Ah, April 15th. Ben Franklin coined the infamous "but in the world nothing
can be said to be certain except death and taxes." Nobody has proven him
wrong just yet. I'm also going to put music in that category if I may. So I
thought I'd post about IRS Records, them of the new wave and ska sounds of
the 80's. (They also had Black Sabbath, which I had no idea about). In terms of icons, I think their logo was one of the coolest of all the
labels and looked great on a pin you would sport on your lapel (remember
that?). And on their fab roster they had no less than The English Beat,
Oingo Boingo, The Go Gos, Wall Of Voodoo, REM, General Public, and the
Buzzcocks and more that I am forgetting. Cheers to IRS Records today- you
are way cooler than taxes, that's for damn sure. Follow the link below cause
we all need a little "Tenderness" today...XO
