My name is Dave, and I grew up in Minnesota listening to the many punk & hard core bands that I'm featuring here. More important though, is that I'm not just posting the stuff that like, but I'm making an attempt to document every band that had something to do with the punk scene in Minnesota. From your Husker Du & Replacements to Dirt Poor & the Kung Fools. Bands that played bars, and bands that played basements and garages. I'd like it all represented here.
I'd also like your help. I can't possible do it all by myself, so if you want to see something here, let me know. If you see something on the net that deserves a mention here, let me know. If you'd like to contribute, let me know.
If you are in a band that I've posted here, and you want your stuff removed, just ask, and it will be removed. Most of my posts are links to other people's posts. Some of it is from my personal record collection. It is my intent to only post stuff that you can not otherwise buy. Long out of print stuff. If I link to stuff that is in print, I will try to include a link to actually purchase it. That won't happen very often though, since I try to post only stuff that I know to be out of print. If the band has an official website, I'll try to post a link to it. If I get something wrong, or you'd like to contribute something, let me know.
All I ask is that you enjoy the crap I post and if you have any suggestions, send me an email at: webbastard at mnpunk.com
This is the last of the In Defence stuff I can find online. My understanding is that everything is still in print, so I can’t post any music at this point. If I’m wrong, let me know.
Now, since I don’t own any In Defence, I’m going to stop posting and try to find something to buy.
Really liking what I’m hearing from these guys. The latest video by these guys is funny, fast hardcore which tells me that these guys not only know how to rock, they get what punk rock is all about. Their previous video (also posted here) was shot inside a Taco Johns. Right on.
Brought to you by this guy I never met, from half way across the country, that must have stolen my record collection. There is no other explanation for the great taste in rock this guy has.
