La vida 'secreta' como virólogo de Dexter Holland, el legendario cantante de #Offspring: "Hacer #ciencia es tan creativo como la música":
"En 2017 se doctoró con una tesis sobre el VIH. No es algo frecuente toparse con estrellas de la música que sean también sean científicos: "No hay muchos, pero en el mundo del #punk#rock sí hay algunos, el cantante de Bad Religion: Greg Graffin, biólogo evolutivo, y el de de Descendents: Milo Aukerman, biólogo molecular"
Briefly, I threw some of my favorite Meat Puppets songs on a playlist - that isn't to say there's not songs on MANY of their other LPs and EPs I love, but there's nothing before 1989 here. These are my Meat Puppets go-to LPs. To me, all perfect but one, which is close. In chronological order,
*Monsters (perfect)
*Forbidden Places (perfect)
*Too High to Die (perfect)
*No Joke! (perfect minus a song or two I don't like)
*Sewn Together (perfect)
*Lollipop (perfect)
*Rat Farm (perfect)
*Dusty Notes (perfect)
And this is a 17 song playlist with a lot of my favorites, too - pretty much all from those albums: https://youtu.be/ZLAnAnXziok

Too much cool new shit, that's my favorite luxury problem and it's what the past few weeks had in store, so a C-90 won't suffice this time. That, and also i totally had to add a ten-minute tune to the tracklist because why the fuck not? Dial A for fuzzed-out depravity and general mayhem. B for egg-ish dementia, quirky and forbidden fun and games for the whole family. C for darkness, death and despair. D for some beeps & bloops, followed by hits, hooks and melodies.
