Objectionable Joe @objectionablejoe.bsky.social · 03/08/2026We recorded the new album for The Objections Rock n Roll Band last week. Lovely stress-free recording. Preliminary mixes sound cracking! Should be out whenever Wrong Speed Records can fit it into their crazy schedule. 🤓 180
Objectionable Joe @objectionablejoe.bsky.social · 12/06/2026Why can't people attach clip-on microphones anymore? I'm getting fed up with seeing videos of people holding a tiny clip-on microphone between thumb and index finger whilst telling me something pointless. What's that all about? 200

Why would they have been hurting in 1966 the day after winning the World Cup? Likewise, 1967; still champions. 1968; still the current holders etc. You get the idea. Surely they wouldn't hurt until 1970. 26 years of hurt. 2167

It's post-punk in the true sense of the word - people playing music as their own language with which to communicate a unique world view. If you dig Nomeansno, The Ex, Erase Errata, Fugazi or even The Jimi Hendrix Experience you're going to love this... 122
