There are 2 different versions of Roky Erickson and the Aliens "The Evil One." This is the Amercan pressing released 1981. Roky was notoriously ripped off Id be surprised if they were ever paid royalties. #musicsky #vinyl ##nowspinning I will put the UK version below

The Meat Puppets II is the blend of psychedelic punk you need, recorded in the early 80s but timeless. On the great SST label. #musicsky #vinyl #punk

If you think life sucks the the doom punk classic by Flipper "Album Generic" is for you. Even if you're happy and well adjusted listening to this record will bum you out. #musicsky #punk #nowspinning #vinylsky

This is the Dirtbombs "Horndogfest" on white #vinyl they were from #Detroit and their sound is really grounded in the motor city style. #musicsky #garage #punk

Here's the Dead Kennedys Plastic Surgery Disasters. They were one of the most exciting live bands Ive ever seen. First US pressing on vinyl, for me stand out track is Moon Over Marin. ##musicsky #punk #nowspinning #vinyl

Changed the avatar from Devo to Infest "No Man's Slave" feeling more power-violence than synth-punk these days.

Here is a very rare blue #vinyl copy of the mighty Replacements "Let It Be" Twin/Tone records pressed 1000 these to fill out some extra sleeves they had, but they found out the labels were misprinted so no more were made. #musicsky #punk #nowspinning

This record is universal, the sound of a deep love which must also confront the grief and pain of death. Listening to it was therapy for me while receiving radiation treatment for cancer
I try and use this platform for positivity. Presently, it's impossible to not feel the weight of the world. As it's particularly heavy at the moment, it's incredibly important we seek solace in the fact that humans are capable of great things. I will continue to never lose sight of that.. Peace.x

Dropped acid then went bowling, dropped ball on my big toe and broke it
What's the most ridiculous way you ever hurt yourself? I got out of the tub, skidded in water and tripped over the toilet. Ankle sprain.

The Crucifucks: Wisconsin-- Doc Dart's band recorded in 1987 plays in a surprisingly post-punk style, sounding more like Dinosaur Jr than MDC. Great production by Butch Vig helps this project along. #musicsky #nowplaying #punk
