#075: Fitzcarraldo by The Frames
Tuesday Jun 19, 2012
Tuesday Jun 19, 2012
With the release of Glen Hansard's first solo record, we thought it was about time to revisit his pre-Swell Season, pre-Once band, The Frames, and their sophomore album from 1996, Fitzcarraldo. Many people know Hansard from the movie (and now Tony Award winning broadway musical) Once and his other band The Swell Season, but Hansard actually cut his teeth with his Dublin, Ireland outfit The Frames starting the early 1990s.
For Tim and Jason, this album goes back to the college radio days, and they've been singing it's praises ever since. Find out why this album is "criminally overlooked," and how that led to an end-of-show tangent about a new music-based reality show called Rock Cops coming to a channel near you very soon (or not).
Songs in this Episode:
Intro - Monument
5:21 - History of the Band
12:47 - Revelate
17:00 - Monument
21:53 - Revelate
24:49 - Angel At My Table
27:31 - In This Boat Together
30:16 - Giving It All Away
Outro - Evergreen

#074: Do The Collapse by Guided By Voices
Tuesday Jun 12, 2012
Tuesday Jun 12, 2012
With Guided By Voices reunited and releasing their second of three (!) albums in 2012, we decided to spend episode #74 reviewing the 1999 album Do the Collapse.
When Robert Pollard abandoned his trademark lo-fi sound to release a major label album, produced by the legendary Cars leader Ric Ocasek, it's safe to the say the reviews were mixed. And when we say mixed, we mean numerous die-hard fans hated it with a passion. But is their vitriol justified, or is this an under-appreciated gem in the GBV catalog? Tune in to find out.
Songs in this Episode:
Intro - Surgical Focus
3:11 - History of the Band
15:49 - Teenage FBI
19:37 - Surgical Focus
22:20 - Wormhole
24:29 - Hold On Hope
27:16 - Liquid Indian
29:19 - An Unmarketed Product
Outro - Zoo Pie

#073: Not Meant For This World by Asteroid B-612

Tuesday Jun 05, 2012
On episode #73 we head back down under thanks to a suggestion by our Australian friend-of-the-show, Gavin and take a listen to the 1997 album Not Meant for This World by Asteroid B-612.
The early punk of The Stooges and MC5 is prevalent in the sound of Asteroid B-612: raw energy, loud guitars and a big chorus. But does the band pull it off as well as the revered Hellacopters or ? Tune in to find out.
Songs in this Episode:
Intro - Emotional Tattoo
3:47 - History of the Band
11:52 - Thanks for Nuthin'
15:16 - Destination Blues

28:09 - Farewell to the Cosmic Commander
Outro - True Romance
