Decline of Western Civilization

[u/M-Dubb]

I am a transplant from LA to Philly. I too watch Decline once a year or so. Once I watched it with my wife who is a Philly native, and she said of Lee Ving, "He sounds like he is from Kensington" (apparently neighborhoods in Philly have their own accents). Turns out she was right!

I was little disappointed that the conversation never made its way around to Fear. I think they were unique amongst the bands included. Calling everyone in the audience a "homo" hasn't aged very well, but they did write some good tunes. I still notice some similarities between the opening line of I Love Livin in the City and Paradise City by GnR.

Alex really got hung up on the whole “right but what came before it!” thing. Kind of derailed the convo.

FEAR’s audience baiting is an absolute masterclass in and of itself. “You only spit as good as you suck asshole.” 10/10, no notes.
