The Mekons - Rock n Roll

I’m waking up today with one of my favorite bands - The Mekons!
I still have the press kit that came with it! And yes, of course I gave it a great review! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A pair of great crested grebes - one male and one female. The male has his display feathers, but they are retracted

A stretch of fen with two transmission towers (pylons, if you prefer, but they are called transmission towers really)

No #heron this morning, but there were #grebes and #Mekons

Bij de voorbereiding van dit blog heb ik @erwblo.bsky.social zelf nog even erbij gehaald om de samples te clearen 😆 Zag #EtonCrop in mei nog, in de bovenzaal Paradiso. Geslaagde double bill met #Mekons, met ook deze pre-Madchester kneiter in de setlist spotify.link/rM8wnBrdLXb

Mekons: Tiny Desk Concert The world is doomed, but at least we've got the Mekons. The British punk band rumbles through its down-but-not-defeated songs with rowdy defiance.

Mecánica borracha, violín exuberante, guitarras 'tocadas', sección rítmica alegre como si estuviera bajo tranquilizantes y voces masculinas y femeninas tan humanas que dicen la verdad al poder y cuentan esa última noche que fue un fracaso tan complicado. #Mekons

The Rise and Fall of the Clash Redux review – screen encore for punk’s raging heroes Danny Garcia’s second take on the band’s story looks past their riotous ascent to the gloomier and rather less watchable years that followed

This review is #PeakGuardian. Desperate to pretend that The Clash didn't produce a lot of crap as well as some good tunes...

Anyway, it has given me a #Mekons Never Been In A Riot #earworm

Indie rockers the Mekons are ready to take their music ‘where we want’ The band will play at Union Stage on Sunday, July 20.

In my profile of the #Mekons, #JonLangford says of the band's New "Horror": “We had lyrics for some songs that didn’t quite fit with the horror theme, so Tom [Greenhalgh] would take them away and make them more horrible,”

The Prince of Darkness The Mekons are a fantastic British band that I have taken to my heart since their early days. Many of their wonderful songs have accompanied me for years of my life -- and one that has touched me most

And here’s “Prince Of Darkness” covered by #antichrisis

"Prince Of Darkness" (here's the acoustic version with Michelle Shocked) is one of their most beautiful songs that somehow became my personal anthem.

The Mekons invented alternative country long before the all those hipsters jumped on that bandwagon - and to this day, The Mekons are innovative, energetic and extremely witty and amusing. Of course, they got older -- just like us, but they never lost their attitude!

I just found out the #mekons are playing in NYC, but the tickets to their Bowery Ballroom show are sold out.

Anyone got a spare to sell?
