buzzcocks

Buzzcocks fucking rule. Everybody's Happy Nowadays is an all time favorite song.

Whenever I hear the Buzzcocks I start thinking... why I am not nor having sex with the Buzzcocks blaring right now.

It's true.

PLEASE tell me you've read Patrick Marber's short story "Peter Shelley."

I used to have this great Buzzcocks compilation tape someone made for me in the 80's. Ironically, he was definitely someone I shouldn't have fallen in love with... but they are great... Thanks for reminding me how much I dug them...now I need to visit Amoeba and re-up!

Thanks, that definitely shook the cobwebs outta my head and got me moving this morning!!


and what a perfect album this is:

It really is one of the most solid albums ever. It's just made up of the 7" singles they put out over the 70's, so there is a range in the songs.

One of my fav bands ever.

Of all the late 70's punk bands, the Buzzcocks are second only to the Ramones and the Undertones in my book

Telephone Operator
You're my aural stimulator

That's cool a thread was made regarding my first comment!

"Nostalgia for an age yet to come.......!"

Definitely along with the RAMONES and the UNDERTONES, one of main elements that influenced many pop-punk acts (when it was a good word.)

I remember seeing when the BUZZCOCKS got back together in the 80's. I think one show, I saw them with Mike Joyce on drums.

Ha Ha! Yes. a heavy Manchester lilt can be quite maddening......

its a shame that i was late in finding the buzzcocks. I started listening to them maybe like...2 or 3 years ago and they are amazing. im really pissed cause the opened a show that i went to years ago and i had no clue who they were

Different Kind Of Tension

Why doesn't anybody ever mention this album when they talk about the Buzzcocks? A fantastic album with great songs such as I Don't Know What To Do With My Life, Paradise, You Know You Can't Help It, Mad Mad Judy, and a bunch more. I think is one of the most underrated punk/power-pop albums there is.
