Blank Generation

Hey folks,

Journeys returns, after a week off, with a collection of 70s Punk & New Wave.

The music of violent anti-establishment protest. And spitting 'n' that.

Artists likely to feature include Stiff Little Fingers, Sham 69, New York Dolls, Dead Kennedys, Sex Pistols, Wire, Rezillos, Cramps, Damned, Adam & The Ants and more.

The Spotlight will be on The Clash this week, with a few of their best 70s tracks (in my opinion) getting spun.

The Weird But Wonderful vote features "Punk's Saviours" aka Green Day. The two featured tracks are definitely Wonderful, being from back when they still young and snotty; but did you know they intend to turn 'American Idiot' into a 'punk-musical-rock-opera-type-thing'?! Wha... ? Still, 'Dookie' remains a classic:
