About this mod

Adds a new station with 40 songs. Includes a craftable radio, and radios placed in raider dens across the map.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Just a quick little mod to add what I felt was needed flavor to raiders. Mostly fast punk, with a tiny bit of goth and psychobilly for good measure. Also included are a craftable radio for your settlements, as well as radios placed in 12 different raider bases and other appropriate locations across the map.
I get that maybe punk never happened in Fallout, but I've made an effort to make sure it sounds at least "lore-plausible." That means no famous tracks, nothing included just because I liked it, but stylistic continuity above all else. Nothing post-1990, for instance.

All songs acquired through reputable public sources -- either rare unreleased recordings, demos, rough cuts, or simply stuff from the catalogs of bands like Crass or the Avengers whose performances have been made public on Archive.org.

UPDATE 2.0
Some of you might have heard about the problems caused by cell edits in the CK. Basically, if you touch the wrong bit of a cell (worldspace OR interior) it causes "precombined meshes" to up and bone out so the game has to process a lot more data. This occurred when I placed my radios in the world, so I've gone in and removed all the problematic references. Don't worry, the radios are still there! This is just about the guts of it, and it should be fixed now.

The fun part, though: For your trouble, I've included 16 new songs for a grand total of 56! Added a couple live bootlegs to the mix, edited to blend better with the overall tone. I also realized Massachusetts bands had been criminally overlooked in my initial release, so I dug up some old mid-80's Boston hardcore 45's and searched for a few usable tracks by some other great Western Mass bands. Enjoy!

UPDATE 3.0 - NUKA-WORLD RADIO INTEGRATION!
Only download this version if you have Nuka-World.
Includes seven new songs! In addition to the regular station, 3.0 integrates the songs into Red Eye's radio station! You'll hear them in rotation with Red Eye's own songs and stories, and as Red Eye is voiced by Andrew WK, this is all very perfect. Anywhere you'd hear Raider Radio, you'll hear these songs, including from your own amplifier once you place a raider transmitter in a Commonwealth settlement. The original station remains in operation for those who don't want the announcements in between.

OPTIONAL FILE: ALTERNATE FREQUENCY
Stupidly enough, the game uses an actual frequency range. If two mods use the same frequency, they'll clash. The original file uses 88.8, but I've uploaded a version which uses 101.7 instead. Just drag it in and overwrite the original ESP if you're having conflicts.
