  Huntsman Hill: A Music Retrospective

  EP294: Social Distortion "Born to Kill"

  Jun 9, 202656 min

  More songs about hot rods, hard times, outlaws and missing your baby. Do we really need a new Social Distortion record in 2026? Maybe not but if we were gonna get one, we could have done a lot worse than Born to Kill. Mike, Rod & Glenn reconvene to discuss their history with the band, how Social D's music has endured over the years and how the new record holds up against their classic material.

  EP293: Fugazi "The Albini Sessions"

But when the two sides independently agreed the sessions fell short, they scrapped them. Later that year the band re-recorded the material with Ted Nicely , released it as their third studio LP, In on the Kill Taker . The original "Albini sessions" became legend—until now, twenty three years later, they have finally been released as a digital, pay-what-you-want album, with proceeds supporting the Albini founded Letters Charity .

  EP290: Best of 2024

  Dec 29, 20242h 23mS0

  We’re back to say goodbye to 2024. Our annual best of the year episode is chalk full of everything you’ve come to expect from the HHPP, excited exaggeration, mild disagreements and ten punk selections from Glenn (some of which he’s actually heard). See you in ’25!
