Saturday Morning Psychadelic Furs

DateSaturday, July 4, 2009 at 08:07 AuthorChicagoNeoCon | Comment1 Comment

The Psychadelic Furs have always had a very special place in my heart. I started high school the same year they debuted their first album, and for some reason, just about every teenage angst-ridden moment I experienced back then I associate with their music. Because this is a holiday weekend, I'll spare you the gory details, but let's just say that I was completely blindsided at work yesterday, so once again, I turn to Richard Butler for a little comfort, except that now, I find myself just wishing I had only those post-pubescent moments to deal with again.

The Stranglers are a punk band from England that has been around since the 1970's. The group's music isn't strictly punk, as this song, Golden Brown, demonstrates:

If that first one didn't wake you up, I'll just have to try a little harder.  And Maybe... just maybe... after this I'll start playing music from some bands that aren't from the UK.

Here's the band Collective Outcry with their video to New Franchise Mess, produced by D.A.R.Y.L. (Gallows, Funeral For A Friend, Pendulum)
