"It just makes you wanna slap some cunt, doesn’t it? I’m having them over The Clash - they were a proper punk band for me. I don’t think too much about it but it’s in us all, that record."

Rolling Stone's 382nd greatest album of all time
Brilliant proto-punk album, being at times like a punk version of The Doors, at other times more sombre and melancholy. The mix of these marks this album out apart from other similar albums of the time. I only recognised Roadrunner (because of the disastrous Sex Pistols cover on The Great Rock'n'Roll Swindle and listened to MIA's cover just the day before!), but really enjoyed the album. Around halfway through I suddenly recognised Jonathan Richman's voice as being the singer throughout There's Something About Mary.

Rolling Stone's 328th greatest album of all time
Good, raw grungey album. I think my only knowledge of Sonic Youth to date has been Sugar Kane on a compilation album, so this raw, punk sound was a pleasant surprise.

"Daft Punk’s Homework was really big for me growing up. I know Daft Punk is this big huge thing…It’s like Daft Punk and Coachella are almost on the same level. Daft Punk to me started just so pure, and there still is a purity. You can see that they are like, “What’s going to get everyone excited?” versus what’s just going ot make them excited. That Homework record is just so raw, they were 16 when they made it and I heard a rumor that their dad mixed it in their basement. It’s just a super cool record and there was nothing like that when that came out, that was huge for me. I bought that at Walmart when I was just a little kid. I remember that I just couldn’t believe it, that “Around the World” bass line was just blowing my mind."
