"These rock videos are immoral, indecent, profane, scurrilous, and blasphemous!"

Long time no update, and with not much going on in the world of punk rock, I figured I 'd do another entry that relies on youtube videos again. This time, instead of live performances, you'll get music videos. I won't bore you with shit you've all ready seen (though honestly how many punk videos have you seen?), so here are five videos you probably never even knew existed. And by the way for those wondering, the title of this post comes from the Beavis and Butthead episode "Right On".

Mr. T Experience- And I Will Be With You

I doubt this ever got airplay but it's a damn good video (and a damn good song for that matter). I'm surprised by how proffesional looking this one is, it's got nice cinematography and lighting, as well as a number of different sets, and animated segments. This is the sort of video you'd expect to see from a bigger band like Blink-182 or Green Day, but MTX? Kudos to them.

Green Jelly- Anarchy In Bedrock

Remember Green Jelly, the band who became semi-famous in the early 90's for their song "Three Little Pigs"? Three Little Pigs was part of the album "Cereal Killer", which was later released on VHS with a music video for everytrack. This brings us to Anarchy In Bedrock, a Flintstones/Sex Pistols hybrid that was included on Cereal Killer. It could very well be the goofiest video you've ever seen.

On a second note, heres a funny story that segways into the next video: In 1984 Green Jelly opened for The Ramones, and the band (who as the opening act had their equipment set up in front of the Ramones' gear) were pelted by the audience with the usual Jell-O, whipped cream and pudding (as was custom with their fans). Years later in an interview with New York Rocker magazine, Joey Ramone singled out Green Jellö as the worst (and messiest) band to ever open for the Ramones.

Ramones- I Don't Want To Grow Up

Here's the Ramones, as promised, with what I believe is the last music video they ever made. This one combineslive action with animation, that looks similar to the animation of the Adult Swim show "Mission Hill" (not sure if it was done by the same guy). This is probably my favorite Ramones song, and for a long time I thought it was an original, but some time last year I learned it was a cover of a Tom Waits song. You can watch Waits' much different sounding original version here.


Riptides- Change Gonna Come

Wow the Riptides make videos? This is one I'm almost positive you've never seen. Sure you can tell this is low budget, but it looks the same quality as something you could see playing on one of those "underground rock" shows on MTV or Fuse. Congrats on them for making this.

Ministry- N.W.O.

They're not really a punk band (though they did form Lard with Jello Biafra), I'm including Ministry's N.W.O. because members of Screeching Weasel can be found as extras in this video, plus it's a good song. If anyone can find the time of the Weasel cameos in this, leave a comment in this post, because with the low quality of this video I could not.
