Episode 387: Various Adventures.

Author: Punk Till I Die April 18, 2026 Duration: 1:41:43
Neil goes out on the town to meet up with some friends and see Teenage Bottlerocket. Tom heads back to Logansport to hang out with a bunch of nerds. They also talk about how it was a rough week for hardcore guitarists. With songs from the Adverts, The Dopamines, Teenage Bottlerocket, The Jasons, The Foleys, and Alkaline Trio.

Tune into Punk Till I Die for the sound of two weathered voices from different sides of the Atlantic. Hosts Tom Trauma and LiverpoolNeil are veterans of the scene, and their conversations meander through everything and nothing, always circling back to the music that defines them. This isn't a history lecture or a rigid review show; it's the feeling of hanging out in a basement after a show, where passionate debate and personal anecdotes carry as much weight as any fact. You'll get unfiltered opinions and sharp commentary on punk's past, its present incarnations, and what the future should hold, all delivered with the authenticity that only comes from having lived it. Crucially, this podcast is fueled by the soundtrack of the movement itself, blending classic anthems with newer discoveries across every era of punk rock. The guiding principle here is simple: no rules. It's a raw, funny, and often insightful look at a culture that refuses to die, hosted by two who clearly never will.
