HARDCORE FOR THE PUNX COVERS

Oh shit, 4 posts in 4 days in a row, what the fuck is happening? All of these covers compilations got me thinking about covers that were played by some of the bands where I´ve played. So here is the list of covers played by some of my bands. I didn´t include every single band or project where I´ve played but only few bands that I think are worth mentioning. Also, I didn´t include Fx Px Ox here, because I´ve only played with them for a very short time and during that time we didn´t play any covers if I remember right. But Fx Px Ox played and recorded a bunch of covers. Oh yeah, I also performed live few times some covers as a guest with some other bands which was always fun. So, here it goes!

THEYSUCK! (1998. – 2007.)

The thing with Theysuck! is that for the first few years, the band was consisted of only two members who liked to play hc/punk inspired by early 80´s and to record bunch of songs on tape recorder without intention of playing live. Theysuck! started to play regulary live shows in last few years of the bands existence. So, lots of the covers we did, were never played live but they were all recorded on rehearsals and some of those rehearsals were released on tapes. Maybe there were even some more covers than those listed but these are the ones I remember.
