But I also think the comparison can be made perfectly well; in fact, I'm the first to say that punk, compared to the rest, is a silly genre with little substance, adolescent and without artistic purpose, a worthwhile outlet for musicians who are eager to express themselves; too bad they don't know how to do it through music. (I might be exaggerating a bit, but since this is a site that is full of punkers, it’s nice to stir the pot. Anyway, punk is the first step of musical evolution, in the sense that it sits beneath all the others.)

Then, my point is not that you can't compare on a level of taste, but I was just explaining what criteria a record must meet to make me dislike it, criteria that can be found in California punk, power metal, California rap, and other scattered groups. Criteria that are not applicable to an entire genre but only to certain currents; for example, I listen to Black Flag but not Husker Du, long live Cathedral and let’s burn DIO, God bless Company Flow and lightning Snoop Doggy Dog. Despite being paired Punk-Metal-Rap, there are differences that lead me to buy the former and vomit on the latter. Let's say it's an "incomparable level of quality" rather than a technical one. The discourse on films is complex since a movie always has the same setting: me sitting watching TV, so it’s easier to give a rating. With music, though, I put on Fu Manchu at 4 AM as a lullaby and I hate it, but I play them in the morning on my way to work and I’m headbanging for two kilometers; it all depends on the moment. If I had to rate A Kind Of Blue played at a summer beach party, I’d give it 0/5, but that doesn’t mean it's a 0/5 album; it just doesn't fit a beach party at all. Instead, California punk or even 90% of punk bands never fit in; they lack that something which other genres have. It’s just a compression of many things that you find "better explained" elsewhere.

Well, I certainly don't know Zen Arcade by heart, with a slightly cheerful anger I messed up the intensifying adjective, it was better "desperate little fury" :D, the point is that they aren't thoughtful enough to be listened to when I want something thoughtful, nor that furious when I want fury and so on, as I said before, they don't have a why. There are so many records to discover that one lifetime won't be enough, I see Husker as a wasted time.

Ehhhhh come on Ajeje...Deadly Fury? I hear Happy Furietta, let's say they were a bunch of cheeky little rascals. DEADLY FURY makes me think of old school Thrash Metal or some kind of smack like Venomous Concept, but I don't really feel all this deadly fury in Du, for example even Zeke are a lot more Furious than Du (and they have a better sound).

Well, but Fugazi & CCCP are not Californians, I clearly specified what kind of punk I meant. I am in favor of sub-sub-subclassifications; I use them and endorse them. Helloween has nothing to do with Son Of Otis because metal doesn't exist, only power and doom, and the Velvet Underground has nothing to do with Deep Purple, so there's Alt & Hard Rock and not just rock, plain and simple... And just like Fugazi has nothing to do with the Dead Kennedys, there's pathetic Californian punk and HC punk where someone salvable participates. Oh, salvable, eh? Let's not exaggerate; the Californian genre is the worst on earth (better I listen to pop), but even that punkpunk is no joke. And the Dead Kennedys are a ridiculous band from every point of view; California Uber Alles, yes, for the babes on the surf table, though.

It's not that I don't like the Minutemen, it's just that "why listen to the Minutemen when you can listen to Naked City doing the same thing but MUCH BETTER?". Well, Zorn is all over the Minutemen, sure they're better than millions of bands, but I find my reason for them. As for Husker Du, I don't like the sound; it's just ugly in itself, it doesn't grab me, poorly done and half-hearted, or maybe they liked it low and poorly defined, but the fact remains that it sucks for me. Of course, they're also one of the greatest bands in their genre, but like a good compact car, even if it's good, it's still just a compact car. For me, punk is teenage stuff, like power metal and brutal gore.

Black Flag are definitely cool, Husker Du not so much but not unworthy of a listen, Refused are awesome, Minutemen don't really have a clear purpose, Bad Religion I can't stand... just like Dead Kennedys and all the California punk except Zeke :D

Like Brutal-Gore albums, ugly on the outside but tender on the inside.
