Great idea for discussion.  I read a lot, but I'd suggest you check out
God, Forgive These Bastards
by Rob Morton
http://microcosmpublishing.com/catalog/books/3863/

It's a nice, small book that has a very nice punk jazz album of the same
name that accompanies it.

 My personal favorite song is
http://taxpayers.bandcamp.com/track/i-love-you-like-an-alcoholic

But, well, though I hate the expression "It's all good!"
