The Jam were the biggest band to come out of punk in the UK without a doubt, they dominated the charts and spawned a mod movement all of their own, it's hard to see the two-tone ska revival taking off without the Jam first challenging the notion that everything from the past was just 'crusty hippy music', the music was well written and played, full of hooks and melody and they dressed well, they were the first 'punk' band the girls at my high school took notice of as well and that was no small thing at the time.

Paul Weller tipped a nod to the 60's both musically and in style at a time when looking like your older brother, let alone your dad was being laughed at in the rest of the punk movement, it paved the way for the Specials, who in turn paved the way for No Doubt Rancid and the Mighty Bosstones etc

Sadly much like Madness they were way too British and so really didn't translate to the US but they were huge in the UK

Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Gossip Girl actress Michelle Trachtenberg has died aged 39.

Her death is not being investigated as suspicious, police sources confirmed to the New York Post.
I remember her from Six Feet Under as the pop star Keith sleeps with. She was in tons of stuff. RIP.

I remember her best as Harriet the Spy and Jenny in Eurotrip. She was way too young.
