    The War On Drugs
    Oct 25 2021
    John and Justin welcome guest Brian Brinkman of Osiris Media to talk about The War on Drugs. We do some deeper listening into their first four studio albums in anticipation of their new album I Don't Live Here Anymore coming out on October 29th, 2021.

    We talk about the evolution of Adam Granduciel's sound from 2008's Wagonwheel Blues to 2011's Slave Ambient, loudly proclaim the greatness that is 2014's Lost in the Dream, and discuss 2017's major label debut, A Deeper Understanding.

    Our theme music is provided by the incredibly talented Thomas Wing. The updated version of Get Into A Better Mood is so great that we include it in full at the end of the episode! Check out his Bandcamp page for more great music:

  • Metallica

    Metallica
    Sep 21 2021
    John and Justin explore the first half of Metallica's discography from 1983's debut Kill 'Em All through 1991's self-titled album, AKA the Black album. Combing through the band's glory days with two distinct perspectives (John has been a fan since childhood, Justin has only heard snippets on the radio) yields an interesting conversation about exactly when the band reached the peak of their genre-defining thrash metal sound. Whether you're a jaded veteran or a heavy metal newbie, we think you'll gain a new appreciation for Metallica via our closer consideration of Kill 'Em All, Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, ...And Justice For All, and the Black album.

  • St. Vincent

    St. Vincent
    Jun 9 2021
    John and Justin explore the catalogue of multi-instrumentalist Annie Clark, AKA St. Vincent, starting with her stunning debut, 2007's Marry Me, and finishing with 2021’s Daddy's Home. This deeper listening project uncovered her emotional vulnerability and furthered our appreciation of her musical chops, including her searing guitar, her vocal strength, and her ability to pivot within a song to new emotional territory with keyboards and synthesizers. We hope you'll dive into our track-by-track analysis to gain your own appreciation for St. Vincent.

    Twenty-five years after hearing her stunning debut album as teenagers, John and Justin do some deeper listening to Fiona Apple's entire catalogue as grown-ups. This episode discusses the talented singer-songwriter's back story, 1996's Tidal, and When The Pawn..., her 1999 follow-up. We hope you enjoy the track-by-track analysis and tangents as much as we did!

  • Animal Collective

    Animal Collective
    Apr 8 2021
    Tackling the meat of Animal Collective’s discography, Justin hopes to convert John into a fan. We run from 2004’s Sung Tongs through Feels, Strawberry Jam, Merriweather Post Pavilion, and finish with 2012’s Centipede Hz. We go track-by-track through Animal Collective's most prolific period, highlighting what we love and connecting dots as the band's sound dramatically changes. There's a good reason that Animal Collective was the most heralded indie band of the mid-to-late 2000s!
