Forum
to Kevin and Mr. Punk Rock: you're both idiots, stop talking about all that bullshit, start getting drunk and stoned 'cause that's what punk is about, not about your stupid bullshit

yes i know its people...its called a typo. stan, i think you've got it wrong. if you actually listen to the lyrics of bands besides the fuckin casualties you'd realize they aren't just screaming about nothing. punk is about the beliefs. its people who don't realize that are destroying the scene. that's all. peace

Some Of You People Are Pathetic. I Really Agree With That One Person Moises I Think That Was His Name.True Words Of A Wise Person.Now I Would Call That Person A Real Punk. You People Fight Becuase You Think That A Person Is Not "Punk" Enough.You People Fight At Shows Becuase That Person Looked At Me Wrong.What Happened To "Punx Will Unite Till They Die" Crap.You Say She Or He Is Trying To Be So Punk, When The Fact Is Your Doing The Same Thing. When The Fact Is That Your Not Even Close To Being A Slight Bit Of Punk Youself.Getting Stoned, Drunk, Breaking Rules, Dressing Like Punk To Be More Punk Is Just Stupid. You Say Fuck Hot Topic Fashion Trend, I Bet You Some Of You People Shop In Hot Topic Everyday To Get Your Shirts And Bondage Pants. And Dont Say Shit Becuase Right Now That Your Reading This Your Saying " No, I Don't Shop At Hot Topic" Dont Even Lie To Yourself. (Remember I Said Some Of You).Becuase Some Of You Do. I Dont Have To Drees A Certain Way To Be Punk. I Dress The Way I Want To, Talk The Way I Want To, Believe The Things That I Want To, Listen To The Music That I Want To. Dont Get Me Wrong But I Love Punk Rock. I've Been Reading All Of These Messages, And Less Than Half Of The People Really Know What Punk Is About.(Or So I Think They Do)Aus - Rotten Is A Very Good Band. Now Makes Me Just Want To Learn More About How Really Fucked Up And Greedy Our Goverment Is.Maybe Some Of You Should To. You Shouldn't Even Be Doing Any Anarchist Shit. Anarchy Means - Absence Of Any Govermental Authority.What Do Do You Think Thats Means???How Do You Think The World Would Be Without Any Goverment????? FUCKED UP NO SHIT!!! Worse Than It Is Now. Think About That.
P.S.Punk Is Not How You Look. Fuckers. Be Smart. Punk's Not Dead

hey stacy i am totally with you on the whole punk isn't about the dress or getting drunk or who is "more punk". Hot topic sucks..its actually owned by some company liek abercrombie but i don't remember exactly which one..its for ravers and goths .its stupid that someone would buy bondage pants for liek 70 bucks.make them you fucking self..but about the whole anarchy thing..im an anarchist,,and first of all there is a distinction between chaos and anarchy..i think bands singing about chaos and people who believe in it really don't know what they are talking about..but anarchy isn't simply no laws its no need for laws..its not that you just abolish all organization suddenly. its something that will take generations..hopefully people will slowly start joiining in the cause .there can still be some structure..communties..with no power ...everyoe has to be responsible and do their part..yes government makes some aspects of life easier by dealign ith soem problems..but its a sacrifice that needs to be made for true freedom..there is nothing the state provides that the community can't provide.it won't be achieved through force but through educationi and understading and some persuasion..teaching people to respect one antoehr and not try to control others..and yes it is pretty ideal..but its worth believing in..first of all governments are corrupt and greedy..secondly power can never giv true equality or freedom. i really want freedom for myself and of course for others..especially those who ar emore victimized than me. so before you jump on anarchists do some research ..here what true anarcho bands and peopel have to say..and read philosophy of punk,.,.it has some good insight about anarchy...so peace everyone and go read a book

Who cares about where you shop at how you dress??? All the people in this responce thing are like your not punk this your not punk. Who gives a shit shopping wearing the clothes they sell doesn't change the person you are. All labels are people judging you by the way you dress, and if you do that you're no better than a nazi judging someone before you know them. Changing the shirt on my back to an old navy shirt other than a band i like wouldn't change the person i am. Just listen to what you want to listen. Don't just do it becuase its the style or w/e. Do want you want you want in life not what others want you to do. Just have fun i think agt said it best "Fuck the Future Live For Now"

I agree..what you wear doesn't matter. It only sucks when you are supporting companies like Gap, abercrombie, nike, old navy..and many many other companies because they have HORRIBLE sweatshops. and by the way, Hot Topic is owned by Gap, Inc. the clothes you buy from it were probably made by kids or something working 12 hours a day. so im done ranting now. just think about.

yes it does fit me. but i don't that's a bad thing. what's the point of believing in a way of life that aims to make a difference if your not going to fucking say anything. silence gets people no where. peace

i dont get it when people are so against the system and them come on the internet and preach about anarchy instead of bitching on the internet make a difference go out beat up a cop or whatever the bullshit anarchy is.......you cant have chaos without order dumbasses ohhH yeah and aus rotten isnt that great
>>By Finnigan (Monday, 30 Jun 2003 09:00)
Ive seen people talking about how religion is good and punx hate religion and god, and then other people saying that religion sucks and god doesnt exist or whatever. What people have to understand is who gives a shit if people need a crutch in their life. It is better then them turning to other things for answers like drug addictions, suicide or all that shit. Also, a person can be spiritual and not religious (which i sometimes think i am). A person can believe in god, and it doesnt have to be the stereotypical imige of a dude with a beard creating stuff. God could just be a notion of equality or serenity or something here on earth. I personally hate the church and dont support it in any way, i mean come on, its a waste of fucking time and they take your fucking money. Some catholics, too, spend their whole life preparng for the afterlife which is a very contraversal and unbelievably STUPID thing to spend your life doing. That is why someone should be spiritual and not religious and support the church.
Anyways, Aus Rotton IS one of the best bands ever.
DONT FALL UNDER THE CYCLE: pay to worship; worship to survive; survive to pay

first of all..what's with people spelling it punx?...no need for that..anyways. I think punks have the right to hate religion.Though i do agree that it is better than turning to worse things like drugs etc. but i think aus-rotten has the right idea that saying that it is bullshit and brainwashes people with false lies and hopes. it seems that so many people use it because of fear of death. gives them security to know that there is something after death, but then people work for their afterlife, people should work to improve things on earth, to work for a better future for the humyn and animal populations and educate people to carry on and hopefully make a change. we need to unite not conform, to hopefully make a difference in this fucked up world. "god" was created by the people, and it's sad to see that people think that by going to church and praying it will do good for them. plus the catholic church is quite corrupt but i i won't get into that. i think that organized religion is messed up conformity. though i think that if people are spiritual it is ok, although i don't believe it myself. that should be the crutch people use rather that becoming reborn again christian or something like that.
anways...email me if you agree, disagree, want to talk politics ...Aroseinthemist@hotmail.com peace*unity*equality*freedom
>>By Gabby (Sunday, 6 Jul 2003 06:07)
Micah and Gabby are right, everyone else is just acting like a fucking seventh grade lunch table, fighting about style and other shit. its sad and pathetic. I guess punk really is dead.
>>By Hootie McBoob (Sunday, 6 Jul 2003 16:09)
i don't think it is dead. there are still many people who care about it and really believe in the ideals, sometimes its hard to find them though. its just sad to see all those who don't and care and are in it to be "cool" but they couldn't tell you what capitalism is and don't really care about the humyn or animal populations. It seems like a majority would fit that description. *freedom*equality*peace* UNITE

You've all totally conformed to an image and have no fucking idea what you're talking about you just wonna look good to people reading this total bullshit. I was just looking for a webpage about Aus Rotten cause I enjoy listening to them and I wanted to find some lyrics about what they were talking about to see if they were full of shit or not. Then I came across this and I really hate myself for reading all of these opinions that aren't really opinions just desperate atempts to fit a stereotypical image. It really is fucking sad but it's even more sad that I'm actually taking time out of my day to respond to this. It seems I've contradicted myself but I'm doing this so any othere person that has views about this that agree with mine doesn't have to lower themselves to post on this total bullshit to express them. This is a really trendy saying but seriously consider it. Go out be yourself choose what YOU care about or what YOU wonna be involved in. I don't mean to tell you how to live your life cause I know I have no fucking business doing so it just is some advice. And I don't care what anyone says about this post cause I'm seriously never going to check this bullshit ever again so your words are wasted.
>>By Llamainheat (Friday, 1 Aug 2003 22:54)
I fucking agree with Llamainheat he knows what he is talking about and if you didn't read what he has to say then you need to take the time out of your "busy" lives to so that we don't have a bunch of conforming bastards out there that have jumped on the band wagon just because they have come across the "punk" scene.
>>By a-f Street Punk (Saturday, 16 Aug 2003 05:05)
For Gabby who writes: "first of all..what's with people spelling it punx?...no need for that.." What's your deal? What kind of Punk would ever tell others they have to conform like that? And then you turn around and spell the word human with a Y? Get over yourself, lame.
Up the Punx!
>>By sufi (Friday, 19 Sep 2003 18:42)
I really like Aus-Rotten. They we're the band that opened my eyes to many political complications going around. They gave me their opinion and from there I read up about the subject and formed my own opinion. I'd like to thank Gabby, the guy Who read the whole thing, moisès and Secessionist for being the few who I could bare listening to. You fellas may not be the ones talking the most, but atleast you have something to say. Stand Strong.
Once again, Aus Rotten are like the Kakistocracy in my life, both great bands.

One more thing. Sufi, I believe Gabby spells Humyn with a Y for the same reason people spell Womyn with a Y. I may be wrong but from what I read of Gabby, he seems like a bright person and probably does it for that reason.
Sufi's message awkwardly shows how ignorance breeds hate and fear (or atlest a watered down version of it, I'll call it a form of discomfort, maybe even prejudice).

Nono, I'll call it Hostility. Seems more appropriate as I read it over. Sorry for making you read more.

Punk is a COMMODITY, Stop taking it all so seriously, You end up making yourself look a lot more Stupid then you probably are. In the true words of A\\Political "Punk IS a fucking Ghetto."
>>By take action not money (Saturday, 15 Nov 2003 18:53)
Aus Rotten is alot better then Anti-Flag. Anti-Flag has a pretty good message but they sound like good charollete or however the fuck you spell it.

Anyone got Modern Day Witchhunt tabs?
>>By Austin (Friday, 12 Dec 2003 02:22)
thanks for agreeing Mavalon. that is why i spell humyn with a Y.. i'm not a guy though.. and punk is a commodity to many people..but in the real underground scene it still has meaning..
you can't even begin to compare aus-rotten to anti-flag.. yeah anti-flag may have some good lyrics..but since they've signed major record deals they're part of the capitalist system that so many punks are against..and rightfully so.. not realy punk in any way
anyone who agrees or whatever IM: Gabfish123
>>By Gabby (Friday, 2 Jan 2004 02:34)
I randomly came across this forum and wow.... First off, you guys are joking right? Talking about capitalism, Gap, Abercombie, ect... The irony has to be apparent. First off, who's your internet service provider? AOL, Time Warner, Earthlink, ect... Could it be that you guys are supporting huge multinational corporation by using the internet? Fuck, even that fact you have a computer isn't too punk is it? Shit listen to yourselves. Instead of spending so much time reading lyrics, maybe you guys should become up to date on real life events. (Example: I read about how someone said that Hot Topic was owned by Gap and how Gap was evil because they used sweatshops. It is true that Gap was ACCUSED of running sweatshops by the National Labor Commission. But what you failed to mention was the fact that the a later investigation found the first reports to be marginally overexaggerated. Despite that, the Gap still updated every factory to be NLC complaint. They received very positive recognition for it). I also heard something about Anti-Flags lyrics being good. Since this is an Aus Rotten forum, it's ironic you say that seeing as Aus Rotten hates Anti-Flag because of their lyrics. You guys need to realize their most political punk lyrics are a giant facade. Of course you guys can prove me wrong about how punk you are by leaving your homes, computers, ect.. and moving to a commune. It's what the band Crass did. But wait, even the girl from Crass left and joined Chumbawumba, who had that sell out hit in 1998. I used to believe all the punk rock B.S., but then I learned to think for myself. There are a lot of things that I think are wrong in our country, but instead of just complaining I'm doing something about it. I graduate from Law School next year and I'll be working for the Foreign Service on policy review.

Punk is the way you think. All this fasion shit, is nothing but a trend. Even crass once said " kill the mac", at the end punk as a whole cant be lived in a country like this one, punk is a dream, every thing is too fucked to be fucked with. And before saying whats punk and whats not, try to know what punk is. Punk is dead - now refuse to be led
