musk is going to die in a Tesla explosion in 6 months after sticking his nose where it doesn't belong and we will never get a conclusive answer on whether it was a CIA car bomb or just a normal Tesla malfunction

Not only my favorite Days N Daze song, but it is my favorite police centered punk song, period. The chorus is just great

James looks at the musical career of Patrick Schneeweis or as he is better known, Pat the Bunny. Pat is a now retired legendary underground anarcho-folk punk artist responsible for numerous groups and projects. His music notably discussed life under capitalism, drug addiction, homelessness, anarchism, alcoholism, mental health issues and the DIY ethos. He’s known to use cynical humour to discuss complex issues and express deep-seeded substance abuse and metal health issues. His music has been highly impactful in many people’s lives including my own, due to its refreshingly honest nature and complex yet relatable subject matter.
The article looks at albums from:
Johnny Hobo and the Freight Trains
Wingnut Dishwashers Union
Ramshackle Glory
Pat The Bunny

- ily when Jello Biafra says, "Here's another one for the police!" before playing Goons of Hazard on Dead Kennedys' Mutiny on the Bay album
- ily when Sean says, "We have two more and one of them is not ours. One of them belongs to The Mountain Goats, from North Carolina." before singing Going to Georgia on the Live At Trunk Space album. Because,, it was 2005. Prefacing who the Mountain Goats were dates that album in a really beautiful way because like. Look at them now. Both bands. It's silly but it's a very sweet like ,,look how far both bands have come,, kinda thing. Idk.
- ily when Sean Bonnette says, "Rigby? I'm gonna fucking stab you. Don't look at me with your shitty eyes :/ oh are we recording? Okay :3" in the beginning of Uno Mas Cerveza Por Favor from their split album with Flaspar/Golden Boots
- ily Pat saying, "This one is for all the ladies, it's about how you should all start a kickass rock and roll band." before playing For A Girl In Rhinelander on the WDU Live in Plattsburgh album
- ily Sean saying, "If you guys feel compelled to clap after we play,, please don't. Because that would be loud." before playing Jesus Saves during a show that wasn't even legal to host in a hotel room in Florida from their Holiday Inn Gainesville album
I know I'm missing so many, and i know some of these examples don't count as much because they're from live albums, but those shows were so important to the people there and I'm happy that the audio was preserved in a way where they're still being talked about so many years later.
one thing i never get tired of in songs is when they include some sounds from the recording booth like a laugh at the end, a ‘was that good?’ or like, the sounds of the guitar being put down, a chair creaking. it’s nice how music can be used as an escape but also something that ties you right back down to earth. it will affect you so deeply & then ur like wow… you just played that. it’s grounding & magical & just one of my fave things ever!
