Punk And Disorderly DVD

| DVD

While Punk & Disorderly is a haphazard compilation and hardly the definitive document of punk the sleeve notes would have one believe, it does serve a couple of useful purposes. The first is to emphasise how far punk reached beyond the time (the late 70s) and place (England) of its origins among the live clips here are UK Subs performing in Los Angeles in 1984 and the eternally risible Sham 69 to a bizarrely enthusiastic crowd in Japan as late as 1991. The second, almost certainly unintentional, purpose served by Punk & Disorderlyis an overdue de-romanticising of punk,... accomplished by the simple expedient of demonstrating how many wholly worthless groups the movement produced. It is difficult to believe that anyone bar the band members and their children will derive much joy from the ill-shot, badly-recorded caperings of such rank nonentities as The Business, Vice Squad, One Way System and Chaos UK. Nor are more established names in the punk pantheon, such as Chelsea, The Lurkers and The Exploited, done many favours by their contributions. In the deplorable absence of anything by The Sex Pistols or The Clash, it is left to The Buzzcocks, with a spirited slap at their immortal "Ever Fallen in Love (With Someone You Shouldn¹t Have)" to argue the case that punk rock in general, and this DVD in particular, are not a complete waste of everyone's time. --Andrew Mueller [show more]
