When I hear social distortion but people always shorten it. Social D. Social D.

Let's just get some social D going on here. What constitutes a social D? A social D's gotta be a D that everyone is taking part in. Social DIC.

So I should take my pants off or what the fuck are we talking about? Yeah, also it is like lazy ass fans. I can't say distortion. It's not that hard of a word to say.

Social D would be a really good band name for up and that was trying to get orgies happening at their concert. Some of the show enjoy the social D. Yeah, I don't know. I don't get it. You don't call it Led Zepp.

Led Zepp. You don't say that. The other day someone was talking about Jimmy E. World and they initialized it.

Yeah, just like yeah, just all caps. Jew. And they were talking about cover bands. So they said some Jew cover band. Well, it's just like and that's why you always gotta think about the first letter of every word in your band name. That's crazy.

Your views of society are distorted socially distorted. You have been distorted in a social fashion. You think this band is a punk band? Yeah, I don't know.

I look some stuff up for most of the episodes that we do and I kept saying the word punk. I did not expect to see that word when I did this episode. I do not think of social distortion as a punk band. Do you?

No, but I just don't think I guess in my head of what I envision punk to be social D is not punk at all.

Unless punk is just a term that we're gonna use now for it's bad. Yeah, you're just throwing it out there.

If it sounds bad, it must be punk. Then okay, I agree. This sounds very bad. Yeah, this has got really shitty sounding everything. Oh, it's punk, dude. It's punk.

Is it just the vocals? Like if the singer can't sing, it's gotta be punk. It's punk. It's just punk. You don't get it. The song structure sucks. Everything about it sucks. They don't write original songs. It's punk.

This guy uses a fucking capo on his guitar in a punk band. I mean normally I don't allow myself to even enter into a conversation about that band's not punk because they do this or they do that. But I'm sorry. If you put a capo on your guitar at any point,

you're not a fucking punk rock band that kind of goes against everything. You should even give a fuck what key you're in at all. I was gonna say in my head, I'm like punk. You shouldn't have a tuner. Like you should have nothing. Your guitar should be plugged directly into the amp and that's it. There should be nothing else. Yeah, you shouldn't be like the edge with a fucking bunch of pedals. Nothing is allowed in punk. It's just fucking dirty guitar. This isn't an episode where I even gave a fuck enough to look up the history or how it all came together.

Every episode of this almost not everyone almost everyone you accused me of not doing any homework. Yeah, and this is one of those episodes I literally did not. I didn't even look at their Wikipedia page, which is normally something that's so obvious to do. I didn't even do it.

I don't feel like this band deserves that level of respect. Honestly, if we decide we're gonna take a band down, there is a level of respect that goes into that. You know, know your adversary, social distortion.

I don't feel like I even need to know anything about them to just sit down and talk shit on this because they don't matter. Here's all of it. All of it wrapped into one sentence. This is what would happen if Bruce Springsteen was from California. That's what he said. I said that. Oh, you said that. Yeah, I thought that's not a quote that I found. You actually made that up. Yeah, okay, we'll go on. I have thoughts. I don't understand. You have original thought. If Bruce Springsteen was from California, it would be social distortion and it would look like this. Suda working class. Yeah.

You know, just fucking guitars real. It's so real, man. I just like it because it's real. You know, genuinely social distortion is so bad that when friends have told me that it's their favorite band. I actually think that they're joking. One of my friends said social distortion was one of his favorite bands. Name them. First and last name on the podcast right now. I will not do that. I can't do that. I legitimately thought he was joking because they came to town. I can't wait to go see social D and I was like, are you're being serious?

I didn't even know anybody liked the band. They have a big following. They're a very popular band. I could see tolerating social distortion because it really is just a nothingness. It's like the sound that your computer fan makes at night. You get used to sleeping with it on and that's okay. But saying it your favorite band is unacceptable. Yeah, it is one of those things where if somebody says this is my favorite band or one of my favorite bands, I definitely give it more credence. Maybe I was wrong. Dude, I do all the freaking time. And this is

absolutely one of those times where I was like, no, no, I'm not wrong. This is just bad. This is just not good music. I'll go ahead and tell you I didn't listen to a single social distortion song for this episode. I didn't make it through an entire song. I can't stand his voice. The reason I didn't listen to a single social distortion song is because I've heard a social distortion song in my life. Therefore I've heard every social distortion song. Every song sounds exactly the fucking same. Yeah. I know that I know what I'm saying.

One social distortion original, but everything else I know of them is just a cover, which is what half of the songs that people know and like. Mike Ness has done at least one album, they all but one song on it are a cover. How is that different from the me first in the Gimmi Gimmi's concept? It's not different. It's the exact same thing actually. I guess some people may not even know who that is. Me first in the Gimmi Gimmi's, go ahead. You do it. I talk more than you do. No, I'm listening to you. They're a punk band.

When if you ever had lime wire, you spent days of your life waiting for me first in the Gimmi Gimmi's covers of other songs to download. They're the punk band who did the Phantom of the Opera. Right. Which is awesome. It's fun and funny. They're competent musicians. Social distortion is not even...
