    Anyone listen to the Buzzcocks? I just recently started listening to them great fuckin punk band. There one of the original ones. I think. I was really into punk in highschool and can't believe I never heard of them up until now. Some of my favorite tunes by them area orgasm addict, Fast Cars, and Teenage Kicks.

    I think they are great, and wrote some of the catchiest songs of anyone.

    Buzzcocks are OK.
    Bit Popish for my liking, I was more into Stiff Little Fingers and X Ray Spex.
    Think you will find out that Teenage Kicks is by The Undertones though.

    I think Teenage Kicks is an Undertones song. But Singles Going Steady is something EVERYONE should own, it's like owning a Dylan record, even if you don't listen to it often you should have it.

    You all should try out some Magazine, It's what Howard Devoto did after he quit the Buzzcocks. It's firstclass Joy Division-esque post-punk.

    Yeah Teenage Kicks is such a good song John Peel cried when he heard it. (If you don't know who John Peel is, you should)
