Me and two other buds started talking about starting a punk band on Thursday, and now it’s Monday and we just had our first rehearsal/jam session and to say we are THE great American punk rock band is an understatement. I apologize for the disappointment when we actually release something.

I was at my music organization's meeting yesterday and they brought up how the punk scene here is nonexistent. Just looking back and appreciating the bands keeping the scene alive back in my hometown! When I joined this org I had the vision of bringing these bands I befriended up to la because of the very fact there is no punk scene near me. Hoping this can come to fruition soon. I find there's so many talented artists everywhere, but sometimes their success is determined by access to resources.

I’m about halfway through it, but so far it’s been really informative and interesting. It’s all about the birth and evolution of the indie music scene in the US, with an emphasis on punk, post punk, noise, emo, and what we would now broadly call “indie rock.” Each chapter is dedicated to a different band, highlighting influential acts like Black Flag, The Minutemen, Minor Threat, Fugazi, and my current hyperfixation: Sonic Youth. Check it out and buckle in for a pretty long and wild ride through the history of indie rock.

It’s a nice little dopamine hit and helps you connect to old familiar feelings of comfort. I started doing this after a bout of pandemic depression and it still helps me get out of a funk every once in a while.
