Let the musak begin! My buddy and I have batted around the idea of starting an mp3 blog for the past year or so, and tonight, with the help of Delerium and I.P.A., we're finally taking the plunge. I'm starting this mp3 blog out with a tune from my high school punk rock vinyl collection.  Tomorrow I hope to discover sobriety, at which point I will fill in the rest of this entry with intelligent, clever commentary on why this band is worth giving a whirl.

Update: Bladder Bladder Bladder is an appropriate name for this group of British style punk rockers.*  They like repetition. A lot. And surprisingly, it works. In fact, the more they chant "U.S. Dole Queue," the more I want to sing it myself.

I purchased this split E.P. in 1998, in the twilight of my brief, but firey, love affair with punk music.  I don't remember why I bought it, but it probably had something to do with the band's silly, adolescent-sounding name (I certainly hope it wasn't the "100% Punk" declaration on the cover).

The EP was a split with the East Coast band Dimestore Haloes, but I think BBB outshines the Haloes in every way--tighter melodies, better lyrics, catchier guitar riffs. You can find these tracks and more at their website.

1. "U.S. Dole Queue" - Bladder Bladder Bladder

2. "White American National Killer" - Bladder Bladder Bladder

 * "British style" means the lead singer has a pisseriffic British accent most likely acquired by spending too much time listening to albums by The Business and Sex Pistols. The band currently resides in the very un-British place of Hollywood, California.
