's. A score of three is given to something that is a typical example of its style with nothing too outstanding or bad about it.
2008 saw some great records arrive at Chez Old Punk. In fact, there wasn’t a bad one among ’em. Label and distro people, you deserve maximum respect for keeping the faith. Band people, the punk flame remains in very safe hands. Onwards, upwards, forwards!
Some very lovely punks ripped and shared some stunning noise from days of yore. You’ve made a grown punk cry (in a good manly way) on more than one occasion. I’ve tried to remember to say thanks whenever I’ve grabbed one of the jewels on offer, and I apologise to anyone I may have missed. May all your turntables continue to spin unhindered.
To the ranters and ravers, thanks for making me laugh and think in equal measure. Keep grinding the bastards down.
And to all the friends who’ve visited and commented, you’ve helped keep an old punk very happy.
Here’s to more of the same in 2009 – cheers!
OP… cheers from Insurgence Records and Rebel Time Records. Brilliant blog. And thanks for all the support and kind words. Totally appreciated. We remain chuffed to bits. Keep an eye on the mailbox in 2009!
Keep up the good work! Nothing better than finding new things – new or old to my ears – to get my hands on.
Thank you again and rip the walls off 2009 and bring the noise!
