Hello R&P! Mama Jamie's alphabet of punk: D (Wow, I wish more people would answer! =P)?

Well first off, hello!

I will start off with...Discharge, of course. A very influential band from England forming in 1977. Gained the respect of punk and metal fans.

Fight Back

And my other band is Disrupt. A little heavier than most of what I post. They are a crust punk band (can also be categorized as grindcore) from Massachusetts they formed in 1992 and I think they are still playing.

Mass Graves

Some more good punk bands (some crust/anarcho some are not) that start with a 'D' are...

DS-13, Disclose, Disfear, Disorder, (the) Damned, Dropdead, Doom, DIRT, (the) Dead Boys

SO my questions are...

Which band do you prefer...?

What do you think of each?

What is YOUR favorite "D" band?

As always, thank you all, I truly appreciate it!

=)

    Well, of the first two, Disrupt, though Discharge are good. I have a Disrupt back patch on my flannel though, so I gotta go with them. Obviously I like them both though. Of all the other bands, I have heard of all of them, but have only listened to DS-13, Dropdead, Doom, and DIRT enough to really judge, and I like them all. I probably like Dropdead or DS-13 the most of all of those. I've heard a bit by all though, and they are all ok to good (though the Damned or Dead Boys are at the bottom of my list). My favorite (punk or punkish) D band is going to be a toss-up between Defiance, Ohio and Dystopia.

    Discharge-

    This is definitely not my favorite punk band that you've shown off but still pretty good. I went through periods of the songs of liking and not liking the singers voice but overall I would give it a thumbs up.

    Disrupt-

    Being the Metalhead that I am I really loved this band! I especially liked the second song, "Mass Graves". The harsh vocals where really good and the entire band was just really heavy which is something that appeals to me.

    Out of those two bands I would have to say I liked Disrupt better because of the heavyness.

    My favorite D band: I think it would have to be Death!

    Well, it takes us time to listen to the songs (even if they're short). I prefer Discharge, but only because it's not too heavy. Both of them have too much screaming and sound sorta like metalcore to me. For this type of punk, I like The Casualties more than those two, but they're still pretty good.

    ...

    TELL YOU HOW AMAZING THOSE BANDS ARE!!! That's some good sh*t!!

    I loved Disrupt, which is odd because I don't listen to grindcore...

    They were all out of my usual genres but all very good!

    My favorite D band? Right now it's D'espairsRay, a nice industrial rock/metal band from Japan =)

    I listened to "Fight Back" and enjoyed it. I'm not a huge punk fan, but this is undeniably a quality tune.

    I couldn't get into either of the songs by Disrupt, though, unfortunately.

    I definitely prefer Discharge, from these samples. =)

    As for the broad "D" question --

    I dig Depeche Mode, Does It Offend You, Yeah?, and Duran Duran. I also love many artists named David -- Bowie, Byrne, Gray. It seems the name David goes hand-in-hand with talent and intelligence... lol

    Dead Kennedys!

    Hmm, let's see...

    I supposed I prefer The Damned, out of all of them. Not about to rush out and see them live or anything, though.

    Idk any of them well enough to really make that call.

    My favorite "D" band... Hmm... Danzig. Also Love Defiance, Ohio; Depeche Mode; The Doors; Dresden Dolls; and The Dutchess & the Duke.
