#306: Unit by Regurgitator
Tuesday Nov 22, 2016
Tuesday Nov 22, 2016
Our latest requested review features a band from Australian we were completely unfamiliar with - Regurgitator. Their second album Unit came out in 1997, going triple platinum, producing hit singles and winning music awards. It’s an eclectic mix of pop, rock and punk powered by ‘80s synth sounds and melodies galore. We previously encountered Spiderbait and enjoyed their genre-hopping approach, does Regurgitator match their success? Tune in to find out.

#305: Roundtable - Sophomore Slump Revisited - Razorblade Suitcase by Bush
Tuesday Nov 15, 2016
Tuesday Nov 15, 2016
For our second sophomore slump revisited episode of 2016, we jump in the time machine again to revisit 1996 and check out the second album from Bush, the Steve Albini-produced Razorblade Suitcase. Following up a massively successful debut with five hit singles is a tough job, but doing so in short period of time makes the job even harder. It sold half as many and failed to place as many hit singles on the charts, so we’ve invited back Matt Wardlaw (Ultimate Classic Rock, Lost Together Podcast) and Joe Royland (Sit And Spin VideoCast) to help us figure out if this is a true sophomore slump or an album worth redeeming.
Songs in this Episode:
Intro - Swallowed from Razorblade Suitcase
8:32 - Machinehead from Sixteen Stone
18:33 - Personal Holloway from Razorblade Suitcase
31:55 - Mouth from Razorblade Suitcase
41:19 - Mouth (The Stingray Mix) from Deconstructed
Outro - Greedy Fly from Razorblade Suitcase

#304: Building by Sense Field
Tuesday Nov 08, 2016
Tuesday Nov 08, 2016
Our latest requested review gives us a chance to revisit the 1996 album Building, the third release by Sense Field. Concise, urgent songs packed with guitar and vocal hooks, the album flies by at just thirty five minutes. We dig into it, and find sounds and styles varying from Bob Mould to The Offspring to Tool. Give a listen, and let us know if you agree with our take on Building.

#303: American Psycho by Misfits
Tuesday Nov 01, 2016
Tuesday Nov 01, 2016
Thanks to a requested review, we get revisit the 1997 album American Psycho by the Misfits. Minus founder/original lead singer Glenn Danzig, this album saw the band return after years of being an underground influence upon bands like Metallica, Guns ‘n Roses and others. The “horror punk” sound created by the band shifts in the direction of the bands it influenced, incorporating a decidedly more metal sound, while still utilizing the compact song structures, gang vocals and melodic hooks familiar to the band rom the 80s. But at seventeen tracks, is it too much of a good thing?
