[kj] (OT) Derf Scratch (Fear) RIP

[folk devil]

Possibly because I'm not from 'this' side of the pond, let alone the West Coast.  I think I enjoyed about 3 Dead Kennedys tracks.
As for the earlier New York 'scene', Richard Hell, (some) Dead Boys (not strictly NYC, I know) and that's about it. As I said, it's cultural. I didn't relate to it, I guess. 
Someone mentioned a band being the US's Buzzcocks; maybe that's another factor, it was 3 or 4 years after the fact for me...I'd started to listen to bands like Killing Joke more. :)

How can you not like the LA punk scene? The LA punk scene was 
awesome!  So many great bands came up with so many different sounds.

I never really enjoyed the 2nd wave punk 
  thing, nor the LA punk scene...the latter was probably just cultural, the 
  former because 99% of it was just performing monkeys.
