Top 20 OC Albums of All Time

[nate]

Other bands in CaliAngel's top 3: My Chemical Romance and Taking Back Sunday.

 

I swear all the Emo Kids are now hipsters.

[Brandon]

Thrice is great.

 

Last year when they did their final tour run the SD, OC, and LA shows sold out so fast. I never even seen anything like that with Ticketmaster. So I bought tickets to the Portland show and we decided to make a trip out of it for a week. (They later added OC dates)

 

A great nostalgic experience, but we also were the lucky ones of the tour because it was the only stop where Dustin came out after the show to the parking lot and did an acoustic set.

 

One of my all time favorite bands.

The Offspring?  Sigh.

[Ray McKigney]

I don't like them at all, but I was surprised that Korn wasn't on the list.

Are they OC or LA?  If they are including LA you have to add Jane's Addiction.

And RHCP.

I know Korn was out of Huntington Beach around the time of their first album. Maybe that's not where they originated though.

[nate]

I actually became more of a Korn fan toward the end of their reign.  Initially I hated them but they grew on me.

What about a7x

Lol.

Another band that suffered from all their music sounding the same.  Same with Disturbed.

[Brandon]

lol.

 

I remember saying I didn't like ax7's music when the drummer od'ed and it ruffled some feathers and one dude in particular that didn't post too much was going off on everyone that didn't like ax7.

 

Good times on the old board.

[Lhalo]

I remember that thread. That dude was heated.

[Ray McKigney]

They suck

 

lol.

Sublime played in a few OC (mostly Huntington Beach) backyards, but they were definitely Long Beach.  Understandable tho, as LB is claimed as North-OC for it's non-violent contributions...

 

There's a sh*t ton of bands that could've made that list... Just off the top of my head-  Cadillac Tramps (SantaAna)- later morphed into Rule62 (I filled-in playing drums for some of their "off-broadway" shows), Big Drill Car (HB), Farside (HB), Something Corporate (Laguna/ South OC), Uniform Choice...

 

I remember skating to the sounds of Agent Orange all the time... and seeing No Doubt on the quad at CSULB before they caught-on... Lotsa good sounds in the OC..

I saw Sublime play at Goldenwest College in maybe '94. Was funny as hell. The singer was so hammered. They came out and noodled around for about 10 minutes and then attempted to play a song and the singer couldn't remember what song it was or how to play it or the lyrics. After about a half hour of them basically doing nothing but making noise, the cops showed up and shut it down because there was no permit.

[Brandon]

I totally forgot about Something Corporate. I remember the off-shoot as well, Jacks Mannequin.

[Jason]

I was getting nervous until I got to the last page and finally saw Social D on there. I guess I'm biased but Avenged Sevenfold should of made the list.

I listened to Farside for the first time in 10 years on Spotify earlier this week. I hadn't thought about them in forever.

 

D-i should get some props too. Casey Royer is a punk legend and started Social D with Mike Ness back in the day. Now he makes sandwiches at the Subway by my house.

[Brandon]

DI was a big influence.

 

It was wishful thinking, but I was hoping Guttermouth made the list. My first show at the Glasshouse.

[nate]

My first show at the Glasshouse was the Ataris opening for the Vandals.  I think a band named Fallout played first.

[Spirit]

Nothing on the list from La Mirada's Stryper?!?!

 

FAIL

[LBHalos17]

Was just reading the thread about Weiland being dumped from his band...  Stone Temple Pilots should be on this list as well, since he was an HB boy.
