Saturday Punk

New segment? Probably not. I'm just not really listening to a lot of new music, with the exception of the new Tiny Vipers album Life on Earth, which is great. Instead, I've been listening to a bunch of punk and post-punk, specifically Joy Division. Anyway, here's some tunage for all of our nostalgic readers longing for the 70's and 80's.




Knocked Up is one of those movies that I watch every time it's on, and it was on the other day. I love some parts and others are just 'eh', but I always love to hear the Clash. This song keeps popping into my head whenever I see the movie, so I figured I'd pass the curse to many more people.

This is a song off the debut album by The Jam In The City. What more can I say?

And here's some Joy Division. The first song off their first album, to be exact. As a side note, if Ian Curtis was still alive, we'd be celebrating his 53rd birthday this Wednesday...

Music Movies Monday #11

I know, it's been a while for MMM. But it's making a comeback. To celebrate such a long a break, here's a few nostalgic videos from a few years ago, and some from a bit longer.

I wish I was alive to see a Joy Division performance. They don't make 'em like this anymore.

This isn't that old ('92), but it continues the 'great band on late night' motif set with Radiohead a few posts ago. For the record, THIS is how you make a network television debut. With a bat!

Finally, another more recent one. It seems a lot longer though, considering Franky has put on quite a few since this.


Ok, that about does it. Look for MMM next week, when it will hopefully actually be on a Monday.
