Talk:The Exploited

message: i agree with the biased and fishy remark.  the part about inarticulate politics is correct, but i think the suggestion that they are pro-fascist is wrong.  (hitler's in the charts, i think, is pretty clearly against the rise of neo-nazi punk rock.)  
britannia waives the rules isn't an exploited album, it's a compilation album (and a good one).
whooa.... this article is biased and fishy...
 yeah this page isnt acurate its wrong they had way more albums than that
This article is way too based on the writer's opinions. Someone needs to revise it with all of their albums mentioned. TearAwayTheFunerealDress 14:30, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

text: Not pissed off. Just encouraging you to add the albums. I wrote some of the article, and I included the albums I knew. I stopped listening to them after The Massacre, which I thought was a disappointing album. I know Live at the Whitehouse and War Now are missing (the former being a live album isn't as important as the others, but could still be listed, and War Now is an EP, and I forget what year it was ('86?)). I wasn't even sure they were still around, really, but I guess as long as Wattie has a voice he'll find three guys to back him up. Anyway, it's a wiki, so you can change whatever you want. Just keep it neutral/balanced, don't gush about how great the band is, and make sure your information is verifiable and not overly trivial. Alter away. -R. fiend 15:38, 21 October 2005 (UTC)

message: There are several factual inaccuracies and substantial bits of info missing. For example, the original guitarist 'Big John' is not cited at all - he was a major influence. The Exploited were at the hub of the second wave of punk in the UK and were prominent and possibly the most successful band of that time. When I get the chance i will dig out my original copy of 'Punks Not Dead' (I'm the one giving the 'v' sign on the cover picture and update this.
They also charted in the UK charts in ?1981 and did Top of the Pops! Big John later left as Wattie was doing too much glue and eventually heroin. The group also got into some odd noteriety by hanging out with Jimmy Boyle a famous Scottish gang member and violent criminal, who had reformed and became an artist.
Big John went on to be in other groups after leaving The Exploited (according to the official Exploited website he was briefly in Nirvana (think he was second guitarist around the time of recording of the Unplugged album, but Pat Smear appeared live instead and JD was gtr tech) and also I think he may have been involved with Garbage (not Garbage, but was gtr in Shirley Manson's previous band Goodbye Mr Mackenzie, and before this THE BLOOD UNCLES).
**************************************
What about "Jesus is dead EP(1986)" this a very important EP, because is not "Single" like "War Now(1988)", this EP don't have any remix ("War Now" have remix version of "Sexual Favours").
Also Exploited was a great influence to the "Trash Metal" music, as you know, "Trash Metal" is a consequence of make a "crossover" of heavy metal and punk

so everyone agrees that The Exploited were a racist band? What the F*** is up with that? What kind of white power bonehead s*** like them?
I don't see how this can be true. Just becuase a  track has Hitler's name in it, doesn't make it a racist song.  
And why are they a seminal rock band? What does seminal mean?
:Seminal means incredibly important in the creation of ____. Similar root as semen (no, I'm not joking or trying to be obscene, that is a good way to remember it). It usually refers to art or literature. Examples: The Sex Pistols were a seminal punk rock band. Nirvana was a seminal grunge band. Huckleberry Finn was a seminal piece of American literature, etc. The Ungovernable Force 01:25, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Genre 

message: It doesn't matter whether you are into Jazz, Blues, Metal, Techno, Handel or Smetana - there's good music and bad music. You have to admit, whatever walk of life you are from, that the Exploited make damn good music. I don't know anyone who lived in the UK when I was there who hasn't heard of them. They are an elemental force in the world of music, and much loved in Britain. It's great to hear they are still going strong.    —83.208.165.249 (talk) 20:19, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

replies: text: For the nth time: sign your posts, read your talk page, read the warnings, read the comments on article talk pages where you also posted, learn how to ref and learn what sites are proper sources (this fansite you came up with isn't one and the Exploited page doesn't mention Oi!).

message: They are Oi!. DO NOT REMOVE IT FROM THE GENRE LISTING! I HAVE ALREADY PUT A SOURCE CITATION FOR IT AND A CONSENSUS FOR IT HAS FINALLY BEEN REACHED! IF YOU REMOVE IT EVENTUALLY IT WILL BE BACK THERE!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheMetallican (talk • 5:52, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Please provide evidence of this consensus being reached. Furthermore, your declaration of it "eventually being back there" smacks of edit warring, and does not help your case. – Richard BB 22:12, 3 June 2012 (UTC)

message: Should there be something said here about the band trademark Mohican style that did distinguish them from the first generation punk bands? Being a 1980 Punk (rocker) putting up my Mohican made all the difference! I also have the idea Punk became more and more synonymous to the hardcore scene while before 1980 punk music contained a much wider range of styles and influences.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.67.142.245 (talk) 21:18, 19 February 2014 (UTC)
