The Kings of Punk

We continue on our journey into the genre of noisecore diving into the real titans of the genre. IG: @koppodofficial Twitter: @kingsofpunkpod Email: kingsofpunkpod@gmail.com Sponsors Shirleyroadrecords.bandcamp.com Syruphead.storenvy.com

We discuss the humble beginnings of a genre most would find reprehensible. From foreign art movements to rowdy rocking teenagers, the origins of noisecore are likely more interesting than the music for most but we hope you gain an appreciation for the genre and find something new to enjoy for the years to come.

We are finished with Slap-A-Ham brackets and back into being fun (even though we never stopped). We talk about a bad donut trip, the future of shows and the awkward Brendan Fraser clap.
