Lets Start Our Warped invasion with The Casualties shall we?
My God they stepped on the stage and I was instantly in love. There is something amazing about giant Mohawks and filthy punk rockers.
An amazing band from NYC. “We Are All We Have” released in 2009 was the last studio album I can find but it seems these guys tour non stop.
Literally.
Way back when before Hot Topic and prepacked ‘punk in a box”, was this
Raw powerful strong MEN singing yelling cursing and playing so damn fast you cant keep up.
They’re not saving the world they have no fucking message they’re there to give you 40 min of raw energy and allow you to sweat your ass off as you frantically try to keep up with the beat. The crowd looked a bit puzzled at first but quickly got on board.
We need more punk rock boys.. we need them now.
Loved that they gave a shout out to their forefathers with a frantic “Blitzkrieg Bop” and had I known of them I’d love to have interviewed them.
Considering their touring schedule, I’ll catch them on the next go round.
