Classic British punk: Can Haz DJ special podcast cut

October 4, 2011
1:54 pm

My September 20th CanHazUK show (first of 2 focused on British music) ended with an hour of all British punk, mostly lesser known (or at least less played in the 21st Century). I went a bit over time, too, and played more punk tunes past 1AM, when the show, and thus the podcast officially ends.

Now I’ve made a separate podcast of the 2 hours (12AM-2AM) of punk. So you get a concentrated 2 hours of classic punk. The second hour was only previously heard by maybe 5 folks who were tuned in at the time.

If you like this show, make sure to check out my earlier punk episodes including What’s New with Old Punks? and my Top 13 Punk Songs Of All-Time show from last year. Of course there’s a little punk in almost every episode, you should see my Podcast page and peruse the entire archive (and maybe subscribe while you’re at it?).

I am damn happy about the podcast cover, too, Anime shown here with some great punk CDs and the compiled “Search & Destroy” zines:
Anime, that punk girl

Get the podcast now. Read the playlist below. I’ll be back with an update on this week’s show shortly.

Playlist for Can Haz ABC DJ – plus special East Coast Earthquake, Richmond VA set

August 24, 2011
4:17 pm

A really fun show! Podcast page is here where you can listen or download or subscribe via iTunes. Here’s the direct link to the mp3.

Started off with a set of bands from my hometown of Richmond, Virginia. Bands daring from 1984 (Death Piggy!) to just a couple years ago (Galusha Grow), with a bonus couple bands from close by: D.C. and Harrisonburg, VA. All to commemorate the biggest earthquake the east coast has felt since the time of the last World War.

After that I did an alphabetical stumble of bands from Adam & the Ants to ZZ Top touring hip hop, Punk, Post-Punk, “Alt-Country” and the latest electronic styles along the way. Uncle Tupelo loves being next to Venetian Snares, I promise!

Finished up with a bit of this and that, including Akufen shaking up an old blues tune, a collaboration between Mark E. Smith of The Fall and Mouse on Mars (Von Südenfed), and some classic dub from Burning Spear.
