Guttermouth:
       Vamos a empezar a descubrir el mundo de esta compañía discografica (NITRO RECORDS), con a mi entender, uno de los grupos de PUNK, con más chispa, e ingenio del mercado americano. Tocan una mezcla de HardCore y Punk, a ritmo bastante rápido,  cuyo único pero, es que la voz del cantante (Mark Adkins), no se como decirlo, no es muy comercial, es decir, no concuerda perfectamente con el grupo en general, ya que es mu ronca. Continuaremos con unas pedacho de fotos que he ido capturando con el tiempo, mientras navegaba por la red (www), ......bueno, como decía, he aquí unas fotos relacionadas con el grupo GUTTERMOUTH.

AFI:
 
       A.F.I. es una de las bandas de hardCore-punk que más me gustan. Son de Berkeley ( California ), y se podría decir ( tras escuchar sus tres discos ) que la música que hacen es un punk muy cañero, con bastantes toques de HardCore, cuyo resultado o definición vendría a ser que su música es del estilo del punk de los 80.
       Sus canciones son como legados de rabia contra todo lo refente al sistema. Pese a no tener la fama de otras bandas de punk USA, la gente entendida del tema les reconoce todo su potencial y trabajo.
         Si deseas saber su auténtica historia, y cómo empezaron a hacer sus pinitos en la música, hasta la fecha de hoy, en la que han conseguido tener un público fiel que gusta de su trabajo, no tienes más que clicar en el siguiente enlace. Aquí podrás ver la historia del grupo en inglés.
       Bueno, como siempre hago en estos casos, ahora te daré la posibilidad de poder ver una serie de fotos relacionadas con el grupo.

    The Offspring:

    AMG REVIEW: The Offspring's second album for Epitaph did the impossible: it landed in the Top Five, unheard of for independent records. The Offspring crossed over due to the raucous, Eastern-tinged single "Come out and Play (Keep 'Em Separated)," which stopped and started just like Nirvana, only without the Seattle trio's recklessness. The record stayed in the charts because The Offspring sounded relentlessly heavy, no matter how much the band claimed to be punk. Their tempos are slower than traditional hardcore, and their attack is as heavy as Metallica. But they acted like they were punk, with odes to no "Self Esteem" and singing about fighting in school. Nothing on the album matches the incessant catchiness of the singles, but Smash is a solid record, filled with enough heavy riffs to keep most teenagers happy. -- Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All-Music Guide

    -----------------------------------------------------------
    Offspring's metal-inflected punk became a popular sensation in the 1994, selling over a four million copies on an independent record label. While the group's credentials and approach follows the indie-rock tradition of the '80s, sonically they sound more like an edgy, hard-driving heavy metal band, with their precise, pulsing power chords and Dexter Holland's flat vocals.
    Featuring Holland, guitarist Kevin "Noodles" Wasserman, bassist Greg Kriesel, and drummer Ron Welty, the Offspring released their first album, Ignition, in 1993. It was an underground hit, setting the stage for the across-the-board success of 1994's Smash. The Nirvana-soundalike "Come out and Play," the first single from the album, became an MTV hit in the summer of 1994, which paved the way to radio success. The band was played on both alternative and album rock stations, confirming their broad-based appeal. "Self Esteem," the second single, followed the same soft verse/loud chorus fomula and stayed on the charts nearly twice as long as "Come out and Play." The group got offers from major labels, yet they chose to stay with Epitaph. While they were able to play arenas in the U.S., their success didn't translate in foreign countries. Nevertheless, the band's popularity continued to grow in America, as "Gotta Get Away" became another radio/MTV hit in the beginning of 1995. The Offspring recorded a version of the Damned's "Smash It Up" for the Batman Forever soundtrack in the summer of that year; it kept the band on the charts as they worked on their third album.

    Following a prolonged bidding war and much soul-searching, the Offspring decided to leave Epitaph Records in 1996 for Columbia Records. The move was particularly controversial within the punk community, and many artists on the Epitaph roster, including Pennywise and owner Brett Gurewitz, criticized the band. After much delay, the Offspring finally released their Columbia debut, Ixnay on the Hombre, in February of 1997. Expectation for the record was high and it did receive good reviews, but Ixnay on the Hombre failed to become a crossover hit on the level of Smash, and the group also lost a significant portion of their hardcore punk audience, due to the album's major-label status. -- Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All-Music Guide
    -----------------------------------------------------
    AMG REVIEW: The Offspring's self-titled debut album is a rawer, harder-edged collection than their breakthrough set Smash, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's a better record. Although it makes a more convincing argument for the band's punk credibility -- the record lacks the metal guitar crunch that dominated Smash -- The Offspring doesn't have any songs driven by hooks as catchy as "Keep 'Em Separated" or "Self Esteem.," nor does it have the consistency of Smash. A handful of tracks make a lasting impression, but most of The Offspring is notable for its surface style, not its substance. -- Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All-Music Guide
     
    ----------------------------------------------------
    AMG REVIEW: The Offspring may have been a product of the Southern California hardcore scene, but their instincts have always been more metal than punk. Their guitars plod along with a heavy backbeat, and even their speedier numbers are weighed down by clumsy riffs, which is evident on Ixnay on the Hombre, the follow-up to the group's unexpected hit Smash. Despite Jello Biafra's opening assertation of the Offspring's punk credentials, Ixnay on the Hombre sounds like a competent hard-rock band trying to hitch themselves to the post-grunge bandwagon. The riffs don't have hooks, and Dexter Holland yelps his vocals tunelessly. Of course, much hardcore followed this formula, but it got by on its self-rightousness and visceral forward force. Since Offspring slows down the tempo of hardcore, it doesn't have either the undiluted rage of hardcore, or the four-on-the-floor groove of hard rock. Also, they haven't come up with a ridiculous hook on the level of "Come Out and Play (Keep 'Em Separated)" or "Self Esteem," which leaves Ixnay on the Hombre as a tedious, turgid mess of anemic punk-metal. -- Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All-Music Guide
