Punk Aid 4: Autism Breaking the Silence

https://punkaid.bandcamp.com/album/punk-aid-4-autism-breaking-the-silence

Not going to stand here and review 130 bands, just trust me, this comp is amazing and you will love it. If you find a band or song you don't like, delete that particular song from your ipod or itunes just like you deleted that U2 album. I haven't found a delete worthy song yet though... 

While I won't stand here and give a band by band review, I will stand here and try to convince you to paypal $8 (that is 6.1538 cents per song) to Mike Virus in support of this amazing thing he has put together with all proceeds to be donated to the Autism Science Foundation. 




From Mike:

A year ago i was inspired to make the next Punk Aid compilation benefit autism research. The number of people living with an autism spectrum disorder are growing at a rate of 6-15 percent each year. 

As of 2015, 1 in 68 children in the U.S has an autism spectrum disorder. Quite a jump from 2 years ago when the number was 1 in 88 and an if you go back to 2007 that number was 1 in 150. Autism is on the rise but it is not clear if the statistics reflect a growing awareness of autism, of if there is some other factors causing the increase. 

Many of us know autistic individuals or know people who have autistic children. Currently there is no cure and research is critical to finding a cure. 

This compilation brings together punk bands from all over the globe creating the largest international charitable compilation of its kind. We stand together to give back to our community and to help find a cure for autism. All proceeds with be donated to the Autism Science Foundation. 

My hope is that we find a cure in our lifetimes, and that Punk Aid will continue to inspire punk rockers to realize that the world is ours to fix and make better.

Punk, Proud and Positive!
