In this video, Joshua dives into the world of 1990s skate punk, showing you the skills and techniques you need to bring the sound of 1990s skate punk to life, and even write your own skate punk riffs.
Skate punk was the lovechild of the blossoming California skateboarding scene and the late 1980s hardcore punk scene. Bands like Bad Religion, Descendents, NOFX, and Pennywise started gaining popularity, using a more melodic sound and incorporating elements of pop punk into their music.
Joshua Ray Gooch is a prodigious LA-based rock guitarist. In addition to years on the road playing with Shania Twain and working in the studio with legendary producers as a studio musician, Joshua is a seasoned educator who has taught for Hal Leonard and written a monthly column for Premier Guitar magazine.

Skate punk is peak music!

[@Pickupjazz]

facts

[@RByrne]

Yes 411! I had boxes of them. Not only that, but all skate videos got me into so many different types of music, hip hop, classic rock, folk, punk, etc..

[@Pickupjazz]

whoever curated those soundtracks deserves an award

[@alfianbanjaransari4096]

I never thought Pickup Music would actually "pick up" punkrock. This is awesome!

[@Pickupjazz]

We are just getting into all things Rock 🎉

[@jasonhathaway9746]

I believe Epitaph Records had a major role in the development of our music and bringing this style to the masses. Great video 🤘🏻

[@Pickupjazz]

Many hands behind these greats!

[@PremiumUserUltra]

I miss how it used to be in San Diego.. none of this is left

[@flugga182]

Ngl, I must have learned more in 13 minutes than in the past 13 years. I wish somebody would break it down to me like this a long time ago. Thanks!

[@Pickupjazz]

[@emanuelloliveira1317]

great lesson! thank you!

[@Pickupjazz]

It's our pleasure 🤘

[@gabor222]

I thought that it's the speed of it which will be hard for me (never played this genre before) but at the end that was the easy part.
The octaves part was quite difficult for me to mute instead of accidentally make them into power chords all the time.

Top 7: Lagwagon, No Use for a Name, Hi Standard, Strung Out, Frenzal Rhomb, Nofx, Propagandhi

[@michaelr.4878]

Nothing beats well written, melodic punk. Lagwagon is my favorite band of all time...and punk isn't even my favorite genre. But their performance and songwriting are hard to beat.

[@surfjones3]

Is the 1st part all down strum

[@dm4728]

I was a blader at this time... I remember the video series Video Groove...

[@Pickupjazz]

those were the days

[@Barry101er]

The sound of The Descendants 😊

[@Pickupjazz]

So good!

[@pburghdoom]

I love this but question, do you think the punk rockers at the time thought about it this way?

[@tony57763]

What's the song at 0:36?

[@fabsonguitar]

How to play so many Strung Out songs in one class:

[@dwaneyocum1718]

By "people" you mean teenage boys with no job and nothing to do?

[@BukanIbuMu]

Sounds like tiktok people
