Blocks normally takes pride in being a local, Toronto kind of thing. It worked for Dischord and who are we to argue if something works for Dischord? Well, there’s always an exception (even at Dischord) and here when a band like the Diskettes is actually something that exists in the world you really really have to take notice. Basically, the Diskettes are not just the best but also the most punk band in Canada. They are punk like the Queers and the Marine Girls and Beat Happening and they are also the best people in the world. This is despite living and working in Montreal and despite originally being from (gasp !) Victoria.

This new cardboard package has shiny foil stamping on it that totally didn't come out in the scan. It looks waaaay classier in real life than it does here. Trust us.
