Return of The Boom Bap by KRS-One is the BEST hip hop album around… period. It’s rare to find a rapper who mixes intelligent lyrics, non-stop flows, and heavy beats that I guarantee will be impossible to get out of your head (go ahead, I dare you to listen to “Sound of Da Police” and […]
Raised Fist (Brutal Hardcore Punk From Sweden)
Raised Fist is one of the most brutal hardcore/punk bands to come out of Sweden. Forming back in 1993, Raised Fist plays machine-gun fast hardcore with the energy of 10,000 cheese graters (that’s right, 10,000). Fans of Disfear and Toxic Narcotic will definitely find refuge in Raised Fist. Mp3: Raised Fist – Models On TV […]
Spring Heeled Jack – Songs From Suburbia (Catchy Ska)
I’ll put it quite simply: Spring Heeled Jack’s “Songs From Suburbia” is one of the best ska/punk albums around. Unfortunately, it is also one of the most overlooked, even since it came out nearly 10 years ago (Spring Heeled Jack broke up 8 years ago as well). The songs are incredibly catchy, and unlike most […]
Less Than Jake – GNV FLA
There is a lot at stake with Less Than Jake’s newest release “GNV FLA”. In recent years, Less Than Jake’s releases have been (how should I put this) subpar compared to earlier releases. So when LTJ announced they were getting out of the major label game, us older fans were cautiously excited. I listened to […]
The High School Dropouts (For Fans of Ramones, Vapids, Teenage Bottlerocket, The Copyrights)
High School Dropouts, where have you BEEN all my life? The answer to that question is sadly, within a binder in my car on a disc that I never really listened to, until about 2 days ago. I also don’t really have any excuse, since I’ve owned it for about 3-4 years now… please forgive […]
The Ultimate Birthday Mix!
So, I wasn’t going to post this because I thought it was a little conceded, but screw it, I don’t care! Today is my birthday! Although for some reason it doesn’t really feel like it… Anyways, here are the essential songs I listen to on my bday! MP3: Groovie Ghoulies – Happy Birthday The Vandals […]
Voodoo Glow Skulls / Whole Wheat Bread in Philadelphia (6/11/08)
When I heard that Voodoo Glow Skulls were playing a 21+ show up in North Philly at the North Star Bar on Thursday (6/11/08), I wasn’t exactly sure what to expect. I’ve seen the band before, but never in a bar setting, and never a 21+ crowd. On top of that, the venue has a […]
I Hate Moving.
Who doesn’t love moving into a new place and having some unforeseen problems there (*cough* look at the fourth song posted *cough*)? An ode out to everyone doing the move thing, such as myself and Sasha (who as many of you probably have noticed by the punk rock assault, hasn’t posted on here in quite […]
The Damned – Damned Damned Damned (For fans of The Clash)
If you think that The Clash or The Sex Pistols were the first big punk bands from England, you’re wrong. The Damned were the first UK punk band to release a single, an album, and tour the United States, yet they don’t nearly get the recognition they deserve. This is partly because they changed their […]
I Hope Gas Prices Rise!
Ok, I’ll say it… I hope gasoline prices keep on rising. Don’t get me wrong, I’m getting hit hard from it and I can barely afford to fill up anymore at all, but it’s the only way people are going to wake up to our addiction. Maybe now instead of just spending and using gasoline […]
