punk this week podcast: fugazi + pura manía
A long-belated official release of Fugazi’s sessions with Steve Albini have surfaced, and we are still thinking about Pokémon.
Punk This Week is see/saw’s weekly podcast from co-hosts Evan Minsker and Nina Corcoran—a discussion of the latest and greatest in the world of punk rock. We talk about six new punk records we’re loving from the past week. Note: Ad-free and bonus episodes are available only to paid see/saw subscribers with the link at the bottom of this page!
After discussing our listeners’ own sightings of Pokémon in the pit (following last week’s extensive Poké chat), we talk about Fugazi’s finally officially released sessions with the late Steve Albini. We also talk about new records by Pura Manía, Swirls, Yankee Bastard, Powerwasher, and Reek Minds.
Check out Fugazi’s 2005 set in Huntington, West Virginia and the Caddywhompus album Odd Hours.
