    2000, punk, sr-71

    Gotta Get Out of This Town's rogue gallery expands, as we review the debut album of band-rightfully-no-one-remembers Mitch Allen and the Mitch Allens. We weren't expecting to find a new worse album of the podcast so quickly... but here we are.

    2000, punk, ska, the suicide machines

    This week we time travel to the year 2000 and take a look at the only pop punk record in the discography of Ska-core band The Suicide Machines. It's weird and not particularly good... but at least doing research for this episode got Elaine into the band's other stuff so... silver lining I guess?
