THE NEW ZEALAND SHOW (Part 1)

PUNK PRESCRIPTION PLAYLIST 8-19-09

Just coming back from a 3 week visit to lovely, mysterious New Zealand, and I am obsessed with some of the great music and musicians the islands have produced. I only got a chance to visit the north island, but I’ll be playing selections of lo-fi/punk/post-punk “hits” from both. It’s far from a comprehensive list of great kiwi bands, just groups of songs from groups that have made an impression on me.
