Can I Get Some Fucking Reverb Here, Douchebag?

Ray Charles - The Mess Around

2010-02-19T21:26:00.000-08:00

It's not just a song, it's a way of life.

The Hurriganes

2008-10-01T22:06:00.000-07:00

I couldn't find a clip of Red River Rock by Johnny And The Hurricanes, but while I was searching for it, I found these guys, The Hurriganes. Apparently they are some Finnish band from the early 70s. Their live stuff is obviously ripping.

I downloaded some of their albums, but it seems like their sound can't be captured properly in a studio. Most of their stuff seems to be covers, not sure if this next song I Will Stay is a cover or not, but it's fucking amazing.

Bobby Fuller Four - I Fought The Law

2008-09-25T00:43:00.000-07:00

Another rock n roll great murdered and the cops deem it a suicide. There's gotta be some sort of conspiracy going on.

The Beach Boys - I Get Around

2008-09-22T23:04:00.000-07:00

Holy fuck! I had 6 visitors yesterday on this blog. Big time! Guess I better update.

I fuckin love this song so much.

The Knack - My Sharona

2008-09-22T23:03:00.000-07:00

Yeah, it's a good song. I said it. Oh you don't think so? Well fuck you.

Buddy Holly - Peggy Sue

2008-09-22T22:54:00.000-07:00

Rock n' roll specialist. "Shut up Valens you fuckin La Bamba spic!" (That's a link.)

Elvis Costello - Pump It Up

2008-09-22T22:48:00.000-07:00

For anyone squeamish of Buddy Holly knock offs or ankle rolls, please look away.

The Animals - When I Was Young

2008-09-22T22:44:00.000-07:00

One of the top 5 rock n roll songs ever recorded. Eric Burdon is so fuckin punk in this.

Barry McGuire - Eve Of Destruction

2008-09-22T22:42:00.000-07:00

Look at all the hate there is in Regina.

Sonic Youth - Schizophrenia

2008-08-26T22:04:00.000-07:00

I've been on a real 90s kick again lately. The fact that I was a young teenager when all this music was coming out, it was so crazy to "be part of" an actual musical movement. When I got my first copy of 1991: The Year Punk Broke, it changed my fucking life. No kidding.

Dinosaur Jr. - Freak Scene

2008-08-26T22:03:00.000-07:00

Loudest fucking band I've ever heard live. It was definitely dangerous to my hearing.

Nirvana - Negative Creep

2008-08-26T22:02:00.000-07:00

Thought I wouldn't? Posting up one of the bands that no one thinks it's cool to like anymore? Fuck that, this shit is so good.

Metallica - For Whom The Bell Tolls

2008-08-18T18:49:00.000-07:00

Look at Cliff! He's playing that fuckin thing like it's a regular electric guitar. God's holy mercy do I ever hate Jason Newsted.

Danzig - Devil's Plaything

2008-08-18T18:46:00.000-07:00

This guy.... well.... this guy's the best guy ever.

The Melvins - Honey Bucket

2008-08-18T18:38:00.000-07:00

KING BUZZO has great hair.

Mercyful Fate - Black Masses

2008-08-18T18:35:00.000-07:00

We're killin babies.

Slayer - Postmortem/Raining Blood

2008-08-18T18:32:00.000-07:00

I've been on a real heavy metal kick lately.

The Seeds - Can't Seem To Make You Mine

2008-08-06T21:59:00.000-07:00

My newest favourite band. Pretty obsessed right now.

The Seeds - Pushin Too Hard

2008-08-06T21:53:00.000-07:00

Homeboy's cape is so gassy.

Johnny Thunders - Can't Put Your Arms Around A Memory

2008-08-06T21:50:00.000-07:00

There's a story in PLEASE KILL ME where one of Johnny's friends sees him without the super thick cake make up on that he used to wear to cover his blotchy heroin addict skin. In the book she says that he's sleeping on a navy couch, and that his skin was so covered with blue blotches that she thought the ink from the couch had ran into his skin, but it was all bruises.

Johnny Thunders - Born To Cry

2008-08-06T21:47:00.000-07:00

Don't do drugs, kids.

Protex - Don't Ring Me Up

2008-07-31T21:38:00.000-07:00

Powerpop at it's best. These guys are from the late 70s, in Belfast. I can't believe this clip is on YouTube as these guys don't even have a Wikipedia page, and they're not even on THIS site.

I've probably listened to this song a hundred times in the last week. Can't get enough of it.

The Lurkers - Shadow

2008-07-31T21:36:00.000-07:00

Classic forgotten punk single from 1977. Look at the funny little punks doing the pogo!

Buzzcocks - What Do I Get

2008-07-31T21:29:00.000-07:00

Ghost World was a horrible movie.

Sex Pistols (Paul Cook And Steve Jones) - Lonely Boy

2008-07-31T21:25:00.000-07:00

After Johnny Rotten left the band and Sid Vicious died, Malcolm McLaren, the opportunistic cunt kept pushing for more money and The Great Rock N' Roll Swindle was released as and album and a movie, with studio demos and a bunch of songs without Rotten. The movie is dog-shit terrible, but it's a pretty good album. Ironically, Paul Cook and Steve Jones wrote and performed two of The Sex Pistols' best songs in my opinion, Lonely Boy and Silly Thing.

Bonus! Asian titties!!!

Paul Cook And Steve Jones - Silly Thing

2008-07-31T21:10:00.000-07:00

This is an alternative version to the one HERE that appeared on The Great Rock N' Roll Swindle. The Rock N' Roll Swindle one is better, but the video is too fucking annoying. Too bad Paul Cook and Steve Jones' follow up band The Professionals was not anywhere as good as these two songs.

New York Dolls - Who Are The Mystery Girls?

2008-07-31T21:02:00.000-07:00

Johansen is looking HOT HOT HOT! (That's a secret link. There's lots on this blog. Have fun.)

Skip James - Devil Got My Woman

2008-07-24T23:47:00.000-07:00

Let's get serious here.

Skip James - Crow Jane

2008-07-24T23:46:00.000-07:00

This shit ain't no fuckin joke.

Screaming Lord Sutch And The Savages - Jack The Ripper

2008-07-22T15:40:00.001-07:00

Shock rocker #1.

Arthur Brown - Fire

2008-07-22T15:38:00.001-07:00

Shock rocker #2.

Alice Cooper - Is It My Body

2008-07-22T15:36:00.000-07:00

Shock rocker #3.

Bauhaus - Dark Entries

2008-07-21T22:42:00.001-07:00

I figured it was time for a goth update. I really wish mall goths would get their heads out of Marilyn Manson and Korn's asses and learn what real goth is.

Joy Division - Shadowplay

2008-07-21T22:39:00.000-07:00

I don't care how popular Control has made them. One of the best bands ever. One of the best songs ever.

Sisters Of Mercy - Lucretia My Reflection

2008-07-21T22:37:00.000-07:00

I used to make fun of people who liked music like this.

Christian Death - Romeo's Distress

2008-07-21T22:13:00.000-07:00

Did you know goth was originally referred to as "postive punk"? Pretty funny.

Speaking of funny, I made this joke up today:
A goth goes into a psychiatrist's office and the psychiatrist says "What seems to be the problem?" The goth says "Doctor, I don't know what's wrong with me. I can't stop smiling and I'm happy all the time."

Siouxsie And The Banshees - Arabian Knights

2008-07-21T22:12:00.000-07:00

I was hoping for "Mirage" but there's no video for it.

Link Wray - Rumble

2008-07-21T22:02:00.000-07:00

The king of guitar. Long after the song came out, but still bad as fuck. When this song came out it was banned from radio play in some places because they thought it would entice teenage violence. Pretty raw for a song with no words.

Hoodoo Gurus - Like Wow Wipe Out

2008-07-21T21:55:00.000-07:00

From the remains of Australian punk band The Victims who did the gem Television Addict. Super lame video, but great song.

The Ronettes - Be My Baby

2008-07-17T16:37:00.001-07:00

Dear Ronnie Spector: If I send you a time machine to the day you recorded this video, could you take it back to the future and marry me please?

The Shirelles - Will You Still Love Me Tommorow

2008-07-17T16:33:00.000-07:00

One of my favourite songs of all time. Not sure what's up with the Elvis and JFK clips, but fuck it, the song is too good.

The Ramones - Judy Is A Punk

2008-07-17T16:23:00.000-07:00

I love you Dee Dee.

Dee Dee King - Funky Man

2008-07-17T16:19:00.000-07:00

I really do.

Johnny Thunders - Vs. John Spacely

2008-07-17T16:14:00.000-07:00

Pure punk. The look on Johnny's face afterwards when he tears into Pipeline... amazing.

Dead Boys - Sonic Reducer

2008-07-17T16:12:00.001-07:00

I don't need anyone.

The Damned - Love Song

2008-07-17T16:10:00.001-07:00

Dave Vanian: The original goth.

Elton Motello - Jet Boy Jet Girl

2008-07-17T16:06:00.000-07:00

The catchiest song ever written about getting your dick sucked by a dude. I actually like the Damned cover better, but there wasn't a good video for it.

Plastic Bertrand - Cest Plane Pour Moi

2008-07-17T15:59:00.000-07:00

A french version of Jet Boy Jet Girl, written because they knew the song was a hit, but would never make it big with the lyrics. These lyrics however, are complete rubbish.

Clike HERE to check out the english translation.

The Castaways - Liar Liar

2008-07-17T15:54:00.000-07:00

Not trying to jock Nuggets too hard, but this song is too good.

Waaaaaaaaaait a second.... that's a dude doing the high voice?!

Count Five - Psychotic Reaction

2008-07-17T15:50:00.001-07:00

Too obvious, but way too fuckin good.

Black Sabbath - Nativity In Black

2008-07-17T15:48:00.000-07:00

I figured it was time to heavy it up a bit here.

Samhain - Archangel

2008-07-17T15:46:00.001-07:00

Nice guitar, Glenn. Satan rules.

The Misfits - Skulls

2008-07-17T15:41:00.000-07:00

Hack the heads off little girls and put 'em on my wall.

The Kinks - Till The End Of The Day

2008-07-03T14:02:00.000-07:00

Way better than the Beatles.

The Zombies - Tell Her No

2008-07-03T14:00:00.001-07:00

You tell that bitch.

The Kingsmen - Louie Louie

2008-07-03T13:57:00.000-07:00

What really needs to be said about this song?

Click here.

The Only Ones - Another Girl Another Planet

2008-07-03T13:52:00.000-07:00

Cool video to go with a live performance. Fuck Blink 182.

The Scientists - Last Night

2008-07-03T13:49:00.001-07:00

One of the best pop-punk singles ever.

The Shangri Las

2008-07-03T00:18:00.000-07:00

One of my favuorite bands of all time.

Great Big Kiss

The "Ennnh he's bad, but he's not evil" part in this is amazing. Mary Weiss was so hot.

Some links to other Great Big Kiss clips: 1 2 3 4

Leader Of The Pack

Out In The Streets

He grew up on the sidewalks, he grew up in the streets.

When I say I'm in love, you best believe I mean luv, L-U-V.

The Kinks - Milk Cow Blues

2008-06-24T17:09:00.000-07:00

Talk about blowin it! This many clips and no Kinks?! My favourite jam by my second favourite band ever.

The Rolling Stones - Play With Fire

2008-06-24T17:06:00.000-07:00

One of the top ten best songs ever.

David Bowie - Moonage Daydream

2008-06-24T17:00:00.001-07:00

Wanted to post Hang On To Yourself, but the Nazis wouldn't let me.

T. Rex - Jeepster

2008-06-24T16:53:00.000-07:00

Marc Bolan's even prettier than Billy Idol.

Johnny Thunders & The Heartbreakers - Born To Lose

2008-06-24T16:51:00.000-07:00

Just listened to the Heartbreakers '76 demos with Richard Hell. Thank God they got rid of that hack before LAMF came out. Now if they had only got rid of Walture Lure also. He's a dildo.

? And The Mysterians - 96 Tears

2008-06-23T20:47:00.000-07:00

The first song that the word "punk rock" was ever used to describe. Also one of the first mainstream hits by anyone with Mexican descent. Chicano power!

13th Floor Elevators - You're Gonna Miss Me

2008-06-23T20:42:00.000-07:00

A pretty obvious choice, but one of the top 5 rock n' roll songs ever written.

The Velvet Underground - Venus In Furs

2008-06-23T20:38:00.000-07:00

Back when the Plastic Exploding Inevitable was as much of a show as the music.

Read Please Kill Me.

The Monks - Complication

2008-06-23T16:47:00.001-07:00

Funny hairdos. Don't think they needed the gimmick at all.

The Troggs - I Can't Control Myself

2008-06-23T16:44:00.000-07:00

The "OH NOOOO!" at the beginning is amazing.

Johnny Thunders - Copy Cat

2008-06-18T12:50:00.000-07:00

Johnny covers a little Gary US Bonds, and has some of his best audience interaction ever.

Gary US Bonds - Seven Day Weekend

2008-06-18T12:48:00.000-07:00

Gary Anderson changes his last name to "US Bonds" in hopes his songs will be confused with advertisements selling government bonds. He then writes one of the best songs ever.

The Stooges - TV Eye & 1970

2008-06-18T12:34:00.000-07:00

The performance that spawned the best rock n' roll picture of all time.

"That's.... peanut butter."

Lou Reed - Vicious

2008-06-14T15:13:00.001-07:00

Not nearly as good as the album version, but worth watching just for Lou Reed's dancing and prancing. What a queen.

I've been listening to Transformer five times a day.

Eddie Cochran - Somethin' Else

2008-06-14T15:08:00.000-07:00

Those drums hit pretty hard. Punk as fuck in '59.

Eddie Cochran - C'Mon Everybody

2008-06-14T15:03:00.002-07:00

Elvis ain't got shit.

Eddie Cochran - Twenty Flight Rock

2008-06-14T15:03:00.001-07:00

The original punk rocker.

Jonathan Richman And The Modern Lovers - Egyptian Reggae

2008-06-14T15:00:00.001-07:00

The Modern Lovers don't actually appear in this video, but I defy you to be in a bad mood after watching this.

New York Dolls - Chatterbox

2008-06-14T14:23:00.000-07:00

If space aliens came to earth and asked me to tell them what rock n' roll is, I would show them this clip.

"Baby you hear me callin?!"
