Best 21st Century Punk LPs

problemface

I agree that the Dumpers are a noteworthy band but I think they were better live than on record. the full lengths they put out don’t do much for me. I’m sure many would disagree.

I’m not a fan of the direction hardcore has taken over the past decade or so. it seems like it’s dominated by jock-core/beatdowm type shit. I would probably add a Regulations or Career Suicide record to my list to scratch the hardcore itch.

filthqueen666

A few classics that come to mind are:
Assorted Anxieties - Erik Nervous (though I guess it’s a collection of singles and EPs in LP format)
Viet Cong - Preoccupations
Under Color of Official Light - Protomartyr
Trampoline Team - s/t
Ausmuteants - s/t
Probably gonna get dragged for this but Melted -Ty Segall is amazing and super influential for better or worse.

Lincoln

filthqueen666 Agree with the Ausmuteants LP. Also, the Imaginary Person track from Melted is one of this wretched century's highlights.

ExpKind

Hunches--Exit Dreams (which might be #1 for me)
Lamps--Under the Water Under the Ground (total monster)
Homostupids--The Load
Mordecai--any of the first three (love them all, but those are the peak)

I have a ton of personal favorites (Rat King, Coltranes, Slump), but I don't know if they would go on an overall best list.

ExpKind how could I forget The Hunches? hell, I’d even add a Lavender Flu record to my best-of list. I find myself listening to them more than the Hunches these days, but Exit Dreams is my favorite record of theirs too.

Bad Times, Bad Times

PaddyBullocks thought that was late 90s, but you’re right… it came out in ‘01. 2000 to 2005 was an amazing time for garage punk.

Lets not forget Zeke - Death Alley

problemface

Emil M. Antonowsky let’s save that for best RAWK albums of the 21st century. actually, Zeke was one of the fastest bands I’ve ever seen. the speed in which they played was insane. no breaks in between songs either

Mark Smith

Amazing. Wasn’t gonna even going to scroll thru to see if it was there because I was certain that ‘Nautical Rock N Roll’ wouldn’t be. Props for giving props to a most prop-able record.

Mark Smith for better or worse, I'm committed for life
