How to Go From Being a One Direction Fan to Listening to Black Flag in Eight Bands

#OneDirection #BlackFlag #Punk

Everyone needs a musical gateway to take you from the radio to the underground. Maybe you weren’t fortunate enough to have a cool older brother who passed down his Circle Jerks LPs when you were 14. No–you had to play the long game. Starting with top 40 and digging deeper and deeper into obscurity, one band at a time.

This is an eight step progression—logically guiding you from the poppiest of pop music to pure and primal punk. If One Direction were the first band to speak to you in an interesting and invigorating way, and rocking out to “Best Song Ever” is your idea of a fun Friday night—that’s awesome. But if you’re longing for more aggression and want to initiate yourself into punk rock and hardcore, and you just don’t know where to start—we’ve got you covered. We’ll get you from Harry Styles to Henry Rollins in just eight bands.
