6. ZoundsThe Curse Of Zounds

A lot of punk is completely lost on me as a 36-year-old but, "All the world can not be wrong, it must be me, I don’t belong" from ‘Did He Jump’ is my daily mantra. Zounds made songs that were political but were written in a way that was very personal. I also heard that they had a member that won’t fly so he took a boat over to tour the States, which I can really admire since I too am unable to fly, or do most things that normal people can do.
