Seven Days: Vermont's Independent Voice

Suck It, Hot Topic

You know you’re a capital-P Punk band when you’ve been banned from Canada and booted from a major touring punk festival — in this case, the Vans Warped Tour — for being too, well, punk rock. But southern California’s Guttermouth have been pushing buttons and fraying nerves for nearly a quarter-century. Loud, snarling and unapologetic, they are welcome throwbacks to an age when being punk was about more than where you got your Ramones tee. Wednesday, September 5, Guttermouth play — and then will probably be asked to leave — the Monkey House in Winooski. The Scandals and locals the River City Rebels, Hunger and 10K Volt Ghost open.
