one of the most beautiful punk songs ever written.

Great song, great movie! Most of the punks you see at the gigs in this movie were recruited off the streets of Hollywood, etc. Classic! Love the 80s punk bands!

best punk film i still watch it in 2024

this song pretty much DESCRIBES the sound of TRUE AMERICAN PUNK music. this song is so unique.......

I remember TSOL came to my the local venue and the singer kept saying that everything was so nice.... That the lights were nice and the people were nice and the stage was nice and the speakers were nice and the town was nice and the venue was nice. It was pretty funny

Definitely the best version of this song I can find, one of my all-time favorite movies too.

you guys can't watch this unless you get a TR burn!

I watched this movie over and over again when I was 14. I bought this TSOL record at Sound Idea in Brandon and was never the same. This is one of the most epic parts of this movie. I had a TR patch on the back of my bomber jacket too

lo ve this movie.... love this song!!!! he is so cute here!!!!! gorgeous!!!!

gotta luv that synth at the end....

Jack was the punk Elvis.... surely one of the greatest frontmen of punk. When the cops tried to shut down a show in SD, Jack said, no way, everyone sit down and stay calm.. the 2 cops just eventually left and TSOL finished their show

My favorite version of this song... Roger Corman produced this movie but Penelope Spheeris should be credited for it as she wrote and directed this cult classic.

worked at a video store early 90s had suburbia VHS checked out every week. this soundtrack has been in my car for the last year, omg, VHS, i remember the big wow when laser disc came out, a record that plays movies? the VHS is smaller.

I love this movie so much. I love this band so much.

i love this movie i watch it 2 times a day

true mate,punks actually fought for what they belived in back then too

Beneath The Shadows still my favorite TSOL album

badass...I love this movie and TSOL

Jack was such a badass in this era

R.I.P., Todd.

yeah buddy!!! true sounds of liberty forever in memory of jg!!!!

@TheTrainRex you just never know who you will find in any of these classic 80s flicks. I saw Jean Claud Van Damme in a breakdancing video a couple of days ago.. TSOL..they remain one of my favorite punk bands. :)

They’re (ahem) DAMNED good.

in a great movie

I miss this era....

Great song from a great album by a great band.

I never knew he was in the movie because of a chick he was dating at the time. BAD ASS FUCKING SONG ILL WEAR TSOL TILL THE DAY I DIE

the pit looks so fun

I saw them on tour for this material, must have been shortly after this was shot. Never before or since have I seen a band with 3 frontmen, each more charismatic than the next. They were a force of nature, I miss 'em, the reunion videos look pretty sad compared to my memories.

@TheNewMusicNetwork Thanks for the info..great movie

This movie was made in the late 80's shortly after that say mid 90's punk went mainstream and now the same people TR were fighting have mohawks. The music also became watered down. Prime example is Alkaline Trio cover of TSOL's song

@aupsychobilly Awww thanks, it is a great movie..never get tired of watching it. One of the punks was picked up off Melrose Avenue when it was a hot spot. I know for a fact cuz my Brother went to school with him in Montebello..;)

i could cry

Ooh, nice synths towards the end. Cool addition to an already awesome song.

WAAAAAASH AWAY...what a fucking beautiful piece of punk sound

i slammed when tsol played this song sunday night

Love that movie . Skinner I hang all these nail.but no one hangs nothing .

if you pause at @1:21 , the dude looks like jon walmsley, the guy who played as Jason Walton on the tv show the waltons

Agreed! This and River's Edge.

ya, this movie is why we named my son Evan. He was first named Ethan for about half an hour.

Fuck yeah

that was a guy and a girl with short blond hair. lol This movie is awesome if you haven't seen it it's a good Punk movie.:)Love this song.

L.A. punx had the best hair styles. more of a surf-punk look.

cant wait for the special edition DVD this year.

No doubt.

@NicholasMcIntosh He's the producer of this film. His name is all over the official dvd release

It fucking rules when you watch it like that right/ LOL after the 40th time it starts feeling your part of them, as a family and you care about them and cry for them and actually care.

my fuckin favorite movie

This song is originally from TSOL.

greatest punk movie ever suburbia also check out sid and nancy slc punk and DUDES

john grisham is so epic on stage hahhaha.

Yea thats true, its free to do a mohawk, and you dont need friends, you can do it alone. And the leather jackets, the punks who wear leather jackets they wear the same jacket all his life in many cases

dude in tha moshpit w/ bright red hair is Casey Royer from D.I.

They've had Darker My Love on the website for download for a long time now ...Wash Away as well

@msbhvn1 Haha Slash from Guns'n'Douchebags I mean Roses was in those crowds in the movie.

I got it on dvd from amazon, you can probably find a copy there

i got it on dvd from amazon. you might want to look there

@BarrioPunkRock flea has a cast role in the film

01 was here.

Holy shit this rules

Is it me or does Jack Grisham look like Darby crash?

01 was here

LOL. I loved this movie as a kid but holy crap... was that Emilio Estevez that just went cruising by in the pit?

When you get 40 like me and have an experience close to that you come here to say what is disappointing or not. Sorry! If you didn´t live this, don´t come up to say the movie was this or that. The end was brutal as the whole shit was conceived to be!

@TheNewMusicNetwork Oc punks yes...but the Nest was closed December of 81...and the footage used was shot in 83.

aww jack is so young here!!!!

LOL, major thumbs up!

this is probably the best version of wash away. saw the movie,it was great. damn,back then punk rock/hardcore was so much better. i can see. now punks just bein sabotaged by corporate bullshit

yes yes yes .. it inspires me to trythe synth more in my own writing

i stand myself corrected..that was stevo from vandals lol

Good movie. Sorta. It can get a little cheezy in some spots.

Aguante el gótico

@Iamnotapunk I just made on the same canvas material from those back patches and paint

That's exactly what I thought. I found pretty much everyone else's song from Suburbia but them. >:( If I could I would do it myself I have the movie but I don't know how. lol

That's cuz punk was real back then ;)

2:08 Keef is so badass

Casey Royer

What is this song even called?

Suburbia rules/sucks..it is kinda cheesy,but at the same time awesome cuz it's soo cheesy! but TSOL in the movie makes up for it all!!

punk can be almost anything ;)

oh, and skinner

It's just you.

Roger Corman only produced it... Penelope Spheeris wrote and directed the movie. This was TSOL's peak before Joe Wood took over lead singer and then the asshats at Enigma ruined TSOL.

[2:15] Woo, rough ol' hardcore punk show with the microphone-bonking, laughing, and back-punching. Um, definitely don't search KZfaq for 'Minor Threat live Buff Hall.'

lol ya this movie killed it... lol no but really its all a gimmick in reality but fun

it isnt so hard to cut to mohawk. its cheap, free if you have friends. only problem is to dye hair. and jackets, punks are "editing" their jackets for years.

Is this Jack or the other guy. I'm not as big a fan as others.

penelope spheeris wrote and directed suburbia. who is roger corman? imdb.com/title/tt0086589/

Penelope Spheeris did this movie-not Roger

@msbhvn1 hey cutie pie...they look like a mix of OC/LA

And don't forget Bad Religion

@scottsmidgetfarm I heard he ran for mayor once lol

i like punk rock and all but metal is better mabye you should look into that?

Punk died shortly after this movie was made.

So did Alkaline Trio cover this song or something?

T.S.O.L it was sad in the later years when jack tryed doing less punk songs and people would boo him off stage.I think anybody past there 20's should not make punk music they just turn into sell out's like greenday making pop music. Oh SID were are u know?

lol then what music is it? country?

that was joe wood

What a brilliant statement, I'm guessing that you're an honor student?
