Episode 7 (10/26)

Episode 7

The Coup - Ride the Fence

A great animated video for the most upbeat political song of all time:



MC5

This version of Motor City Burning isn't quite as passionate as the live version from Kick Out the Jams, but the second video is a testament to their incendiary live show.





Public Enemy

I can't embed the video for Louder Than A Bomb, but watch it here. The video is pretty cool, and the audio is actually a remix from Greatest Misses. Remember when Flav was a little more respectable? Chuck D came to speak here at ASU in 2004 and every time I see the poster for it in the radio station I get a little sad that I wasn't here at that point.

PE performed It Takes A Nation of Millions To Hold Us Back in it's entirety this past summer as part of ATP's Don't Look Back concert series, I wish I could've been there. There's plenty of video footage on youtube though and it's worth checking out. Chuck still outperforms MCs half his age.
