Marshall Stacks & Rayon Slacks: 1979's Disco-Rock Dionysians

 

1979 was a liminal year, so it's only appropriate that musical boundaries would be breached by the short-lived but still-resonant Disco Rock movement. The two styles inhabited two entirely different spaces, with Disco a distinctly urban music and Seventies rock ruling the suburbs, but with the record companies gasping for economic air and Disco peaking commercially it only made sense to merge the two. 

Yes. Punk is Dead as a Hammer.

This dude comes from my old neck of the woods and I could tell right away, on account it takes an old Masshole to recognized another. His vid here goes into how and when punk rock was castrated by the record companies, and turned then into a safe space for the kinds of weenies who wouldn't be caught dead near a hardcore show back in the day.

Everything lives and dies, that's just life. But seeing the corpse of punk dragged around as an amen corner for Big Pharma (and the Globalist cause in general) is just too much for this former punk rocker to stomach.
