Punk Rock Monday

I have to thank pattyjoe for introducing me to the Walkmen when he floated me a copy of A Hundred Miles Off. Had it been released ten years earlier it would've been the soundtrack to my mid-20s, combining the intensity and rawness of punk, a strong sense of dynamics (the Pixies come immediately to mind as a comparison in this regards), but with a woozy ambiance that perfectly encapsulates one thousand nights in a dive bar.

"Wake Up" and "Rue the Day"


"Lost in Boston"


And lastly, "North Pole"
