The Transplants
A super group for the 2000’s – Rancid, The Slackers and Blink 182 – the first album is definitely a must hear. Punk meets hiphop, meets god know what – great music great sound. Possibly my most favorite and a definite ear-worm. https://youtu.be/TuWuoOX0yis Now for the one I first heard https://youtu.be/I9lWfAemdNg and one from theContinueContinue reading “The Transplants”
KMFDM
Kill mother fuckin depeshed mode – as one of my acquaintances told me the meaning of their name was many years ago.. OK KMFDM stands for Kein Mehrheit Für Die Mitleid, loosely translated by the band as “no pity for the majority”. If anyone asks what industrial music is — well KMFDM is the answerContinueContinue reading “KMFDM”
The Specials
Now a few posts ago I mentioned Two-Tone – the sound out of Coventry – if you don’t know where coventry is – Find birmingham on a map and … well lets be honest its sort of south east of Brum .. but if you’ve found brum why go to coventry?.. Ok off my localContinueContinue reading “The Specials”

Alkaline Trio
Along time ago a friend of mine introduced me to this wonderful group – an amazing mix of morbid lyrics with foot tapping music. I was very lucky to see them play a smallish venue in 2006 and have been an avid fan ever since. They present a music of depressive happiness, I can notContinueContinue reading “Alkaline Trio”
The Interrupters
A new band with a classic Two Tone sound – if you don’t know Two Tone (possibly the only good thing to come out of Coventry UK)- can I recommend you look up The Specials, Madness, The Selecter, The Beat and Some of The Clash. In fact I’ll do a post for some of theseContinueContinue reading “The Interrupters”
Frank Turner
OK I know I have mentioned him twice so far in this blog – but I have not actually done one of my dedicated posts for him – so here we are. To me Frank is modern folk at its best – songs for now that should still be sung in 100 years – theseContinueContinue reading “Frank Turner”
GreenDay
OK I am sure some of you will not be surprised that this band has turned up here. Recently listening to my amazon music list- Minority live at the Milton keynes bowl came on and it reminded me what I love about this band. So now the hard part (for me) what do I shareContinueContinue reading “GreenDay”
Destroy Boys
Just love the energy content and music – have to say hope they are still going . https://youtu.be/ZmiKaveWwVE Difference pace but still drags you in – proves a good musical ability https://youtu.be/t6x1M6Hzkfw and this one definitely is a turn it up and play it loud. https://youtu.be/j2NkNUHmyFA
