@tody I’m down with some banjo metal

I'm down with this sentence...like something quoted on a bathroom wall.

Speaking of banjo metal… an old fave band of mine. If you’re wondering about the eyepatch- dude wrecked his 4wheeler and as a result his eye and some other parts as well. Was psyched to see this as a comeback, after years of recovery.

Yesterday's concert was pretty great, first time seeing Cynic live (I think). Didn't know the first band (Cryptosis), but they did a decent job. Couple of songs from Obscura:

Septuagint from 2011:

Akroasis from 2016:

Awesomeness from Cynic:
Played the entire Focus album:

Personal favourite off Traced in air:

NOFX released their new EP, Half Album today. It completes the trifecta of Single Album and Double Album which are all songs recorded in 2018. I especially dig I'm a Rat and The Last Drag on this one. I have the vinyl preordered and it should ship out today.

@Oaktavia I need to listen to that album tonight... Didn't have time yet.

Here's one of the great new generation skate punk bands:

Love that cover since I first saw the Skate Video "Sorry" by FLIP as a young lad.

I recently picked up Decendents 9th & Walnut at our local WV record store in Shepherdstown. I've really been into this song from that album. It's just an excellent song in content and structure.

@mclaincausey yessss thank you for sharing this. I will try to see if I can stream it later tonight. Thanks, Mr. Anton Wilson.

@Oaktavia free on YT hard to beatFNORD!

@Oaktavia I love the Descendents. Will see them this summer, together with this band, part of the new wave of skatepunk bands:

@mclaincausey I only saw the Spanish version free on YT just FYI but it was free (with ads) in Prime which is where I ended up watching it. Great documentary, it helped me understand different versions of the band, members, Descendents Vs. ALL and the fact that Bill was the leader. I didn't know shit! I thought Milo was the leader of the band. Bill wrote those songs! And many of the Black Flag songs. So sick. I had no idea. 1000% recommend this doc to anyone even remotely interested in punk rock and the Descendents.

[mclaincausey]

@Oaktavia yeah man he played on MY War which I just caught the commemorative 40 year anniversary Black Flag tour on too. Legend. Got to see All twice. Great stuff.

[Oaktavia]

@mclaincausey that's ALLsome...heh. sorry.

Descendents come to Silver Spring in September with Circle Jerks...if only driving to DC area wasn't such a nightmare.

[mclaincausey]

@Oaktavia that’s a dream scenario! Other than the drive of course.

always liked this cover, RIP Gary Floyd

Here is a link to a NOFX final tour mix from recent shows. I have not listened to it yet, just made the mix from a download. Fair warning I hear the songs aren't that great. A Redditor shared the downloads with me after saying their performances were not too awesome but I wanted to download and listen myself. I'll be playing it them throughout the day today, there are 71 tracks. I will remain optimistic as NOFX is not usually held in a high regard in that respect, it sort of makes them who they are.

Edit: is it working on the playlist? If not, try this to download.

@Oaktavia I heard they suck live And they did, at least in Cologne last Sunday.

[Oaktavia]

@tody I love that live album, I have the vinyl! But yeah, not so much recently?
