Are you a little tired of the pausterized sound that rock and roll, including what you call current pop punk, that the industry has provided? Do you miss something more visceral, somewhat sarcastic and that really represents the roots of a style created over 50 years ago?
Degenerates of Punk rescues essence of live punk show in new album
Are you a little tired of the pausterized sound that rock and roll, including what you call current pop punk, that the industry has provided? Do you miss something more visceral, somewhat sarcastic and that really represents the roots of a style created over 50 years ago?
Well, here's Degenerates of Punk, an American group that delivers the essence of punk rock, without making it sound dated and even adding light doses of irreverence to their sound. They have just released a live album, where the rough, the rustic join melody and simple chords, with a lot of energy.
This is “DCxPC Live Vol. 13 Presents Degenerates of Punk Live at Lou's", recorded live at Ralph's Rock Diner. In it twelve tracks are distilled in the most aggressive and relaxed way, where the punk inspired by Ramones, Buzzcocks, Sex Pistols, with light current touches is distilled without parsimony.
The coolest thing is that the record was captured in the most faithful way possible, describing the show within reality, with its dirty guitars, straight kitchen and stripped vocals. An oasis amid so much prefab stuff!

Degenerates of Punk (DOP) of New England, were founded in 2019 by Jimmy West and Bill Huther. Sparrow Cat was next to join the group at bass and Paulie Paradox on drums shortly thereafter. Jimmy and Sparrow are the remaining founding members now joined by Adam APE and Bobby Forand splitting drum duties.
The band’s gang vocal melodies have an East Coast vibe that makes me think of bands like Rancid while at the same time are so catchy it reminds me of Skate Punk tendencies of bands like Pennywise. The band also cites Screeching Weasel as a direct influence, and I think a lot of that comes through in their writing as well.
Degenerates of Punk are active members of the New England punk scene and maintain working relationships with other bands that they refer to as “a large extended family.” Calling out specifically “sibling” bands such as The Frenzy of Tongs, Jimmy West Band, The McGunks, Pint Killers, and The Somethin’ Somethings. And just like my wacky family, there are too many cousins to account for! Another cool notch on DOP’s belt is that they were nominated for Motif Magazine’s 2022 Breakthrough Act last year.
As with every DCxPC release all pre-orders within the first week are entered into a raffle to win a VML Live Album!
The record in an energetic 12-song set played by the band that kicks your butt start to finish. From old school rocking vibes like the opener “Tommy and Geo” to pop punk and surf punk sentiments in “This Time Alone” to the anthemic “whoas” in Same Old Songs,” I can picture pogoing and slam dancing throughout the night at a DOP show.

Jimmy West -Vocals, Guitar
Sparrow Cat – Bass,Vocals
Bobby Forand – Drums,Vocals

Edgar Allan Poets Reviews DCxPC Live Vol. 13 Degenerates of Punk Live
“This band plays well, the rhythm is fast and chaotic, the guitars are slightly out of tune and the singer’s voice makes you understand that gallons of alcohol have passed through that throat.”
Rock Era Magazine Reviews DCxPC Live Vol. 13 Degenerates of Punk Live 12”
Calling their sound Ramones-core pop punk, Degenerates of Punk’s life shows are quite simply a blast. Infectious, hectic, and energetic, their breakneck-paced cuts are short and rapid, organic and heartfelt too. The drums are powerful and the yelled vocals are charismatic.

The DCxPC live community has been firing on all cylinders for a while now. Since their inception around the time of the pandemic, when live performances started facing strict restrictions, and most of them had to be moved to confined environments and live streams of controlled shows, DCxPC took it upon their shoulders to record those streams and then publish them as live vinyl records with covers that pay homage to VMLive album covers of the 1990s. Today we bring you yet another live show and yet another DCxPC release of Degenerates of Punk live from Ralph’s Rock Diner.
Calling their sound Ramones-core pop punk, Degenerates of Punk’s life shows are quite simply a blast. Infectious, hectic, and energetic, their breakneck-paced cuts are short and rapid, organic and heartfelt too. The drums are powerful and the yelled vocals are charismatic. Perhaps the live recording sound leaves a little to be desired on this particular cut from DCxPC, but there can be no denying that the stellar performances left the crowd rowdy and quite hyped, as we can clearly hear after each song.
This Degenerates of Punk DCxPC release is a noble effort to catch the lightning of pandemic-era live shows in many, neatly-designed bottles. The recordings successfully translate the energy and intentions behind those performances quite well, if they translate the sound slightly less so. This vinyl is a quirky novelty that will be quite precious for collectors of quirky and limited punk recordings.
