Asking For It - Happy Birthday Hitler (2008)

From last.fm:


"Asking For It hail from Hobart, Tasmania, Australia. Their only constant member is Chris Burrows who plays guitar and sings, the other members of the band depend on Chris’ location and who is free to take the time to learn a few ditties."


This is folk punk DIY ethic at it's finest. Asking For It reminds me of a couple of friends sitting around the camp fire with a few instruments and an acoustic guitar singing about your heartbreak and heartaches. The way Chris Burrows writes really moves me because it's something you can really relate to. If you're a fan of stuff like Johnny Hobo and the Freight Trains than you'll fucking love this band.
