Crush Club

We're back listeners. Or in the words of Darren, 'we're baaaaaaaack'. That's right. Back to get your feet a tapping and arms a shaking at the thought of brand new live music. In a reboot/refresh/re-something we'll be offering you a smorgasbord of top-notch, bargain-price gigs across the capital. Want to see Pist Idiots for under a tenner? Of course you do. Fancy an all-dayer in Camden for the same price. You're bloody right you do. So listen up to a story about how, your calendar for the next month got turned upside down (and filled with a set of terrifyingly good gigs). Plus the usual nonsense you've come to expect from us in the way of 'chat'.Spotify playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5ul0F6nWYfJaxo1OI3KjfG?si=b8c7e45d093e4790Follow us on the socials:https://www.instagram.com/crushclubuk/https://twitter.com/CrushClubUK See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

It’s the first podcast of 2021 people! Yes it’s midway through February but we have been VERY busy with THINGS, so cut us some slack ok? Rob had Covid for god’s sake, get off his sickly back.

Rexico. Hear for yourself which bands we say “I really wish I could see these guys live” and “Remember gigs? And festivals…” about! It’s all coming up in this week’s MINDBLOWING instalment of the Crush Club – Britain’s only bi-monthly indie rock musical podcast EXTRAVAGANZA!See you in 2022,X See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Is that a new festive episode of the Crush Club in your stocking or are you just pleased to see us?We've all nearly made it to the end of 2020, well done us! There have been some highs (Rob's temperature this week) some lows (pretty much everything else), but it's nearly bloody over. So sit back, open a can of sparkling eggnog and get ready to enjoy some of the best new music from artists like: Roxy Girls, Courting, Lice, FEET, EUT, Coach Party and a bunch more.Whichever tier you find yourself in this holiday, make sure you keep safe and have a very Merry Christmas - maybe next year we can all go see some live music together. Lots of festive love,Crush ClubXOr the emojified version: Is that a new

The world has changed irrevocably since we last put out a podcast. Infection numbers continue to rise, increasingly stringent lockdown procedures have been implemented and, most troublingly of all, I've managed to spill smoothie all inside the motorised part of my smoothie maker and now I can't get rid of the fruit flies in my studio apartment. But some things never change listener. We still have the best up and coming artists in our second ever submission special, including: Szou, BlackStarKids, The Stoned Immaculate, The Kind and so many more. We still have the best banter and incisive comments about nicknames that Rob used to have. We still make a ruddy good new music podcast.WE STILL ROCK.And so do you.

The people have spoken and we have listened: Crush Club submission special baby! After sifting through quite literally millions of incredible submissions to the show, we are bringing you the hottest, spiciest, most tantalising hits to make your life just that little bit better. You want Tom John Hall? We hear you. A bit of Art Block in your life? No problem. Craving Sleepyboy? Well then get your listening holes around this because over the next 40 minutes or so we have more incredible new artists than you’ll know what to do with. Awesome music, average banter – Crush Club is back in session. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

From a super safe two-meter distance in the comfort of Rob’s garden, straight to your ears all around the world, the Crush Club is back baby! I’d like to take this opportunity to quash the vicious rumour that we haven’t done a podcast for a few weeks due to me not having internet as I moved house – instead I can confirm that Rob had been imprisoned due to drug trafficking charges. Naughty Nathan! But he’s busted out and we are back with bumper show of brilliant music this week featuring: Naked Giants, Drug Store Romeos, Empty Country, Bananagun and oh so many more.This week we also had the privilege of talking to the super cool Courting, who if they aren’t already one of your favourite bands certainly will be after you find out about their picks for their musical bubble, the inside story for new track David Byrne’s Bad Side and the all important question of Liverpool v Everton. Stay safe and don’t tell the feds where Rob is. Love See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Wowee! Huzzah! SHWOWZER! The Crush Club is back once again to lift you out of the deep dark pit of misery you so quaintly call your life. No need to fret dear listener because we have a jam-packed show, stuffed to the absolute brim with musical treats from: Gum Country, Mazie, Skullcrusher, Phobophobes and like a billion (eight) others. Not only that, but this week we are also joined by none other than Radio 1’s Phil Taggart who shares some unmissable stories from his time in the industry, talks about the creation of his brilliant book ‘Slacker guide to the music industry’ and reminds you of what it sounds like to listen to someone who actually knows what they are talking about when it comes to music. And as if that wasn’t enough, we also catch up with the brilliant Dutch Criminal Record to chat battle of the bands, musical inspirations and the origin of one of the swagest names in indie. Strap yourself in and feel the Gs listener because this is a goodun. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

You ravenous bunch of slimy ingrates. You disgusting, clutching, covetous bunch of new musical hounds. Can you not leave us alone for one week? Just one week we want to not make a hit indie podcast full to the brim with brilliant new bands like Crack Cloud, Lazarus Kane and 2nd Grade, but you won’t let us will you?“We need it!” We hear you cry as you claw your way into our rooms in the dead of night. “We need two incredible interviews with Coach Party and Walt Disco! We must find out about their new EPS, their lives in lockdown and the latest news about niche modes of transport in the Isle of Wight!” You hiss, barely distinguishable as human by this point. Well we’ve got them for you. For another week your musical thirst will be sated. You’ve gained a new episode of your favourite new music podcast, but in getting it what have you lost? I hope it was worth it.You sicken us. #likeandsubscribe #5starreviews #tellyourmatesplz See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

It’s time to raise the gang plank, climb the mast and swab that poop deck, because the good ship Crush Club is setting sail once more, packed to the gills with a cargo of some of the freshest new music that doubloons can buy!We have shantys this week from: Roxy Girls, Team Picture, Pet Shimmers and many more which are almost guaranteed to shiver the timbers of even the most hardened land lubber. And this week our salty crew is joined for a chat by not one, but two scurvy seadogs in the form of the phenomenal Gaygirl and the fantastic Alex Nicol. We parlay about new albums on the horizon, ways of keeping yourself sane in lockdown and the merits of dunking jaffa cakes. Frankly I think someone should be made to walk the plank for that last one, but there you go… The Boat that Rocked or a Titanic failure? You decide!(disclaimer: we are not a boat and are in fact a new music podcast dedicated to new music discovery. We condemn both piracy and grog in the strongest terms possible) See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Before we start, we aren’t saying that we are more important to national morale than Captain Tom Moore’s fundraising attempts. To have the gall to claim that our new music podcast is more beneficial to the psyche of Britain, than a hundred-year-old war veteran’s incredible raising of tens of millions of pounds for frontline workers, would be at best churlish and at worst insulting. We would never say that. However…Coming up this week we have more great bands than you can shake a proverbial stick at: Gaygirl? Check! Laundromat? Check! Mellah? You better believe that’s a check! All that plus tons more, so you can find your new favourite band. Thank us later.Sandwiched between the amazing new music and ropey juvenile chat, we have the sweetest filling possible in the form of an interview with the legendary Felix White of Yala records and The Maccabees. Listen to Nathan franticly pretend he is cool and knows what he is talking about whilst they discuss the past, present and future of Yala records, as well as so so much more good stuff.Did Captain Tom Moore host a new music podcast with Felix on it? Just saying… See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

IT’S THE HAT-TRICK: three weeks in a row for the Crush Club! And the haters said it couldn’t be done. But we proved them wrong. We proved them all wrong.This week we have a veritable smorgasbord of brilliant new music to get you through these tricky times, including: The Wants, Coach Party, Adult Prom and many many more. I know we say this every show, but this really is the best selection of music ever in the history of Western civilisation. It simply is.Not only that, we also get the scoop on writing music in isolation and some pitch perfect Scottish impressions from the Utah hitmakers Indigo Waves. Frankly, I think it was a tad irresponsible that Rob went all the way to America to get that interview done. Think of all the people he must have come into contact with... But those are just the lengths we go to in order to bring you the best in new music.Stay Safe. Stay Inside. Stay Crushed. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Your favourite new music podcast is back for two weeks in a row?! Someone must have been very well behaved in order to get this treat! So settle in, pour yourself a big glass of lemsip and strap that facemask on, because we have twelve brand spanking new artists to cram in your ear holes, including: Pottery, Sharky, Deeper, Beachtape and PVA. But wait…what’s that? You want even more??? Well luckily, we also have an exclusive interview with the indomitable Home Counties in which they discuss everything, from their favourite new bands to their views on the cyclical nature of urban regeneration.New show.
