High Fives Punk Rock Podcast

Welcome back to another episode where our topic is overly complicated and vague. Why you ask?  Well because Mike thought it would be fun to talk about songs that have to do with events. What does that mean? If we told you , you wouldn’t have to listen to the episode. Fine its because we can’t really explain it. However here is our best attempt to summarize Episode 127’s topic. Events significant enough to tie it back to a song, band or album. So that means any historical event, newspaper headline or pop culture moment.  If your list wants to include a song about World War 2 but you also want to have one about WrestleMania 2 this episode is for you.  Have a listen and then send us in your list because we would love to hear and share what you would pick. 
Featuring music and discussions including :  NOFX, Bad Religion , Propagandhi, Boy Sets Fire, Chixdiggit, Brian Fallon, Weezer, The Flatliners, Alkaline Trio, Rocket From The Crypt, Krang, Freezeheads, Dave Hause, Silverstein, Like Roses, Parting Gift, Loose Lips, Back Teeth, Xray XXerox, State Power and more.

There is something about cars and music that just goes together. For some of us that connection is as simple as the love of driving a specific car. For others it might be the soundtrack to hitting the open road or nostalgic memories of cruising with your friends. Whatever it is there has always been a kinship between the car and music. In episode 126 we explore that connection with punk and its subgenres.  Whether you are in your car , stuck at your desk, on a walk or maybe just chilling on your own, have a listen to our picks and then let us know what car songs would make your list.

It's the dog days of summer (What does that even mean?) and I'm guessing the last thing on many of your minds is listening to us talk about music nerd stuff but hey summer is a great time to think about and spend time with your friends so that is what this episode is all about. 
Whether it's the friends you made at your first basement show, the people who kept your band together through countless tours, or the community that helped shape who you are, punk has always celebrated the bonds between people. In Episode 125 of the High Fives Punk Rock Podcast, Mike and Justin dive into one of the genre's most enduring themes: friendship.
What makes a great song about friendship? Why do punk rock, emo, melodic hardcore, pop punk, and ska bands seem uniquely drawn to writing about loyalty, chosen family, growing apart, and finding your people? We break it all down while sharing some of our favorite tracks that capture what friendship means both inside and outside the scene.

Episode 123 of the High Fives Punk Rock Podcast is ready to go and in this episode Justin and Mike break down and discuss some of the bands whose records, ethos, and raw energy laid the groundwork for an entire generation of punk without trying to sound too much like a bunch of wanna be poser kids. Sure we can gab for hours about the fat wreck and epitaph era. And yeah we were around for the emo/pop punk hey day. We would be lying if we didn’t hop on the 3rd wave ska bandwagon or get wrapped up in the indie sleaze of the 2000s. But for once we can say oh we were too young for these bands. Have a listen and please school us on who we should be listening to and why our lists maybe are a little weak sauce
Featuring music and discussion about Black Flag, The Misfits, Gorilla Biscuits, Chain of Strength, 999, Dramarama, The Clash, The Ramones, Agent Orange, The Rezillos, General Chaos, Surfbort, Gasoline Heart,Derry, The Saddest Landscape, The Flatliners and Box Elder.
