I listened to every Alan Vega solo record cuz I was bored

Alan Vega is a legend but I feel like not many have checked out his solo albums over the years. I’ve been curious ever since Insurrection came out and I LOVED IT. Truly an album that left me wanting more as I finally sat down to listen to them all and wanted to let ppl know the ones that are worth checking out. Thx for reading sorry it’s long you can just go to the end for the ranking 😭

Please! If you are or were in a band, consider dropping any demos and b sides you can on the Internet Archive

That's all. Love lost media. Love the process. Some demos are my favorite versions of songs. Someone somewhere will really appreciate it.

I used to be really plugged into a local band, and only recently after 15 years, discovered their demo tracks leading to their first album. 16yo me would have killed for them

Amazing feeling.

Okay let's talk ska: Any "sunny" ska (punk) song recommendations?

I'm writing a feature including a list of ska songs to start a happpy summer with. Let me clarify:

Uptempo ska gives me this feeling of just drinking at a lake or something, not feeling any shame and having the most pointless conversations with your friends, some of who you don't even know that well. Everything is so peacefull, and when you listen to certain ska songs (okay, for cliché, Goldfinger-Superman), you just dance around and make weird dance/skank moves in the sand.
And then its like 8pm and ur the passenger princess going back home, all warm in your fresh clothes and sunburned and you don't really talk anymore in the because you're tired but all good. This feeling I get with tunes like Beef - Take it Easy.

Do I make sense to anyone?I love ska and it's variety and have always listened to it, but I'm not up to date or know all classics.

TLDR: Asking for mostly uptempo ska & ska punk, "goofy ska" recommendations. Just "sunny feeling" songs. Wanted to include old and new (punk) ska bands, uptempo classics, maybe some new releases? +1 if they have a cliche, skate, beer, sun videoclip lol

Cerebral Ballzy-Help a homie out.

I am a bit older, I guess you can label me whatever the late 90s-2000 punk was. Through the decades I enjoyed many new bands but not much really got me excited as much I was for Cerebral Ballzy though there are others like Pour Habit. Today I tried AGAIN to listen to Jaded and Faded by Cerebral Ballzy and I cant help to think to myself "WTF". Its not bad but I wanted so so much more of what the first album was. Has there been a more change to what it first was and can anyone explain why such the change?

Creating welcome baby playlist

My girlfriend and I will be welcoming a baby boy soon, and I would like to create a playlist for him with positive songs that contain a message or are about father-son. Which songs (including non-hardcore related ones) come to mind first for you?

First song came to mind is Everyting to me - teenage bottlerocket

Thanks!
