Labor Day: The last hurrah of summer and the universal salute to the workforce. Whatever you’re doing today, do yourself a favor and blare at least one these five tracks today.
Skid Row – “Slave to the Grind”
Skid Row’s debut gets a lot of attention, but their sophomore effort and its title track is killer and deserves more due from rockers everywhere.
Green Day – “Working Class Hero”
The Ramones – “It’s Not My Place (In the 9 to 5 World)”
The Offspring – “Why Don’t You Get A Job”
Sure, Labor Day is meant as a day of rest, but some folks need to keep up off their ass and do something.
The Clash – “Career Opportunities”
Probably the most scathing song about the work force ever. We’d expect nothing less from the only band that matters.
