Nah, he's Brick and Mortar's busiest music nerd. In fairness, Fantano's whole brand is kind of descended from these real life Music Shop owners, who just spent their whole lives listening to music and talking about with people
@@oliverbentley4524 okay so you don’t understand the history of punk then. The 76-77 movement in mainstream uk wasn’t just the sex pistols and blaring guitars. It was a complex mixture of shock culture, music, art, fashion. Pub rock mainstays like dury and the 1010ers (strummer), and eddie and the hot rods had attitude and embodied what was at the time a punk ethos, do it ourselves, fuck the rest of em, do what we want. Punk rock is not the same as “punk”, bands likr dury’s paved the way for the funky post punk, and influenced so many other bands born in and after 76/77. Ian Dury and the blockheads are a quintessential part of UK punk history, and uk music history and melon not knowing them shows his bias, he knows london calling which has the blockheads keyboard player on it for gods sake.
For anyone who grew up with a punk Dad, Ian Drury and the Blockheads was a staple of the UK Punk/New Wave scene. Some iconic songs, and among the first into UK punk to incorporate other genres into their sound, especially jazz and funk. You must listen Antnee
Stiff little fingers - inflammable material is such a great album. The vocals especially really make you want to break stuff. That’s what punk should do
*Shows Ian Dury Record* Me: “Oh, my dad loves that one” Melon: “I’m not even going to pretend to know that” GUESS WHO IS THE BUSIEST INTERNET MUSIC NERD NOW ANYHONY
Ian Dury and The Blockheads are classic, that record is worth checking out. As are their singles like Rhythm Stick, Reasons to be Cheerful, and their Rockpalast live album.
I've seen his videos talking about different awesome records. Definitely has a lot of British bands, which I love! That record store is so awesome. Plus Stiff Little Fingers is a definite win. I agree. Great band.
Ian Dury was a very British punk music artist who’s I guess is best described as a cross between talking heads and Iggy pop but more street punk and with a lot of talk singing
Here is the list for anyone interested ❤ Inflammable Material Album by Stiff Little Fingers Germfree Adolescents Album by X-Ray Spex New Boots and Panties!! Studio album by Ian Dury London Calling Studio album by The Clash Love Ire & Song Studio album by Frank Turner
You don't know Ian Dury? He did hit me with your rhythm stick amongst many many others and even had a biopic where he was played by Andy Sirkus (apologies on the spelling)
Ian Drury is an aquire taste but is a pioneer in the Punk and surprisingly hip hop landscape, not for everyone to be sure but I think youde enjoy some of his work Melon, and this is arguably his best album
Glad you’re reviewing this guys content! He runs a record store and does loads of videos recommending different albums, it’s such good content would highly recommend
Ian Dury's might not be that famous but has one of the more recognizable songs in Sex and Drugs and Rock'n Roll... Although i never thought of it as a punk album.
Ian Dury is a British gem, my dad showed me them when I was young. Not necessarily the most traditional punk. I'd maybe swap them out with an album by the Damned
Is there a way you can start an “album of the day” series so we can listen to all of your favorite albums and maybe find new genres we can get into? I think it would be super dope and popular
the RELIEF that flooded through my system when it turned out we like frank turner here. wasn't sure I was ready to hear you tear into love ire and song 😅
Fantano has never heard of ian dury 😱 That genuinely surprises me because ian dury was one of the cleverest lyricists of the punk era and his backing band the blockheads were so tight
New boots and panties is a classic man, my dad brought me up with that album , his mate got it when he was a kid, really surprised fantano didnt know it
The ONE time I’m like okay tony fantano you can’t know every single album ever… literally right after thinking that the true goat brings out an album from the deepest recesses of the underground which only true punk rock fans would know. W for the dad
There’s a comfort in when I don’t know an album and our melon savior fills me in on what record it is. But if even the Melon doesn’t know, oh god what do I do!
Sure, frank turner, but did you know the day before Frank Turner set the record doing 15 shows in 15 cities in 24 hrs, Crywank did 16 shows in 16 cities? Now that’s folk punk
Tony gotta give a listen to the Ian Dury one, it includes : raw punk sounds with synths occasionnally farting, obscene ballads with a cockney tone (forty years before Sleaford Mods), as well as booty-shaking disco bangers ! A gem of its time for sure !
I'm pleasantly surprised that Melon likes Frank Turner. Didn't think that was his kinda thing considering how dismissive he's been of bands adjacent to FT (Gaslight, Menzingers, Against Me, etc.)
everyone talking about how fantano didnt know the album, im out here like "fuck you mean london calling is more pop than punk" the lyrics man, you gonna tell me those are pop lyrics brotherman?? fuck outta here LMAO
My favourite punk albums are Rocket to Russia - The Ramones London Calling - The clash Dookie - Green Day Fun House - The Stooges Nevermind the bullocks here’s the sex pistols
Is this dad the REAL internet’s busiest nerd???
Nah he’s The Real “Dial up’s busiest music nerd, back at you again with another (not) classic review
Nah, he's Brick and Mortar's busiest music nerd. In fairness, Fantano's whole brand is kind of descended from these real life Music Shop owners, who just spent their whole lives listening to music and talking about with people
Bustiest nerd
@@karebushmarebu233p⁸7
He is lol
bro found an album not even fantano knew 💀
pretty insane if you ask me, never would've expected this.
Ian dury is quite famous as well
I felt so cool cause I know that album lol
I checked it out and it is not punk tbh
@@MUSE1795 not really yeah
the world will explode now, dad has broken reality and presented anthony with an unknown album.
Ian Dury is know.
The first album he doesn't know 💀
He also didn’t know about Trial by Verbal Assault. Someone brought it up on one of his let’s argue vids, I think.
@@lexicondevil6333he means it’s the first ever album he didn’t know.
@@JamosHeat You’re right. I misread their comment
@@lexicondevil6333 it’s alright I did the exact same thing
There have been some other couple here and there he admitted haven't heard
First time I’ve seen him not recognize an album that’s pretty crazy
he actually did that a few days ago on one of his shorts i think
It happens every once in a while
This is the first time I see Fantano not knowing an album
My god that Ian Dury record is great. Melon dont know.
bet he knows baxter dury though, smh
I don’t even know how he doesn’t know, it’s kind of a mid-level punk classic
@@spencerlane415 i would call it more of a funk/rocknroll album than punk tbh
@@oliverbentley4524definitely a lot more funk in there than its given credit for 100%

We have found an album that Anthony doesn't know, my life is a lie.
I can think of over a hundred albums that he 100% has never heard of
Holy fuck, I know, own and have listened to an album that Fantano does not even know.

Im shocked Fantano is a Frank Turner fan, thats a big W
This is the first time I've seen fantano not know an album
HOLY SHIT WE FOUND AN ALBUM FANTANO DOESNT KNOW
how does this man not know ian dury.
Finally some Love for Frank Turner Over Here
Fantano messing up on Ian durry Hit me with your rhythm stick is a classic punk/funk song. Also Ian’s story is really interesting
Funny enough blockheads keyboard player was the same for London calling
The biopic is sooo good.
You're in for a treat! That Ian Dury album is a gem.
new boots and panties is a classic
As a Frank turner fan, I am glad to see Frank Turner mentioned
Love that Ian Drury record too! One of my Mum’s favorites
This dad must have been the coolest guy back in the 80s

Inflammable Material isn't just valid. It's a 10/10, Suspect Device is one of the most angry punk I've ever heard.
*Shows Ian Dury Record*
Me: “Oh, my dad loves that one”
Melon: “I’m not even going to pretend to know that”
GUESS WHO IS THE BUSIEST INTERNET MUSIC NERD NOW ANYHONY
the new boots and panties actually kinda slaps tho
Not punk tbh

Ian Dury was a very British punk music artist who’s I guess is best described as a cross between talking heads and Iggy pop but more street punk and with a lot of talk singing
That's a very misleading description
Anthony's into Frank Turner? Huge huge win, one of the best folk songwriters of all time
Ian Dury is a crazy good artist.
Youve probably heard his songs.
Sex and drugs and rock and roll is a well known song of his
London calling being pop is a wild take Anthony

Germfree Adolescents

You don't know Ian Dury? He did hit me with your rhythm stick amongst many many others and even had a biopic where he was played by Andy Sirkus (apologies on the spelling)
At the end of the day it's your father who a had a good taste in music
Fantano knowing the first two but not the blockheads is wild
BLOCKHEADS !!!💥 Ian Dury ☮ was excellent, he who surrounded himself with excellent musicians. Classic album. Definitely check it out.
Ian Drury is an aquire taste but is a pioneer in the Punk and surprisingly hip hop landscape, not for everyone to be sure but I think youde enjoy some of his work Melon, and this is arguably his best album
I respect that he is willing to acknowledge when there’s an album he’s never heard of
Ian Dury was incredible! Brilliant film starring Andy Serkis a few years ago
Glad you’re reviewing this guys content! He runs a record store and does loads of videos recommending different albums, it’s such good content would highly recommend

Fantano not knowing an album is like your math teacher struggling to solve a question
Is there a way you can start an “album of the day” series so we can listen to all of your favorite albums and maybe find new genres we can get into? I think it would be super dope and popular
We need a review of that album that he didn’t know 😭
How does he not know Ian Dury??? Thought that would be the most famous album out of the lot. Fantastic songwriter and great band backing him.
the RELIEF that flooded through my system when it turned out we like frank turner here. wasn't sure I was ready to hear you tear into love ire and song 😅
Finally some love for Frank Turner from Fantano!❤
The fact that I didn’t see any Daft Punk angers me beyond measure
Fantano has never heard of ian dury 😱 That genuinely surprises me because ian dury was one of the cleverest lyricists of the punk era and his backing band the blockheads were so tight
New boots and panties is a classic man, my dad brought me up with that album , his mate got it when he was a kid, really surprised fantano didnt know it

Ian dury is so sick, clever trevor off that album is awesome
Dude. Please review some Ian dury. The guy is a colossus over here and influenced loads in the uk scene
First I'm hearing of Ian Dury being obscure to Americans. Over here in Britain he's a punk icon; he even had a number 1 hit
Andy Serkis' Ian Dury film is great.
There’s a comfort in when I don’t know an album and our melon savior fills me in on what record it is. But if even the Melon doesn’t know, oh god what do I do!
Ian Dury and the Blockheads
There awesome and they made a movie about him a while ago that is really good.
I never thought id see the day i know an album Fantano doesnt. Its very very British tbf but i am floored
Live me some frank turner! Great concerts too.
You absolutely need to listen to Ian Dury and the Blockheads and that's a greta album to start with.
Sure, frank turner, but did you know the day before Frank Turner set the record doing 15 shows in 15 cities in 24 hrs, Crywank did 16 shows in 16 cities? Now that’s folk punk
📢THIS JUST IN: SOME GUY'S DAD KNOWS AN ALBUM FANTANO DOESN'T KNOW OF📢
You could tell by his presence that this mf was about to start spitting
Tony gotta give a listen to the Ian Dury one, it includes : raw punk sounds with synths occasionnally farting, obscene ballads with a cockney tone (forty years before Sleaford Mods), as well as booty-shaking disco bangers ! A gem of its time for sure !
This guy runs my local vinyl shop, haha small shop. Absolutely love him!!! Bond over oasis, cast, arctic monkeys and the seahorses
The fact that I know what Ian Drury is and Fantano didn’t just blew my mind
'Hit me with your rhythm stick. Hit me. Hit me'. Love that song, not on this Ian Dury album though.
Knowing Melon likes Frank Turner is weird. Does he know other names in that Extra Mile posse? Beans on Toast? Skinny Lister? Will Varley?
the way he says W at the end
I'm pleasantly surprised that Melon likes Frank Turner. Didn't think that was his kinda thing considering how dismissive he's been of bands adjacent to FT (Gaslight, Menzingers, Against Me, etc.)
Fantano didn’t know hit me with your rhythm stick guy
I know Ian Dury from his stuff with the Blockheads, probably like a lot of people
Surprised melon doesn't know
