This is Americas Favorite Punk! That's their name, so it's kind of a thing. Mathan (pronounced MATH – IN) began his music career as a HARDCORE drummer for a few bands before forming Americas Favorite Punk. He initially developed the idea as a cover band with an old band buddy. As they practiced the classic punk artists and developed their chops a decision was made to go all original and then Mathan decided to go solo. It's now an original project founded as of August 2018 and Mathan has an interesting take on how to bring music out. He's starting with singles…but, he has a slightly different plan on the album, and Cory Wilkins weighs in on that.
His music is mostly tradition Punk, with a splash of Alternative. He brought us three tracks, one of them a rough mix of "Punk Rock Jacket Girl," formerly titled "Charlene." When we recorded this episode the song hadn't been released. Listen to it on Spotify and compare the released version to the teaser we played at the end. The conversation veered away from music, as it often does, and we ended up talking about Scientology, how women talk, and throwback TV commercials. Cory even goes on a little chat about home studios. Big Jon rants a couple of times, but luckily Mathan takes over…
13:17 - "Midnight Beautiful"
33:23 - "Avalon"
40:03 - "Punk Rock Jacket Girl" (ROUGH MIX)
