Oh deary me. A somewhat slurred podcast this week. I recorded this on Friday night after coming home from sharing about seven pints with my boss at Proper Job, who is a thoroughly decent chap and doesn't get out for beers as often as he used to due to an unfortunate breeding accident in which his wife had a baby, thus confining him to the house. The lesson - gentlemen, for the love of god, don't let them breed! So I came back to the house and wanted to play some loud
music. I popped a bottle of beer, bought some munchies and mumbled my
way through a pile of loud, rambunctious songs that I played far too
loud as I sorted out the playlist, and great fun it all was too. I
asked about modern rowdy music this week, and Bart kindly recommended
some bands, a couple of whom I assume I may have been a little quick to
dismiss in the past, so I am going to have another go at them. Looking through the playlist, I find one thing sticking out more
than anything else: how the hell can you tell a Sex Pistols demo from a
Sex Pistols recording? 02. The Von Bondies - Shallow Grave (08.59) 03. The Bellrays - Blues For Godzilla (12.05) 04. Ian Dury & the Blockheads - Ballad of the Sulphate Strangler (17.49) 05. The Damned - Thrill Kill (23.07) 06. Hoggboy - Left & Right (29.31) 07. Liars - Mr You're on Fire Mr (35.33) 08. Monster Magnet - Kiss of the Scorpion (37.57) 09. The Sex Pistols - Anarchy in the UK (Demo) (43.24) 10. The Fall - Two Librans (49.47) 11. The Small Faces - All or Nothing (Live) (.) 12. The Detroit Cobras - Hey Sailor (.) Song, by Toad |
