Anarchist Corner 
THE EX were a band from Amsterdam that started out in 1979. The band started out in the squat movement and were inspired by bands like the Fall and the Mekons. The band was known as an anarcho-punk band but they were also associated with the post punk scene. Rumour is that the band spent the first six months on graffiti advertising. The first release is this song on the Utreg Punx compilation. 

THE EX - Stupid Americans (Rock Against) 
THE EX - Cells (He / Superior Viaduct) 

In June 1980, The Ex released their first EP, All Corpses Smell the Same. The most striking features of the music are the strongly rhythmic guitar attacks and the dogged way in which Sok spit the words into the microphone. The lyrics deal with politics, squatting, and social injustice. The band's first full-length album, Disturbing Domestic Peace, was released later the same year. 

THE EX - Outlook-Army (Verrecords / Eh) 

Shortly after these recording were released, Geurt left the band and was replaced by Willem from the Rondos. René left the band and was replaced by Bas on the bass. In 1982, The Ex released their second album, History is What's Happening; this album is seen as a musical evolution. Many of the songs were created during live performances. Two tracks from The Ex were included on the compilation album Oorwormer. In 1982, Willem left the band and was replaced by Sabien on the drums. 

THE EX - Dutch Disease (More Dirt Per Minute) 

In April 1983, the Ex released their third album, Tumult, produced by Jon Langford of the Mekons. A few months later, their 12 inch Gonna Rob The Spermbank was also released; this record contained four songs that were also recorded during the recording session of Tumult. In 1983, The Ex also released the album Dignity Of Labor, which appeared as a box containing four 7" singles and a book. The singles each contained eight untitled tracks that deal with the demise of the Wormer-based Van Gelder paper factory. Bas left the band and was replaced by the new bassists Luc and Joke. In the fall of 1983, The Ex did their first tour of England. A product of this tour is the split 12" The Red Dance Package that The Ex released in collaboration with the band Alerta. 
 
THE EX - The Well-Known Soldier (F.A.I. / Fist Puppet) 
THE EX - Kidnap Connection 

This is off the double album “Blueprints For A Blackout” released in March 1984. This album included more improvisation, and new musical instruments were used, including violin, oboe, marimba, and oil barrels. During this period, The Ex consisted of five band members who adopted "Ex" as their last name. In 1986, The Ex recorded the double single 1936: The Spanish Revolution. The double single contained Spanish folk songs, and a 144 page booklet on the Spanish Revolution. I remember the band talking about how they were exhausted by all the research put into this project. 

THE EX - They Shall Not Pass (Ron Johnson / The Ex) 

In 1987, the EX teamed up with the English punk band Chumbawamba under the name Antidote to record the single Destroy Fascism! which is released on Loony Tunes Records. 

ANTIDOTE - Education (Part 2) (Looney Tunes) 

In October 1989, the Ex launched their first American tour with the Canadian band NoMeansNo. That’s when I would see them at a show at the Rivoli. In November, the Ex release their next album which is a double album Joggers & Smoggers. This album is more experimental and jazzy, and features many guest musicians, including members of Sonic Youth and Ab Baars. 

THE EX - Nosey Parker 

In 1991, the Ex started their singles project. They offered a subscription where subscribers paid 36 guilders to receive a new single every two months for a year. Each single contained four songs recorded during a performance at the Bimhuis in Amsterdam, where The Ex was supported by guest musicians Ab Baars, Han Bennink, and Wolter Wierbos. The Ex also start their collaborations with Tom Cora who is a celloist. Adds a different dimension to what they are doing. Here’s a song off their second record together which comes out in 1993 (And the weathermen shrugs their shoulders). The first one comes out in 1991.

THE EX - Conviction Going Gaga 

The following year the EX start doing dance performances and the year after they start experimenting with blues. The band would continue to be very active until 2011 doing many interesting things, but that is for wikipedia to tell you and not a punk show.

Mulroney inspired set (Stephen)
Brian passed away on Leap Day. All the eulogizing is making me think he was a great guy when he wasn’t. I strongly recommend the book “On the Take” by Stevie Cameron. The book documents crime corruption and greed in government during the Mulroney Years. He visited York University and the students pelted him with dried pasta chanting “We’re Tired, We’re Boney, We’re eating macaroni”. He sold us out to the Americans and screwed this country over. Here are some songs to remind us of that side starting out with
