| Your Enemies Friends The Wiretap The Wiretap E.P. Buddyhead Records 2004 Los Angeles-based noisy art-punk band formed in 2001.

Saw someone get hit with a bottle at a live show! |

| Devo Pity You New Traditionalists Warner Records 1981 This LP was meant as a musical and lyrical rebuke to the success (and clueless new fans) brought on by the hit single "Whip It". "Opening cut "Through Being Cool" is Devo laying all that aside. |

| The Raincoats Fairytale In the Supermarket The Raincoats We ThRee 2009 About this song, from Ana da Silva: “There is a scene in Who Is Poly Styrene, set among the grocery store aisles, where Poly is pushing a shopping cart beneath fluorescent lights, grabbing up products… it is the industrial Wasteland of late capitalism. ‘I remember distinctly thinking that her music sounded a bit like fairytales, but in a consumerist society. Suddenly it came to me. This is like a fairytale in the supermarket.’” |
11:05 PM |

11:26 PM |
| NEU! E-Musik Neu! 75 Grönland Records 2001 Third studio LP released in - you guessed it - 1975 by former Kraftwerk members Klaus Dinger and Michael Rother. This album influenced much of the music created by John Lydon with PiL. |
