Welcome to Society's Fault!

So, here is the homepage for WIDR FM's Society's Fault program, a history lesson in punk rock, weekly from 3-5 pm on Friday afternoons. First, we play you some proto-punk, so you can see the music that influenced punk. Well-known proto-punk groups include the MC5, the Sonics, the Stooges, etc. Then, we move into punk rock itself, in all forms (hardcore, LA punk, english punk, etc.). Finally, we conclude with a section on post-punk...or the music that came after punk (to a certain point). Although pretty much anything could fit into this category, we try to keep it from about 78-91, year-wise.

We have a PODCAST, which you can download by clicking.

And, here are the playlists from our last four programs, from the WIDR FM website:
