Things I want the youths to know

You're missing the mark by zeroing in on emo and early 00's pop punk. Third wave ska and melodic punk was musically similar but way better. It's come to my understanding that the youths have largely never heard of Reel Big Fish and some haven't even heard of ska - but let me tell you as I menacingly shake my cane: Blink 182 is nothing - NOTHING - when compared to Reel Big Fish (not to mention Catch 22, Blue Meanies, Voodoo Glow Skulls, The Vandals, etc.)

Also, if you're into the late 90's/early 00's nostalgia, you should know that CAKE is legitimately the greatest band ever. They've made 6 flawless albums, choose one at random and listening to it all the way through is guaranteed to be a transcendental experience. ALSO Andrew WK's "I Get Wet" is the best album ever made for youths looking to go out and do youthful things and make incredible memories they'll cling to when their bodies stop working so good.

For all of the talk about "Outlaw Country" there's been a stunning lack of talk about the song "Duncan and Brady". This is a song about a guy (Duncan) who basically creates an old western commune, forces the town's one cop (Brady) to go all the way on the other side of town away from everybody else, subsequently isolating the cop to the point that the cop exclusively talks to himself and wants to go arrest someone so he can have somebody to whom he can converse. When Brady comes to Duncan's house while Duncan and his pals are engaged in some illegal gambling, so Duncan and his pals load up a motherfucking cannon loaded up with "potato chips and poker chips and paper plates and paper plates and pickled chicken lips and spinach and used cars and loose change and..." etc. (notably including dynamite), and they shot Brady the cop with it and "splattered him all over the east side of town". Then for good measure, they call his wife to tell her that Brady's been splattered all over the east side of town, but she was having fun doing her own things and didn't care at all.

On ^^^ I should note I'm going off of Tom Rush's version off of his 2006 album "Trolling For Owls" which is absolutely indisputably the greatest country album of the 21st century. I think other versions of "Duncan and Brady" suggest the murder involved significantly less frivolity, which subsequently makes those other versions less good.

Listen to the album "Destroy What Destroys You" by Against All Authority - if it's not my favorite album of all time, it's close. Another one of those albums where there aren't any bad songs, there aren't any not-great songs.

whenever i really want to start a fight on the internet that will lead to nothing useful, this song plays in my head and, most of the time, that's enough to talk me out of it

genuinely one of the more concrete impacts a piece of art has ever had on me

In defense of ska to talk to Scene and Horror Metalcore band Ice Nine Kills

(Tweet from @hi-eichlers)

(Picture with my tweet)

For those who aren't on ska twitter, or really in the ska scene, Freelance Music Journalist, Aaron Carnes hosts a podcast based on topics from his ska punk / skacore history book. His mission was as the name of the book says to give readers (mostly readers w/ negative or less positive opinions on ska and the ska punk / skacore genres a different perspective. Aaron now finished with that book has now converted those ideas into a podcast

(tweet from @megainfinityband)

This podcast has interview anyone generally whos been connected to the ska scene in one way or another. Episodes including, Anthony Fantano, Laura Jane Grace of Against Me, Reade Wolcott of We are the Union, Eichlers, Jer Hunter of Skatune Network and We are the Union, Barry Johnson of Joyce Manor, and Now one of my favorite scene bands Ice Nine Kills.

Ice nine kills minus the demos, and a local tv performance and some collabs hasnt made a ska record since the band was in high school.

Said demo which you can torrent lmao

The podcast will be recorded sometime in june.
