poly stryrene RIP

Punk singer Poly Styrene, former singer with the X Ray Spex, has died at the age of 53 after suffering from cancer.

She was one of the first female punk icons, whose unorthodox yet infectious style was highly influential.

Real name Marianne Elliot-Said, she had cancer of the spine and breast.

A statement on her official Twitter feed said: "We can confirm that the beautiful Poly Styrene, who has been a true fighter, won her battle on Monday evening to go to higher places."

Poly Styrene formed her band after watching the Sex Pistols perform on Hastings Pier on her 18th birthday and became known for her unpolished vocals and energetic rallying cries against consumerism and environmental destruction.

The National's latest song...from the Portal 2 soundtrack? Such a haunting song doesn't seem like it belongs there.

huh? I was just pointing out outdated lyrics. He's referencing a two-way pager.

I'm f-ing with AAHZ to make him (and me ) feel old.

Young people of today.

Don't worry. I see white people dressed like homosexuals and I know to avoid it.


Going to make AAHZ feel real old...

Hey AAHZ, this song was made 10 years ago... TEN years ago...

i've got their entire discography. cool band, although a lot of their stuff you can file under 'whiny indie crap', they do have some great moments to make up for it. i need to put them online at some point as there's a real shortage of their recorded stuff out there.

here's a band that i think you'll like (you may know them already). the viletones, late 70s candian punk. i've been listening to them a lot lately, here's what i consider to be their two best songs.



the viletones - screaming fist



the viletones - danger boy

I like (Albie: don't listen to this, you won't like it)

Oldtime screamin' eff you lyrics.

I think the refrain goes "the young girl of Spring - where she comes from, nobody knows"... but my Russian is not that good, let alone my Ukrainian
