New Wave Tuesday: Post Punk Junk has been shut down.

Delta 5

Sadly Postpunkjunk.com bit the internet dust the other day. A google cache of their page states that their own hosting company shut down their site due to the load it was putting on the servers! Wow. Glad no one reads missingtoof. :)

PPJ says they will soon be reincarnated in a new form. We all await that day. No one could ever replace the great resource that Postpunkjunk.com was, but here’s some Post Punk Classics to hold you over until their return.

MP3: Delta 5 - Mind Your Own Business
MP3: Mo-Dettes - White Mice
MP3: Gang Of Four - I love a Man In A Uniform (Yeah Yeah Yeah’s remix)
MP3: Thee Headcoatees - Cara-Lin

Rough Trade Shops released a pretty comprehensive Post Punk compilation in 2003. 2 discs worth. Grab that here New Wave Tuesday: Post Punk Junk has been shut down.. If you like your post punk the way it was served back in the day; on 45’s, hit up ebay & Gemm.

DISAMBIGUATION
A lot of the stuff tagged as ‘New Wave‘ could arguably also be labeled ‘Post Punk‘ & vice versa. So as to not get into an endless argument on the differences between Post Punk & New Wave I’ll begin tagging both Punk Punk & New Wave as 80’s.



New Wave Tuesday: So Hungry, So Angry

medium medium New Wave Tuesday: So Hungry, So Angry

New Wave Tuesday again. Today we have Medium Medium’s classic ‘Hungry, So Angry’. This song is very today appropriate for me because I forgot the Cup Of Noodles at home. So I will be dining on air sammiches whilst everyone else is enjoying their Chef Boyarde. I think I’m gonna go gaffle those toaster strudels I saw in the break room fridge.



MP3: Medium Medium - Hungry So Angry

Like Gang of Four, Medium Medium have regrouped and begun performing again. Check their myspace for dates.
