Send us a textThe Barn and Midwest Mixtape Podcast are proud to welcome Fergal Lawler, drummer of the iconic Irish band The Cranberries, for a special conversation celebrating the 30th Anniversary Editions of their breakthrough album, No Need to Argue.The reissue arrives in stunning fashion with a limited three-LP vinyl set featuring remixes by Iain Cook of CHVRCHES, rare live recordings, a demo of “Zombie,” and the band's unforgettable MTV: Unplugged performance. Fans have long awaited the official release of the group's legendary 1995 Unplugged set, and that wait is finally over: beginning November 7, 2025, MTV Unplugged will be available for the first time as a standalone release on vinyl, CD, and digital via Island Records/UMe. A special colored vinyl edition with alternate cover art will also be available exclusively through Complex.Originally taped on February 14, 1995 at the Howard Gilman Opera House in Brooklyn, the intimate nine-song performance aired two months later during the sixth season of MTV Unplugged. Following the release of their worldwide smash No Need to Argue, the setlist showcased the band's blend of vulnerability and power with songs like “Dreaming My Dreams,” “Ode To My Family,” “Empty,” “Zombie,” and the title track. They also revisited earlier hits like “Linger” and previewed unreleased gems “Free to Decide” and “I'm Still Remembering,” which would later appear on 1996's To The Faithful Departed.Perhaps most special is “Yesterday's Gone”, a song written by Dolores O'Riordan and Noel Hogan just one day before the show and performed only during that recording. “The only time we ever played it was for MTV,” Hogan recalls.Fergal reflected on the honor of joining the legendary Unplugged series, which previously hosted R.E.M., Pearl Jam, Nirvana, and The Cure:“It was a really chilled, relaxed vibe with the audience sitting on the floor. To be following in the footsteps of those artists was incredible.”Backed by Electra Strings, the quartet that had also joined them on Later with Jools Holland, The Cranberries delivered a performance critics and fans alike have deemed one of the finest in the history of the series. Publications like SPIN and Mixdown have ranked it among the best Unplugged sessions ever, while fans have clamored for its release for decades.With the anniversary reissues of No Need to Argue and the long-awaited arrival of MTV Unplugged as a standalone release, 2025 promises to be a landmark year for The Cranberries' legacy.“I'm really proud that the songs we wrote didn't need all the bells and whistles you get in the studio to sound good,” Noel shared. “They worked just as well stripped down and played acousticallwww.BetterHelp.com/TheBarnhttp://www.betterhelp.com/TheBarn http://www.betterhelp.com/TheBarnThis episode is sponsored by www.betterhelp.com/TheBarn and brought to you as always by The Barn Media Group.

Matchbox Twenty frontman Rob Thomas has a new solo album out, titled All Night Days. It's his first since 2019 and was made amidst a move out of Thomas's longtime record label, as well as a separate Matchbox Twenty release. He joins us for a Listening Party.

The past 3 decades have brought their share of ups and downs for Feeder. They've enjoyed 11 top ten albums, and various hit singles, but had to weather the tragic loss of drummer Jon Lee in January 2002. It was against this backdrop that frontman Grant Nicholas returned to studio alongside bassist Taka Hirose to produce Feeder's most poignant and life-affirming album “Comfort In Sound”. The album is getting reissue this month, and they will be undertaking a UK tour, playing the album in full for the first time. It's a rare look back for the band, who have released 4 new albums in the last decade including a double album “Black/Red” which came out last year. Grant was a guest on the podcast a few years back, and I'm really grateful he was willing to come back on. Instagram: @sendingsignalspodcast

It is more than a myth that forging a career from the Western side of Australia poses many more challenges than other music hubs around Australia. The isolation, costs of travel, reduced market, and subsequent lessening of opportunities faced are definitely quite difficult to overcome. Difficult? Yes. Impossible? No. Perth alt-rockers Late 90s are living proof.Drawing influence from the likes of alt-metal icons Deftones, alt-pop and rock legends Paramore, and emo kings Basement, LATE 90s have shaped their own sound into something reminiscent of past greats, all the while tying together elements of something so fresh and distinct. With over 2.1 million Spotify streams and having spent recent years touring with the likes of Neck Deep, Taking Back Sunday, State Champs, Hot Mulligan, Free Throw, Short Stack, Slowly Slowly, and more, the band have recently announced their inclusion on the 2025 BIGSOUND line-up, which will see them bringing the heat to Brisbane this September.It is an opportunity well deserved for the rapidly emerging band, who hit the opposite side of the country to their home base from September 2 to 5, armed with their explosive new single Low and an appetite for success. HEAVY caught up with vocalist Steve Loreck to find out more. With over 120 bands performing over the three days of BigSound, HEAVY questions Loreck on why punters should mark the name of Late 90s on their to-see-list."I think we're the only heavy band playing out of Perth, so that's a definite reason," he replied. "There isn't that many bands that have got those heavier influences, so I think we do a good job of representing that more alternative scene. I think our music is not too heavy where people might be put off by it, but they might still enjoy it if they're not necessarily into the heavier stuff. So yeah, we're kind of the middle ground, I guess, for the punter. The music we make is a little different, so I think people will like it."In the full interview, Steve tells us what BigSound means to emerging local artists and the Australian music scene, the networking side of the event and how best to handle it, a brief history of the band and their sound, their new single Low and how it represents Late 90s moving forward, future music and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

We don't throw the word :"icon" around here too often, but when you're a founding member of two of the biggest Goth Rock and Alternative Rock bands ever, the label is deserving. David J is partly responsible for shaping an entire culture, not many can say that. This week sees the release of two new ambitious projects - one a book of poetry called Rhapsody, Threnody & Prayer, as well as a new album of some of those poems put to music called The Mother Tree. A US tour also kicks off this week to support it. David tells us all about his musical career including the current state of both of his bands, how royalties are distributed, how the success of "So Alive" changed his life, and one of the best Bowie stories we've ever heard. It's pretty fun hearing from an "icon" like David. Enjoy!  www.davidjhaskins.com www.patreon.com/c/thehustlepod

We cover a range of topics including their musical influences, Indy car racing, songwriting, developing a presence in the music scene, and playing live gigs. As we wrapped up, they were kind enough to play a couple of songs live so be sure to stick around for that. So no more waiting…let's get to it!Songs:Can't Change Me (Chris Cornell cover) 57:53Million Miles (Late To Everything original) 1:00:06Late To Everything Instagram: @officiallatetoeverythingBands On The RadarInstagram: @bandsontheradarWeb: bandsontheradar.blogFacebook: @bandsontheradarYouTube: @bandsontheradarGmail: bandsontheradar@gmail.com

This week, we blast off with a tale as old as grift: Fyre Fest 2 has been postponed—again—proving that you really can fail upward if you squint hard enough and wear enough white linen. Over at Automattic, employees discovered secret watermarks in their internal comms, because what workplace isn't better with a sprinkle of corporate surveillance cosplay? Meanwhile, Katy Perry took a joyride to the upper atmosphere with Gayle King and Bezos' better half, giving us the 2025 edition of the cringiest “Imagine”-style celebrity moment yet. Spoiler: no one needed this.In Elon World™, things are somehow even weirder. Seth Rogen dropped some truth bombs about Silicon Valley's MAGA leanings, only to have them surgically removed from the Breakthrough Prize stream. Musk, for his part, is managing his growing empire of baby mamas like a Bond villain with a baby registry. Add in a cringe-filled offer to a YouTuber to become Space Karen's next broodmare, and we've officially entered peak simulation. Meanwhile, whistleblowers are spilling DOGE secrets, OpenAI is building a social network (because we clearly don't have enough doomscrolling options), and 4chan has finally been hacked into oblivion. Pour one out—for the internet's dumpster fire.Also in the news: Google lost a big ad tech monopoly case (cue tiny violins), China is no longer buying the “autonomous” car hype after a fatal crash, and Trump's FCC chair is threatening Comcast for not being enough like Fox News (as if that's the journalistic gold standard). The Pentagon's nerd squad resigned after butting heads with DOGE, Reality Labs burned $45 billion like it was going out of style, and AI customer service bots are now inventing policies out of thin air. Oh, and if your AI thinks your Python package has a delivery issue—you're not crazy, it probably hallucinated it.
