Kid Dynamite

[SickOfStars]

How fucking ace was this band?

[James Johnson]

Great band, I still prefer None More Black but I think im not the only one. Great Jawbreaker song in your sig by the way!

[mikeford]

one of my favorite bands of all time.

[born to expire]

Amazing, but Lifetime is still infinitely better.

[SickOfStars]

Great band, I still prefer None More Black but I think im not the only one. Great Jawbreaker song in your sig by the way!

Haha, thanks for agreeing with my taste in Jawbreaker tunes. And I don't know what the hell it is, but I can't get into None More Black. I know I should, being a huge sucker for the Larry Arms (nice icon) and KD, but it's just not happening yet...perhaps I need some time.

Amazing, but Lifetime is still infinitely better.

I agree wholeheartedly (too pumped for show tomorrow)

[James Johnson]

Have you checked out the Loud About Loathing ep?? I think you would definately like it and I think its the best thing they've done yet. New album was good but not as good as that amazing ep!

[Blueskyburning]

quality band.

[Brandn3w]

lifetime > kid dynamite > paint it black

[Alex DiVincenzo]

Awesome band.

[Love American]

lifetime > kid dynamite > paint it black

but paint it black is still pretty decent in my opinion.

[SickOfStars]

lifetime > kid dynamite > paint it black

again, agreed.

[Zeran]

great band.

[i said poop]

saves the day > lifetime > kid dynamite

yea i said it.

[Rice and Bread]

Good but overrated.

[mikeford]

saves the day > lifetime > kid dynamite

yea i said it.

thats just wrong on so many levels

[SickOfStars]

saves the day > lifetime > kid dynamite

yea i said it.

:O shame on YOU, sir!

...though Saves the Day is higher on my list of favorite bands...

[Czarsy]

Yeah, they are pretty sweet. I like them better than Lifetime, but Paint It Black kills them all.

[duffe]

I love them. The self title is my fave.

[i said poop]

haha I always catch flak for liking saves the day more than lifetime or kd, but that's how I see it.

[escapist]

one of my favorite bands of all time.

agleed

[Wobbie]

I already know, mixtapes sound their best when i'm alone.

[Daneurysm]

lifetime > kid dynamite > paint it black

ding ding ding.

[Wobbie]

Lifetime = Kid Dynamite = Armalite = None More Black > Paint It Black. But PIB are still great. Dan Yemin can do no wrong. Armalite are amazing. They should get way more credit.

[Daneurysm]

i think this is the only band i've been listening to all week.
never met the gooch, wrist rocket, and bookworm have been on repeat.

[Daneurysm]

saves the day > lifetime > kid dynamite

yea i said it.

lifetime and std are kind of on the same level for me...yeah yeah yeah saves the day is a lifetime rip off but they're amazing none the less, at least in my opinion.

lifetime,saves the day>kid dynamite

[Wobbie]

Oh, and we should list all known KD offshoots/former bands.

I'll start with a few, and add some if you know them.

Dr. Dan - Lifetime, Paint It Black, Armalite
Spider - The Loved Ones
Jay - None More Black, OnGuard
Dave - Lifetime, Good Riddance (for a little bit in 2001), Paint It Black

I'm tired and that's all i can think of right now. Help me out here.

[Daneurysm]

off topic and random...i think the bassist from chain of strength is the bassist of alien ant farm...correct me if i'm wrong.

[Wobbie]

off topic and random...i think the bassist from chain of strength is the bassist of alien ant farm...correct me if i'm wrong.
Hahahaha. Very random. Yeah, but Chains split in '91, so i don't know what happened to him in the time before he joined them, haha.

Another member went on to be in Drive Like Jehu though, which is cool.

[CellarGhosts]

I finally got into this band and I'm lovin' it.

not as good as NMB but still, pretty fucking swt.

[wewascontenders]

Anyone know when the tribute CD comes out? Or if it is even still being released. I can't seem to find anything on it.

[ThemChains]

I don't really see how Saves The Day can even be compared to Lifetime and Kid Dynamite...unless you are solely talking about Can't Slow Down, other than that, their music far different from either of the above bands.

[Czarsy]

Yeah, they are pretty sweet. I like them better than Lifetime, but Paint It Black kills them all.
You are right.

[versus_god]

Woahohoh

[Carlo Marx]

fuck. one of the best bands ever.

Kid Dynamite > Lifetime > None More Black > Paint It Black.

like, by far. In the short time that they were a band they completely redefined melodic hardcore. lifetime was great but kid dynamite kills it.

[shit stroll]

wut i love all four bands equally

[CellarGhosts]

I like None More Black more than all of those bands. Fucking shoot me.

That's not to say I don't love those others as well though.

[versus_god]

Each of those bands could be my favorite on any given day, but I'm mostly with Chris here. Totally.

[WakeUpBlondie]

metro station> saves the day > lifetime > kid dynamite



fixed

[CellarGhosts]

Each of those bands could be my favorite on any given day, but I'm mostly with Chris here. Totally.
:highfive:

God, I can't wait for NMB to record something new. Totally. You know? Totally can't wait.

[versus_god]

Totally totally totally. I wanna go to the Fest and see None More Black and drink PBR and see None More black real bad. Real bad.

[shit stroll]

;-)

[CellarGhosts]

Totally totally totally. I wanna go to the Fest and see None More Black and drink PBR and see None More black real bad. Real bad.
I'm gonna grow a neckbeard, strap on my New Balances, hop on my bike and high tail it to The Fest, wearing my favorite flannel shirt and drink a ton of PBR.

There, I think I covered all the stereotypes. And I actually do wear flannel. Whatever.

[Carlo Marx]

NMB is great and all, but nowhere near the greatness of KD.

[AP_Punk]

Kid Dynamite tribute set for Spring, tracks from Ergs, This Is Hell, Broadway Calls (http://www.punknews.org/article/30907)

[Anderson]

off topic and random...i think the bassist from chain of strength is the bassist of alien ant farm...correct me if i'm wrong.:-0 :-d Really? Chain Of Strength>Every other band in this thread.

[SwiftSilentDead]

Kid Dynamite is the shit.

Their split with 88 Fingers Louie is damn near legendary.

[Czarsy]

:-0 :-d Really? Chain Of Strength>Every other band in this thread.

...What the fuck does Chain of Strength have to do with Kid Dynamite...?

[Anderson]

...What the fuck does Chain of Strength have to do with Kid Dynamite...?Fuck all, but this came up:

off topic and random...i think the bassist from chain of strength is the bassist of alien ant farm...correct me if i'm wrong.So I offered my opinions on COS and KD. I like Kid Dynamite, Lifetime and Paint It Black, but I really like Chain Of Strength.

[CellarGhosts]

Heart A Tact is such a fucking jam.


I'm just throwing this out there.

[ThemChains]

We listen to Kid Dynamite when we are all working on pieces.

[tehdangerdave]

Heart A Tact is such a fucking jam.


I'm just throwing this out there.

Definitely agreed.

[CellarGhosts]

Definitely agreed.
Good man :highfive:

We listen to Kid Dynamite when we are all working on pieces.
Haha, loads of awesome.

[ThemChains]

Good man :highfive:


Haha, loads of awesome.

By listen, I mean I put it on, and everyone else deals with it. By we I mean the other sculpture majors around. We had final critiques today, so we are having a sweet bonfire at my house.

[CellarGhosts]

hah that's cool. I guess you're relieved to have final critiques out of the way?

[ThemChains]

Yes, donezo. My piece didn't work out like I wanted, but it wasn't a total failure.

[CellarGhosts]

That's good I guess. I've still got one big project left in my fund. of design class but other than that things should be pretty easy for me.

[ThemChains]

That doesn't sound so bad.

[CellarGhosts]

Yeah, I got some pretty laid back classes this semester. Our drawing teacher let us order in pizza last night. haha

[SwiftSilentDead]

I'M COMING ALIVE, ALIVE THROUGH YOU!x

[CellarGhosts]

:headbang:

[shit stroll]

anyone order cheap shots, youth anthems repress?

[Carlo Marx]

Oh my god, I love kid dynamite.

listening to both full lengths right now. so good. not a bad track on either of them.

i miss this band too much.

[SwiftSilentDead]

I rock out to the self/titled and their split with 88FL farily often.

[CellarGhosts]

Heart a Tact is still one of the sexiest songs ever.

[Carlo Marx]

Heart a Tact is still one of the sexiest songs ever.

heart a tact is the best melodic hardcore song ever written.

[CellarGhosts]

heart a tact is the best melodic hardcore song ever written.
you know, you're probably right.

[Carlo Marx]

woah oh
once again we lost the role
to boredom and late nights on the radio

[CellarGhosts]

:headbang:

[Heart-A-Tact]

Been listening to the self titled a lot lately.

[JimGray]

<3 this fucking band.

[CellarGhosts]

<3 this fucking band.
makes two of us :highfive:

[JimGray]

makes two of us :highfive:

W007!

[CellarGhosts]

Still like None More Black more though. WHATEVER, MAN.

[JimGray]

Still like None More Black more though. WHATEVER, MAN.

I hated them cos they toured with The Casualties, then I heard Dinner's For Suckers and was like...

yup. Pwnt.

[Heart-A-Tact]

Still like None More Black more though. WHATEVER, MAN.

I won't hate. This band has spawned a lot of good bands.

[CellarGhosts]

I hated them cos they toured with The Casualties, then I heard Dinner's For Suckers and was like...

yup. Pwnt.
Hahaha. loves that song. I'd sit through the Casualties for NMB any day. :shrug:

[JimGray]

Hahaha. loves that song. I'd sit through the Casualties for NMB any day. :shrug:

I know, but I fucking loathe the Casualties.

[CellarGhosts]

I know, but I fucking loathe the Casualties.
Oh, I do too. Don't get me wrong. But my loathing of the Casualties is outweighed by my love for all things Shevchuk :-d

[CellarGhosts]

I won't hate. This band has spawned a lot of good bands.
Word. I just got a friend one mine into Kid Dynamite/None More Black/Lifetime/Paint It Black/Armalite/etc. Good times.

[JimGray]

Oh, I do too. Don't get me wrong. But my loathing of the Casualties is outweighed by my love for all things Shevchuk :-d

Haha, I find it funny that as we discuss this, my Winamp went from Kid Dynamite to Mono.

Weird.

[Heart-A-Tact]

Word. I just got a friend one mine into Kid Dynamite/None More Black/Lifetime/Paint It Black/Armalite/etc. Good times.

Ahaha. The proof is there.

[CellarGhosts]

Weird.
Orly? Weird haha.

Ahaha. The proof is there.
Haha, srlsy. That's one solid effin' musical family tree right there.

[JimGray]

Orly? Weird haha.


Haha, srlsy. That's one solid effin' musical family tree right there.

Yes weird, and I always get excited when someone discovers like any Jade Tree band. I got my friend into Lifetime, and now her musical tastes have expanded a hundred million times.

[CellarGhosts]

Sweet deal. I love seeing my friends get into the same stuff that I like. I've gotten a few of them into Larry Arms now, as well as bands like Lifetime/Kid Dynamite/etc.

[Carlo Marx]

word on the street is that jason shevchuk digs jerk city. if this is true, i think we're bound by law to sucker him into doing a guest vocal spot on our album.

[JimGray]

I feel like an idiot for not knowing you are in Jerk City. My friend Tyler helped book your Vermont show haha.

[CellarGhosts]

[ThemChains]

Jamaica Jerk Saucity.

[CellarGhosts]

Jerk Suburb


That's the best I can do. You win.

[ThemChains]

YES! John 1 Chris 0.

Suck it, bitch.

[CellarGhosts]

I admitted defeat, there is nothing for me to suck.

So suck THAT, beach.

[Carlo Marx]

I feel like an idiot for not knowing you are in Jerk City. My friend Tyler helped book your Vermont show haha.

haha really? the burlington crowd was awesome man. it was actually one of the better stops on tour.

[Carlo Marx]

Jerk off City.

BAAAAAAAAH-ZING!

pwned.

[JimGray]

haha really? the burlington crowd was awesome man. it was actually one of the better stops on tour.

Glad to hear it, I was not present unfortunately.

Did you get to meet Tyler Bean? You most likely met Joe Beaulio or however it is spelled.

Broseph Bolio...

[wewascontenders]

apparently that tribute record finally has a release date. anyone know when?

[SwiftSilentDead]

apparently that tribute record finally has a release date. anyone know when?

July 7th.

[AP_Punk]

haha. that thing's taking foreverrrr

[SwiftSilentDead]

For real. I've been waiting for it to be released for like almost a year now.

[eHaMpToN]

simply amazing. i just watched four years in one gulp, everyone should peep that ASAP

[CellarGhosts]

I do want to see that.

[Heart-A-Tact]

Apparently, those people putting out that tribute record are in the same neck of the woods as me. Never realized. Stoked for that thing, though.

EDIT: I really want to hear Comadre's cover.

[SwiftSilentDead]

Tribute album:
http://www.punknews.org/article/33933

There's some good ones, and some bad ones.

[CellarGhosts]

Pretty cool although I would've preferred seeing No Trigger do "Heart a Tact".

[Anderson]

Tribute album:
http://www.punknews.org/article/33933

There's some good ones, and some bad ones.
That's the way it goes with most tribute albums.

[SwiftSilentDead]

True, true.

Really liked the covers from Broadway Calls, Hour of the Wolf, No Trigger, The Ergs, This Is Hell and a few others I can't remember the names of.

Hated the "Never Met The Gooch" cover. The "Shiner" cover wasn't too good either.

[AllSewnUp]

I've been missing Kid Dynamite lately and listening to the tribute album a lot. I think Sakes Alive!! did News at 11 justice and I really dig No Harm Done.

[duffe]

When I miss KD, I listen to Shook Ones. (or KD's albums).

bump. listening to them quite a bit lately and does anyone know who does guest vocals on "Three's A Party"?

Andy West form Kill Your Idols and Fast Ali (aka Alison Chin) from Fast Times, who has also appeared nude in some b-grade movies. Don't ask me how i know this :-d

[Dre Okorley]

Saw their reunion show...awesome. Crowd was rowdier than Bane @ Hellfest '02.

[Dre Okorley]

Andy West form Kill Your Idols and Fast Ali (aka Alison Chin) from Fast Times, who has also appeared nude in some b-grade movies. Don't ask me how i know this :-d

Fast Times was the jam. So mad they called it quits. From what I remember she's an SG now...

[ThisIsNotDan]

thank you! honestly not sure how weird this sounds but I thought it was Thomas from Strike Anywhere for a minute

[Wobbie]

Fast Times was the jam. So mad they called it quits. From what I remember she's an SG now...
Yeah, Fast Times were great. Didn't know she was a SG though. But in her sex scene in Pistol Whipped, she is interrupted by Steven Seagal busting into the room with a gun, haha. That's pretty badass :-d And she was of of the people at the party/orgy in Shortbus.

Haha, crazy, she's been living quite the life. :-d

[Wobbie]

You're welcome :-) Haha. Can't say i hear it as Thomas at all though :-d

[Wobbie]

Haha, crazy, she's been living quite the life. :-d
Haha, yes she has. Who would have thought :-d

[feesh]

I don't think it was so much that Dynamite was underrated as it is that he's been forgotten. Dynamite was pretty banged-up when he and Davey finally got into the WWF. Years of his daredevil style, plus steroid abuse, had taken it's toll on his body. It's strange to say so about such a young man, but his best days were before he got to the WWF. He continued that same daredevil style (and steroids) in the WWF and his skills just kept diminishing due to his body falling apart.

After Dynamite had to retire so young due to the back injury that put him in a wheelchair, Davey continued on, forming other successful teams and having great success as a singles wrestler, as well, both in the WWF and in WCW. Dynamite's success as a singles happened in Stampede and in Japan where he is a legend. As we all know, according to Vince McMahon, there is no wrestling beyond the "WWE Universe".

It doesn't help that the WWE doesn't even mention that Dynamite wrestled for them. The WWE sorely NEEDS to put out a Bulldogs DVD so this generation can see how talented and innovative the Bulldogs, especially Dynamite, were.
