    So... An intro.... I am Peter, first got into punk in 1986 although some bands with hits on the radio did groom me for punkdom, bands like the Jam (I know, technically mod), The Clash, Adam and the Ants, and more.
    I received my nickname, Peter Punk, during those early days and it just stuck.
    I spent the next 13 years maintaining my mohawk and jacket, but since I lived in the middle of nowhere at the time, I had little access to gigs or even records so my musical knowledge was rather stagnant and my collection small.
    I did, on occasion, manage to find my way to civilization where I would hang out in a squat cafe, and perhaps see a local band or two, but those times were few and far between.

    By the time I got my hands on an Internet account, I had gotten quite discouraged and melancholic and had gotten into 80's new wave and darkwave and through that, I got into Goth.

    Fast forward another 10 years or so and the orange clown had taken office, white supremacy had soared in popularity and everything I stood for was being vilified and I was more or less forced back to punk, not that I was trying to fight that though. And although I may no longer look the part, my entire being is pushing back to everything that I consider wrong.

    I have discovered a few things now that I could not learn during my early days, and that is that I definitely enjoy D-beat, and to an extent also Crust. Street punk, punk rock, and Oi! are great too. I do NOT seem to enjoy ANY cowpunk, surfpunk, pop punk, ska punk, and so forth. I need my shit raw, in your face and uncompromising.

    So, if you have any questions then let me know, I don't know the meaning of TMI nor do I have any real secrets. There's only stuff that I have not mentioned yet.

    Forgot to mention, my profile pic is me in 1988.
