A peek behind the curtains here: I usually write up these posts well in advance. Because of my ADHD I go through bursts of creativity followed by dayslong, or weekslong, fallow periods. More on that here.
I wrote up my post on Lambrini Girls on September, 7 (Sunday night) as well as my forthcoming post for Friday and two other posts. I realized there was a common thread between my Monday and Friday posts (feminism, irony) and I thought to myself, "the entry I have scheduled for Wednesday doesn't really fit the theme I unintentionally created; I wonder if I have other songs that I love that would fit that bill?"
Readers, of course I do.
I think I looked for less than a minute.
Here comes THICK to the rescue!
I was first introduced to THICK years back by my dear friend Sean, who seems to know all of the up-and-coming punk bands, which is pretty impressive for a dude in his 50s. He thought I'd like THICK, and yes, yes I do, so very much.
While this isn't the first song of theirs I fell in love with (don't worry, I can assure you an entry on that track will be coming), I discovered and became enamored with it shortly thereafter.
Two punk tracks in one week, Michael?
Yep!
If you love female-centered punk rock from Brooklyn with a slightly pop sheen delivered with a wry smirk, THICK is for you.
Enjoy!
