And I

Can't wait to hear this!

Saw him

at the Union Chapel last Christmas. He proposed to his girlfriend at the end of his set, which just topped off an awesome awesome show. And i primarily went for the Mountain Goats!

No no no

Fun Lovin' Criminals...?

Surely the answer is

A) Rock bottom

- is it ice cube or summat?

The point of this is...

not that punk was shite per se, just that using the word 'punk' as a synonym of 'good' is, well, a bit tired.

Sure, punk was a revolution of sorts and it had an impact and wasn't '77 great? but it's lazy journalism, as well as slightly patronising, to label any new movement with assumed worth as being 'punk'.

I think that's the point...

^ The one

with Remus on it...

How about...

very early Alkaline Trio - that album of 7" stuff with Cooking Wine, My Friend Peter etc simply named Alkaline Trio is sheer genius

And... If i mention the first Hundred Reasons album will i be lynched?

Amen

to the Desaparecidos - Conor Oberst's best work right there

Surely it has to be

Through Being Cool if we're talking Saves the Day - or even Can't Slow Down. Certainly anything after Stay What You Are is a bit pathetic?

Be good

or be gone is at least AS good as penny in the slot

Awesome

article! Sent me right back to my teenage years. Made me dig out all my old faves - Lightyear and Adequate 7 and Howards Alias and Capdown and Farse. I loved that scene and it pleases me that i wasn't the only one. Shame we have to grow up though...
Nice one Patashnik!
