Radio - Sunday August 14th, 2022

On tonight’s show, we have some new material, some old material, and a demo feature for CRISIS PARTY, but up first a tribute to Gord Lewis to mark his passing. All the tributes I have read talk about what a nice and kind person Gord Lewis was. On January 28th, 2007, TEENAGE HEAD played our show and Greg Dick did this in depth interview with them. We are going to play clips from that interview and intersperse it with some Teenage Head classics. We’re going to start out with where the band got started. You can download the show here.

Their five track demo titled “Welcome to the Party” is Slated to release on Dirt Cult Records, September 2nd. The label lists influences such as Wipers, Wire and The Marked Men.

Tonight's EXD will feature a set of lesser known anarchist bands from the UK scene, a set on police violence (playing catch up with the George Floyd case), an anti nuke tribute in honour of the 35th anniversary since Chernobyl melted down, and a set of song titles that sound absurd. Pok Gai from Ottawa in our demo feature. And that brief doesn't cover all the directions we get into for tonight's punk extravaganza. Download the show here.

Anarcho punk

I have been reading Ian Glasper's book "The Day the Country Died" which writes about many bands in the anarcho punk scene in the UK and I have been coming across some of these lesser known bands so I thought I would put together some songs from some of these bands.
