They Declare It!

Probably one of the most iconic record covers of punk ever. The four songs contained on Discharge's "Realities Of War" e.p. are sharp, to the point, and unequaled in there outright assault.I can not and will not ever listen to this drunk because I'm afraid I may just lose that last marble in the brain bowl. If your not into this record... face it; your not that punk and probably like Band of Horses or whatever snooze fest "hip" cafes are listening to.

Florida Player Piano.

Growing up in Florida was a weird thing. Hardly any good bands would come to play because it was considered a loss in time and money (due to the fact that you have to back track however far down you go). Being punk meant that you would eventually fall victim to skinhead beatings and to top it all off the weather is like being a lobster and being boiled slowly to death and insanity. Despite these short-comings, there are certain things that are special about growing up in a shitty place.
1. I don't take much for granted.

2. My patience for the elderly is very high.

3. I now know that "Every" salad dosen't have to have fried stuff on top of it.

4. 90's Florida Death Metal was a great time despite the fact that at the time I was a little reluctant to go to shows because "It's not punk!".

5. Able to make something out of nothing.

6. Futurisk is amazing.

Peel Slit.

Probably the greatest female punk band ever. Founding member Ari Up died in October. Her remarkable impact on music can be felt worldwide. Long live the legacy of the Slits!http://www.mediafire.com/?dwwl99s7066fs

Radiation Masterbation.

Maybe because I'm starting to realize I'm getting older that I constantly feel the need to put on a Killed By Death comp. Having grown up proper, that is to say I was punk, I still identify with these sounds and simplistic youthful idealism put to wax. Most of all the Killed By Death comps are fucking stellar too. If your like me and don't have the cash to shell out three to five hundred dollars for a very illusive 45 then just get these. You can still have some left over scratch to go and get model glue and paper bags too.http://www.mediafire.com/?7y7gy03ytsv32

Into the garden.

Artery is a Sheffield post punk band that mainly operated from 1979 to roughly about 1985. They are one of the greatest bands I got turned on to while working in a record store for three years in the mid 00's. "Afterwards" compiles the bands singles and a great deal of songs culled from the stellar album "Oceans". Dark, brooding, and driving are all things Artery seems to achieve effortlessly with in every single song on offer here. Do yourself a favor and give "Unknown Pleasures" a rest and listen to this more often. John Peel used to play "Into the Garden" constantly on his show and sometimes the song would make multiple appearances within a single day. If that is not petrol in tank... you need to start walking.

Dead Moon Night!

Dead Moon are everything rock n roll should be but isn't. Dangerous, working class, and dedicated. While many would argue that the Stones are probably the longest running and some what most notorious band on the planet, Dead Moon is far more respectable as they don't travel around with a bus full of people to handle their drugs and day to day bullshit. Just three of the most rock n roll motherfuckers riding around in a shitty van playing affordable shows to people who bleed for it. Front man Fred Cole is no stranger to cult status either. Having served time in bands such as the Lollipp Shoppe, Zipper, and the Weeds to name a few, he started Dead Moon in the tough for real rock n roll year of 1987 with his wife Toody Cole on bass and drummer Andrew Loomis. Melding the perfect balance of punk, garage, and raw romping rock is something that Dead Moon delivers with every release when most bands sell their souls to have some shitty song on a car insurance commercial. On offer is the classic "Dead Moon Night" and "13 Off My Hook". If you at all enjoy this I recommend you watch the documentary about the band "Unknown Passage". Long live Dead Moon.

Dark Corners.

Tonight I will be attending and djing a show at the ever amazing Silver Factory in L.A. Blessure Grave is playing along with Veil Veil Vanish from S.F. and a few other bands I believe. Should be an amazing time. A bunch of people are djing too. Every time I here of a minimal synth dj thingy I always think back to Suicide. Not only are the coolest motherfuckers ever but their intelligence and attitude toward music is truly inspirational. They also did the most punk thing ever in the early seventies which was to play rock n roll without conventional instruments. Their first drum machine was a bowling pin setter that made weird clicking noises. If you can out punk that then you should just transform into a safety pin or something.
