100th POST: IGGY v. POST-PUNK

We're not typically fans of the meandering, self-important post-rock stylings of indie-press faves Mogwai, but their song "Punk Rock" is clever bit of emotional manipulation. The song samples an interview Iggy Pop gave to Canadanian broadcasting legend Peter Gzowski, in which the head Stooge freaks out the norms by declaring that punk rock is, among other things, "a word used by dilettantes and heartless manipulators."
