strvs listen to hardcore ? oOo:

they dont sound hardcore, but they are highly associated with hardcore.

Minutemen- Bob Dylan Wrote Propaganda Songs

Minutemen pwn

sure theyre associated with hardcore, but theyre far more interesting musically than most hardcore

to each their own. they were all great musicians....d boon and mike watt... if you like the minutemen, i would check out Husker Du. i know you take all my musical suggestions with a grain of salt, but it couldnt hurt.

Husker Du- Something I Learned Today

I like Husker Du. i'm a fan of the post-punk movement and more adventerous forms of hardcore punk. what i don't like is the 3 chord straight edge rebellion anthem BS. i'm a really open minded person when it comes to music, theres great stuff in many genres..[/quote:4988d]
Straight Edge is 7 different chords. Im guessing you never heard Bad Brains or Black Flag. The bands that I think you mean are like Minor Threat, SS Decontrol, Negative FX, and DYS...all great bands but their music is simple. their message was what was most important, but then again you just said you didnt like all that crap.

and while Minor Threat was simple, they are far better than any music out today.

I've heard Black Flag, used to like them quite a bit. Have only heard slight amounts of Bad Brains, i'll give em another try. and yeah... if you're not really into the whole "message" of it the music is really uninteresting. And not that i'm against simple music, some of the most minimal music can be far more effective than overly complex stuff. Just seems like lots of those bands put more into the message than the music itself.. Just doesnt interest me.
