8. Discharge - Doomsday

The b-side to the ‘State Violence, State Control‘ (1982) single. However, the version on ‘Discharge Live…The Nightmare Continues’ (my first Discharge record) is simply outstanding.

Before I ditched Facebook, there was fantastic wee exchange between Mike Dean and Stephen Egerton (Descendents/ALL/FLAG) on an old CoC photo that I’d posted.

Heard about this band recently from Henry Rollins Radio show. Gobsmacked at how fucking great they are. Total fire and originality.

Yes, Steve Rosenberg (the BBC's Moscow correspondent) should interview Farage. He's good at holding Putin and his cronies to account. Also, any time Victoria Derbyshire fills for Kuenssberg, the show is immeasurably better; so maybe that should be a permanent arrangement.

A classic. Love that Sonic Youth used one of the iconic images from the film on on of their flyers from 1986 (with a pre 'Jr' Dinosaur Jr on the bill).
