In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
Feckin' love this band.
I like this 
Just heard this;
Like it quite a bit!

Great thread, I've not come across this before, but have just spent a productive half an hour at work checking out the videos - nostalgia overload.
Now that Summer is officially, officially here (That's official BTW) I've finally switched over the CDs in the car to more summery sounds (IE, more horns)
The next few months of commuting will be to the sounds of Rancid, Operation Ivy, Sublime, Catch 22/Streetlight Manifesto, Reel Big Fish, Capdown, Less than Jake, The Specials, Dexys Midnight Runners et al.
Yes, I'm aware this is effectively a 16 year old girls playlist from about 10 years ago, but as I mentioned, Summer and that.

Best punk band ever
34 minutes of true beauty

I could become a bit of a bore here.
San Francisco's Avengers made one kick-ass EP (and a less good album) and are filmed here supporting the Sex Pistols at Winterland. The last ever "real" Sex Pistols show.

This song is great
I also really like this cover of The Kinks' "Victoria"

Sorry amol
I was into all those American bands at the time. Later on The Dicks, Fear, 7 Seconds, Misfits, Circle Jerks. A great mixture.
In England around that time I felt the bands were just copying each other and the peope that were into it were all exactly the same. Me and my mates used to call them BBC punks. I suppose that kind of thing happens in every scene where the best bands get copied until everyone sounds the same.
I had to go through this thread to figure what this was about !Sorry amol
Don't get all emotional on me, Don.
I have no idea why I was being a prat.I'm putting it down to girl problems.
Like a bad hair day.
Came across this album last night while looking for a band/song, it's pretty good! It's a compilation of indie bands from the late 70's/early 80's from the South Coast. I recommend checking it out if you like the genres this thread's about.
Two great albums
Listening to Gang of Four's 'Entertainment' at the moment. Good stuff
This is great. Really relaxing and... dreamy.

This is quite fun.
I'm not sure how to describe it. I saw the phrase dance punk used, and I guess that would fit. It's funky.
I can't find any Youtube or Spotify links for the album, but here's a couple of tracks;

Dickie Hammond, founding guitarist of Leatherface, sadly passed away yesterday. So, it's only right to listen to one of the best ever UK punk rock records. Since Mush, there's been about 10,000 bands trying to sound like Leatherface. It was just an enormous record. Pretty much shaped what punk rock would sound like thereafter. Everything that came out of Florida in the 90s was pretty much because of Leatherface. It's just been reissued on vinyl. I think I'm going to have to get it.
YES ! Their new album is fecking great !This is quite fun.

Yeah, I hadn't listened to to it since I posted that, but I'm listening to it again now and it is good.
Just found out about this band. From this one track they sound great

Ahh, so good. I love this band.
This is cool
It was produce by JJ Burnel of The Stranglers. It's got a bit of a Stranglers vibe to it.

We seem to be stretching the term post punk so have some This Mortal Coil
I really like the supersuckers. Unfortunately they always seem to play only half as fast live as on a record. Their gigs become boring very fast.
I saw Flag in Amsterdam a month ago. Extremely cool show.
Few bands I'm into these days
Night birds (LA punk influences. Think Agent Orange)
California X
Iron Reagan
OFF!
Raketkanon (from Belgium).

Just listening to this.
Not listened to it in a while, but it's got some great tracks on it.
I discovered New Model Army the other day. Only listened to the following two albums as of yet, but I like what I've heard so far

2 late 70's US bands with hints of one strain of post-punk in them.
TSOL are cool. I really like Revenge, there are some cool song on there
Can't stop listening to The Sound at the moment, this album is fecking brilliant
Love the way the chorus comes in in New Dark Age

Lowlife are good. I've not listened to any of their albums in full much apart from Diminuendo, but I've just listened to the Eternity Road compilation and it's good. Nice and moody.
I'm liking this album a lot.
It's got some really nice stuff on it.

Another cracking record (or two) from The Sound
Love these couple especially...
Just great, great stuff really.

The new Bronx album is a disappointment. One of my favorite bands of the last 10 years, but the new one just isn't very good.
Any other new records worth checking out?
