Destroy All Music, Part 3 (Early U.S. Punk & Hardcore)

Earlier this year, we kicked off a mini-series called Destroy All Music, which is dedicated to early U.S. punk and hardcore music (some from the late 1970s, but mostly from the 1980s). The recurring series' primary focus is on more lesser-known and obscure artists from the era (i.e., no Black Flag, Minor Threat, Bad Brains, Germs, Dead Kennedys, et al). We also strive for no duplication across shows, meaning each set features a completely different list of bands/artists. Part 1 was broadcast back in January, followed by Part 2 in April and a spin-off Youth Crew Hardcore set, also in April.

Although our attention has been focused elsewhere in recent months, we've steadily been putting aside songs for future installments of Destroy All Music. In fact, we have enough music mapped out for at least another two hour-long playlists, not including this week's third installment. So, keep your ears open for more Destroy All Music in the coming months. In the meantime, here's the playlist for Part 3 of Destroy All Music, which was broadcast on Saturday, November 8, 2014:

About The Way Out

The Way Out is a weekly radio show hosted by Andrew and Diana Bottomley on WSUM 91.7 FM in Madison, Wisconsin. We feature a wide range of punk, post-punk, indie rock, garage rock, psychedelica, no wave, noise rock, and other rock’n’roll esoterica. We're drawn to anything that's adventurous, different, and "out there." We've even been known to throw in a set of modern classical, prog, or country from time to time. Mostly, we play “classic” material from the 1960s through the 1990s, though we also mix in some newer music here and there. Following a "no hits, all the time" philosophy, we emphasize overlooked and otherwise unheard of artists, or lesser-known songs from more popular artists.
