The Modern Lovers are another band in the proto punk and proto new wave and alternative and everything else. After their first recordings they totally changed but the early stuff is essential.
I found myself forty years ago experiencing big surprises with punk music. Thank you.
That Damned album is amazing. 100%.
"Short and Sweet" is punk in a nutshell.
Black Flag "Wasted"and their take on "Louie Louie" are both must hear tracks.
if she was amazed by how short the songs she listened to...wasted will blow her mind for how short it is
The Damned actually also had a huge influence on the gothic rock movement since the lead singer Dave Vanian often impersonated a vampire on stage in their early days and some of their songs were also proto-goth. I really love them and recommend "I Just Can't Be Happy Today" and "Smash It Up" (it's a two-part song and you need to do both parts), both from their second album "Machine Gun Etiquette".
And considering The Clash: you're right, they are probably one of the most influential bands of all-time and definitely the most influential punk band especially on alternative rock bands all through the 80s up to now. Their frontman Joe Strummer is a true icon, up there with John Lennon or Bob Marley. He was a very wise and intelligent guy and there are quotes of him all over modern pop culture. You really should do an album reaction on the whole "London Calling" album. It is truly one of the true masterpieces in music and one of the best albums of all time. Like rock 'n' roll legend Jerry Lee Lewis used to say: all killer, no filler ! I'm sure you will love it.
And post-punk should be logical to be your next genre to try out after discovering punk. There is so much to learn there as well, especially when I see that you're into bands like Interpol. Bands like Joy Division, Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Cure (in their early days), The Smiths and many others are the founding fathers (and mothers) for many sounds today and bands like Interpol, The Killers, The Strokes, Arctic Monkeys, Editors, TV on the Radio, Arcade Fire and so many more are hugely influenced by the post-punk movement (which derived from punk and was also the forerunner of what later became gothic rock).
Dave Vanian hasn't stopped impersonating a vampire!
London Calling (entire album) is an absolute masterpiece...their first album was much rawer but very influential to budding garage bands.
when the ramones and clash first albums came out they turned the music industry on its head. suddenly we could do anything...
The Clash is one of the great bands, period, regardless of genre.
Your comment about wishing The Damned song was a bit louder, I remembered on the record label it actually says, "made to be played loud at low volume." 😂👍
Also, another great English punk band from that era that hardly gets mentioned is 999. "Homicide" is probably their most well known song.
999! Had that cassette in high school!
This is amazing. I love seeing someone dig for the first time something I’ve loved my whole life
You rule! Hope you keep exploring, I'm excited for you, there is so much out there;)
The Damned is so good
Some absolute classics!
The Adicts - “I am yours”
Subhumans - “Subvert City”
Fugazi - “Waiting room”
Buzzcocks - “Ever fallen in love”
Sex Pistols - “ God save the Queen”
Descendents - “Myage”
Dead Kennedys - “Kill the Poor”
Misfits - “Last Caress”
Agent Orange - “Bloodstains”
MC5 - “Kick out the Jams”
Fear - “I don’t care about you”
If you’re feeling brave, you can also check out GG Allin, but this serves as a warning.
GG has some sick songs but dam I have no idea what the fuck was wrong with that man
@@space_skeloton1862 Someone has to be the craziest lunatic in the business. GG probably figured “Why not me?”. He went to the edge and boldly took the crown.
@@geoffreylaurentz6145 that makes sense
"7-11" and "today your love, tomorrow the world"... What a bangers from Ramones
It's amazing how Keith Morris' voice sounds even better today, 40 years after! I saw him with OFF! a couple of years ago, he is a certified punk legend.
If you loved that Stooges song, you GOTTA react to their second album "Fun House."
Yeah, that's a banger! Hope she's ready for it.
Wot no X-Ray Spex?
"Some people think little girls should be seen and not heard. But I think... Oh Bondage Up Yours!"
Was fun watching you enjoying these songs from my youth.
Punk Rules!
OMG THE DAMNED!! YESS!! I love them so much and i can't believe how underrated they are! I got so excited when i saw the title of your video, and i was hoping that "Neat Neat Neat" was your first introduction to them, i was actually going crazy along with you while you were listening
I can so relate to your excitement hearing London calling for the first time! I kind of re-discovered The Damned a few months ago actually, their third album Machine gun etiquette is a masterpiece fusion of punk and pop bliss.
I can't believe you didn't pick the sex pistols! They've one of the best album titles of all time: Never mind the bollocks, here's the sex pistols
yes they were SO close to getting picked. just missed out. definitely will be in the next video
@@kirawasareactor to be fair, i am into punk a lot (i mean i actually sing and play guitar in a punk band), and i am not really into the sex pistols. i appreciate them for who they are, they are one of the key cornerstones of the punk movement, and you just have to appreciate them for the spirit. i am not crazy about the music though. you definitely need to listen to them though. as well as misfits and dead kennedys from the big names i believe. also, don't miss out on the zero boys. they are a hidden gem I believe. based on this video you will love "Civilization Dying" by them.
@@tolvajakos I'm 100% with you regarding the Sex Pistols. Their importance is more 'ideological' and conceptual than musical.
Fuck the Sex Pistols lol, I’ll listen to em once in awhile but they’re just self absorbed (atleast vicious and Lydon) fashion punk losers
@@falafel1980 Anti-sex pistols people are wronggg -- Sex Pistols play great songs, a musical joy unlike any other.
Kudos to you for checking out the underground punk movement of the 70s. It's such great music! I do have a public punk playlist on my channel if you're curious for more. I love The Damned and some of my faves of theirs is: "Wait for the Blackout" "Thanks for the Night" and "Disco Man." I could probably go on but you'd just get a list of all their songs. Lol! Great thoughtful reactions!
Kira - "The vocal delivery of London Calling was probably my favourite across the five songs I have listened to"
So great to see a young person appreciate the late, great Joe Strummer. And Kira, live the Clash were AMAZING!!!
Got to do Sex Pistols, they “were” punk. Never mind The Bollocks whole album
Also the Stranglers ,Rattus Norvegicus full album, if you like bass Burnel is one of the best
Couldn't agree more!!
Exactly
London Calling -the whole album is a must listen. Repeat 1000 times. One of the best rock albums ever.
I'm happy to see a young rebellious spirit. She's so into this stuff.
This is such an awesome video. I got into punk in high school when I was 16, I'm 30 now and that music just flows through my veins. So glad to see a young person enjoying the music that made me who I am.
Once again freaking adorable! So much fun watching you hearing this stuff for the first time. So much good punk. Looking forward to your punk journey. I suggest The Buzzcocks - Ever fallen in love.
thank you! I have already listened to Ever Fallen in Love. it is one of my favourite songs ever, you have great taste :)
@@kirawasareactor Thankyou! There is just so many flavors of punk to choose from. While not punk but The Specials were an incredible UK Ska band from the late 70s early 80s that kinda goes hand in hand with punk. One of my most favorite punk bands is a hybrid of punk and ska called Operation Ivy.
My favorite 'Cocks song is Paradise on Different Kind of Tension. That Pete Shelley is a real romantic. The odd band out in that respect.
@@kirawasareactor That's punk for you! Let's have a contest Which is the best? with Rap and Punk being the two contestants
@@amusingtheamazing The Specials are the best, though. And Madness. Remember "One Step Beyond'?
Try “new rose” by Damned. Strawberries is a great album ! Kaptain sensible gonna love you dig his leads
nice to see a young person experiencing what i did when this stuff came out
Okay this is officially my favourite youtube video, it really makes me happy when people are introduced to punk rock and enjoy it!
"I heard of the Damned the least"
Story of the Damned in a nutshell. They actually released the first punk single in the UK, and the first to tour the States, but are kinda under looked. If you liked the Damned, check out some early stuff from TSOL, anything off of the album Dance With Me.
The album, "Double Nickels on The Dime" by The Minutemen, is essential punk listening! They were very unique and stood out in the scene, because of their fusion of hardcore punk, blues, and jazz. Highly recommend them! great reaction btw!
Great video...love seeing people appreciate music for what it is. 👍
Don’t normally watch these kind of videos but it was absolutely joyous seeing you hear punk for the first time. Love that you loved the Damned so much. You nailed one of the most important aspects of punk, FUN!
The fact that you liked The Damned is awesome. Check out Love Song from them, My personal favorite of theirs.
Misfits "Where Eagles Dare"
The Clash singer on London Calling was Joe Strummer R.I.P. One of the greatest frontmen we ever had in the UK. Be sure to check out their albums, along with the other bands mentioned by other people here.
Fun watching this kid dig some punk classics. Keep it up.
Some awesome and totally accessible punk bands would be Discharge, Doom, Extreme Noise Terror, Anti-Cimex
That's even farther out - D Beat & Crust
real pity a band with name like Shitlickers would be impossible to sneak in there too.
You should react to The Dickies group from the 70s and they are still touring today 2 albums to listen to is. The Incredible shrinking Dickies and Dawn of the Dickies there first music
Is it just me or is Kira the cutest thing about UA-cam? Ugh, that accent is delightful.
I had the biggest goddamn smile on my face this while video. Welcome to our world ;)
