![]() I've made a list of ten albums the label put out that I think are essential, and that particularly resonate today. It feels like as good a time as any to take another look at Lookout!'s great - and often unpredictable - catalog. Green Day put out an album that's not half bad and did a tour of club shows like the old days, with plenty of Lookout!-era deep cuts worked in to their setlists. Pansy Division released a great new album (their first in six years) and have been called an influence by a certain rising punk duo. And some of the classic Lookout! bands are killing it as we speak. The specific type of pop punk that Lookout! was best known for has influenced a new crop of notable bands that tend to end up on labels like Dirtnap or Hardly Art or Don Giovanni (the latter of which even went on to work with Lookout! co-founder Larry Livermore). ![]() Lookout! Records may have called it a day back in 2012, but its influence is alive and well.
