Moss Icon - Lyburnum

Woah this place looks different it's all grey. Here is some Moss Icon, some band that were playing emotional hardcore before people were even calling it that (emotional hardcore sounds dumb anyway, like regular hardcore isn't emotional already?). Too bad they missed the 'Revolution Summer' by a year or something. Blah blah, it's good, get it.

THE CONQUEROR WORM

T.S.O.L. - Dance With Me

Punk rock classic, get this if you're not afraid to embrace your inner necrophiliac and chant along to I wanna fuck, I wanna fuck the dead! Because, you know, that would totally give you limitless amounts of punx cred. Don't be afraid this'll be like any other punk record you've heard because there's something different about this I can't quite label. It's got quite a deathrock-esque sound to it. Worth your time.

The Men - Leave Home

Holy shoegazing punx hardcore just got interesting. I really hope more hardcore bands take a leaf out of The Men's book in the future because it really is a breath of fresh air to see them try something a little different. This is rad. That's the word that comes to mind. Rad. People should use that word more often without trying to be ironic. Leave Home seems like a logical progression from their noisier previous release Immaculada, seeing the band focusing more on the less conventional parts of their sound and with great success. I think it's way more punx to play whatever the fuck you want as opposed to the same rehashed hardcore everybody else has been playing for years. The Men are more punx than you. All of you. Deal with it.

Leave Home

Elvis Costello - My Aim Is True and This Year's Model

Elvis Costello, in all his angry, nerdy and literate glory may not look like much, but he's probably one of the most talented songwriters who ever lived.

These two are from his earlier days. They are both phenomenal works of in the pub rock/punk vein. I prefer This Year's Model but they're both so good you'll want them both

Alison is one of the most gorgeous and superbly written (from a lyrical perspective especially) songs ever.

Axegrinder - The Rise of the Serpent Men

You guys are a bunch of posers, can't up the punx for the life of you. I haven't washed in fucking weeks, I'm developing layers and layers of crust, it is the most filthy, gnarly shit you have ever seen. Just got a bunch of patches too fuck yeah Discharge and Amebix all over my fucking shredded jean jacket gonna put spikes all over this shit, up the punxxxx. But for real Axegrinder were the raddest old school crust band around, forget Amebix this is where it's at.

Pissed Jeans - King of Jeans

SICK I'M SICK I'M SICK I'M SICK

I have been sick for days now, it's getting kind of old. You know what isn't getting old though? The new Ceremony album. At first I didn't even like it all that much since it wasn't what I was expecting at all, however it's grown on me like some kind of perpetually pissed-off parasite and I can't get enough of it. SICK OF BLACK FLAG SICK OF CRO MAGS shit is so punk rawk.
