Best Sick Of It All songs.

Someone (August 11, 2007)

you momma licks my wank.

Someone (August 11, 2007)

i think my favorite would have to be "tough dudes with crew cuts" or either "listen to me play this power chord really fast"

FranklinStein (August 11, 2007)

nice......

leecorsoisapenis (August 11, 2007)

winner!

Someone (August 11, 2007)

fuck these are big venues. I love the shins but man that's a huge place to see an indie band. garden state must have been a good move for these guys.

nocigar (August 11, 2007)

Angels on the sideline,
Puzzled and amused.
Why did Father give these humans free will?
Now they're all confused.

Don't these talking monkeys know that
Eden has enough to go around?
Plenty in this holy garden, silly monkeys,
Where there's one you're bound to divide it.
Right in two.

Angels on the sideline,
Baffled and confused.
Father blessed them all with reason.
And this is what they choose.
And this is what they choose...

Monkey killing monkey killing monkey
Over pieces of the ground.
Silly monkeys give them thumbs,
They forge a blade,
And where there's one
they're bound to divide it,
Right in two.
Right in two.

Monkey killing monkey killing monkey.
Over pieces of the ground.
Silly

mCLz (August 11, 2007)

scared of chaka = good
the shins = shit

Someone (August 11, 2007)

haha, no. wrong. the shins are amazing.

but thanks anyways, 'rancidmark'.

mCLz (August 11, 2007)

its marc not mark

Someone (August 11, 2007)

You gotta hear this song, man, it'll change your life.

elephantdwarf (August 11, 2007)

here's why your opinion doesn't matter:

311, Ataris, Blue Meanies, Buck-O-Nine, CASUALTIES, Catch 22, Dancehall Crashers, Fenix TX, Glassjaw, Goldfinger, H20, Horrorpops, Inspecter 7, Lars Frederiksen and the Bastards, Less Than Jake, Living ENd, Mad Caddies, Mephiskapheles, MEST, MXPX, Nekromantix, NOFX, OFFSPRING, PENNYWISE, Planet Smashers, Rancid, Reel Big Fish, Rufio, Spring Heeled Jack, SUBLIME, Thrice, ZEBRAHEAD.

and that's just the bands i've had the massive misfortune of having to hear at least once in my life. i put the really bad ones in all caps. except i couldn't put 311 in all caps, but i would if i could.

maverick (scott) (August 11, 2007)

Let's leave the Blue Meanies out of this.

-Scott

Someone (August 13, 2007)

wow, I like the shins but you're just a fuckin loser mate

elephantdwarf (August 13, 2007)

okay, mate.

Someone (August 13, 2007)

Yeah. It's nice that you're able to increase your own credibility by way of a massive Black Sabbath playlist on your Last.fm. Good job, fuckwit.

elephantdwarf (August 13, 2007)

ummm... there is absolutely nothing wrong with Black Sabbath at all. if you think there is you are an idiot, sorry.

elephantdwarf (August 13, 2007)

and massive black sabbath playlist? you're just making stuff up. they aren't even in my top 50 as far as listens overall go, i was figuring out some of the geezer's little bass fills earlier when i was bored. but i still stand by black sabbath being one of the better bands on earth.

branden (August 11, 2007)

i think with yanul its like a serve in heaven or rule in hell situation. i guess we know which one he picked!

I happen to like it, but how can the ol' Pitchfork top themselves?

Someone (August 11, 2007)

YO! Mitch Clem is gold. That comic was hilarious. So much better than the actual news post.

Infrarecon (August 11, 2007)

Thats kind of odd routing, going from the Norva-1500 people to Merriweather Post Pavillion around 16,000 people. Mabye there's some fest I don't know about. Still I guess its not unheard of.

maverick (scott) (August 12, 2007)

I believe they're playing the Download Festival.

-Scott

freesandwich (August 12, 2007)

With snoop dizzle

Infrarecon (August 12, 2007)

Ahh, I suspected a festival I just couldn't remember any being announced in the area. Makes sense now.

Someone (August 12, 2007)

ok bare with me. Have you at least thought..."fuck i could start losing weight."..?

Someone (August 11, 2007)

to the tune of "Ohio is for Lovers"

So fuck my ass

Someone (August 11, 2007)

Someone (August 12, 2007)

TheRepoMan (August 12, 2007)

TLA rocks Sonic Youth in the ass anyday... INYAFACE

Someone (August 12, 2007)

to be fair, at least the larry arms are ripping off a really good band, and i can't imagine you'd fall asleep at a tla show..

Windfall (August 12, 2007)

Dude, when I first heard Abracadaver I thought it was Jawbreaker.

Someone (August 11, 2007)

LAWL @ the Atreyu ad on this site.... that 'A' logo looks too much like the ALF front's A logo.... srsly fuck that band their papa roach cock rock. at least they released wearing make up and dressing like davey havok is silly.

Someone (August 12, 2007)

kill_FFTL (August 12, 2007)

new mustard plug leaked

Someone (August 12, 2007)

does anyone else ever feel like they're missing out on all the music that is out there? it feels so impossible to keep up and give proper attention to everything out there (mainly speaking of punk/hardcore) after over 10 years of being into punk i *just* gave stiff little fingers and naked raygun a good listen to. help.

Someone (August 12, 2007)
