When Rock ‘n’ Roll Still Believed It Could Change the World | Rock & Rule + Paul Collins

There was a moment not that long ago when rock ’n’ roll didn’t just soundtrack reality. It tried to change it. This week’s Movie of the Week is Rock & Rule (1983), the strange, ambitious animated rock opera that emerged from a time when music still felt mythic, dangerous, and world-altering. We’re also kicking off a new featured-artist arc focused on the members of The Nerves — beginning with Paul Collins. From power pop urgency to post-punk polish, Collins helped define a sound that still echoes through indie rock today. Plus a clip from the legendary Greg Shaw of Bomp! Records...and plenty of melodic noise from the margins. New year. Same mission. Digging deep into cult cinema, power pop history, and the music that refuses to disappear. Be good. Be weird. Today's tracks: The Leopards - Block Party The Voltz - Over and Done Kim Theory - Child Star Teenybopper The Webstirs - King of Distortion Joe Glass - Freight Train Woman Joint Pains - Everything Considered The Goods - Back to You The Vandalias - Buzzbomb! The Go-Go's - Turn to You Paul Collins Beat: Rock N Roll Girl That's What Life Is All About I Still Want You Paul Collins: Kind of Girl All Eyes to See Uni Boys - I Don't Wanna Dream Anymore Sharp Pins - I Could Find Out The Darts (U.S.) - Apocalypse Drugs In Sport - Cooked The Arcs - She's Just That Kind of Girl Bellvie - Feels So Far Away The Primitives - Way Behind Me

This week, we dive into the 1990 cult classic Pump Up the Volume — Allan Moyle’s pirate-radio rallying cry for every kid who ever felt like an outsider.

The Hook in the Hurt: Pop Rocks Radio Ep. 55

This week, Pop Rocks Radio takes it to Times Square — our Movie of the Week. Allan Moyle’s 1980 cult classic follows two girls who find their voices in the grit and chaos of New York. It’s messy, uneven, and unforgettable — just the way we like it! We’re also featuring the brilliant Tamar Berk, tracing her journey from the Starball days through her solo work, and closing with a brand-new track from her latest album, OCD. Tamar’s music is equal parts jagged poetry and irresistible hooks. 🔗 Links: https://tamarberkmusic.com/ https://tamarberk.bandcamp.com/ https://indivisible.org/ https://substack.com/@swlauden Playlist: The Chelsea Curve - Never Come Down Fastbacks - My Letters Smokey Brights - All in Who You Know Shannon & The Clams - The Moon Is In The Wrong Place PONY - Somebody Kill Me Please PONY - Chokecherry Starball - Say About Me Tamar Berk - Over and Done Tamar Berk - Better off Meditating Tamar Berk - Dandelions in My Flowerbed Tamar Berk - Chicago Tamar Berk - i'm in the day after The Cords - Fabulist Radhika - Future Me The Anti Groupies - Not My Problem The Hellflowers - Spanish Bombs Hunx & His Punx - Wild Boys Momma - I Want You (Fever) The Shivvers - Remember Tonight 👉 Listen now: listen.poprocksradio.com 💛 Share it, support it, and as always: Be good.
