Three passionate idiots Chris, Charlie and Lucas try the best they can to explain why their favorite albums are absolutely 10/10. Unlike what Radiohead said, the best they can is NOT good enough. PLUS: music news, concert reviews, et cetera, et cetera (second Radiohead reference for posterity). If something rocks, it WILL be on 10/10 You're Great and it WILL NOT be explained concisely.

I'd say this was our Bob Dylan's going electric moment but in reverse but in fact we remain the Bobs of Never Shutting Up.Speaking of speaking we speak with Rapt AKA Jacob Ware about this album and we also listen to his music and nod sagely and weep. Big thank you to him for putting up with our yank antics. Also John Cougar Mellencamp is discussed for unknowable reasons.

    Its Sequel September and you know what that means-- or at least I hope you know what that means because it's difficult to explain and we haven't really nailed it down yet. Regardless, we kick it off with a totally apropos choice, Wolf Parade's second (sequel) album, At Mount Zoomer. Also up for zooming: Lana Del Ray loves some sort of gator-blooded hoodlum and we unpack the drama amidst the lies, and Chris sees a certain musician upwards of 6 times in NYC. Hosted on Acast.

    NEWSFLASH: It turns out all we needed to make this music podcast work was to have someone who could talk about music on it-- we cannot normally do that but luckily we had a blessed savior this week with our wonderful guest Leanne [OTHER IDENTIFYING INFORMATION REDACTED] as we discuss her comfort food album: The Life Pursuit by Belle and Sebastian. No spoilers but we three lads were not prepared for this choice and we are sorry that she's so much better than us at this. Also up for discussion: A chat about James Blunt, which is beautiful (it's true) and also this does count about food fight and I'll believe that until there's a new gospel that says it ain't.

    TONIGHT THIS WEEK TONIGHT we take a somber moment to apologize to you, the listener: we got too lost in the sauce at the zoo and could not keep this episode on the rails as we discuss J Dilla's classic record, Donuts. Also up for discussion: Getting slurped at the Zoo, Ke$ha and Pitbull must remain friends or I will commit atrocities, and the corniest movie that captured our exact demographic and style turns a certain age.

    Hot August Bites continues with what is likely the least hot food there is: salad. Ice cream is not a food that's a desert. Anyways for this enterprising entre we three lads explore Mac DeMarco's 2014 slacksterpiece, Salad Days. Per Wikipedia Mac calls his genre "jizz jazz" which we do not say on the pod or ever again I am buying the flashing thing from Men In Black. Also up for discussion: We mark 20 years since the most famous toilet/bridge disaster, pants cannot be bought in Joe Brandon's America, and Doug the cartoon forces us to make an offensive jingle.

    Hot August Bites continues with what will almost certainly prove to be the only album Chris had never heard before! That's right, its the sensation among 16 year old boys who were 6 when it came out for some reason: Fashion Nugget by Cake. I give my nuggets fashion by swabbing them in atomic sauce, if you're wondering.Also up for discussion: The boys hit T-Mobile park for the express purpose of eating two squares, and Christopher does what he loves to does-- see a show the other two were just too tired to bother with.

PR agencies please hire me I can invent embarrassing words.Also up for discussion: A double BevCheck which comes with a hint of ketchup-smelling romance, Fred Durst promotes a limp dipshit (Drake) and oh yeah, the boys drive to ZooTown USA (CC: Montana) to do a thing they have done a fortnight of times for a Mason/Dixon themed venture out west slash showtime.

    The photo used for this week's album is just one I fished out of a box while cleaning someone's house, showing a grandpa looking forlornly at an astronaut. Unlike the ones with VK our cat or Chris with the cookies, there is no inside joke here, it just is what it is-- and the same can be said of tonight's album Celebration Rock. It is Celebration Rock.Also rock for celebration: Katy Perry is banned from the Khive, Joyce Manor is unanimously voted to rule, and Chris' ladder, where art thou? Hosted on Acast.

    This weeks episode answers the age old question: What if Alvin and the Chipmunks jammed hard and loud? Turns out the answer is Spiderman of the Rings but the second answer would've been Bromst, Dan Deacon's less-chipmunky (Theodore has gone solo) but still pretty jamming second album. Why were there like three lady chipmunks did they ever explain that? That was really weird I didn't like it. Also up for discussion: a slurp from down south, Katy Perry's pop bubble has burst (word is she's changing her name to Katherine), and We Now Have Bisexual Lighting. Hosted on Acast.

    In a nation called Condiment Country a very special album is moving and grooving and its name is Emperor Tomato Ketchup (it's a monarchy). In this week's episode we discuss the divine right of kings and also whether or not the album by Stereolab is a jam which it is-- and it had better be because I'm hearing they made it in a lab for stereos. Also up for discussion: Hot dogs, bananas and beverages as we slowly morph into a food review podcast that bizarrely ends with a music segment. TONIGHT Hosted on Acast.

    The prequel returns for the first time to right the wrongs of the future present past. We recorded this episode some time back in case we had a week where we couldn't meet up and then Lucas' mouth exploded, Chris went on a long family vacation and Charlie puttered around and took a nap since that's his two friends accounted for. In this episode we reveal why we named these bonus episodes such a stupid name, and also we name 10 concerts we went to that we enjoyed. Please enjoy as it MAY PERHAPS BE OF INTEREST WE HOPE.

    Chris is getting frustrated that we are not superfamous yet so he insisted we do the obvious thing and cover an album that no one has ever heard of. Good thing the album he chose is saucy and bossy and sounds 100% exactly like Bee Thousand by Guided by Voices and also exactly like Who Could It Be Now if that was written by Sting or some other non Australian. Note to self: google if Sting from Australia.Also up for discussion: One of us admits to things that would never hold up in a court of law so don't even try it, Drake buys a velveteen car, and a double BevCheck to whet yr whistle.

    In this episode we do not talk about what Kanye has been up to lately. I know that's morally irresponsible because inaction in the face of hatred is complicity but also: we didn't want to do it! It's bad to do Nazi stuff, sorry but you already knew that. That damning preamble aside, this is a good album so we enjoyed talking about it. The episode is kind of a grower because Chris woke us up from crucial naptime to record so we're a little sleepy off the top, but it does get there!Also up for discussion: Hunter Biden gets the aux cable during a lapdance, the bong ripped 'round the world, and a truly terrible BevCheck Hosted on Acast.

    This week we celebrate the 20th anniversary of The Go! Team's criminally underrated (and criminally produced) debut album Thunder, Lightning, Strike. For like five years I could have sworn it was called Tiger, Lightning, Strike because of the Tiger on the cover. To never make that error again I've replaced the tiger with our horrible baby, Violet. Also found in this episode: Music is ranked by someone who is not us and therefore they mess it all up, we receive a crucial bit of nipple news, and stick around for an incomprehensible game-slash-prophetic-vision.
