Another mix! Damn it Rob, I’m carrying this blog.
MFF#14: (Shut) Up The Punx!
This is version two of a mix I made for this blog and then apparently accidentally deleted. Naturally it is not as good as the first one, but it is still pretty good! It is some of my favourite punk songs from the previous decade. Originally I was going to avoid getting too subgenre-y with it, but then I realised I didn’t have enough pure punk where’s the fun in that? So this has a loose enough definition of punk.
The photo is cropped from one I took when Bomb The Music Industry! played in Dublin last year. People in the photo that I can identify, l-r: (1) Possibly tinyorc? I don’t know her very well, (2) BTMI tromboner*, (3) Stu Daly from Chewing On Tinfoil, (4) A Guy from Give It A Year, (5) Jeff Rosenstock from Bomb The Music Industry!. Also lurking in the background is Saul, with whom every single person in Dublin my age is at least slightly acquainted. Seriously, I once asked a friend from Cork if she knew him and she said “No, but I think I’ve heard of him”.
