“Thing sure have changed since we got kicked outta high school …”
#rocknrollhighschool #70srock #rock #rockmusic #theramones #music #musicsky #musiciansky Rock 'n Roll High School opens in theatres on August 24, 1979. The title song becomes one of their classics, and the film gains a cult following. I have it in the collection but, like Riff's math book, I only bring it out on special equations.

"#Punkrock exploded out of the chaos of 1970s #NewYork, giving a voice to outsiders, rebels, and misfits. Yet many of the movement’s most influential #musicians, managers, club owners, and tastemakers came from #Jewish backgrounds. From #CBGB and #theRamones to the rise of #punk in both New York and #London, why were #Jews so prominent in a movement built on alienation, rebellion, and challenging the mainstream?"

They started it all.
The Ramones released their debut album on April 23, 1976 and so began the musical genre of Punk Rock. They influenced a slew of bands including The Buzzcocks, The Clash, Sex Pistols, Green Day and more. Rolling Stone put Ramones at #33 on their list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. #TheRamones #70srock #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky #punk #punkrock

Today's earworm. Probably poor taste, given the state of the world, but this was the tune that occupied my brain as I woke up!
When I was a student, the covers band I played in did this...
Hey! Ho! Let's go!

What do I do when I'm off from school? Well today I've constantly paused true crime documentaries so I can rant and share fun facts about the history of the Ramones to my friend group chat that are half-interested at best.

"Baby, i love you" - The Ramones
With the New Wall of Sound from a producer we don't talk about.
On the right equipment, this sounds absolutely massive and utterly inescapable.

Suncraft – Welcome to the Coven Review
By Spicie Forrest
I first became acquainted with stoner rock while attending college and skiing in Salt Lake City. Whether carving the corduroy or taking face shots of bottomless pow, the raucous groove of the style made for a great soundtrack. I’ve largely moved on to heavier and less accessible pastures, but once in a while, something brings me back. This time, it was Suncraft, a five-piece formed in Oslo, Norway in 2017; I couldn’t let a genre tag like “stoner/black/pop” pass by unyoinked. We missed their 2021 debut, Flat Earth Rider, but I’m here to give their sophomore effort, Welcome to the Coven, the proper AMG treatment.
Suncraft has historically relied on mid-paced stoner rock, but their second LP sees the band move in a different direction. Welcome to the Coven is what happens when Queens of the Stone Age wields The Sword and walks The DOGS. It’s riotous, retro, and downright groovy. With a triple-pronged attack, guitarists Vebørn Rindal Krogstad, Sigurd Grøtan, and Jens Henrik Kverndal let loose a wildly infectious salvo of stoner and garage rock. “Welcome to the Coven” and “Forgotten Goddess” rip across the desert in an old convertible Mustang powered solely by diesel and sativa. “Love’s Underrated” gives garage revival and a little Japandroids, while “Wizards of the Anger Magic” opens on The Beach Boys and pays heavy tribute to The Ramones. Mixed into this strong foundation you’ll also find riffage stained black (“Ragebait”), pop punk angst (“Greed Battalion”), posty and proggy diversions (“High on Silence”), and even a millennial whoop or two. These are disparate elements to bring under one umbrella, but like fellow countrymen Kvelertak, Suncraft pull it off well.
In a brew stereotypically known for wanton abandon, Welcome to the Coven succeeds through restraint. Post-black and pop punk normally make bridge- or hook-centered appearances, being used as means to build drama and release tension rather than ends in themselves. Drummer Tobias Paulsen utilizes a predominantly upbeat rock style, but he’s got a full toolbox. He deploys d-beats, hooks and fills, blast beats, and tempo changes with precision for maximum emotional impact (“Love’s Underrated,” “Welcome to the Coven”). The same can be said of bassist/singer Rasmus Skage Jensen, whose strings feel elementally nostalgic, both in tone and in their intentionally dynamic grounding of hooks, leads, and rhythmic support. And by keeping a normally tight grip on his vocals, the moments when Jensen lets loose and pushes his pipes to their limit shine all the brighter (“Greed Battalion,” “Forgotten Goddess”). Rather than employing an unchecked, maximalist style, Suncraft’s tempered and deceptively meticulous songcraft elevates Welcome to the Coven far above the sum of its parts.
Suncraft doesn’t treat the incorporation of these various flourishes as puzzles to be solved. Instead, every element on Welcome to the Coven seems chosen and placed to best support a deliriously and irresistibly fun grand design. This approach and Suncraft’s success with it grant them an inimitable air of sprezzatura.1 Krogstad, Grøtan, and Kverndal spin around each other so naturally, offering inspired counterpoints (“Wizards of the Anger Magic”), tossing in pristine fills (“High on Silence”), and passing leads and solos like a hacky sack (“Love’s Underrated,” “Forgotten Goddess”). I don’t for one second believe that Jensen’s interjectory “fuck it” on “Greed Battalion” or Paulsen’s double bass in “Welcome to the Coven” are off the cuff; this album is far too good for that. But when I hear the killer solo in “Love’s Underrated,” the exceptional back half of “Charlatan Killer,” or the barely controlled chaos that is “Forgotten Goddess,” I can’t help but be awed by the explosive synergy on display here—and the casual effortlessness of it.
I had high hopes when I picked up Welcome to the Coven, and from the first seconds of “Ragebait” to the final cymbals of “Forgotten Goddess,”2 Suncraft blew me away. The chorus of “Charlatan Killer” was the only exception, being merely good in a sea of great. Each track on Suncraft’s sophomore effort fits together naturally and neatly in a singular, unified vision. Primally familiar like the mythical dog days of summer, Welcome to the Coven is an astoundingly fun ride. By the end of its 40-minute runtime, I’m invariably left craving more. And if that isn’t the mark of a great album, I don’t know what is.

Ramones – Road To Ruin
I went on a fool's errand and tried to figure out how many times, and where, we had seen The Ramones play. I failed. The '80s were a long time ago, it turns out.
