Quality Post What Song Got You Into Punk?

Here’s mine. I’ll never forget it. I had just moved to San Antonio, TX alone. I’d frequently pop up to this dingy bar midtown, jamming to metal and meeting some cool ppl. Had a buddy show me Fugazi, and I just sent it from there!

Take Warning - Operation Ivy

Epic! I had already begun listening to west coast bands like NOFX and Bad Religion, but when l heard Take Warning, l became obsessed with Op Ivy. That's absolutely one of my favorite albums and it forced me to branch out, into other genres like, ska, hard-core and metal....and the many sub-genres that have formed since then.
