90s SKATEPUNK IS DEAD? NOFX, Bad Religion, Pennywise, The Offspring

What killed 90s skatepunk? In the late 90s, it felt like there was an endless supply of bands borrowing from NOFX, Pennywise and Bad Religion, some of them even getting close to the Billboard top 10.
But as popular as skatepunk was at its peak, it never got any bigger-- in fact, it kind of fizzled in the early to mid 2000s. Was it killed by the rise of bands like Blink-182 and New Found Glory, or did the gatekeeper attitudes of the genre's founders kill it??
A few of the things I touch on:
- The 1st gen skatepunk bands like Bad Religion, DI, JFA, RKL, and The Faction
- Why Nirvana, Green Day and The Offspring were indirectly responsible for the 90s skatepunk boom
- The 90s generation of skatepunk bands like NOFX, Strung Out, Pulley, The Vandals, Unwritten Law, Guttermouth and No Use For A Name
- Why Fat Wreck Chords and Epitaph were the key labels for 90s skatepunk and NOFX's "Punk In Drublic" was the most important album of the genre
- The "Punk O Rama" and "Survival Of The Fattest" sampler CDs
- Airwalks, chain wallets, dickies shorts, and other questionable 90s punk fashion choices

Please for the love of god! Do a "what killed ska" video!! Skate punk and ska went hand in hand in the 90s skate scene. At least where I lived. Anyway, would really love to hear your take on what happened there.

I just want to say that Propaghandi may not have been big where you lived, but up here in Canada, they were pretty well known. All the punk rock kids at my high school in Toronto knew about that band. This was in the late 90s/early 00's.

Idk about it being dead...im going to Gnarlytown Festival next month with Pennywise headlining and Nitro Circus is gonna be there as well as a skateboarding exhibition. I also back in October I wanna say went to Huntington Beach for Surf City Blitz with Social D, Bad Religion, Rancid, Pennywise, Suicidal Tendencies, Offspring, TSOL, Voodoo Glow Skulls, Fear, Mad Caddies I think was there too. Anyways both days were packed, even more so on day 2 probably because Social D was headlining and they always draw huge crowds in SoCal. Second day they said over 20 thousand people were there on the beach I think. Anyways, yes, there's not new bands in the genre, but when they show up so do the fans. They're older now, but still loyal. It's like Rolling Stones only they aren't charging over a hundred bucks for cheap seats at the Rose Bowl or the Coliseum.

BTW, I love u mentioning Face to Face and Lagwagon, those two bands I make sure I go see any time I see a show. Pulley is awesome. The reason Pulley didn't get so big is because their singer was a professional baseball pitcher. Played in the major leagues for a dozen years or so and even works as a pitching coach for various teams that sort of changes year to year now. He actually had another band before pulley named Ten Foot Pole that was legit, but they wanted to tour in the summer months. Unfortunately he had a baseball career. But ya, Pulley sort of plays only in the off months of baseball. It was originally Scott and members of other bands (including Jordan Burns from Strung Out playing guitars originally) doing shows in the baseball off-season. They still do the same sort of schedule today. Side note, a year ago Jordan Burns left Strung Out and I didn't know when I went to see them at Musink festival when Descendents headlined. It was literally a few weeks before the show he left the band. Travis Barker who is the promoter of the show every year played a few songs with them and those songs sounded like dogshit cause he doesn't play at that same tempo and kept going to blink 182 and transplants drum beats and it just sounded weird as fuck.

I feel a slight disagreement with Blink 182's role in this. In my opinion and certainly over here in the UK, they got a new generation of kids into Skate Punk and the scene was slightly revitalised by their popularity, as well as at the same time napster and filesharing was kicking off allowing many people (me included) to download every single punk album we could get our hands on. Everyone I knew into blink 182 was also into nofx and lagwagon. The real death of skatepunk I feel was with the emergence of emo, which kinda took pop punk with it too. And even Blink 182 started to sound much more serious. Things shifted from fun and goofy to sad and whiney very quickly.

@dtice69 5 жыл бұрын

@@cayliefuller7668 I think Dave means The Warped Tour back in the mid to late 90s. Back then the majority of the bands were still bands like The Offspring, Blink 182, Sublime (before Brad passed), Lagwagon etc. The early 2000s introduced more of the metalcore, emo, post hardcore bands which eventually overtook the tour and dragged it straight to hell. But, hey, it was invented for tweens, teens and young adults and that's what those people were into at the time. Can't blame them for trying to innovate.

@dtice69 5 жыл бұрын

Also, another thing to note that was missed: surf videos. As was mentioned in One Nine Nine Four, surf videos were packed with bands like Lagwagon and Pennywise and that was a good way to market those bands to kids in Minnesota and Kansas. Without that kind of initial exposure, the Warped Tour may have still been invented, but it probably would've stayed in California, maybe venturing out to the rest of the West Coast over time.

Growing up in Italy remember I went from having long hair, a leather jacket and a flat "ironing-board" skate board in the early 90's when I was listening to Iron Maiden and Metallica ...then Rage Against The Machine, Green Day, Vandals, The Offspring, NOFX, LagWagon, Pennywise and such in the mid nineties when I cut my hair, wore sagging shorts, t-shirt, wallet chain and airwalks and was riding a double tip skateboard... after that, in the late 90's, I was introduced to old school punk such as The Exploited, Total Chaos, The Clash, Angelic Upstarts: no more skateboarding, 7 inch mohawk, chains and studs everywhere and lots of beer... early 2000's I moved onto Ska-P, Woodoo Glow Skulls, Rancid and so forth and went back to skating a small microbard, but by that time, still listening to all the bands from before, I had moved onto Reggae Dancehall, Drum and Bass, Asian Dub Foundation and groups of the kind and had a dreadlock mohawk... now I am in my late thirties and really enjoy listening to all sorts of punk music although I kind of gave up the punk dress code. Definitely gave up skating since I broke my elbow falling from my skateboard... check out the new wave of Chinese Punk, they appear to have that energy that has gone missing in the West... we have our freedom now, they are still fighting to say what they think

It holds a special place un my heart in particuliar NOFX which is my favorite band ever. The songs on punk un drublic still have the same impact on me since the first I heard them. I actually started playing guitar to be in a punk band. I wish I could find good musicians in my area to start a punk-rock band again.

Holy shit, I'm three years late to the party but I just want to say, well done! This is easily the best (and only) mini doc on skatepunk I've ever seen. Coming from a person who was pretty involved in the scene, particularly the Fat crew, I can say that you pretty much nailed everything. The only difference is that three years on, there are some new bands beginning to make a dent. Nothing in the chart topping realms of yesteryear but skate punk is definitely on the rise, particularly with female skate punk bands (Bad Cop/Bad Cop, Bombpops, The Last Gang) and while more of a straight ahead pop punk album, the New Machine Gun Kelly album sold a LOT of units and was primarily written by Nick Long, a Santa Barbara skate punk scene OG. Give it another 4 or 5 years and I think we'll see something similar to if not quite exactly the same ride a wave of nostalgia to the top of the charts.

Great time, saw bad religion, AFI (pre-black sails), Pennywise, The Vandals etc etc etc. It really started to die out when all the MTV kids were wearing the punk genre and had their Blink182 shirts and were all sudden "punk". It blurred the lines. It seemed to me the punk scene did certainly have that elitist mentality as you mentioned. The scene also sucked. Everyone was so damn angry, and if you wanted to get INTO the scene, you were a poser. If you didin't know who OPIV was you were a poser. If you didint know a friend of a friend of a friend of a guy in a punk band you were a POSER. Then to add more to this SLC punk came out, and now if you didint know everyones name in that movie you were a POSER. (At this point i started to leave the punk music scene and do my own "thing".) Everyone was a freaking poser this or poser that. I remember 12 years old in the Vandals pit and man i got knocked down SO much, but every dude there would pick me up and keep me going. It was great. Now im that 34 year old guy at punk shows, and i love seeing kids there. If it wasn't for the emotional outlet IDK what I would have become so I owe my life to punk rock ironically.

Two things happened in the early 2000s that led to skate punks demise. First thing is most of these bands best albums had already been released, so they had nowhere to go but down. That kind of opened to door for the hardcore and metalcore bands to gain steam. The second thing is with eminem and 50cent getting huge many suburban kids were getting more interested in rap than underground rock or punk rock. Nothing lasts forever but seeing these bands live as a teen was awesome, and this was before the whole "scene kid" thing.

Great job with this video. I'm 37 and I totally still listen to Skatepunk. And you are 100% correct in the current crowds at shows. I would love to see a revival of the genre, especially more of the NUFAN/Lagwagon style. Thanks for putting this out.

I hate that you're right about the genre dying. That's why I got to every show possible while I can. I'm 53, so I'm about the same age the bands I'm seeing. It's going to be a sad day when all the bands I grew up with stop touring. The 80's really were the best decade!

had it not been for the tony hawk games I would have never gotten into bands like suicidal tendencies, dead kennedy’s, primus, anthrax etc. which led me to a bunch of others.

Rancid, and out come the wolves. The only album not mentioned that really committed my taste to this kind of music. Great video.

Rancid definitely not skate-punk mate ;)

@831santacruzloc 4 жыл бұрын

If not rancid than at least op ivy. Even though they’re more ska punk. I think they at least deserve an honorable mention considering the many, many, many times I’ve skated to they’re one album.

I'm pretty sure Pennywise's Bro Hymn is the official unofficial punk national anthem. Everybody pretty much stands for that song. I think they even closed the final warped tour date with that song.

Fun story - I saw Pennywise at Leeds Festival in the UK in 1999 playing to about 6k people in the punk tent (the festival otherwise holds something like 100k people). Their whole set people were just kinda standing there looking at them - eg the bit in Society where the music just kinda trails off, there was pretty much dead silence and they were looking at the crowd like "what the fuck is happening". They get to the end and start Bro Hymn and suddenly the place completely went off. Huge stage invasion, everyone singing along. I crowdsurfed OFF the stage and landed right next to Jim Lindberg who was pulling people over the barrier and he gave me a big hug. It was a weird but ultimately cool night.

Great video... I'm one of those people who got into punk through snow/skate videos when I was a teenager in the early to mid 90s. Still love the genre and have been to a couple of shows in the past 6 months. My kids aren't quite old enough to drive yet, but they're getting close. 😉 My favorite band is theline, mostly because I know/knew some of the members and they've actually put out new music recently.
