#TheWipers are probably the greatest band of all time.

Superlatives and generalizations are undoubtedly difficult, but it's Saturday and I woke up with #TheWipers on my mind. There may be more popular #punk #bands, but they are one of the greatest, if not the greatest! For me. #YouthofAmerica !!! #music #alternative m.youtube.com/watch?v=YaUz...

Hey book / library nerds (complimentary) of a certain age (in elementary school in the mid-80s). Did you also watch Tomes & Talismans series in school?

It's funny to me that the bad-guys were called #TheWipers. As a teen when I found out about the band of the same name, I assumed that's where they got it, but the band is older than the series. Is it possible that an educational video series creator used a name from a Portland punk band?

Going to see #Bratmobile tonight (as a pre-birthday treat), and, whoops, I’m wearing a #TheWipers shirt. 🙃

When it‘s over! Rhetorical question: Is there a bigger #punk band than #TheWipers? Timeless - they often blow me away. #music #punlrock #alternative #rock #banger #Wipers youtu.be/tUm_FeB0KlQ?...

WIPERS AND GREG SAGE
The Best Of Wipers And Greg Sage
1990 U.S. pressing

What a score today!
A great collection of everything you’d want from The Wipers!

“Better Off Dead” is a song that I’ve covered in every single band I’ve ever been in since I was 16, as well as a solo performer.

Greg Sage is one hell of a songwriter, and lucky for us, still roaming the Earth at age 72.

@historyofpunkrock damn, I thought all day about this question 😅 I think it‘s #EA80 one of Germany’s oldest #punk / #postpunk bands (still active). Loved their music as teenager, still like them a lot. Alongside #Joydivision, #HüskerDü and #TheWipers the style of this band has shaped my taste of music a lot.
