Snap!
"The Power"
Back in 1991, I saw Snap! opening for MC Hammer in Birmingham, England. While a lot of Hammer's tunes haven't dated particularly well, Snap! still hits hard. "The Power" is a classic.

"Cannock Chase"
Siffre always seems to deliver whatever it is you need.

"American Woman"
"American woman, Said get away,
American woman, Listen what I say,
Don't come a-hangin' around my door,
Don't wanna see your face no more,
I don't need your war machines,
I don't need your ghetto scenes."

Spazz
"Let's Fucking Go!!"
Infamous powerviolence group Spazz write a love letter to hardcore, and all of its angry song introductions in this track off their third album. With samples from bands like Infest, Youth Brigade, Circle Jerks, and more, the song is a tornado of killer bass riffs and sporadic drumming.

"Mr. Moonlight"
Fun to listen to and pretend you're a good-for-nothing high school bum in the '90s.
