The Cortinas - Fascist Dictator/Television Families 7″
April 5th, 2007 at 8:09 am
Ok, this site ain’t dedicated to more known bands no matter how good they are. But some known bands just needs to be posted. The Cortinas is one of them. And another reasons is that it’s great to pull in them known bands when I don’t have the time to write something worthwhile(as if I ever have ha ha) cause you can find just about everything about them just by googling or yahooing. This is punk with a lot of swinging rock in it. Over the top song writing makes this one of my faves from 1977.

Nice posting! I’ve loved this record for years! So catchy!! Ya, unknown bands own the market on good music- some of these “known bands” actually made a few decent records! Imagine that, all you stamp collector “I-don’t-get-a-hard-on-unless-only-three-copies-exist” types. In yo face!

Hey, known bands are people too! I have Defiant Pose, but hadn’t ever had the pleasure of hearing this. Thanks!

One of my ‘77 favs too, Peter! Pity about the LP on CBS.

I always get “Fascist Dictator” confused with
“Rebel” by the Viletones. They sound very similar
at first.
