Music behind DJ:
 

 

 

 

 

 

Nirvana, the White Stripes, Hole, the Hives—all sprang from an underground music scene where similarly raw bands, enjoying various degrees of success and luck, played for throngs of fans in venues ranging from dive bars to massive festivals, but were mostly ignored by a music industry focused on mega-bands and shiny pop stars. Eric's book "We Never Learn: The Gunk Punk Undergut, 1988–2001" tracks the inspiration and beautiful destruction of this largely undocumented movement. What they took, they fought for, every night. They reveled in '50s rock 'n' roll, '60s garage rock, and '70s punk while creating their own wave of gut-busting riffs and rhythm. You can purchase a copy for yourself here.

Thanks to everyone who listened today and participated on the comments board! If you like the Drop In, perhaps show your interest by pledging a little dough to the show during the last week of the 2024 Hellraiser Fundraiser.
