Radio : EXD 1232 - Sunday December 25th, 2022

This week's show is the annual x-mas show hosted by Dave Stevenson (Emissions Records). The playlist features unique songs about christmas by punk bands, and punk covers of x-mas carols. There will be another Angry Snowmans feature. You can expect bands like the Yobs, the Muffs, and Kohu-63 as return appearances. You can also expect lesser known bands like the Sled Kennedys, Dad Brains, Colt Turkey, and Krypt-Keeper 5. New Chubby and the Gang is in the mix. There is a Ramones themed set, a feature on the Cashing in n Christmas comps, a Scandinavian set, a horror themed set, and a set of duets. Actually the Helen Love cover in the duets is my favourite from this year's show. And the show is capped with a demo feature from Oz. Download the show here.

Demo feature 

From the Best Wishes bandcamp page "Blindside are the newest band hailing from the Sunshine State. Being very much influenced by the mid 2000s period of melodic hardcore, think along the lines of Comeback Kid or local acts 50 Lions and Pro-Team. Their demo brings hints of modern youth crew and and classic / semi traditional hardcore."
