WEBVTT 00:00:11.009 --> 00:00:13.810 Welcome to My Weekly Mixtape, a podcast that 00:00:13.810 --> 00:00:16.690 takes the classic mixtape approach to building 00:00:16.690 --> 00:00:19.329 a modern playlist. I'm your host, Brian Colburn. 00:00:19.570 --> 00:00:22.570 Joining me once again as guest curator is Patreon 00:00:22.570 --> 00:00:25.449 mixtaper Tom Hutchinson. Tom, welcome back to 00:00:25.449 --> 00:00:27.769 the show, man. Thank you, Brian. It's always 00:00:27.769 --> 00:00:30.309 a pleasure. I love listening and I love being 00:00:30.309 --> 00:00:32.049 a part of this. And this is going to be a fun 00:00:32.049 --> 00:00:34.369 episode for me and you. Yeah, we are going to 00:00:34.369 --> 00:00:36.350 have a lot of fun tonight because tonight we're 00:00:36.350 --> 00:00:38.990 going to be talking about two... very popular 00:00:38.990 --> 00:00:42.729 topics on past My Weekly Mixtape episodes, and 00:00:42.729 --> 00:00:46.770 that is punk rock mixes and workout mixes. So 00:00:46.770 --> 00:00:49.810 what I'm going to do is merge them together to 00:00:49.810 --> 00:00:54.109 create, well, the ultimate punk rock workout 00:00:54.109 --> 00:00:58.590 mixtape. Uber creative, right? Now, Tom, what 00:00:58.590 --> 00:01:00.929 were you looking for the songs that you brought 00:01:00.929 --> 00:01:03.990 in your bank of tunes for this evening from both 00:01:03.990 --> 00:01:08.290 a punk rock and workout perspective? So with 00:01:08.290 --> 00:01:11.870 me working out, I play hockey. I like real, real 00:01:11.870 --> 00:01:15.230 heavy, fast, drawn out music, but I don't like 00:01:15.230 --> 00:01:17.409 it to be too long, you know, two and a half, 00:01:17.430 --> 00:01:19.769 three minutes. So punk rock is perfect for that. 00:01:20.269 --> 00:01:23.469 Also, you know, I was on the Tony Hawk episode 00:01:23.469 --> 00:01:26.170 and a lot of that music was punk based and it's 00:01:26.170 --> 00:01:29.400 what I've listened to since I was a kid. So I 00:01:29.400 --> 00:01:32.180 have a mix of songs that are near and dear to 00:01:32.180 --> 00:01:34.700 me that I grew up listening to that got me into 00:01:34.700 --> 00:01:37.500 this genre. And then I have songs that I have 00:01:37.500 --> 00:01:39.680 on my playlist when I'm in the locker room for 00:01:39.680 --> 00:01:42.840 hockey. So there's a mix of both. It's a good, 00:01:42.939 --> 00:01:45.120 good mix of that I brought to the table tonight. 00:01:45.400 --> 00:01:48.819 And with mine in a similar fashion. A lot of 00:01:48.819 --> 00:01:50.700 these songs are what I listen to now when I'm 00:01:50.700 --> 00:01:53.659 doing cardio or doing my weight workouts. But 00:01:53.659 --> 00:01:57.159 a lot of these songs were also the tunes I listened 00:01:57.159 --> 00:01:59.620 to when I was getting ready to head out onto 00:01:59.620 --> 00:02:02.780 the football field in high school and in college. 00:02:02.840 --> 00:02:05.620 So some of these play a dual role with the newer 00:02:05.620 --> 00:02:08.539 tunes in my fold being stuff that I've listened 00:02:08.539 --> 00:02:11.949 to. more often during the cardio portion of my 00:02:11.949 --> 00:02:15.210 workouts now. I like that fast, upbeat stuff, 00:02:15.389 --> 00:02:17.550 the stuff that you're trying to keep your feet 00:02:17.550 --> 00:02:20.310 going to the beat, trying to keep those BPMs 00:02:20.310 --> 00:02:22.830 up to keep your heart rate going. So I think 00:02:22.830 --> 00:02:26.909 punk rock is the perfect avenue for a good cardio 00:02:26.909 --> 00:02:29.009 workout, and I hope I'm able to represent that 00:02:29.009 --> 00:02:31.990 tonight. And I know, judging by the songs you 00:02:31.990 --> 00:02:34.569 picked on that Tony Hawk episode, that you're 00:02:34.569 --> 00:02:37.379 going to be bringing the heat as well. I definitely 00:02:37.379 --> 00:02:39.400 have a few here that I think are going to surprise 00:02:39.400 --> 00:02:41.759 some people and they're going to go, really? 00:02:41.900 --> 00:02:44.340 You didn't pick this or you pick that instead. 00:02:44.639 --> 00:02:47.300 I know I'm going to make a few enemies with this, 00:02:47.340 --> 00:02:49.680 but I have some good stuff that hopefully people 00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:52.360 are going to go. Yeah, that's a pretty kick ass 00:02:52.360 --> 00:02:55.159 song. And I'm hoping I can make the same convincing 00:02:55.159 --> 00:02:57.800 arguments for the songs I picked as well. So 00:02:57.800 --> 00:03:01.120 with that, let's get down to business. As I mentioned 00:03:01.120 --> 00:03:03.770 at the top of the show. Tom and I will be curating 00:03:03.770 --> 00:03:06.750 the ultimate punk rock workout mixtape, and we'll 00:03:06.750 --> 00:03:09.650 use the old cassette deck approach. Tom, as my 00:03:09.650 --> 00:03:11.729 special guest, will begin with his first song 00:03:11.729 --> 00:03:14.250 choice, and then I'll add a song that I feel 00:03:14.250 --> 00:03:17.110 best follows up that choice. We'll then flip 00:03:17.110 --> 00:03:19.689 -flop choosing songs until we've mapped out 10 00:03:19.689 --> 00:03:22.879 songs for side A. We'll then give our mixtape 00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:25.719 a proverbial flip and we'll map outside. Be only 00:03:25.719 --> 00:03:28.199 this time. I'll kick things off with Tom choosing 00:03:28.199 --> 00:03:31.300 second. Our overall goal for the episode is to 00:03:31.300 --> 00:03:34.580 craft the best punk rock workout mixtape possible 00:03:34.580 --> 00:03:38.099 through only 20 songs. At the end of the show, 00:03:38.139 --> 00:03:40.300 you could take our conversation to the next level 00:03:40.300 --> 00:03:43.680 by visiting the episode page at myweeklymixtape 00:03:43.680 --> 00:03:47.250 .com to give our final mixtape a listen. via 00:03:47.250 --> 00:03:49.810 the embedded playlist. And if you like what you're 00:03:49.810 --> 00:03:51.729 hearing on the show, you can help me out by either 00:03:51.729 --> 00:03:54.629 telling a friend, leaving the show a five -star 00:03:54.629 --> 00:03:57.650 review wherever you're tuning in, or as Tom has 00:03:57.650 --> 00:04:01.069 so graciously done, becoming a Patreon mixtaper 00:04:01.069 --> 00:04:05.030 at patreon .com forward slash myweeklymixtape. 00:04:05.250 --> 00:04:08.129 There you can find ad -free episodes of the show, 00:04:08.330 --> 00:04:11.689 gain early access to upcoming episodes, chime 00:04:11.689 --> 00:04:14.289 in on future topics, become a guest curator, 00:04:14.610 --> 00:04:18.220 and so much more. And a few of the Patreon mixtapers 00:04:18.220 --> 00:04:20.980 chimed in with songs they would use to kick things 00:04:20.980 --> 00:04:23.319 off tonight. And I want to give a shout out to 00:04:23.319 --> 00:04:26.480 a few of those. Sean Goff chimed in with Against 00:04:26.480 --> 00:04:30.279 Me's Transgender Dysphoria Blues, saying not 00:04:30.279 --> 00:04:32.860 only is it a kick -ass song with some real attitude, 00:04:33.019 --> 00:04:37.319 but that Laura Jane Grace is awesome. Chad LaMassa 00:04:37.319 --> 00:04:39.759 chimed in with The Subway's Rock and Roll Queen, 00:04:40.040 --> 00:04:43.319 saying he feels this band is criminally underrated. 00:04:44.279 --> 00:04:47.860 Chris Pazica chimed in with Rancid's Roots Radicals. 00:04:47.860 --> 00:04:50.920 And Philip Bergman chimed in with The Clash's 00:04:50.920 --> 00:04:55.259 Train in Vain Stand By Me. Once again, if you'd 00:04:55.259 --> 00:04:57.660 like to chime in for future My Weekly Mixtape 00:04:57.660 --> 00:05:00.839 episodes, come join the fellow mixtapers at patreon 00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:05.800 .com forward slash myweeklymixtape. So, Tom, 00:05:05.899 --> 00:05:08.339 with that said, I'm officially pressing the record 00:05:08.339 --> 00:05:11.240 button on our mixtape and the floor is yours. 00:05:11.480 --> 00:05:15.660 What song are you kicking off our punk rock workout 00:05:15.660 --> 00:05:19.839 mixtape with? Well, first off, the mixtapers 00:05:19.839 --> 00:05:22.920 got it going on tonight. They had a couple of 00:05:22.920 --> 00:05:26.240 good suggestions. Against Me is a really good 00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:28.920 one to start. And I love The Clash and Train 00:05:28.920 --> 00:05:30.939 to Bane is my favorite Clash song. So good picks 00:05:30.939 --> 00:05:33.810 on that one. But I'm going to go off the beaten 00:05:33.810 --> 00:05:36.389 path. You know, I'm going to kick it off big 00:05:36.389 --> 00:05:39.550 with the song that is big to me. And it gets 00:05:39.550 --> 00:05:41.850 me going something that's in my workout mix. 00:05:42.449 --> 00:05:45.110 And it comes from a band called the Smut Peddlers. 00:05:45.230 --> 00:05:49.750 And it's buck naked on a big wheel. Now, now 00:05:49.750 --> 00:05:52.589 this song, I remember it being in a motocross 00:05:52.589 --> 00:05:54.610 video as a kid. I want to say it's terra firma. 00:05:54.910 --> 00:05:57.269 And I remember hearing it for the first time 00:05:57.269 --> 00:06:00.350 and being like. That is a funny song. I laughed 00:06:00.350 --> 00:06:03.850 about it, but it got me in a headspace that I 00:06:03.850 --> 00:06:06.290 was like, this is awesome. And it slowly started 00:06:06.290 --> 00:06:08.649 turning gears for seven -year -old me to get 00:06:08.649 --> 00:06:11.730 into more and more punk rock music. And to this 00:06:11.730 --> 00:06:13.870 day, Smut Peddlers is one of my favorite bands. 00:06:13.990 --> 00:06:16.410 They put on a wonderful live show, I was going 00:06:16.410 --> 00:06:18.790 to say, and I think that's a great kickoff. It's 00:06:18.790 --> 00:06:22.029 fast, it's hard, and it's just an easy song to 00:06:22.029 --> 00:06:28.370 enjoy. Loud, obnoxious. Perfect. From 1995's 00:06:28.370 --> 00:06:33.009 Failure, Down a Huge Hill, 100 Feet to Go, Lift 00:06:33.009 --> 00:06:38.829 Your Feet, or Lose a Toe. I mean, you can't get 00:06:38.829 --> 00:06:41.470 better than this. Now, however, while this is 00:06:41.470 --> 00:06:45.810 perfect for a punk rock song, it might not be 00:06:45.810 --> 00:06:49.370 the best workout routine suggestion. But to those 00:06:49.370 --> 00:06:54.370 that are listening, I mean, you do you. And if 00:06:54.370 --> 00:06:56.769 the name of this band sounds familiar, but you're 00:06:56.769 --> 00:07:00.149 not sure why, their music is kind of intertwined 00:07:00.149 --> 00:07:03.370 with Jackass as well, because their song Let's 00:07:03.370 --> 00:07:06.430 Get F'd Up is featured on the Jackass 1 soundtrack. 00:07:06.889 --> 00:07:10.129 And I think it's If You're Gonna Be Dumb is featured 00:07:10.129 --> 00:07:13.790 on the Jackass 2 soundtrack. And they also have 00:07:13.790 --> 00:07:17.680 a bunch of songs on The Game. soundtrack, as 00:07:17.680 --> 00:07:22.060 well as episodes on the MTV show. So these might 00:07:22.060 --> 00:07:25.160 be, if you go down the smut peddlers rabbit hole, 00:07:25.300 --> 00:07:29.600 these might be songs that you know, but you don't 00:07:29.600 --> 00:07:32.300 know, you know, especially if you watch jackass. 00:07:32.420 --> 00:07:34.740 A hundred percent. And I was going to say they're 00:07:34.740 --> 00:07:37.459 actually first two albums. They re -released 00:07:37.459 --> 00:07:41.920 as like a compilation and jackass pulled, I think. 00:07:42.220 --> 00:07:44.680 out of the like 30 plus songs, like seven or 00:07:44.680 --> 00:07:47.720 eight songs from it. So if you've seen the movies, 00:07:47.800 --> 00:07:51.180 the TV shows, even Viva La Bam, anything that 00:07:51.180 --> 00:07:54.000 has to do with the Jackass crew, you've heard 00:07:54.000 --> 00:07:55.860 the Smut Peddlers. You just probably don't know 00:07:55.860 --> 00:07:59.100 it. Well, following that up, I'm going to stick 00:07:59.100 --> 00:08:02.399 with this kind of raw vibe we got going here. 00:08:02.560 --> 00:08:05.300 And I'm going to go all the way back to 1982 00:08:05.300 --> 00:08:08.720 with my first pick of the night. And I'm going 00:08:08.720 --> 00:08:12.439 to go off of. an album cover art that I drew 00:08:12.439 --> 00:08:18.019 on so many of my paper bag book covers because 00:08:18.019 --> 00:08:20.579 kids back when I was at high school, you had 00:08:20.579 --> 00:08:23.660 to wrap your textbooks with inside out paper 00:08:23.660 --> 00:08:26.879 bags and tape. And I can't tell you how many 00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:29.620 of my textbooks in high school and in college 00:08:29.620 --> 00:08:34.480 had Milo from the descendants. Milo goes to college 00:08:34.480 --> 00:08:38.059 album on my textbooks because well, one, it's 00:08:38.059 --> 00:08:41.929 pretty easy to draw. But from that album, the 00:08:41.929 --> 00:08:46.950 Descendants love to use the suffix age in their 00:08:46.950 --> 00:08:49.970 songs and in their titles. For example, Tony 00:08:49.970 --> 00:08:54.289 -age, my -age, and their live album Live -age 00:08:54.289 --> 00:08:57.610 are three examples. However, I'm not going with 00:08:57.610 --> 00:09:00.230 any of those. I am going to go with the song 00:09:00.230 --> 00:09:05.230 Bike -age, which is a tune about a drug -addicted 00:09:05.230 --> 00:09:08.190 prostitute. Real happy, upbeat music we got going 00:09:08.190 --> 00:09:11.149 here. With the bike reference meaning, and I'm 00:09:11.149 --> 00:09:14.350 going to channel Austin Powers here. She's the 00:09:14.350 --> 00:09:18.149 village bicycle. Everybody's had a ride. At this 00:09:18.149 --> 00:09:21.110 time in their career, Descendants were aggressive, 00:09:21.509 --> 00:09:25.149 raw, and they, just like the Smut Peddlers, wore 00:09:25.149 --> 00:09:27.389 their sense of humor on their sleeves. Because 00:09:27.389 --> 00:09:29.970 you think about songs like Wienerschnitzel, which 00:09:29.970 --> 00:09:32.169 if you're a movie person, you might remember 00:09:32.169 --> 00:09:35.870 from the Pump Up the Volume film. Not on the 00:09:35.870 --> 00:09:40.149 soundtrack, but in the film. I Like Food, which 00:09:40.149 --> 00:09:43.149 Taking Back Sunday covered on the Tony Hawk American 00:09:43.149 --> 00:09:46.870 Wasteland soundtrack. And if you recall, Tom 00:09:46.870 --> 00:09:50.870 and I talked about that one on episode 65, the 00:09:50.870 --> 00:09:53.529 Ultimate Tony Hawk Pro Skater Soundtracks playlist. 00:09:54.169 --> 00:09:57.629 This, however, Bikage is my favorite Descendants 00:09:57.629 --> 00:10:01.029 song. And then you add the fact, depending on 00:10:01.029 --> 00:10:03.669 what you started with. I could have went in two 00:10:03.669 --> 00:10:06.070 directions here. I went with the raw Descendants 00:10:06.070 --> 00:10:08.909 version, but I could have very easily just went 00:10:08.909 --> 00:10:11.970 one year behind you and pulled Face to Face's 00:10:11.970 --> 00:10:15.850 cover from their 1994 album, Big Choice. You 00:10:15.850 --> 00:10:19.049 can't go wrong with either version, but I think 00:10:19.049 --> 00:10:21.149 I'm going to stick with the original here because 00:10:21.149 --> 00:10:23.789 it works really well being back to back with 00:10:23.789 --> 00:10:26.769 Smut Peddlers. Not to mention, you've got big 00:10:26.769 --> 00:10:30.379 wheels and now you've got bikes. I mean, it's 00:10:30.379 --> 00:10:32.600 a match made in heaven, and I'm so happy you 00:10:32.600 --> 00:10:35.820 brought up the face -to -face version because 00:10:35.820 --> 00:10:39.279 I love face -to -face. Great band. It's one of 00:10:39.279 --> 00:10:40.940 those bands that doesn't get enough love, so 00:10:40.940 --> 00:10:44.419 I'm glad you brought it up. But Descendants were 00:10:44.419 --> 00:10:48.340 just so raw at this time, and it was such a different 00:10:48.340 --> 00:10:52.120 point of view. And they changed a lot over the 00:10:52.120 --> 00:10:55.379 years, but it's still just so beautiful of what 00:10:55.379 --> 00:10:58.360 they were doing at the time. I am also going 00:10:58.360 --> 00:11:01.179 to go with a very, very raw band. We're going 00:11:01.179 --> 00:11:05.200 to stay in the 80s here, but I'm going to kind 00:11:05.200 --> 00:11:08.659 of make a little bit of a turn. So I'm going 00:11:08.659 --> 00:11:11.039 to go with a Dead Kennedy song that was performed 00:11:11.039 --> 00:11:15.179 once at the Bay Area Music Awards as kind of 00:11:15.179 --> 00:11:18.779 a middle finger to everybody in the crowd. And 00:11:18.779 --> 00:11:22.139 that is Pull My Strings. This is my favorite 00:11:22.139 --> 00:11:25.320 Dead Kennedy song because Jello just stopped 00:11:25.320 --> 00:11:27.899 caring about what everybody says and even opens 00:11:27.899 --> 00:11:31.200 it up with, we're not a punk rock band, we're 00:11:31.200 --> 00:11:35.120 a new wave band as the big F you to everybody 00:11:35.120 --> 00:11:38.360 that brought them to this award show. And it's 00:11:38.360 --> 00:11:42.080 a fun song. It's not safe for work, but it has 00:11:42.080 --> 00:11:46.000 a good beat. It gets fast, it gets slow. you 00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:47.840 know, if you're lifting weights, this is a song 00:11:47.840 --> 00:11:50.580 I lift weights to, you know, this is just one 00:11:50.580 --> 00:11:53.759 of those songs. And I think it fits well behind 00:11:53.759 --> 00:11:56.620 the descendants and really takes this mixtape 00:11:56.620 --> 00:12:00.580 to the next level. That it does from 1987. Give 00:12:00.580 --> 00:12:03.159 me convenience or give me death compilation. 00:12:03.740 --> 00:12:06.759 The only album you can find it on a live recording 00:12:06.759 --> 00:12:11.720 from March 25th, 1980. Hold it. We got to prove 00:12:11.720 --> 00:12:17.879 we're adults now. I love this song and Tom is 00:12:17.879 --> 00:12:22.379 very, very right. It is not safe for work. You've 00:12:22.379 --> 00:12:26.299 heard our warnings. If you listen to it at work 00:12:26.299 --> 00:12:29.600 and get in trouble, Tom and I are not responsible. 00:12:30.139 --> 00:12:34.379 And this also two out of three now bands we talked 00:12:34.379 --> 00:12:37.440 about on the Tony Hawk soundtracks episode, but 00:12:37.440 --> 00:12:39.929 I'm not going to say if. this dead Kennedy song 00:12:39.929 --> 00:12:43.129 made the mix or not, but we definitely talked 00:12:43.129 --> 00:12:46.490 at Kennedy's on the Tony Hawk episode. A hundred 00:12:46.490 --> 00:12:48.269 percent. We did. I was going to say, and that 00:12:48.269 --> 00:12:51.169 was police truck we used on that. So another 00:12:51.169 --> 00:12:53.909 one of my personal favorites, not to spoil it 00:12:53.909 --> 00:12:56.649 for everybody, but, but you're spoiling it. Why 00:12:56.649 --> 00:12:59.049 not? It's just one song. We don't know where 00:12:59.049 --> 00:13:00.870 it's at. They'll have to listen to the episode 00:13:00.870 --> 00:13:05.370 and figure it out. Well, going on from the dead 00:13:05.370 --> 00:13:10.299 Kennedy's, I have, Four songs from this band 00:13:10.299 --> 00:13:13.460 in my bank right now. And I'm trying to decide 00:13:13.460 --> 00:13:17.120 which one I want to pull from. Because my favorite 00:13:17.120 --> 00:13:21.700 album from this band is 1994 Stranger Than Fiction. 00:13:21.700 --> 00:13:25.379 Yes, I'm talking bad religion here. But you could 00:13:25.379 --> 00:13:29.620 conceivably go with a walk off The Gray Race 00:13:29.620 --> 00:13:34.299 or Punk Rock Song or Incomplete off of Stranger 00:13:34.299 --> 00:13:37.789 Than Fiction or the re -recorded 21st century 00:13:37.789 --> 00:13:40.970 digital boy. But I think I'm going to go back 00:13:40.970 --> 00:13:44.769 one year from Stranger Than Fiction and go off 00:13:44.769 --> 00:13:49.610 of 1993's Recipe for Hate. This was Bad Religion's 00:13:49.610 --> 00:13:52.309 first charting album in the U .S. It hit number 00:13:52.309 --> 00:13:56.029 14 on Billboard's Heat Seekers chart, and it 00:13:56.029 --> 00:13:58.909 also hit the charts in Germany, reaching number 00:13:58.909 --> 00:14:02.529 34, and Finland, where it reached number 29. 00:14:03.820 --> 00:14:06.960 I could go with the two singles from the album, 00:14:07.120 --> 00:14:09.500 American Jesus or Struck a Nerve, even though 00:14:09.500 --> 00:14:12.899 neither of them charted. They were all over MTV. 00:14:13.080 --> 00:14:16.620 But when it comes to workout songs, I don't think 00:14:16.620 --> 00:14:18.720 you can get any more intense than the title track, 00:14:18.960 --> 00:14:22.000 Recipe for Hate. And following up the Dead Kennedys, 00:14:22.120 --> 00:14:24.139 I think that's where we got to go from here. 00:14:24.200 --> 00:14:26.840 Bad Religion, Recipe for Hate. I was going to 00:14:26.840 --> 00:14:29.000 say that's kind of the kick in the leg, you know, 00:14:29.000 --> 00:14:31.299 kick in the butt you need to get rolling. I was 00:14:31.299 --> 00:14:33.519 going to say it's a good follow up and it works 00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:36.500 well with the Dead Kennedys. And I love Bad Religion. 00:14:36.620 --> 00:14:38.720 I was going to say American Jesus is my personal 00:14:38.720 --> 00:14:41.860 favorite. But good choice here, Brian. I really, 00:14:41.879 --> 00:14:44.039 really think that's going to work really well. 00:14:44.480 --> 00:14:46.480 It's going to make you work up a sweat because 00:14:46.480 --> 00:14:50.340 if you try running to the BPM of that song, you're 00:14:50.340 --> 00:14:52.480 getting the workout going. You can't cool down 00:14:52.480 --> 00:14:55.889 to this song. Not at all. And that's kind of 00:14:55.889 --> 00:14:59.870 where I'm going with my next one. So this is 00:14:59.870 --> 00:15:05.090 going to be tough because I feel. I mean, there's 00:15:05.090 --> 00:15:07.490 a follow up and I can go two ways with this. 00:15:07.950 --> 00:15:10.490 Both are Tim Armstrong projects, so you can't 00:15:10.490 --> 00:15:15.269 be mad about it. You know what? I'm going to 00:15:15.269 --> 00:15:17.330 pick transplants here and this might make some 00:15:17.330 --> 00:15:20.600 people a little sad, but. I'm going to go talk 00:15:20.600 --> 00:15:24.820 hands in the air. This is just a song that I 00:15:24.820 --> 00:15:28.100 ride when I go to the gym. This is a song that 00:15:28.100 --> 00:15:31.580 I get on the bike to, and it just gets me a little 00:15:31.580 --> 00:15:34.399 angry. And I hate to ride the bike. I hate to 00:15:34.399 --> 00:15:38.039 run, but it gets me moving. And, you know, there's 00:15:38.039 --> 00:15:40.639 a lot of fun parts that are also not safe to 00:15:40.639 --> 00:15:42.659 work to sing in this song. So that's another 00:15:42.659 --> 00:15:46.049 thing that gets me going. From their self -titled 00:15:46.049 --> 00:15:50.570 2002 album, we got Distillers, AFI, LFB, and 00:15:50.570 --> 00:15:53.870 Crystal Sound. Transplants are fearless and the 00:15:53.870 --> 00:15:57.529 most original. Yes, original, because it rhymes 00:15:57.529 --> 00:16:01.029 with sound. Talk hands in the air, let me see 00:16:01.029 --> 00:16:05.950 them, blank, blank. The album hit number 96 on 00:16:05.950 --> 00:16:09.490 the Billboard 200. And talk hands in the air 00:16:09.490 --> 00:16:13.139 is actually the B -side. to their single Diamonds 00:16:13.139 --> 00:16:16.539 and Guns. If you ask me, it's the better of the 00:16:16.539 --> 00:16:18.720 two, as much as I love Diamonds and Guns, so 00:16:18.720 --> 00:16:22.740 bravo on the pick. Blink -182's Travis Barker 00:16:22.740 --> 00:16:26.600 lays down a ridiculous beat in this one, and 00:16:26.600 --> 00:16:30.120 then you add Rancid's Tim Armstrong and Rob Astin 00:16:30.120 --> 00:16:33.200 to the fold. You get one of the most unique and 00:16:33.200 --> 00:16:37.480 original punk albums, maybe of the decade. Oh, 00:16:37.500 --> 00:16:40.000 for sure. I was going to say that. I would say... 00:16:40.440 --> 00:16:43.580 even possibly all time. I was going to say, to 00:16:43.580 --> 00:16:46.279 me, I love Rancid, don't get me wrong, but this 00:16:46.279 --> 00:16:49.200 Transplants album, for me, is better than Operation 00:16:49.200 --> 00:16:52.860 Ivy. This is the album. This is something that 00:16:52.860 --> 00:16:56.019 I absolutely could listen to over and over again 00:16:56.019 --> 00:16:58.399 and never get sick of. And like you said, Travis 00:16:58.399 --> 00:17:01.059 Barker's drum beat is what is just so infectious 00:17:01.059 --> 00:17:05.319 about this song. Following that up, you see, 00:17:05.339 --> 00:17:08.210 that kind of gives me a clean slate here. Because 00:17:08.210 --> 00:17:10.789 there's a little bit of everything in the Transplants 00:17:10.789 --> 00:17:13.890 sound. But I think what I'm going to do is stay 00:17:13.890 --> 00:17:18.690 in 2002. Because when I discovered the Transplants 00:17:18.690 --> 00:17:22.670 album, I also discovered this other band around 00:17:22.670 --> 00:17:26.190 the same time. And I was listening to both albums 00:17:26.190 --> 00:17:29.309 back and forth and back and forth. And I honestly 00:17:29.309 --> 00:17:31.509 can't decide between the two which ones I like 00:17:31.509 --> 00:17:34.410 more. But this band's a little bit more straight 00:17:34.410 --> 00:17:38.640 ahead punk rock. With Chris Waller, Chuck Reagan, 00:17:38.859 --> 00:17:42.160 George Rebello, and Jason Black featuring additional 00:17:42.160 --> 00:17:45.759 guitars from Brian Baker of the before -mentioned 00:17:45.759 --> 00:17:49.440 Bad Religion, I am going to go with Hot Water 00:17:49.440 --> 00:17:54.059 Music and their 2002 album, Caution. Now, Tom. 00:17:54.559 --> 00:17:57.940 Being the Tony Hawk fan you are, you might know 00:17:57.940 --> 00:18:01.420 the opening track Remedy from Tony Hawk's Underground, 00:18:01.779 --> 00:18:04.759 but I'm actually going to go with the Chris Waller 00:18:04.759 --> 00:18:09.740 penned Trusty Chords. Quite possibly my favorite 00:18:09.740 --> 00:18:13.059 hot water music song and maybe one of my favorite 00:18:13.059 --> 00:18:17.740 punk rock songs ever. This band is so incredibly 00:18:17.740 --> 00:18:21.529 consistent. They're still going strong to this 00:18:21.529 --> 00:18:25.990 day. Their latest album, 2024's Vows, easily 00:18:25.990 --> 00:18:30.470 makes my albums of the year list for 2024. But 00:18:30.470 --> 00:18:33.490 Trusty Chords, oh my God, there's just such a 00:18:33.490 --> 00:18:36.910 drive and such an intensity to it. And you just 00:18:36.910 --> 00:18:40.170 want to sing along with it. And it just keeps 00:18:40.170 --> 00:18:43.549 that exact vibe going out of the transplants 00:18:43.549 --> 00:18:47.470 into this song. And I feel like the energy is 00:18:47.470 --> 00:18:50.789 just still hitting 10, 10, 10, 10 with every 00:18:50.789 --> 00:18:53.470 song we've picked so far. So following up the 00:18:53.470 --> 00:18:56.529 transplants, trusty chords from hot water music. 00:18:56.990 --> 00:19:00.329 It's a song I completely forgot about until you 00:19:00.329 --> 00:19:03.029 just brought it up. It's been a long time since 00:19:03.029 --> 00:19:06.230 I've heard that. And that is a great song that 00:19:06.230 --> 00:19:10.390 actually fits really well after transplant. So 00:19:10.390 --> 00:19:14.950 that's going to give me a curve ball here. I 00:19:14.950 --> 00:19:17.769 mean, Gaslight Anthems has done it live. A lot 00:19:17.769 --> 00:19:20.410 of bands have covered it. To me, it gives you 00:19:20.410 --> 00:19:23.869 that little bit of inspiration, I guess you would 00:19:23.869 --> 00:19:27.130 say. Because to me, Hot Water Music is a very 00:19:27.130 --> 00:19:30.490 inspirational punk band of the modern era, let's 00:19:30.490 --> 00:19:33.789 say. 100%. And I think that's going to really 00:19:33.789 --> 00:19:37.049 throw my next pick. Another band that tries to 00:19:37.049 --> 00:19:39.990 do the same thing. And that's Rise Against, one 00:19:39.990 --> 00:19:43.650 of my personal favorites. And I'm actually going 00:19:43.650 --> 00:19:47.470 to go with their 2004 single, Give It All. Now, 00:19:47.569 --> 00:19:51.690 this song matches the energy. I mean, it's up 00:19:51.690 --> 00:19:54.970 there. It's very, very fast paced. It has a good 00:19:54.970 --> 00:19:58.250 message. You know, just one of my personal favorite 00:19:58.250 --> 00:20:01.009 songs. And I had it between that and Prayer of 00:20:01.009 --> 00:20:03.170 the Refugee and Give It All fits a lot better 00:20:03.170 --> 00:20:05.730 with trusty chords. And it's going to come out 00:20:05.730 --> 00:20:07.730 not only with a good message, but you're going 00:20:07.730 --> 00:20:09.609 to feel good. You're starting to kind of wind 00:20:09.609 --> 00:20:12.059 down your workout. You might not be pushing as 00:20:12.059 --> 00:20:15.539 hard, but you want to give it all. From 2004's 00:20:15.539 --> 00:20:18.119 Rock Against Bush compilation with a different 00:20:18.119 --> 00:20:21.900 version appearing on the same year's Siren Song 00:20:21.900 --> 00:20:25.400 of the Counterculture, this was Rise Against's 00:20:25.400 --> 00:20:28.019 breakthrough single. It actually reached number 00:20:28.019 --> 00:20:31.259 37 on the Billboard U .S. Alternative Songs chart. 00:20:31.400 --> 00:20:33.799 And without this song making the impact it did, 00:20:33.900 --> 00:20:37.000 I don't think you get 2006's The Sufferer and 00:20:37.000 --> 00:20:40.299 The Witness, which is where I had pulled a couple 00:20:40.299 --> 00:20:43.200 of songs from being injection and ready to fall. 00:20:43.500 --> 00:20:46.460 I had those in my bank, but I think you went 00:20:46.460 --> 00:20:49.819 with a perfect song going with give it all. And 00:20:49.819 --> 00:20:53.039 I'm going to I'm feeling this 2000s punk vibe 00:20:53.039 --> 00:20:55.259 we got going here. So I'm going to stay in this 00:20:55.259 --> 00:20:59.720 vibe and I'm going to stay in 2006 because along 00:20:59.720 --> 00:21:02.700 with the sufferer and the witness from Rise Against, 00:21:02.799 --> 00:21:06.460 I also had a New Jersey band represented from 00:21:06.460 --> 00:21:10.500 the same year. And I am going to go with. Another 00:21:10.500 --> 00:21:13.660 group you and I talked about on episode 65, the 00:21:13.660 --> 00:21:16.640 Tony Hawk Soundtracks episode, and I also talked 00:21:16.640 --> 00:21:20.119 about on episode 10, the ultimate 2000s punk 00:21:20.119 --> 00:21:23.339 rock playlist, and that is the Bouncing Souls. 00:21:24.059 --> 00:21:26.700 Now, I'm going to go with a different song than 00:21:26.700 --> 00:21:29.140 I talked about on those other episodes, and I'm 00:21:29.140 --> 00:21:30.940 not going to spoil what that song is. I'm going 00:21:30.940 --> 00:21:34.240 to leave it floating. in the punk rock atmosphere. 00:21:34.599 --> 00:21:36.720 So if you want to go back and find out if you're 00:21:36.720 --> 00:21:39.099 a Bouncing Souls fan, you'll have to do that. 00:21:39.180 --> 00:21:42.920 But I'm going to go with the quasi -title from 00:21:42.920 --> 00:21:46.640 their 2006 album, The Gold Record, and I'm going 00:21:46.640 --> 00:21:49.720 to go with The Gold Song. You're going to hear 00:21:49.720 --> 00:21:53.119 that bottle jingling on the ground before the 00:21:53.119 --> 00:21:56.079 song kicks in. The album was actually released, 00:21:56.180 --> 00:22:01.140 I'll never forget this, on June 6th, 2006, which 00:22:01.140 --> 00:22:05.259 was six... six, six, which the band referred 00:22:05.259 --> 00:22:09.619 to this album as the release of the beast, little 00:22:09.619 --> 00:22:13.579 nod to iron maiden there. This song, if you think 00:22:13.579 --> 00:22:15.480 we were calming down a little bit during, give 00:22:15.480 --> 00:22:18.559 it all, this is going to get you going back up 00:22:18.559 --> 00:22:22.039 to full throttle. This is. kind of the interval 00:22:22.039 --> 00:22:24.440 workout we're doing here and we're going to kick 00:22:24.440 --> 00:22:26.900 it up to 10 and you're going to be chanting the 00:22:26.900 --> 00:22:29.819 haze along with the band and getting that heart 00:22:29.819 --> 00:22:32.519 rate up because this song just every time it 00:22:32.519 --> 00:22:35.700 comes on, even if I'm tired, it gets my adrenaline 00:22:35.700 --> 00:22:38.039 going. It gets me excited. It makes me happy. 00:22:38.180 --> 00:22:41.160 It makes me want to work out more. It definitely 00:22:41.160 --> 00:22:44.500 kicks the adrenaline up a notch for me. So bouncing 00:22:44.500 --> 00:22:48.150 souls, the gold song, which Perfect, perfect 00:22:48.150 --> 00:22:50.769 pick for it. And I love the Bouncing Souls. I 00:22:50.769 --> 00:22:52.849 was going to say Comet is one of my favorite 00:22:52.849 --> 00:22:56.450 songs altogether. It's just such a great song. 00:22:56.549 --> 00:22:58.470 And the ending guitar riff in Comet is fantastic. 00:22:58.609 --> 00:23:01.730 But the gold song, a great, great, great song. 00:23:02.210 --> 00:23:06.289 But we want to keep rolling. And what better 00:23:06.289 --> 00:23:10.789 than do this with Blink -182? But I'm going to 00:23:10.789 --> 00:23:14.490 go old Blink -182 talking Dude Ranch. So before 00:23:14.490 --> 00:23:17.930 Travis Barker. When Scott was still in the band 00:23:17.930 --> 00:23:21.210 and I'm not going to go with Damn It. That's 00:23:21.210 --> 00:23:23.690 not what I want to do. Everybody loves that song. 00:23:24.069 --> 00:23:27.769 I am going to go with Josie. Josie to me is just 00:23:27.769 --> 00:23:31.309 a punk rock song through and through fast paced. 00:23:31.309 --> 00:23:35.069 Let's go. Here's the lyrics. And the music video 00:23:35.069 --> 00:23:37.769 always cracks me up. I was going to say Mark's 00:23:37.769 --> 00:23:40.329 got purple hair and I believe Tom has orange 00:23:40.329 --> 00:23:42.849 or red hair in the music video. I mean, it's 00:23:42.849 --> 00:23:46.099 straight. 90s punk before they really, really 00:23:46.099 --> 00:23:49.079 made it big in who they were. And it's probably 00:23:49.079 --> 00:23:52.759 my favorite Blink -182 song to this day. This 00:23:52.759 --> 00:23:55.180 was the last single that featured Scott Rayner 00:23:55.180 --> 00:23:59.420 for Blink -182. I got to admit, Travis Barker 00:23:59.420 --> 00:24:01.920 holds it down when he plays it live, but this 00:24:01.920 --> 00:24:04.519 is a classic Blink song. It actually reached 00:24:04.519 --> 00:24:07.240 number 50 on the US Alternative Radio and Records 00:24:07.240 --> 00:24:11.319 chart and number 31 on the Australia ARIA chart. 00:24:12.109 --> 00:24:15.869 So this one actually helped pave the way for 00:24:15.869 --> 00:24:18.970 Enema of the State. And I don't think, just like 00:24:18.970 --> 00:24:21.569 I mentioned with Rise Against, I don't think 00:24:21.569 --> 00:24:25.589 you get to Enema of the State if Dammit and Josie 00:24:25.589 --> 00:24:29.150 don't hit. Because Cheshire Cat in 95 didn't 00:24:29.150 --> 00:24:32.230 make much of a dent. This was kind of the start 00:24:32.230 --> 00:24:35.849 of what would become Blink -182's kind of legacy, 00:24:36.069 --> 00:24:39.710 at least in terms of mainstream success. A hundred 00:24:39.710 --> 00:24:42.359 percent. I mean, They had Eminem's off the first 00:24:42.359 --> 00:24:45.500 album and it wasn't a huge hit. But if you watch 00:24:45.500 --> 00:24:47.940 the music video, I believe Alyssa Milano is also 00:24:47.940 --> 00:24:50.619 in the Josie music video, too, which was a huge 00:24:50.619 --> 00:24:53.900 name at the time in the mid to late 90s, which 00:24:53.900 --> 00:24:57.259 kind of brought them mainstream popularity. They 00:24:57.259 --> 00:25:00.539 were getting on MTV and they were 120 minutes 00:25:00.539 --> 00:25:04.099 back in the day they would be on. So that's exactly 00:25:04.099 --> 00:25:07.119 what helped them. And I think kind of robbing 00:25:07.119 --> 00:25:09.420 Travis from the Aquabats also kind of helped. 00:25:09.500 --> 00:25:11.519 I mean, he's still in the band. How many years 00:25:11.519 --> 00:25:14.920 later? So that worked out for the best. You know, 00:25:14.920 --> 00:25:18.940 Scott left and they robbed Travis. So I was going 00:25:18.940 --> 00:25:21.799 to say bravo on the way to include Travis with 00:25:21.799 --> 00:25:24.079 the transplants, but not with your blink pic. 00:25:24.460 --> 00:25:27.779 Very ingenious way of playlisting there, my friend. 00:25:28.200 --> 00:25:31.440 Very much so. I've learned from the best. Well, 00:25:31.539 --> 00:25:33.960 you went with Blink -182. So I think the only 00:25:33.960 --> 00:25:36.740 logical follow -up is going to be, I'm going 00:25:36.740 --> 00:25:41.099 to go back to my Pop Sucks tour of 2002. You 00:25:41.099 --> 00:25:44.299 went Blink. I'm going to go with Green Day. Although 00:25:44.299 --> 00:25:47.940 you went with an album where Blink was going 00:25:47.940 --> 00:25:50.980 into the mainstream, I'm going to go with the 00:25:50.980 --> 00:25:53.460 album where Green Day said F the mainstream. 00:25:54.559 --> 00:25:57.259 And believe it or not, is my favorite Green Day 00:25:57.259 --> 00:26:01.680 album. I'm going to go off of 1995's Insomniac 00:26:01.680 --> 00:26:04.500 and I'm not even going to go with Brain Stew 00:26:04.500 --> 00:26:07.079 or Geek Stink Breath or Walking Contradiction. 00:26:07.619 --> 00:26:10.319 I'm going to go with a deep cut from this album. 00:26:10.400 --> 00:26:15.480 So their most raw, not pop friendly album and 00:26:15.480 --> 00:26:18.819 one of the deepest cuts from it, Babs' Uvula 00:26:18.819 --> 00:26:22.599 Who, which is a reference to an old Saturday 00:26:22.599 --> 00:26:26.589 Night Live skit. It's one of my favorite Green 00:26:26.589 --> 00:26:29.130 Day songs of all time. Definitely falls into 00:26:29.130 --> 00:26:32.170 the underrated category because according to 00:26:32.170 --> 00:26:35.710 the Green Day Live Guide, it's only been played 00:26:35.710 --> 00:26:41.190 once, November 3rd, 1995 at the Worcester Memorial 00:26:41.190 --> 00:26:44.789 Auditorium in Worcester, Massachusetts. Those 00:26:44.789 --> 00:26:47.130 guys got lucky because this is one of my all 00:26:47.130 --> 00:26:50.170 -time favorite Green Day songs. And this year 00:26:50.170 --> 00:26:55.269 in 2024, they did the... dookie american idiot 00:26:55.269 --> 00:26:59.289 in its entirety i have my fingers crossed that 00:26:59.289 --> 00:27:03.349 1995 sees insomniac in its entirety because i 00:27:03.349 --> 00:27:07.170 think a lot of people don't realize the brilliance 00:27:07.170 --> 00:27:13.609 of this raw unfiltered against pop punk release 00:27:13.609 --> 00:27:16.349 from green day it's definitely their angriest 00:27:16.349 --> 00:27:19.509 album of all time and i think a fun way to close 00:27:19.509 --> 00:27:22.539 out side a Oh, yeah. I mean, it's definitely 00:27:22.539 --> 00:27:25.539 one of their most underrated albums. I was going 00:27:25.539 --> 00:27:28.200 to say that Nimrod, everybody just kind of pushes 00:27:28.200 --> 00:27:30.740 to the side and says, oh, well, you know, it's 00:27:30.740 --> 00:27:32.779 not American Idiot. It's not Dookie. Why are 00:27:32.779 --> 00:27:37.279 we listening to it? It has some very, very raw, 00:27:37.440 --> 00:27:40.400 like California punk sound that people don't 00:27:40.400 --> 00:27:42.880 hear from Green Day often. And I'm not a Green 00:27:42.880 --> 00:27:45.660 Day fan. I mean, I appreciate them. They're great 00:27:45.660 --> 00:27:47.720 for the music, but I've never been into them. 00:27:48.200 --> 00:27:52.009 But that album. Sounds like an old black flag 00:27:52.009 --> 00:27:55.690 or an adolescence album from 10 years prior coming 00:27:55.690 --> 00:27:58.910 out of the Bay Area or California punk scene. 00:27:59.049 --> 00:28:02.190 I mean, it's got that feel to it. And if you 00:28:02.190 --> 00:28:06.230 are a fan of 80s California punk, that is the 00:28:06.230 --> 00:28:09.609 Green Day album. I would push at you 100%. It 00:28:09.609 --> 00:28:12.390 is the Green Day album. I push at anybody who 00:28:12.390 --> 00:28:16.039 says, where should I start with Green Day? A 00:28:16.039 --> 00:28:18.059 lot of people look at me like I have 10 heads 00:28:18.059 --> 00:28:20.500 because they go, why not American Idiot and Dookie? 00:28:20.599 --> 00:28:22.900 I said, well, that's those are the obvious picks. 00:28:23.240 --> 00:28:25.700 If I'm going to push something forward, I want 00:28:25.700 --> 00:28:27.640 to push one that might be less than obvious, 00:28:27.720 --> 00:28:31.559 because if you dig Insomniac, you might become 00:28:31.559 --> 00:28:35.160 a bigger Green Day fan outside of Dookie and 00:28:35.160 --> 00:28:38.119 American Idiot. 100 percent. And I was going 00:28:38.119 --> 00:28:40.299 to say it goes the way with their later catalog, 00:28:40.500 --> 00:28:44.400 too, when they did the Uno Dos Tres albums. And 00:28:44.400 --> 00:28:46.420 like the 21 Guns album, stuff like that, that 00:28:46.420 --> 00:28:48.859 was somewhat mainstream, but didn't really take 00:28:48.859 --> 00:28:52.480 off like American Idiot or Duty. And that, mixtapers, 00:28:52.519 --> 00:28:55.700 concludes side A of the ultimate punk rock workout 00:28:55.700 --> 00:28:58.819 mixtape, which consists of smut peddlers buck 00:28:58.819 --> 00:29:01.259 naked on a big wheel. Don't try this at home. 00:29:01.920 --> 00:29:04.720 Descendants, bikeage. Dead Kennedys, pull my 00:29:04.720 --> 00:29:08.799 strings. Bad religions, recipe for hate. Transplants, 00:29:08.920 --> 00:29:12.220 tall cans in the air. Hot water musics, trusty 00:29:12.220 --> 00:29:15.759 chords. Rise Against's Give It All, Bouncing 00:29:15.759 --> 00:29:19.980 Soul's The Gold Song, Blink -182's Josie, and 00:29:19.980 --> 00:29:24.279 Green Day's Babs' Uvula Who. Head over to myweeklymixtape 00:29:24.279 --> 00:29:26.759 .com to hear all the songs we've discussed in 00:29:26.759 --> 00:29:29.920 this mix through the playlist embedded on the 00:29:29.920 --> 00:29:33.099 episode page. All right, and now we're going 00:29:33.099 --> 00:29:36.279 to kick off Side B, and I think I'm going to 00:29:36.279 --> 00:29:40.359 do so in classic style here. I'm going to go 00:29:40.359 --> 00:29:42.619 with a song that I absolutely loved in middle 00:29:42.619 --> 00:29:46.640 school all the way up through right this very 00:29:46.640 --> 00:29:51.319 moment. It's this band's cover of a Johnny Cash 00:29:51.319 --> 00:29:54.559 classic, which is, in my humble opinion, one 00:29:54.559 --> 00:29:57.720 of the best cover songs ever from their 1990 00:29:57.720 --> 00:30:02.079 self -titled album and their 2007 greatest hits 00:30:02.079 --> 00:30:05.000 album, that version being a rerecording. I am 00:30:05.000 --> 00:30:07.279 going to go with Social Distortion's incredible 00:30:07.279 --> 00:30:12.349 cover. of Johnny Cash's Ring of Fire, reached 00:30:12.349 --> 00:30:15.309 number 25 on the Billboard U .S. Alternative 00:30:15.309 --> 00:30:19.049 Airplay chart. And there's a chance, a small 00:30:19.049 --> 00:30:22.210 chance. We also discussed this song on episode 00:30:22.210 --> 00:30:26.250 26, the ultimate punk rock cover songs playlist, 00:30:26.329 --> 00:30:29.769 because like I said, one of the best cover songs 00:30:29.769 --> 00:30:35.210 ever. And it's punk, so yeah. But Social Distortion, 00:30:35.250 --> 00:30:38.519 man, this is one of those covers that... If you're 00:30:38.519 --> 00:30:41.539 going to cover Johnny Cash, you better do it 00:30:41.539 --> 00:30:44.740 right. And Mike Ness knocked this one out of 00:30:44.740 --> 00:30:48.720 the park where even fans of Johnny Cash respect 00:30:48.720 --> 00:30:51.859 this version. And that's hard to do because Johnny 00:30:51.859 --> 00:30:55.759 Cash is an outlaw as much as the punk rock genre 00:30:55.759 --> 00:30:58.920 is in and of itself. And Social Distortion was 00:30:58.920 --> 00:31:02.200 able to put their stamp on this song and still 00:31:02.200 --> 00:31:05.700 respect the original. 100%. And Mike Ness is 00:31:05.700 --> 00:31:08.779 just such a genius. And when you think of lead 00:31:08.779 --> 00:31:11.759 singers and punk music, he's one of the first 00:31:11.759 --> 00:31:14.819 ones that come to mind. But I'm going to do something 00:31:14.819 --> 00:31:17.299 with my next pick. You know, punk rock's all 00:31:17.299 --> 00:31:20.460 about symbols. You know, bands that have symbols. 00:31:20.579 --> 00:31:23.400 Misfits has the ghost skull. Social Distortion 00:31:23.400 --> 00:31:26.880 has the skeleton. And the next band, Black Flag, 00:31:27.140 --> 00:31:29.640 has its own little logo of four little black 00:31:29.640 --> 00:31:33.089 bars. And I am going to go with my personal favorite 00:31:33.089 --> 00:31:37.789 Black Flag song of 1984, Slip It In, Drinking 00:31:37.789 --> 00:31:41.349 and Driving. This was used in Jackass when Henry 00:31:41.349 --> 00:31:43.789 Rollins drives around and Steve -O gets a tattoo. 00:31:44.369 --> 00:31:48.349 It is fast -paced. It makes you angry. And it 00:31:48.349 --> 00:31:50.769 has a good message because it's not about drinking 00:31:50.769 --> 00:31:53.829 and driving. It's about not doing it, but how 00:31:53.829 --> 00:31:57.089 pretty much peer pressure will get you in a bad 00:31:57.089 --> 00:32:00.700 spot every time. It's a fun song. Rollins has 00:32:00.700 --> 00:32:03.440 a great time singing it when he does it by himself, 00:32:03.559 --> 00:32:07.000 when he was doing it with Black Flag. It is high 00:32:07.000 --> 00:32:11.000 energy and it brings that punk rock sound right 00:32:11.000 --> 00:32:13.380 out of Social Distortion. And I know how much 00:32:13.380 --> 00:32:16.940 you love cover songs. So it turns the tide a 00:32:16.940 --> 00:32:19.779 little bit and gets us back on the path. While 00:32:19.779 --> 00:32:23.059 drinking, of course, apparently. Yes. I love 00:32:23.059 --> 00:32:25.839 this song. I immediately thought of the jackass 00:32:25.839 --> 00:32:27.759 scene as soon as you said the title of the track. 00:32:27.759 --> 00:32:30.420 So I'm glad you mentioned that. And like you 00:32:30.420 --> 00:32:32.279 said, I want to hit on a point you made. It's 00:32:32.279 --> 00:32:35.420 interesting, the delivery of this song. And only 00:32:35.420 --> 00:32:38.619 Henry Rollins can do it this way. Because lyrically, 00:32:38.720 --> 00:32:41.339 it almost sounds like a let's get drunk and wasted 00:32:41.339 --> 00:32:46.980 punk rock song. But it's not that. And it's not 00:32:46.980 --> 00:32:51.500 a straight edge don't drink song. It's somewhere 00:32:51.500 --> 00:32:54.819 in the gray area that lives between the two. 00:32:55.039 --> 00:32:57.920 And I think that's the genius of Henry Rollins. 00:32:58.880 --> 00:33:02.160 100%. And if you do listen to that Slip It In 00:33:02.160 --> 00:33:04.839 album, there's many songs like that where you're 00:33:04.839 --> 00:33:07.660 just like, what are they telling me? Are they 00:33:07.660 --> 00:33:10.240 telling me one thing or another? And the title 00:33:10.240 --> 00:33:12.920 track from that album is a perfect example. It's 00:33:12.920 --> 00:33:16.559 a fun album no matter what, but Rollins' delivery 00:33:16.559 --> 00:33:21.339 is what makes that song so iconic and so... Well, 00:33:22.039 --> 00:33:25.440 we've got two incredibly influential bands to 00:33:25.440 --> 00:33:28.720 start off side B, Social Distortion and Black 00:33:28.720 --> 00:33:30.900 Flag. So I think I'm going to keep running with 00:33:30.900 --> 00:33:33.900 that and go with another extremely influential 00:33:33.900 --> 00:33:38.339 band and song. Now, this song was never released 00:33:38.339 --> 00:33:41.819 as a single, but it remains this band's probably 00:33:41.819 --> 00:33:45.240 most beloved and well -known quote unquote hit. 00:33:45.380 --> 00:33:48.220 And it was covered by everybody from the Red 00:33:48.220 --> 00:33:52.259 Hot Chili Peppers. to Ryan Adams, the Dead Milkmen, 00:33:52.480 --> 00:33:55.519 Mustard Plug, and a band you mentioned earlier, 00:33:55.839 --> 00:34:00.220 Rancid. This song was inspired by Ian McKay's 00:34:00.220 --> 00:34:04.099 short -lived project, Embrace, and not wanting 00:34:04.099 --> 00:34:08.079 the same thing to happen with Fugazi, he wrote 00:34:08.079 --> 00:34:11.920 the song Waiting Room about finding the right 00:34:11.920 --> 00:34:16.280 people at the right moment. And this song, the 00:34:16.280 --> 00:34:20.969 opening, is so intense between this baseline 00:34:20.969 --> 00:34:24.829 that doesn't know if it wants to be a funk baseline 00:34:24.829 --> 00:34:28.570 or a punk baseline. But it's one of those baselines 00:34:28.570 --> 00:34:30.789 that as soon as you hear it, you're immediately 00:34:30.789 --> 00:34:34.369 sucked in. And for 20 seconds, the song just 00:34:34.369 --> 00:34:38.369 builds. And then at the 20 second mark, it pauses 00:34:38.369 --> 00:34:42.510 for four seconds of silence. And then after that 00:34:42.510 --> 00:34:45.210 uncomfortable moment, it brings you right back 00:34:45.210 --> 00:34:50.750 in. It's so powerful. It's been featured on Pitchfork's 00:34:50.750 --> 00:34:55.829 200 Best Songs of the 1980s, Blender's The 1001 00:34:55.829 --> 00:35:00.190 Greatest Songs to Download Right Now, Pop Matter's 00:35:00.190 --> 00:35:03.750 The 100 Greatest Alternative Singles of the 1980s, 00:35:03.750 --> 00:35:11.030 and NME's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. I know 00:35:11.030 --> 00:35:14.369 it's the obvious on -the -nose pick for Fugazi, 00:35:14.550 --> 00:35:18.829 but I'm a bass player. What can I say? That bass 00:35:18.829 --> 00:35:21.750 line is punk rock royalty as far as I'm concerned. 00:35:22.429 --> 00:35:25.090 Oh, you hear the first two notes of that song 00:35:25.090 --> 00:35:28.250 and you instantly know what it is. And it got 00:35:28.250 --> 00:35:31.949 so bad with this song that my detailer, when 00:35:31.949 --> 00:35:33.710 I worked in the car dealership as a mechanic, 00:35:33.909 --> 00:35:37.170 he would play it every day and I knew how long 00:35:37.170 --> 00:35:39.849 the song was going to take. I would walk up and 00:35:39.849 --> 00:35:43.329 get coffee every morning because I got so tired 00:35:43.329 --> 00:35:48.500 of hearing that bass line. Oh, man. Hey, I love 00:35:48.500 --> 00:35:51.619 it now. But when you hear it every day for three 00:35:51.619 --> 00:35:54.920 years, you're like, I am done. I don't care anymore. 00:35:55.079 --> 00:35:57.780 I don't care if I hear another Fugazi song ever. 00:35:58.300 --> 00:36:03.340 But going off incredible bass lines, guitar riffs, 00:36:03.480 --> 00:36:06.980 I am going to make a pick here that is probably 00:36:06.980 --> 00:36:09.159 going to get you some hate mail here, Brian. 00:36:09.320 --> 00:36:13.360 Oh, no. I don't know. This band is a pop punk 00:36:13.360 --> 00:36:18.559 metal -ish band. and to me, I would consider 00:36:18.559 --> 00:36:21.400 them pop punk, and the band is A Day to Remember. 00:36:21.780 --> 00:36:24.320 Okay. This comes off for those who have heart, 00:36:24.400 --> 00:36:27.679 and it is the heavy guitar riff, The Plot to 00:36:27.679 --> 00:36:31.260 Bomb the Panhandle. Now, this is a song that 00:36:31.260 --> 00:36:34.420 I listen to every time I get ready for a hockey 00:36:34.420 --> 00:36:37.360 game, I work out, I'm just driving in the car, 00:36:37.420 --> 00:36:41.519 and I'm angry. The riff to it is so heavy, and 00:36:41.519 --> 00:36:45.059 it feels punk -ish. And it's just got a good 00:36:45.059 --> 00:36:49.079 rhythm and pushback to it where I feel like it 00:36:49.079 --> 00:36:52.079 fits really well off Fugazi with that bass riff. 00:36:52.300 --> 00:36:55.719 You can tell me I'm wrong, but I think it works 00:36:55.719 --> 00:36:59.320 really well. And it's just a fun, very heavy 00:36:59.320 --> 00:37:02.980 song from a band that has gone away from being 00:37:02.980 --> 00:37:05.800 as heavy as they used to be. Yeah. This album 00:37:05.800 --> 00:37:07.980 is definitely a different beast than some of 00:37:07.980 --> 00:37:10.960 their newer stuff, but this album actually reached 00:37:10.960 --> 00:37:13.880 number 17 on the billboard top heat seekers chart. 00:37:14.059 --> 00:37:17.360 And then the re -release of it hit number 43 00:37:17.360 --> 00:37:20.480 on the billboard top independent albums chart. 00:37:21.039 --> 00:37:23.679 And that is due to the fact that they put out 00:37:23.679 --> 00:37:26.880 a cover of Kelly Clarkson's since you've been 00:37:26.880 --> 00:37:30.300 gone from that re -release. And you know what? 00:37:30.500 --> 00:37:32.559 I think I'm going to have a little fun with this. 00:37:32.619 --> 00:37:35.090 No, I'm not going to go with. There since you've 00:37:35.090 --> 00:37:38.230 been gone cover, although I love it. I'm going 00:37:38.230 --> 00:37:41.409 to go with another cover song for this side. 00:37:41.489 --> 00:37:44.349 Yes, I already did social distortions ring a 00:37:44.349 --> 00:37:46.590 fire, but I'm going to go with another punk band 00:37:46.590 --> 00:37:51.650 covering a female pop song, but I'm going to 00:37:51.650 --> 00:37:56.789 go back to their 2001 album go. And Jay sweet. 00:37:56.849 --> 00:37:59.670 And I talked about this song all the way back 00:37:59.670 --> 00:38:03.599 on episode 10. the ultimate 2000s punk rock playlist. 00:38:03.980 --> 00:38:06.960 And we are going to go with, is it punk? Is it 00:38:06.960 --> 00:38:09.340 hardcore? It's a little bit of both. The hidden 00:38:09.340 --> 00:38:14.480 track, H2O's Like a Prayer, the Madonna cover. 00:38:15.440 --> 00:38:20.840 This cover is again, one of my absolute favorites 00:38:20.840 --> 00:38:23.800 because I'm not going to lie. I know this is 00:38:23.800 --> 00:38:26.800 a punk rock episode. I actually love Madonna's 00:38:26.800 --> 00:38:29.960 original Like a Prayer. I always love the song. 00:38:30.019 --> 00:38:32.079 I love the video. I love everything about it. 00:38:32.179 --> 00:38:36.679 The song is catchy. The song is a pop anthem 00:38:36.679 --> 00:38:40.579 of the 90s. Taking it and turning it into a punk 00:38:40.579 --> 00:38:44.880 rock hardcore song on paper doesn't sound like 00:38:44.880 --> 00:38:48.760 it could work, but it works. so, so well. I'm 00:38:48.760 --> 00:38:51.980 shocked more bands have not taken this song and 00:38:51.980 --> 00:38:55.099 put their stamp on it. And I just love the fact 00:38:55.099 --> 00:38:57.820 that we get to sneak a band like H2O in this 00:38:57.820 --> 00:39:01.039 mix because as much as I love them being from 00:39:01.039 --> 00:39:03.719 the New Jersey, New York area, I feel like the 00:39:03.719 --> 00:39:05.559 rest of the country and maybe the rest of the 00:39:05.559 --> 00:39:08.920 world isn't as familiar with H2O as they should 00:39:08.920 --> 00:39:11.880 be. So I'm hoping by putting this on there, more 00:39:11.880 --> 00:39:13.960 people get to go down a rabbit hole and discover 00:39:13.960 --> 00:39:16.519 them because this is one group that I think is 00:39:16.519 --> 00:39:20.860 just, Insanely underrated. Listen, if it wasn't 00:39:20.860 --> 00:39:23.420 for you, I would have never heard this song. 00:39:23.559 --> 00:39:27.639 And I love, love, love, love this version. And 00:39:27.639 --> 00:39:30.119 it's thanks to your podcast I heard it. But Like 00:39:30.119 --> 00:39:33.280 a Prayer, one of my favorite Madonna songs. It's 00:39:33.280 --> 00:39:37.300 my go -to karaoke song. And I am so glad you 00:39:37.300 --> 00:39:40.860 included this because the H2O cover is phenomenal. 00:39:41.159 --> 00:39:44.639 And they have a whole album of covers that are 00:39:44.639 --> 00:39:47.869 just... insanely good and i know the one that 00:39:47.869 --> 00:39:51.269 gets a lot of flack is there i want to live ramones 00:39:51.269 --> 00:39:54.449 cover people dog it every time but i actually 00:39:54.449 --> 00:39:57.369 enjoy it being it's you know one of the better 00:39:57.369 --> 00:40:00.449 songs that the ramones did in that period but 00:40:00.449 --> 00:40:04.090 h2o does a great job and it's just a great song 00:40:04.090 --> 00:40:06.869 so thank you for including that one brian had 00:40:06.869 --> 00:40:10.469 to revisit it it needed to be done oh it's so 00:40:10.469 --> 00:40:14.179 good Well, I am going to go with another song 00:40:14.179 --> 00:40:19.539 to me that it has a lot of energy. It's a very, 00:40:19.579 --> 00:40:22.119 very near and dear song to me, and it's from 00:40:22.119 --> 00:40:25.360 the band Legwagon. And I know Legwagon gets a 00:40:25.360 --> 00:40:29.579 lot of love or hate, but I am going to go with 00:40:29.579 --> 00:40:34.000 Know It All. Now, this song to me, growing up, 00:40:34.000 --> 00:40:37.849 I played the NCAA video games. And there was 00:40:37.849 --> 00:40:40.190 one year they had a soundtrack and they picked 00:40:40.190 --> 00:40:44.909 a killer soundtrack with Lagwagon, Therapy, NoFX, 00:40:45.030 --> 00:40:47.769 tons of great punk bands and got me really into 00:40:47.769 --> 00:40:51.190 the music. And this song was on that soundtrack. 00:40:51.409 --> 00:40:55.190 And it has been a staple for almost 20 plus years 00:40:55.190 --> 00:40:59.070 of me listening to. It's fast paced. It's fun. 00:40:59.309 --> 00:41:04.239 It brings me back nostalgia as being a kid. To 00:41:04.239 --> 00:41:07.400 me, I think Legwagon is a super underrated band. 00:41:07.579 --> 00:41:10.320 I think Hoss as an album is one of their better 00:41:10.320 --> 00:41:12.960 albums. Granted, the song is not off that album, 00:41:13.059 --> 00:41:16.699 but go listen if you haven't to Hoss through 00:41:16.699 --> 00:41:21.059 and through and your views will change on Legwagon 00:41:21.059 --> 00:41:23.820 and punk music. This is actually your right from 00:41:23.820 --> 00:41:28.739 1994's Trashed album. I love this one. I love 00:41:28.739 --> 00:41:33.070 the message. Know it all. Did you really listen 00:41:33.070 --> 00:41:36.670 to that song? Could you ever write what you call 00:41:36.670 --> 00:41:43.210 wrong? Right being W -R -I -T -E. Not right, 00:41:43.309 --> 00:41:47.989 R -I -G -H -T. Brilliant lyrics about following 00:41:47.989 --> 00:41:51.150 a band until they make it big. This band can 00:41:51.150 --> 00:41:54.650 finally pay their rent, not travel around in 00:41:54.650 --> 00:41:57.809 a van with a busted up cot in the back of it. 00:41:58.010 --> 00:42:01.070 Finally get to be able to make some money. with 00:42:01.070 --> 00:42:03.889 music as your career only to be called sellouts 00:42:03.889 --> 00:42:08.010 otherwise known as tall poppy syndrome in canada 00:42:08.010 --> 00:42:10.949 australia and new zealand for those of us in 00:42:10.949 --> 00:42:14.929 the u .s tall poppy syndrome is essentially attacking 00:42:14.929 --> 00:42:18.349 something simply based on its success and i'm 00:42:18.349 --> 00:42:21.849 sorry i could take this all the way back to metallica 00:42:21.849 --> 00:42:25.739 if you want to go metal anytime a band breaks 00:42:25.739 --> 00:42:27.900 into the mainstream. It's happened with Offspring, 00:42:28.079 --> 00:42:31.739 Green Day, Blink -182. All of these bands that 00:42:31.739 --> 00:42:36.780 found worldwide success got slagged at some point 00:42:36.780 --> 00:42:40.320 by their fans as almost being offended that they 00:42:40.320 --> 00:42:43.380 got to the next level. And I've never understood 00:42:43.380 --> 00:42:46.380 that because if a band doesn't get to the next 00:42:46.380 --> 00:42:48.500 level, there's not a chance that that band will 00:42:48.500 --> 00:42:50.940 be around in the future because they might not 00:42:50.940 --> 00:42:55.119 be able to afford to be around. So this song, 00:42:55.469 --> 00:42:58.550 Just nails that message. And I love the pic. 00:42:58.869 --> 00:43:01.769 A hundred percent. I mean, even Alice in Chains 00:43:01.769 --> 00:43:04.989 dog Metallica for cutting their hair. So other 00:43:04.989 --> 00:43:09.230 bands dog other bands. Well, following up Lagwagon, 00:43:09.289 --> 00:43:11.210 I'm going to go with another song that might 00:43:11.210 --> 00:43:15.769 catch some flack because this song created a 00:43:15.769 --> 00:43:19.570 rift between the band that I'm about to choose, 00:43:19.789 --> 00:43:23.289 which was mentioned by one of our Patreon mixtapers. 00:43:23.820 --> 00:43:27.019 And a song, Tom, by a band that you picked, Rise 00:43:27.019 --> 00:43:30.760 Against. And the song I'm going to choose is 00:43:30.760 --> 00:43:34.500 by Against Me. Shout out once again to Patreon 00:43:34.500 --> 00:43:38.019 mixtaper Sean Goff, who chimed in with Transgender 00:43:38.019 --> 00:43:41.340 Dysphoria Blues, which is an awesome tune. I 00:43:41.340 --> 00:43:44.960 love it. But coming out of Lagwagon, I got to 00:43:44.960 --> 00:43:48.440 go with I Was a Teenage Anarchist off of 2010's 00:43:48.440 --> 00:43:52.280 White Crosses. I think it hits perfectly in this 00:43:52.280 --> 00:43:55.980 spot with no disrespect to Sean's pick. I love 00:43:55.980 --> 00:43:59.920 it. Garbage's Butch Vig produced this song and 00:43:59.920 --> 00:44:02.559 it shows in the production of the album. I love 00:44:02.559 --> 00:44:05.960 Butch Vig's production work. I mean, you hear 00:44:05.960 --> 00:44:08.820 it on Nirvana's Nevermind. You hear it on the 00:44:08.820 --> 00:44:12.059 Foo Fighters' Wasting Light. Against Me sounds 00:44:12.059 --> 00:44:16.420 incredible on this album and White Cross's as 00:44:16.420 --> 00:44:19.389 a whole. I'm probably going to catch flack for 00:44:19.389 --> 00:44:21.929 this too. Might be my favorite against me album, 00:44:22.030 --> 00:44:25.289 but the riff that it caused was because of the 00:44:25.289 --> 00:44:28.050 lyrics. Do you remember when you were young and 00:44:28.050 --> 00:44:32.150 you wanted to set the world on fire in 2011 on 00:44:32.150 --> 00:44:36.309 rise against track architects, they expanded 00:44:36.309 --> 00:44:39.150 on those lyrics saying, do you remember when 00:44:39.150 --> 00:44:40.949 you were young and you wanted to set the world 00:44:40.949 --> 00:44:45.170 on fire somewhere deep down? I know you do. Do 00:44:45.170 --> 00:44:47.010 you remember when you were young and you wanted 00:44:47.010 --> 00:44:50.309 to set the world on fire? Well, I still am. And 00:44:50.309 --> 00:44:53.050 I still do. So there was a little bit of a punk 00:44:53.050 --> 00:44:55.309 rock riff going on between these two bands. But 00:44:55.309 --> 00:44:57.949 regardless, I think we got a lot of kick ass 00:44:57.949 --> 00:45:01.250 music out of it. Whatever side you're on. Hundred 00:45:01.250 --> 00:45:04.070 percent. You scoot me on against me. So what 00:45:04.070 --> 00:45:06.210 I had from them was a call to enemies. That's 00:45:06.210 --> 00:45:08.590 my favorite against me. Another good pick. But. 00:45:09.130 --> 00:45:11.610 You know, it's hard to pick which side you want 00:45:11.610 --> 00:45:13.969 to be on with Rise Against Against Me because 00:45:13.969 --> 00:45:17.309 I love both bands very much and they do a great 00:45:17.309 --> 00:45:20.909 job. But I'm going to kick it back a little bit 00:45:20.909 --> 00:45:24.690 because there's one band that I kind of noted 00:45:24.690 --> 00:45:27.210 on when we talked about H2O's cover and that 00:45:27.210 --> 00:45:31.460 was the Ramones. Ah, I. Personally love this 00:45:31.460 --> 00:45:33.599 song. School of Rock made me fall in love with 00:45:33.599 --> 00:45:36.000 this song. And that's Bonzo Goes to Bitford. 00:45:36.519 --> 00:45:39.699 Yes. It's about President Reagan. And I believe 00:45:39.699 --> 00:45:43.079 Joey Ramone wrote the song about being angry 00:45:43.079 --> 00:45:47.119 with Ronald Reagan. And it was re -released as 00:45:47.119 --> 00:45:49.800 My Head is Hanging Upside Down or something along 00:45:49.800 --> 00:45:52.619 those lines because they didn't want to keep 00:45:52.619 --> 00:45:55.599 throwing it out there at Reagan because it's 00:45:55.599 --> 00:45:58.349 kind of a slam against him. And when it was used 00:45:58.349 --> 00:46:00.349 in School of Rock, that's kind of when it started 00:46:00.349 --> 00:46:03.170 going by its old title. But it's just a great 00:46:03.170 --> 00:46:05.949 song. You have the chime in the heavy guitar 00:46:05.949 --> 00:46:08.590 riff, and it's something that I like to work 00:46:08.590 --> 00:46:11.329 out to. It's a good cool down song for me, and 00:46:11.329 --> 00:46:14.690 it gets me thinking about where I want to be 00:46:14.690 --> 00:46:17.230 at with this workout or how I want to play this 00:46:17.230 --> 00:46:19.690 hockey game. It's a very good mind setting song 00:46:19.690 --> 00:46:23.230 for me. I think you and I would be doing a disservice 00:46:23.230 --> 00:46:26.300 to punk rock. and to working out if we didn't 00:46:26.300 --> 00:46:30.280 include the Ramones on this list. I personally 00:46:30.280 --> 00:46:32.920 had, do you remember rock and roll radio in my 00:46:32.920 --> 00:46:37.239 bank of songs? Because I discovered, I kid you 00:46:37.239 --> 00:46:39.659 not, I discovered that song on one of my parents' 00:46:39.800 --> 00:46:43.739 old K -Tel albums called Rock 80. And it was 00:46:43.739 --> 00:46:46.219 one of my favorite songs as a kid. I used to 00:46:46.219 --> 00:46:48.940 stomp around the living room to do you remember 00:46:48.940 --> 00:46:52.599 rock and roll radio? One of my favorite Ramones 00:46:52.599 --> 00:46:55.980 songs ever. But Bonzo's another killer track 00:46:55.980 --> 00:46:58.880 and it keeps that same energy. Just, I don't 00:46:58.880 --> 00:47:01.400 know, minus the horn section, if you will. Yeah, 00:47:01.420 --> 00:47:03.739 very much. But you get, I don't know if it's 00:47:03.739 --> 00:47:06.420 a xylophone, but you get some kind of chiming 00:47:06.420 --> 00:47:08.619 in instead of horn. So yeah, there you go. You 00:47:08.619 --> 00:47:11.019 trade one for the other. Perfect. I'll take it. 00:47:11.219 --> 00:47:14.920 And now we're down to one pick each. And I'm 00:47:14.920 --> 00:47:19.079 really concerned right now because there's a 00:47:19.079 --> 00:47:21.760 song that I think should close out this playlist. 00:47:22.670 --> 00:47:27.130 especially because we're recording in 2024 and 00:47:27.130 --> 00:47:31.750 I want to pick it, but I just have a feeling 00:47:31.750 --> 00:47:33.969 because their name has popped up a couple of 00:47:33.969 --> 00:47:37.050 times in discussion tonight that I think you're 00:47:37.050 --> 00:47:39.670 going to be on the same wavelength as me. And 00:47:39.670 --> 00:47:42.469 I hope you are. If not, I'm going to take that 00:47:42.469 --> 00:47:45.630 risk and I'm going to pivot out of the Ramones 00:47:45.630 --> 00:47:48.349 because we haven't gotten any Irish punk into 00:47:48.349 --> 00:47:54.869 the mix. So I'm going to. go out in style with 00:47:54.869 --> 00:47:58.869 my last pick of the evening with Dropkick Murphy's 00:47:58.869 --> 00:48:04.510 2011 title track, Going Out in Style, which features 00:48:04.510 --> 00:48:13.050 Fat Mike from NoFX. Excuse me, had something 00:48:13.050 --> 00:48:15.650 in my throat there. Chris Cheney from The Living 00:48:15.650 --> 00:48:20.820 End and actor Lenny Clark in the vocals. This 00:48:20.820 --> 00:48:24.579 is a chorus that's a sing -along of epic proportions. 00:48:24.719 --> 00:48:27.980 A lot of Dropkick Murphy stuff is, but for a 00:48:27.980 --> 00:48:32.480 workout mix, going out in style just does that 00:48:32.480 --> 00:48:35.360 for me. I could really give a shit. I'm going 00:48:35.360 --> 00:48:38.280 out in style for my last pick of the evening, 00:48:38.400 --> 00:48:41.800 Dropkick Murphy's Baby. Ah, such a wonderful 00:48:41.800 --> 00:48:44.340 pick and such a wonderful band, a band that I 00:48:44.340 --> 00:48:48.610 have loved and loved for many years. But... Catching 00:48:48.610 --> 00:48:52.230 your drift and kind of reading your mind. Was 00:48:52.230 --> 00:48:56.550 I obvious with my hints? You were very, very 00:48:56.550 --> 00:48:59.929 clear, and I would never leave this band off 00:48:59.929 --> 00:49:03.130 a list. I knew I was going last, and I wanted 00:49:03.130 --> 00:49:06.449 to slam the door shut with no effects. These 00:49:06.449 --> 00:49:10.650 guys are leaving us to never tour again, in air 00:49:10.650 --> 00:49:12.789 quotes, because you know how Motley Crue did 00:49:12.789 --> 00:49:14.949 that multiple times. Yeah, I don't ever believe 00:49:14.949 --> 00:49:18.380 that. since it's some 41s doing it as well i 00:49:18.380 --> 00:49:21.920 don't believe it it's only a matter of time motley 00:49:21.920 --> 00:49:25.559 crew lincoln park i feel like even led zeppelin 00:49:25.559 --> 00:49:29.460 after many years did the 2007 reunion at the 00:49:29.460 --> 00:49:32.380 o2 i i in my heart i don't want to believe that 00:49:32.380 --> 00:49:36.000 it's the end of no effects so go no i will never 00:49:36.000 --> 00:49:41.900 never not love this song and it comes off 1994's 00:49:41.900 --> 00:49:46.929 punk and droveling It is linoleum. Yes. My absolute 00:49:46.929 --> 00:49:51.190 favorite song that no effects has done. And everybody's 00:49:51.190 --> 00:49:53.409 going to go, Oh, it's their most popular. It's 00:49:53.409 --> 00:49:56.590 the most popular for a reason. It's covered constantly. 00:49:56.630 --> 00:49:59.940 You go to YouTube. There's. 200 pages of linoleum 00:49:59.940 --> 00:50:03.739 covers. Even NoFX made a stab at it and made 00:50:03.739 --> 00:50:06.000 a music video during the pandemic with a bench 00:50:06.000 --> 00:50:08.659 sevenfold about how many bands have covered this 00:50:08.659 --> 00:50:12.820 song. It's a wild one. If you haven't seen it, 00:50:12.900 --> 00:50:15.719 it's a good one. And Streetlight Manifesto does 00:50:15.719 --> 00:50:18.219 the best cover, but the original will always 00:50:18.219 --> 00:50:22.079 stay near and dear to my heart. I love this song. 00:50:22.260 --> 00:50:24.840 I have sat and cried to this song. I have worked 00:50:24.840 --> 00:50:28.019 out to this song. I have enjoyed this song through 00:50:28.019 --> 00:50:31.659 and through, and I think this is the absolute 00:50:31.659 --> 00:50:35.800 best way to end this mixtape. And send Noah FX 00:50:35.800 --> 00:50:40.239 off with a thank you and a goodbye. Closing our 00:50:40.239 --> 00:50:42.940 playlist out with the opening track from Punk 00:50:42.940 --> 00:50:46.420 and Drublick, my closest friend. Guitar World 00:50:46.420 --> 00:50:48.699 actually ranks the Punk and Drublick album number 00:50:48.699 --> 00:50:52.559 four on the 51 Most Essential. pop punk albums 00:50:52.559 --> 00:50:55.599 of all time. And Kerrang! ranks at number six 00:50:55.599 --> 00:50:59.760 on their 51 greatest pop punk albums ever. One 00:50:59.760 --> 00:51:03.360 of the band's most iconic songs, and it's a song 00:51:03.360 --> 00:51:05.599 without a chorus, a very no effects thing to 00:51:05.599 --> 00:51:10.320 do. I mentioned Sum 41. In LA, Sum 41 covered 00:51:10.320 --> 00:51:14.219 Linoleum. As a way to tip their hat to both bands 00:51:14.219 --> 00:51:17.099 kind of quote unquote going out in style. I'm 00:51:17.099 --> 00:51:19.440 glad you took my hint there. It was really on 00:51:19.440 --> 00:51:21.599 the nose. And I'm sure the punk fans out there 00:51:21.599 --> 00:51:24.219 listening are kind of groaning at the fact that 00:51:24.219 --> 00:51:27.440 I really love that one to you. But I'm so glad 00:51:27.440 --> 00:51:30.420 you did it because considering no effects is 00:51:30.420 --> 00:51:33.019 calling it a day in 2024. And again, I'll use 00:51:33.019 --> 00:51:34.920 air quotes on that because we just don't know. 00:51:35.679 --> 00:51:50.510 Thank you.
