Scottanimo Bay:TOP 5 Jacksonville punk Albums of the 2000's

So it doesnt  matter if you care or not but southernshedpunk.com has decided to post it anyways. Beware !!!what lurks below comes from what some high horse big time punk record label fest guidebooks call a DOOMED CITY.  Yes there are bands from Jacksonville and yes we are gonna post about them. SO HERE WE GOOOOOOOOOOOO

5. GRABBAG VS TRUCKASAURUS                       Shed Split CD

This was the pinnacle of the original shed punk scene.  6 songs from each band at the height of their relevance in the early 2000’s. This split defined a generation of young Jacksonville bands to come. Influencing through disgrace these 2 bands showed that you didnt have to sell out and be a douche in Jacksonville to lead an awesome drug fueled life. You just had to not give a fuck and talk a lot of shit and own a few instruments.

4. GRABBAG                   NEVER CHEESIN ALWAYS FLEXIN

Recorded over a single weekend, inside a bathroom stall with a 4 track. This was  irrelevant Jacksonville post pop punk insanity at its best. Always weird, sometimes political and strangely sexual. GRABBAG delivered hard with this 13 song cassette in 2001 and have regretted it ever since. Originally pressed ass 50 tapes for  a weed dealers birthday party. Some how die-hard fans have kept this polished turd a float in the toilet bowl of Florida southern shed punk music and I guess it’s not half bad.

3. WHOREMOAN RIOT          SMOSHED EP

All Girl, all balls to the wall jax thrash street punk.  5 songs that come fast and correct with a comedic edge that has you begging for more.  This EP will make you rip out your Girlfriends tampon with your teeth and spit it on the floor of the pit. (http://www.myspace.com/whoremoanriot)

2.     9/10’s                      SMASH HITS

NO OTHER BAND. SOUNDS LIKE THIS BAND!!!! One of the most original  sounds in the city or any city for that matter. I dont even know if the chords Mitch plays are real! But they sound like Skater Ska punk goodness if i’ve ever heard it. They have politically charged lyrics and circle pit inducing bass lines and drum beats. They are legends in all of DUVAL’s hearts and i cant wait till their new release. (http://www.myspace.com/ninetenths)

1. DEAD MANS WALTZ/ THE 2416       I forgot what it was called but the first CD they came out with.

Hands down the best band to come out of the whole 2006-2009 DOOZERS Experiment.  Innovative post-post-post punk insanity, that melts your mind and your inhibitions. These fuckers are fucking rockers!  Vintage Futuristic stoner mind punk. This band owns Jacksonville and if you let them. They will own your hearts and your ears.  (www.the2416.com)
