This week’s episode was suggested by listener Emely. However, if she hadn’t suggested it, we would’ve done it anyway because Dead Kennedys are one of the greatest punk bands, hardcore bands, rock bands—one of the greatest BANDS ever. We had a blast talking about all of their albums. Not a single bad record. Listen to anything by them, honestly. They’re completely batshit. Brilliant songwriters, too.
Closing track: “This Could Be Anywhere” from Frankenchrist (1985)
