This episode of P is for Punk dives into Failures in Art: Sordid Youth Vol. 2, a compilation that captures the evolution of Raging Nathans from 2017–2021.

Joining me is Josh Goldman, frontman of the band and owner of Rad Girlfriend Records. Together, we break down every track on the comp, talk through the band's history leading up to this release, and dig into how these songs reflect different eras of the Nathans' sound and mindset.

We also get into why compilation albums like this still matter in punk, touching on DIY ethics, physical releases, and how comps can tell a bigger story than a single LP. Plus, Josh shares insight and stories behind all the EPs and singles that went into how Failures in Art.

If you care about modern punk, DIY culture, and the stories behind the songs, this one's essential listening.
