When I were a lad….as in my profile picture…my best friends were a mod, a new romantic, a greebo (look it up), a skinhead and various other motley crews…we loved each other and hated each other’s musical interests. The first Specials album, the first Jam albums, the first Crass albums, the first Iron Maiden albums, the first Slits, first Cardiacs etcetc – they were “punk rock to me, Mr Narrator”. I sincerely hope that every generation since feels the same whether it is Less Than Jake, Skrillex, Blink 182 or something I’m too uncool to be in the loop for.
