No DPOY??

And on the back end rookies, as good as they are, will make mistakes.

No but will investigate!

For number 5, I’ll go with Destroy Boys, who also have put out their best album. A greater mix of more tuneful pop-like songs with a sprinkle of great punk tracks.
Honorable mention would include SPRINTS, Panic Shack, Die Spitz. Who do you like these days? 6/6

The Lambrini Girls are quintessential UK punk. Politics are often in the forefront, but their work is also full of bangers. 5/6

Out of Australia and conquering the world is Amyl and the Sniffers. Great, cathartic rock and roll. Amy Taylor, who fronts the group, is a phenomenon. 4/6

I live in the greater Philly region, so I must stan Mannequin Pussy. They have been around for a few years, but are peaking artistically now – a combination of punk, pop and just incredible performance art. 3/6

Scowl is up first. They began in a hard-core punk scene in Santa Cruz but have grown incredibly – culminating in a recent album that gave me a Green Day 1994 type-electric shock. 2/6

What is frustrating is that if we could get enough folks to come over to bsky it would also solve the perceived shortcomings of this site.

In a new article, @hannahritchie.bsky.social and @spoonerf.bsky.social look at why there are such large differences in TB death rates, and what can be done to consign tuberculosis to the history books, everywhere: ourworldindata.org/ending-tuber...

Great work! #philsky
