A Gang of Disco Punks With Bad Attitudes And 4/4 Time!

[nfotxn]

See, the best thing about all the disco punk shit going on right now is the death of all those retarded punk political beliefs. Not that I don't think anarchy has it's place in the great political spectrum but I'm sure we've all been in the following place: You're at a party and somebody has discoved that you like music. This person is clad in well arranged buttons on an old leather jacket, perfectly coifed hair and some plaid. There's probably a Black Flag or Rancid patch somewhere although the later comes with a disclaimer.

You stand there, perhaps a beer or other drink in hand sure that you are going to be subjected to the worst of party time fates: The Punk Lecture. Between cigarette drags you hear all about "that dude Che" and how the "pigs hate anarchy 'cause it..." etc.

So combine the vapidness of disco with the aggression of punk and you have: disco punk! Musically I'm also looking forward to hearing some punk bands with consistant meter and some cowbells. It's gonna make good party music for the next few years.

Yay someone knows about Radio 4 besides me!!!

Isn't that the pattern of most music trends?

Discover a music trend in a (sort-of) far off place.
The song and/or the group becomes a hit in that country
and then at least a year or two (or more) the attempt to conquer the North American market.

And that pattern still exists even in the advent of the internet.
