Tom Morello once said that ‘every successful, progressive, radical or revolutionary movement that has ever been seen has had a great soundtrack’. We bring you these soundtracks. Each week we have a different theme and movement, playing the songs that have provided impetus for change and given people a voice.

From the end of the 70s to the end of the world, punk will never die.
I am convinced that the pop-punk giants who ruled the '90s and '00s produced lyrics to rival the titans of British Romantic verse. In this one-off gameshow, contestants need to separate John Keats from Jimmy Eat World, Samuel Taylor Coleridge from Sum-41, and Mary Robinson from Mayday Parade. Will they emerge fluent in the tongue of a romanticised but far-off revolution, or stumble back into the world as naïve as they were before? Find out on Pop Punk Poetry, where poetry readings and headbanging meet in a strange but beautiful union.
