MARCH MAYHEM - Pushead's Top 100 of the 80's (Qualifying Round) (Part 1 of 2)

THE KINGS kick off their second annual MARCH MAYHEM tournament
bracket. This year they work their way through Pushead's
Unofficial Top 100 of the 80s. This list, compiled and published
in 1990, constituted the bulk of Pushead's final "Puszone" column
in Thrasher Magazine. 


The top 28 records got a first round buy. In this qualifying
round, the KOPPOD hosts embarked upon a mission fit only for punk
fanatics of their caliber: listen to 72 releases, and compare
them to one another based on random tournament seeding. It should
be no surprise that they got the job done. They discussed,
dissected, and debated the releases and their relative merits in
each round. It's all here for your listening pleasure, and it's
split up into two parts for your mental digestion. If you have
yet to acquaint yourself with the Puszone list and the music
referenced therein, the list is linked below along with a YouTube
playlist for this qualifying round. Let us know what you think of
the troika's choices; it's a certainty that these episodes will
ignite debate and derision. And we love to hear it!
