Welcome to the first episode of Punk This Week! Evan Minsker and Nina Corcoran gather to discuss the best punk records this week. This time it’s the sophomore album from Fake Fruit and the long-awaited return of Melt-Banana, plus versatile D.C. punk Spring Silver, Olympia shit-fi heroes the Gobs, Belgian fuzz rockers Itches, and Hattiesburg hardcore weirdo Bad Anxiety.

Thanks to Baby Tyler Band for use of our theme song “Needs” off their self-titled album. Thanks to Waylon Thornton for the bumpers.
