Straight Edge Playlist
Few would term Mags and me as overly temperate. That said, we both have great love and respect for our straight edge brothers and sisters. This respect lead me to proposition walking musical encyclopedia and all around solid dude Rob Moran for 20 of the best straight edge songs of all time. His introduction and playlist are below.
Here is the list of what I think are the best songs by various SxE bands. Now granted, I think about 5% of the people associated with these songs are probably still SxE, but who gives a shit…these are great fucking songs, they meant something to me then and they still do now. By no means is this any sort of definitive list, but rather a list of songs that stuck with me over the years.
Rob Moran
- Inside Out – No Spiritual Surrender
- Minor Threat – Minor Threat
- Side by Side – Backfire
- Undertow – Cutting Away
- Turning Point – Broken
- 7 Seconds – This is the Angry
- Drift Again – Drag
- Uniform Choice – No Thanks
- Judge – Fed Up
- Gorilla Biscuits – New Direction
- SS Decontrol – Get it Away
- Slapshot – Fire Walker
- Unity – Straight on View
- Chain of Strength – Just How Much
- Judge – Warriors (Blitz Cover)
- Four Walls Falling – Happy Face
- Brotherhood – The Deal
- Integrity – Harder They Fall
- Bane – Can We Start Again
- Dag Nasty – Values Here
Since Rob included Judge twice (not that we are complaining) and is such a modest chap this is my nominee for #20.
Unbroken – You Won’t be Back
– Captain of Games

To be fair, I did have Justice League’s “one More Time”, but since it’s crucialness only resides on vinyl that I know of, you couldn’t link it…now that being said your pick of that awful song shows what a mean spirited punk you are ❤

I know why so many people dislike this band but this is such a good song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOyIiFlnadM (N.I.V / CEB)
