The Adicts: Clockwork Punks (The Collection)

(Anarchy, 2005)

Discovery: These English lads made up one of the more popular punk rock bands of the 1980s. Growing up being interested in old school punk and loving the movie A Clockwork Orange, I couldn't help but hear about The Adicts. Their catchy, simple early punk is great for a party or background to a skate session.

Result: This album is a greatest hits collection of sorts, featuring 7" and live versions of their most popular songs. I haven't listened to this record in years, and I'm glad that this project has accomplished its purpose of making me listening to old favourites and new jams.

Stand-out Tracks: "Viva la Revolution", "Numbers", "Crazy"
