I got the new Strike Anywhere album today. It's everything there is to love about punk. Fast, hard, angry, melodic, anthemic and delivering a powerful message that makes you want to lift your fists in the air and live the life they preach. Very samey and predictable , but they're hardly in the business of breaking musical boundaries! They're all about the message, and they deliver it to perfection.
The postman also delivered my ticket to see them with Propagandhi and Protest The Hero at the end of November in London. Can't wait, it's going to be a fantastic gig! Propagandhi seem to have a new lease of life. They used to rarely tour and rarely release, and now they're all over the writing and the touring. Must take full advantage while it lasts!
And last but not least in my three item delivery was the New RX Bandits CD, with a t-shirt and badges. I've had this downloaded for a while so no surprise musically, but I try and support all my favourite artists by actually buying their music, even if I do download everything for free! And RX Bandits are a massively underrated band that deserve all the support they can get!
On Thursday I had to write a letter to Freddie apologising for wasting his time in a game of Pro Evo. They currently have a system at their house whereby anybody who loses a game by five or more goals has to write a sincere letter to the victor apologising for wasting their time. A stoner creation if ever I've heard one, and one that I will make sure I never have to abide by again!
