Chaotic DischordChaotic Dischord: Fuck Religion, Fuck Politics, Fuck The Lot Of You!Fuck Religion, Fuck Politics, Fuck The Lot Of You! (2003)Dead Ringer Reviewer Rating: 2.5 Contributed by: FortyMinutesWestFortyMinutesWest (others by this writer | submit your own) Hmm, I don't get it. I've never been into street punk that much, so maybe that's why. Chaotic Dischord played fast, sloppy, and angry. As showcased by this albums title, this band has a fuck this, fuck that attitude. In general they come off sounding a bit sarcastic and cynical. I don't reall. Hmm, I don't get it. I've never been into street punk that much, so maybe that's why. Chaotic Dischord played fast, sloppy, and angry. As showcased by this albums title, this band has a fuck this, fuck that attitude. In general they come off sounding a bit sarcastic and cynical. I don't really know what to make of this. I can listen to a lot of genres of music, sometimes right in a row and not mind the change, but I can't get into this band. Maybe it's the vocals. In fact, I'd definitely say it's the vocals that bother me above all else. They're purposely sloppy, and that doesn't work for me.. However, this band does seem to be having a good time doing what they're doing, so I can't really fault them here. . I don't know much about this band aside from that they feature members of Vice Squad, and the press release did very little to alleviate this problem. The music isn't bad, it's nothing really out of the ordinary for this genre, but it's tolerable. The band does live up to their name though, this album is chaotic and it is discordant. It's not easy to take this band seriously, and I have a feeling that they'd like it that way I don't really know what else to say here. If you're a fan of this band I'm sure you've already picked up this re-issue, otherwise you're probably like me and you're totally oblivious to what exactly is going on here. If street punk with a sense of humor sounds appealing, then you might want to check this out. Please login or register to post comments.What are the benefits of having a Punknews.org account?
I don't really think Discharge had a lot to do with this musically, except maybe the metal influence. Discharge was really about taking Crass-type politics and dumbing them down for the average person who listened to crap like Vice Squad and GBH. Oh, and Discharge totally rocked. "Free speech, free speech, for the dumb, for the dumb!" Chaotic dischord was the greatest band of all time sure it was a joke band but a damn good one & no one can duplicate their brilliant belnd of racket! Yeah, I can't believe some shit band like Black Flag got a higher rating than CD... you dont know shit, this is the holy grail of punk from the 80's This is one of the greatest punk albums of this genre, right up there with "City Baby..." and "Hear Nothing, See Nothing...". Hey, I only review what I'm sent. "Hmm, I don’t get it. I’ve never been into street punk that much, so maybe that’s why." totally wasnt asking you to defend your reason for liking this. The band Chaotic Dischord was formed as a joke. Literally. Some members of and roadies for Vice Squad. It was a lampoon of how ridiculous punk had become by '83. The "band" got more serious much later (and of course, more formulaic/pointless.) Brush up on your Riot City Records history, this knowledge isn't exactly tough to come by. The title makes me want to hear it then laugh at it "bsd - are lots of bands really influenced by these guys? could you name some." Just a thought. Isn't it kind of weird that they called the album "Fuck Religion, Fuck Politics...". By saying "fuck religion" they are taking a political stance. no, shivers of rage. i may think bsd is pretty silly sometimes, but at least he doesnt like silvertein. or anything that sounds remotely like silvertein. good christ, i hate that band. their name sends shivers down my spine. "figures BSD would like this bullshit TheMarc- BSD: You rule. I appreciate the beauty of putting this review next to the Five Iron Frenzy review. Good stuff, Scott!! you know i don't know what to think about this because i dont want to listen to it figures BSD would like this bullshit Well, you have to look at the time frame... This album came out before all of the street punk/hardcore scenesters got redundant. I love it, Chaotic Dischord are actually good at playing their intrsuments, but it might be covered up with the funny lyrics... There were actually quite a few English 80's bands with no political agendas other than to piss everyone they could off, like Splodge and Special Duties... You need to remember that this came out before there were a million Vice Squad/Chaotic Dischord clones, like there are now... This is one of the greatest punk albums of this genre, right up there with "City Baby..." and "Hear Nothing, See Nothing...". |

Chaotic Dischord is pretty damn funny. Especially the Chainsaw Disaster.
