THRASH METAL CASSETTE

Admittedly, I cover my fair share of punk here on Boxcar Collective, having listened to the genre for five plus years now and extensively researched its storied history. Yet, I know that for many it still remains a rude, harsh, and ultimately inaccessible counterculture. THRASH METAL CASSETTE is here to change that.

Pop punk. Riot grrrl. Skate punk. Hardcore. Folk punk. Surf punk. Tender punk. Garage punk. Street punk. All notable modern punk subgenres are present in this playlist in order to give you the most holistic view possible. The unifying factor among all the songs featured here? A distorted, stripped-down sound that comes from honoring the noble DIY punk ethos.

Featuring some of the most important figures on the punk scene like Jeff Rosenstock, PUP, Skegss, Joyce Manor, AJJ, Thee Oh Sees, IDLES, THICK, and Parquet Courts.
