As broadcast October 1, 2021 with plenty of extra attitude for you podcast punters.  We welcome one of our favorites back to the show tonight a week after they dropped their 2nd career album.  Alex Dezen & Amber Bollinger have not just been putting together one of the wildest post-punk outfits over the last several years with Broken Baby, but they have also put running one of the best homegrown rock labels out there as well with Poor Man Records.  We talked with the duo about their new album "Late Stage Optimism," which of course divulged into many different arguments like the merits of spiders, along with an endless game of "face on" between the two.#feelthegravityTracklisting:Part I (00:00)The White Stripes – Fell In Love With A GirlThe Replacements – Bastards of YoungYoung Winona – Killer DaisiesEgg Drop Soup – Whiskey PriestShopping – InitiativeSweeping Promises – Hunger for a Way OutTummyache – MedianFEET - Ad BluePart II (33:03)Night Hikes - IonaHuman Barbie – Get A LifeJaguar Sun – Make It OutExtra Special – I Hate LoveMarianne Faithfull – Broken EnglishBroken Baby – MeaniacBroken Baby – Jack White Money Part III (63:23)Broken Baby – He Likes MePom Poko – Like A LadyGo Fever – Long RunOhmme – MineReckling – SpidersConcrete Blonde – JoeyPart IV (95:05)Broken Baby – Cloud Coverage The Exploding Hearts – Sleeping Aides and RazorbladesTummyache – DIY!!Pip Blom – You Don't Want ThisSnowy Band – Living with MyselfBlur – Tender

KGUP PRESENTS caught up LA-based band, Broken Baby to talk about their upcoming EP, out later this year. Broken Baby is an uncompromising rock band with post-punk edge and melodic appetites. Formed out of the ashes of failed relationships, both romantic and musical, Amy Bollinger and Alex Dezen wrote and recorded all the songs from their debut EP in the span of 2 weeks, honing their singular, collaborative work without pretension or extravagance. Their boomy, low-fi sound soothes and scrapes in equal measure, with Bollinger’s bright, wispy vocals turning into adrenal-fueled rants with little warning. Caught somewhere between Savages, The Jesus Lizard, B-52s, and The Eurythmics, Broken Baby is a band for punching the air and driving a little too fast.

This one felt like such a busy show, yet we only managed to play 4 artists in 2 hours; I don’t think we’ve ever done that before! We had to pay tribute to the late, great John Bottomley, who left us this week, but left behind a lot of great music. RIP. We look forward to my trip to finally see the Damnwells live, and we were joined in-studio by Taylor Ashton of hot up-and-coming roots band Fish & Bird to chat about their great new record and upcoming shows.
