  • Ep. 14 Brockhampton - Roadrunner: New Light, New Machine
    Apr 28 2021

    After a two year break from an intense stretch of prolific output, mainstream darlings BROCKHAMPTON return in a deeply personal way. They walk the tightrope between rap and pop, seldomly overseasoning the medley with one style over the other, delivering the bangers and catchy production flourishes they have built their reputation on, but also weave a confessional narrative into the lyricism that hits as heavy as any beat.

  • Ep. 13 OH NO - Xiu Xiu
    Apr 14 2021

    Habitually standing on the edge, whether of a musical frontier or a nervous breakdown, synth oriented art rock project Xiu Xiu blend the cacophonous with the harmonious on this collection of duets. These collaborations are a labor of love. They emerged from musicians helping a fellow artist through a moment of crisis, injecting a softness and playfulness into the tone of some tracks which become easier entry points to the band's otherwise notoriously challenging music.

  • Ep. 12 Smiling With No Teeth - Genesis Owusu
    Mar 29 2021

    This week Co-hosts Zach and Brandon discuss rising Australian musician Genesis Uwusu and his debut LP "Smiling With No Teeth". This debut effort is a tour through Uwusu's influences and is drenched with personality, eagerness to impress, and a refreshing commentary on depression and racism. Brandon also takes an aside to comment on Lil Mariko's debut self titled release, and he is sort of embarrassed about it.

  • Ep. 10 Carnage - Nick Cave and Warren Ellis
    Mar 15 2021

    Long time collaborators Nick Cave and Warren Ellis of The Bad Seeds fame surprisingly issue a new release without the band's moniker. They take the opportunity to meditate and eviscerate the trending tumult of the last year, assembling elements of sound from different eras of their career, yet unable to resist the temptation of returning to the familiarity of their most recent sound on later tracks.

  • Ep. 9 The Shadow I Remember - Cloud Nothings
    Mar 5 2021

    Returning to their origins on their seventh full length release, indie rockers Cloud Nothings churn out a hardcore emo record, consisting of tracks so similar in tone from a lack of new ideas that they are better to digest in a vaccum rather than altogether.
