• I HATE MUSIC

  • WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO AND WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY ABOUT IT?

peeblood yeah I didn’t end up keeping my copies. 4 turned me onto The Leopards single but nothing else really stuck out. I don’t remember any Huey Lewis songs but this actually has me wanting to go back and give another listen

      The first time I saw them was in Seattle in 2010 and it was a top ten all time show. Pretty sure it was the last show of a long tour. Then saw them a couple years later at SXSW for a one off show and it was a bit of a train wreck. Would love to see them again.

        Randall ACADEMY ONE was the tracks I hated off of postcards 4, Huey Lewis is giving them way too much credit

          I've been listening to a TON of Ultimo Resorte and Poison Girls! I tried listening to the new Shrapnel and Sharp Pins and Straw Man Army......nothing.

          Right on. What is the comp do you think peeblood? maybe the opener on Lamps?

          a song so wild TP won't even let you watch it embedded.

            New SPLIT SYSTEM single has that repetitive, hypnotic quality of a simple punk riff being the main attraction, kinda like « Tania » by Sex Vid, but played by Hank Wood & the Hammerheads and with added guitar leads. (It’s great.)

            Also woke up playing this cavemen/ cavewomen hc punk demo and thought of a faster State Children.

              Been listening to Only The Stones Remains by The Soft Boys about 2736429 times in a row. Such a great song.

              Really enjoying this album from Jonathan Henley (biased because we share a last name). Kind of reminds me of the sideways approach to Americana that Workers Comp takes, although maybe a bit less smart-alecky. Really propulsive and great hooks. Love the recording, too.

              Just ordered the Influenza Prods lp. 80s Bedroom DIY duo from Italy. So very Ace if you're into this kinda thing.

                Jacket Burner - TONIGHT -- dark and grimy punk rock out of New Mexico.

                A friend of mine just found this tape in Olympia and put it online yesterday. Portland power pop/new wave from '85. A neat artifact for those interested in Portland music history. No relation to the Calvin Johnson band of the same name.

                  Last time I saw them I basically lost my mind in the noise section of Ghostrider. The room was bathed in a dim red light and I lost my voice screaming and jumping up and down, 100% sober. Never experienced such a primal personal moment in a public setting.

                    Notorious B.I.G. - Ready to die. A classic for sure. Some of the lines hit me harder this listen than before. Gimme the loot.

                    The Stupids - Peruvian Vacation. Sillier than i remembered. Still good and a good break from all current "serious" hardcore. Fav. track: "Shoulda have listened"

                    Strul - Lennart Och Asen. Their 12" from 2017 (wow time flies) on Ken Rock. Better than i remembered. FFO Swinehood/Missbrukarna. Good news is a new 12" coming this year on Copenhagen label Adult Crash.

                    Slan - Ägd LP. Also from Gothenburg, Sweden as Strul. This is faster and harder hardcore more in the vein of Mob 47 or a ultra fast Totalitär. One of my favorite hardcore releases from last year.

                    The Touch The Feel agreed. That LP is tops start to finish. I've tried to get them to reunite for both Corporate Retreats but they aint having it
