40 years ago today I bought this album. It was scorching hot. I was going to take the bus to the record store. I tired of waiting and ran to the store. I ran home and a sweaty 14 year old me furiously put this on the turntable. I was blown away. People say “game changing” a lot now this truly was. I was changed and music was changed. I called friends over to listen. The excitement was palpable. Some called it “punk” and that’s how I got into punk. #Metallica#KillEmAll#np#NowPlaying
Why you should still buy #music. I know the Union of Musicians and Allied Workers are looking for $.01 a stream, I think it should be more. I thought about at least $.10 but I thought about juke boxes when I was young, you got 3 songs for $.25. So how about $.084 a stream?

Die Kreuzen goes post-punk. Just as good but in a different way. Doesn’t really sound like any other post-punk sure there’s bits of Bauhaus and others but it sounds like Die Kreuzen. Many people were disappointed with this follow up to their self-titled but how good would a rehash of that been? VoiVod covered “Man In The Trees”. #DieKreuzen#OctoberFile#postPunk#voivod#np#NowPlaying
Alright, it’s been a week on #Threads and despite my diligent following and favoriting and muting, I’m still getting force-fed Kardashians. I was never active in Instagram, so maybe I’m getting a colder start than others? Not even memes warranting a half-hearted nose exhale.
An infamous Milwaukee institution. Goofy , Milwaukee centric punk. Songs about mobile homes, Helvetica, and other oddities. This is a collection of recording from the bulk of their existence. #CouchFlambeau#Milwaukee#MKE#punk#np#nowPlaying
First song I ever performed live? “Zombies for Christ” when I was in a hardcore band called Self Denial. At a hall in Kenosha, WI (Racine?) opening for The Iowa Beef Experience. A band couldn’t play my band was all there so we played. #band#livemusic
More of this from popular artists: “I’ll be happy to tell you I’m very fucking comfortable talking politics,” Williams says. “If you vote for Ron DeSantis, you’re fucking dead to me. Is that comfortable enough for anyone?” #DontStayInYourLane
The only Minor Threat recording I own is the CD with everything on it. It is exhausting to listen to it all. So I split my digital files into the original releases and it make it a more enjoyable listen. I do this with a lot of combined CDs, makes the experience better. #punk#HardcorePunk#DCHardcore#discord#DiscordRecoreds#MinorThreat
