NOFX

Yes, they are 80s. With a song like "Reagan Sucks" it's hard to prove otherwise.

mmmm
nofx . . .


punk in drublic . . . thats some good stuff right there

...and pennywise, too.

They started in 1892, I believe.

1892????? Do you mean 1982? I hope you do.

stupid bros . . . .



i know nofx started in 83, but i have no clue when pennywise came about

Jim Lindberg (lead vocals), Fletcher Dragge (guitar), Byron McMackin (drums) and Jason Thirsk (bass) formed Pennywise in 1988. All of the members attended the same high school in Hermosa Beach, California, where they were involved with both punk rock and surfing. Thirsk had played in a local hardcore band called PMA, while the other members played with several other groups before the band actually came together. In 1989, they released their debut EP A Word from the Wise on Theologian Records. A local college DJ passed the record to Brett Gurewitz at Epitaph Records, and he signed the group in 1990. Pennywise's eponymous, full-length debut appeared the following year.

ohh...i forgot the chili peppers!

many.

of course, RHC is great!
The Kinks. They started in 1963 but have lasted till 00.
The Verve. 1989
Suede. 1989 too.
The Pretenders. 1978.
Damn. Many. I cant tell you all.

ahh..yes..the chili peppers.

and madonna..i love her.

haha now they would be OLD!

It's called a TYPO.

I meant 1982, but that might be wrong. They're 80s definitely.

Google says '84. Very close and I was just joking about the 1892 thing

we know what you meant we're just taking the piss

new order

i fuckin hate 80's music (not necessarily music produced then but music that sounds like its from then) .... new order kind of got me though

haha to listing the Kinks here (but its cool though cos they so rock)

Is fishbone of the 80s? other than that, Nirvana and the Gloo Girls(?)

Yes Fishbone are 80s.

How can anyone forget Metallica?

My two favorite songs will always be "One" and "Master of Puppets"

i don't know them that well but i like enter sandman...

happy birthday by the way, MO

Duran Duran
Nirvana
I dont know that many 80s bands

btw, how do you say Depeche Mode's name?

da-pesh mode (mode is pronounced the same way in English.) It means "fast fashion" in French.

i like new order too. and joy division.

How about Michael Jackson?

OLD micheal Jackson, when his skin was still dark?

Yeah he's 80s. His solo career anyways.

*turns up "Billie Jean"*

i loved micheal jackson back then. 'thriller' was the best song.

I dont think Niravana is an eighties band. Allthough "Bleach" was released in 1989, their fame was in the nineties (nevermind and in utero).
