AFS v. 177 ~ We Wrecked Your Car!

Keep both hands on the wheel this week. The 2nd half of this road gets has some bumpier stretches than we've seen in previous weeks. So much misanthropy and cynicism this week...You'd think I was in some kinda miserable mood! Well, it does suck when it's 100°F (that's 37°C for you canucks (can you imagine??)), but truly, it was a great week of CDR ephemera scores and record hauls.

And best of all, there's a new Anteenagers M.C. record. I said before that this band (along with Hank IV) make the best 4-minute songs in punk rock, but now it's been fully two records fulla future-classics clocking in under 3:00. This just means you get more ingenious riffs. I'm all for that!

Is it just my imagination, or do these young L.A./O.C. bands on Rich Bitch bringing exciting new jams with the style and taste of the collector-scum schooled on the Dangerhouse discography? Incredible! I gotta ask these young'uns if they've been boppin' to the Bags and Black Randy since birth.
