Psychic ... Powerless isn't punk.

all my opinions, for any album or artist I care about, from the bottom:
>Bad Brains should be their first, or the even-better sounding Black Dots demos before it
>Flipper - Generic Album was a good choice
>Mission of Burma's Signals Calls and Marches EP is even better, and their Academy Fight Song/Max Ernst single even stronger than that
>Big Black's Songs For Fucking has always seemed so much better than Atomizer I always wonder what they're hearing in it
>not Camper van Beethoven's debut
>Minutemen's The Punch Line has always seeemed their strongest LP, followed by the consistently-good What Makes a Man Start Fires?. Double Nickels on the Dime has great stuff, but also some songs I won't call crap, but sound and feel much better live
>I always loved Husker Du's Everything Falls Apart so much better than either Zen Arcade or New Day Rising
I'm not going to discuss how Scruffy seems to misunderstand punk as a sound rather than an ethos. (probably shunted some of the harder-to-pin-down stuff into a "post-punk" list or something...)
Why does he never write out "..another man's sac"
Extremely conventional list of punk albums with no surprises at all
Plastic Surgery Disasters is way better than Fresh Fruit
