Nevermind the blog title! Haha! Im referring to the Pop Punk/Ramonescore Band, which im into lately. I dont know why i forgot to include them in my Top 10 Ramonescore Bands. Parasites are one of the longest running Pop Punk bands which started back in 1985. I really love the way they play and also they have cool and nice lyrics in their songs.
Ramonescore often characterized as "Ramones-Style" Punk Rock. It has been my favorite for the past years and my Band also plays this kind of genre. With hundreds of Ramonescore bands,records,and songs its really hard to narrow itdown because i love listening to almost all of them, But still there are a few bands i keep listening to and which i consider as my "Favorites".

time
Sorry Sorry baby you gotta wait for me

*Repeat chorus*

When I arrive in the restaurant your’e already gone
A Group formed under the influence of THE RAMONES. This was supposed to be a side project but since we are punk rockers we started to form a band. We started playing in the year 2008, We had our first gig in A Call To Arms 4. We've broken up numerous times with numerous line-up changes, but here we are back to play awesome punk rock music.
Because of its fast, hard-edged music, stripped-down instrumentation , short songs/lyrics and its uniqueness, i started to love and had a really strong interest about punk rock.When i was in my 1st year in highschool, My friend introduced me to this kind of music genre, he made me listen the pioneers of punk rock like The Ramones and The Clash and the Sex Pistols. My other friends also introduced me to bands which has a Ramones-Style in their music also called "Ramonescore". Some Examples of "Ramonescore" bands are The Huntingtons , The Queers , Screeching Weasel , Chixdiggit , Teenage Bottlerocket , Retarded and Sloppy Seconds.
"Punk" became a part of me and of
my life. I was introduced to a new world, a really awesome one. It
became my inspiration and it greatly influenced me.
"“Punk is: the personal expression of uniqueness that comes from the
experiences of growing up in touch with our human ability to reason and
ask questions; a movement that serves to refute social attitudes that
have been perpetuated through willful ignorance of human nature; a
process of questioning and commitment to understanding that results in
self-progress, and through repetition, flowers into social evolution; a
belief that this world is what we make of it, truth comes from our
understanding of the way things are, not from the blind adherence to
prescriptions about the way things should be; the constant struggle
against fear of social repercussions.” -Greg Graffin (Bad Religion)
