L'8 Settembre 1988 quei mattacchioni dei Bad Religion pubblicavano Suffer, un disco destinato a diventare una delle pietre miliari del Punk Hardcore melodico, quello che da li in poi sarebbe semplicemente stato definito come il "Punk Californiano".NoFX, OffSpring, Pennywise, tutti i gruppi successivamente hanno indicato quel album come il loro punto di riferimento 15 tracce, per una durata complessiva di 26 minuti, praticamente meno di due minuti di media a traccia 😅 38 anni dopo è ancora un disco unico, godibilissimo dalla prima all'ultima traccia, in un lungo grande respiro! Tra le mie preferite, "Give you nothing". Hey, everybody's looking but they never can seeAll the angst, corruption and the dishonestyThink about the times and places you've never knownYou're a man swarm atom and yet you're alone So I give you me, I give you nothingI give you me, I give you nothing So you got a place that you can call all your ownBut you make a habit of carrying the stoneLook around and ask someone if you are aliveYou're a sidewalk cypher speaking prionic jive So I give you me, I give you nothingI give you me, I give you nothing Respectable, despicable, it seems all the sameNow we realise that we have nothing to sayIf your reserve is weak, audacity completeAsk yourself again, do I deserve much from them No! Hey, everybody's looking but they never can seeAll the angst, corruption and the dishonestyLook around and ask someone if you are aliveYou're a sidewalk cipher speaking prionic jive So I give you me, I give you nothingI said I give you me, I give you nothing @musica@feddit.it #punk #badreligion #suffer #punkhc #california #skatepunk #giveyounothing #greggraffin #brettgurewitz #nofx #offspring https://youtu.be/8zrPheKNQZM
