I have a suggestion as well

Taken from their wiki page

I stumbled across this band because I'm on a Lupe Fiasco kick lately and he happens to be the lead singer.

I'm pretty sure this is considered post punk but correct me if I'm wrong

I wonder if James is going to pick another album soon for us to listen to and discuss

Just waiitng for more discussion on the last album before we do another.

I might as well suggest something...

Music from Hell (1981) by Nervous Gender

It's a pretty interesting synthpunk album. It's a bit experimental and you could say it has some elements of industrial in it (but it is closer to punk). They also don't use one singer, they transition between maybe three or four different ones throughout different tracks within the album (which is cool). I guess you could also say it shares a few similarities with Suicide's debut album, except the fact it's less poppy and more punkish.

Well... I enjoy it. It definitely has that raw sound that appeals to punk rock listeners.

^^Great one :thumb:

And what a coincidence. I'm making a compilation, which I'll post soon (these days I hope), of minimal-synth and synth-punk, and Nervous Gender is there, along with a lot of other interesting stuff.

Is this album club still active...?

idk waiting on James...he's been MIA living his life and stuff outside of MB

partying up and having a good social life.

Could someone start this back up? It's really a shame that so many album clubs are inactive/dying.

I don't know if you are still around but i think you vote that you should take control of it and kick start it back up.


I was going to use this club to learn more about punk

I'm running the Indie and Alternative Album Club, but I don't think it will be too much trouble running both... Should we start over the album nominations and start from scratch or... work with what we already have nominated?

By the way, it would be great to get you into punk rock. I know you like hip hop, and you would be surprised how much the two genres have in common (I believe one of the members of Minutemen made the comparison at one point).

we can work with the nominations that we have for the time being, maybe you can add one or two more to flesh it out a bit more then start a 3 day vote.

Or you can pick one of the above to start the discussion process then go with voting after this week discussion period is over or however long you want the discussion process to be.
