Me while doing laundry:
Listening to songs about being Dressed as goblins! Dressed as goblins! Dressed as goblins! Dressed as goblins! …
Yeah, we’re gonna need some band names here.
I’ll start: They’re more satanic than political, but Bridge City Sinners are a pretty solid folk punk group with songs about everything from mental health struggles to Uruk Hai, including a Jungle Book cover from their early days.
Anything associated with Pat the Bunny will slap (wingnut dishwashers union, ramshackle glory)
Big fan of AJJ, Days and Daze and the mountain goats
Edit: For an Old Kentucky Anarchist by the Orphans
Double Edit: Mischief Brew, duh…
Harley Poe, apes of the state, johnny hobo and the freight trains (Pat), local news legend, holy locusts, the taxpayers, stick and poke, Blackbird raum, Chad hates George (Jesse from Dayz), ghost mice (although there’s a bunch of stuff with their singer that makes me not want to listen to him), and many others.
Definitely one of my favorite genres. Feel free if anyone wants more suggestions.
Thanks for the recs! The Mountain Goats is interesting, as I would have classified them more as lo-fi or even singer-songwriter, rather than any sort of punk (but then I’ve mostly listened to All Hail West Texas and The Sunset Tree, so my experience is limited)
Absolutely. I’ve been more into satanic folk and stoner/doom metal than punk lately, but I’m always looking for a new band/genre to obsess over
Hopefully you are familiar with Amigo the Devil, if not please get on that right away
Edit to add some killer stoner/doom: Froglord, Hippie Death Cult, Snakemother, Year of the Cobra
Ok someone must be watching me.
Fuck the man!
And these darn tough grass stains!
Conversely … I usually listen to Pavarotti and Puccini operas when working in my garage.
