Maybe for lack of better representation, I'm pretty sure this album does, or should have an artist statement. It does things like use samples, make references in lyric or instrumental to other songs, and just other historical punk stuff, but other sounds and influences of counter culture. It is record to showcase what the "next steps" were for sounds, concepts and ideas of what the next generation of underground punk was to be.

I love how a lot of your recent videos (The Decline, Propagandhi, Satanic Surfers, this...) are all about the bands and songs that have shaped my musical taste. There was a real underdog feeling to it, back in the day, not much airplay for these bands (as there was for things like Sum 41 and the like), at least here in Belgium. It's really nice to see someone who wasn't familiar with it be so open to it, and amazed by the musicality of it. People saw us as angry idiots, but there is so much intelligent punk(rock)/hardcore. Your videos are some kind of validation. Thank you very much, it warms the heart. (Also: I'm a bit jealous you get to hear these great songs for the very first time :))

TSoPtC is my all-time favorite album; it is brilliant. Anarchists making anarchic music with anarchist lyrics; it is the refusal to acknowledge musical rules and norms that engenders the transcendence of the music. I cannot count the number of times I've listened this album over more than 25 years yet it always sounds fresh, new and exciting. It is truly astounding that 4 guys in their early 20s were able to produce something so complex yet cohesive. IMO it is only rivaled, distantly, by The Clash's Combat Rock.

It's so cool that out of the indie punk dust it was discovered by mainstream as a very emotional build up piece that perfectly sets the stage for some cinematic badassery.

I bought this album when it came out. Scandinavia had some good progressive rock bands in the late 90's, Düreforsög - Knee (1996 DK) is an honorable mention. But this album towers over everything else. A true masterpiece from start to finish. I still remember the first time I put CD in my stereo as it was yesterday. What I really want to say is: This album has become a hidden diamond, and you are lucky to come across it. Listen to the rest of it, start to finish. Honestly, I think it is the best prog-rock album of the 90's. "Knee" was a small original concept that worked great for one album. For me personally, the only albums that even come near this monster masterpiece is Metallica AJFA (1989), Tool Ænima (1996), Tool Lateralus (2001).

You could say they're the most progressive sounding punk/hardcore band in that era

It cannot be understated how different this album was when it came out as well. Not only from themselves, but from literally anything that existed. This came out in 1998 even other punk bands were nowhere near this.

Fun fact!!!! If anyone has played Cyberpunk 2077, The Refused are the band that did all of the songs by The Samurai!!! Which you can find all of THOSE songs on Spotify as well (totally worth checking out btw)

So much love for this album! It's title is borrowed from "The Shape Of Jazz To Come" and there are more surprises waiting inside. Their next two albums are brilliant too, and God damn they are tight live. So glad you chose Refused!

That is one of my favorite albums. I feel like you should know they got back together, and were up to recently playing shows when their lead singer had a massive heart attack. He is doing fine, but they aren't active. He also has a KZitem channel (Dennis Deepcuts) with a surprising amount of videos and seems like a decent dude all around

What an album. "Songs to fan the flames of discontent" is another one to take a look at. Also, another record that came out around the same period worth checking out is "I Fail" by The Spectacle. Picture this, but from Norway.

So lucky as a regular Punk Rock Bowling attendee that I have got the chance to see them play 2 times live now, they are amazing live as well. We even got lucky enough to talk to them post show at the Hotel one year, they were so damn nice and humble.

I got to see them the night before they broke up. Being 17, I didn't see it then, but now I can remember the tension in the room & they put every ounce of frustration & burnout into that set. It was amazing.

This album was so far ahead of it's time, even today. The way they fused hard-core and hard-bop together, especially on "The Deadly Rhythm", there's very little if anything to compare it to. Completely original and groundbreaking. A desert island album for me. It's a bold move naming your album 'The Shape of Punk to Come' like Ornette Coleman did with 'The Shape of Jazz to Come' effectively giving birth to avant-garde/free jazz. It's a Babe Ruth called shot and Refused hits it out of the park.

Bro your face when the beat kicked back in at 8:43. That's the reason this album will live in infamy always.

I’m loving this channel. So much good punk music i grew up on, love how much enthusiasm you have for it as a first time listener. Shape of Punk to Come was a perfect storm. Just so many bad ass riffs, The Deadly Rhythm is a great choice (although The Shape of Punk to Come is my personal favorite). I have to nominate some Hot Water Music. Jason Black is right up there with Matt Freeman for me as the best bassists in the genre.

Hell yeah this song kicks ass! I think it's really about the drums and bass on this one.

The shape of punk to come blew our minds when we first heard it... It was so different. The whole album is like this song. You never know what will come next, and I really liked that. If you wanna hear more Swedish punk, then I can recommend Millencolin. It's more upbeat skate pop punk kinda style, in the best way possible. Idk if there is any songs that have some great bass, but maybe some of your viewers can help with a specific recommendation?

I’m so here for LowEnd University diving into “real” screamo. This is a good transitioning song to make the jump to Orchid (not the big rock band), Ampere, Saetia,..

That guitar progression in combination with the drums at 9:56 is so damn cool! I wondered if you would notice and you did 😃

If you like how this songs shifts in the middle, you should check out bands like City of Caterpillar, PG.99, Funeral Diner, Circle Takes the Square, Saetia. That'll be a fun journey into something new. Some people label the genre as Skramz, but it's also been labeled as early screamo.

The singers band after refused, the international noise conspiracy has a load of great bass lines. Less hardcore and more garage rock. "Up for sale" is one of my favorites.

Punk and hardcore originally were supposed to live outside of society's rules and norms, but ultimately they adopted many of their own unwritten rules and norms, in some ways becoming just as conformist as any other mainstream group or movement. Refused broke a bunch of these rules when they released this record, and there ended up being some backlash to it. Over the years though, it became a highly influential album that ended up living up to its title.

This album is bonkers. I saw the video for New Noise on MTV (when they still played music videos), bought the album and was blown away.

I was looking through the comments to see if there's a connection to Ornette Coleman's 1959 album The Shape Of Jazz to Come featuring Charlie Haden on bass. That album really pushed the envelope of jazz expression at the time just as Refused seemed to be trying to do here, with musicality and jazz influence not common in the punk scene. The band was definitely influenced by jazz, and this song features some samples from Art Blakey performances, though ironically, none from Coleman. If you check out the Ornette Coleman album, you'll see that many of the observations you made about this song could be applied to songs there... it was a VERY different style of jazz.
