What was GG Allin's best musical work? What are some albums/eps I should check out? I just got into him.
>>
>>63463612
His country albums are great.
>>
GG Allin was a poser.
>>
>>63463612
GG is a performance artist, the best way to understand his Art is to check out some of the videos were he gets naked and shits on stage
>>
>>63463612
There is no "best work" from GG allin. He was first and foremost a performance act. He only did crazy stuff on stage to cover up for his lack of talent.

it's all run of the mill, generic ass punk. his country stuff was better

>He only did crazy stuff on stage to cover up for his lack of talent.

or maybe he was talented but music wasnt his focus... he made bad music as an art statement. way better artist (and i mean real artist not every corporate pop figure to be promoted as a mass content provider) than half of the musicians you fags praise on here.
>>
>>63464037
lol ok yeah man down with the system anarchy 1999
>>
>>63464037
that sounds like a pretentious excuse as to why his music is the way it is. If you read up on some of his history, it becomes apparent that he was not smart enough to make such a statement. You are reading way too deep into it.
>>
>>63463699
>>63464037

I think you are all reading way too much into him. I think he just made shitty punk music and was a crazy dude. I don' think there was any deep artistic intention behind his 'act'. Then again we could debate even unintentional art could have a deeper meaning.

GG Allin was more than shitty punk music. He was the last American Hero. In my personal pantheon he's up there with Trump, Charles Manson and Yukio Mishima. The true rebels... this pussy ass society could sure use some GG. Just imagine how could it would be if he was alive to BTFO Christians and SJWs
>>
>>63463612
He's a rapist and a hack but check out his seven inch with Tiny Tim
>>
>>63465733
Christians are harmless, fuck off. GG Allin was just a degenerate. The values he embraced were violence, degeneracy and narcissism. Far from an 'American hero'.
>>
his early work like Banned in Boston largely consists of slick, energetic, and tremendously catchy pop punk, if you're into stuff along the lines of Ramones and Dead Boys it's worth a shot

Freaks, Faggots, Drunks, and Junkies features lame, under-produced punk alongside cool sludgy noise rock, with two or three tracks of demented rants set to explosive guitar noise. an inconsistent release, but its best moments are among the best in allin's career

The Troubled Troubadour, with nothing more than vocals and acoustic guitar, contains introspective and heartfelt lo-fi outlaw country. also one of gg's best musical moments, imo

Carnival of Excess is also outlaw country but with a full band and thus a fuller musical sound.

he was a pretty underrated musician imo, but his discography admittedly contains more duds than worthwhile releases.
>>
>>63466037
Bite It You Scum is his best song
>>
>>63465843
Christian basically worship weakness. Jesus Christ was the original SJW. Me, I am a nihilist and a social darwinist, my only politics is survival of the fittest

i've always been partial to Expose Yourself to Kids

>>63466085
They don't. I don't think you understand the teachings of Jesus. Perhaps you could read them and gain a better insight.
>>
His discog is huge but the good stuff is hella good. Punk could use another figure like GG
>>
None because he was a talentless hack

Check out albums like E.M.F. and Always Was, Is, and Always Shall Be. Anything before 1985, especially with his first band, The Jabbers, is great. After 1985, the music goes down hill, in my opinion. You don't need any albums after Boozing and Pranks. Halfway decent pop punk with potty mouth lyrics.

"musical works"
gg alin wouldve kicked you for that

This

Banned in Boston is an excellent pop punk album. Bored to Death and 1980's Rock n Roll are some of the best pop punk songs ever.

I couldn't care less about what GG Allin became after this. It was all just shock value edginess.
>>
Fuck GG Allin, I am so glad that sick son of a bitch died.
>>
>>63471207
This.

The degenerate scum thrashed around in its own shit and is now dead. Nothing of value was lost.
>>

>>
>>63466085

>>
>>63466085
