Another great 'Pups track. I am so fucking pissed at myself that I didn't go see them when they were in town last May.

A Buzzcocks song I only recently discovered. I think this is a good example of the Beatle-ish aspect of their pop side.

I have still never heard Son Volt or Wilco, but I did recently stumble across the band that spawned both of those, Uncle Tupelo. It's basically country music with punk energy. Liking the album this song is from a lot.
Actually, there's a much faster acoustic version that's just as good.

Uncle Tupelo also performed a pretty bitchin' cover of "I Wanna Destroy You" by The Soft Boys

From the Pleasant Surprises Department: I've recently been acquainting myself with the later releases of bands that I really liked but didn't follow going into the mid- to late '90s. One is infamous New York band Agnostic Front, who, I have recently discovered, after a turn towards the metallic in the late '80s/early '90s (a stylistic development to which I was somewhat ambivalent), decided to return to a more purely hardcore sound in subsequent albums. Singer Roger Miret even sounds much more like he did on the early classics United Blood and Victim in Pain (still their best material). The following track even has a chorus that's perhaps even more relevant today than it was back then.

Also (partially) in English --but with much more black leather. (ROWR)

Sadly not a live performance (I think). But nonetheless, Mr. Osterberg during his most fuckable phase.

I really like the album version of this song:

Then there's this one --which they performed live when I saw them in Tucson. The twelve year old kid behind me (who was apparently allowed in with his father as chaperone) knew all the lyrics and was singing along...
Where was this when I was twelve, when it might have come in handy? ;)

I had heard a lot of these DC-based folk, some quite good, a lot of it that just didn't really grab me, but then I listened to one of their later albums and it's just really fucking good. Makes me feel like I should give the older stuff a re-listen. This is a favorite among many good tracks:

Coincidentally, J. Robbins recently produced the debut album by one of my best friends.

That's awesome. They were in good hands.
And I just learned on Discogs that they got back together last year and they played a show in Brooklyn in June. Goddamnit. Well, with any luck, they'll come around again soon. NY and DC aren't all that far apart. |

Probably my favorite hardcore band.

After two albums filled with portraits soaked in paranoid mystery with intimations of a very masculine variety of violence, "supergroup" Tomahawk (Mike Patton (Faith No More, Mr. Bungle), Duane Denison (The Jesus Lizard), Kevin Rutmanis (Melvins) and John Stanier (Helmet)) did a third album based entirely around ideas of Native American ritual. It took me longer to get into this one than the other two, but the more I hear it, the more I hear how it fits in with the rest of their work. This one is a good example:

The only Fleetwood Mac song I know of that was also a hit for Judas Priest.
