1982 studio album by XTC
POPULARITY
From handing a tape to John Peel to encouraging Colin Moulding to write songs, Steve Warren is a key part of the XTC story. In a fascinating interview, he recalls befriending Andy Partridge as a child, working as a roadie for the Helium Kidz and touring the world with XTC. Also in this episode, Gaz Barrett describes how he commissioned a mural of English Settlement in the centre of Swindon.

Over at Deep Cuts we're riding a high from this much good rock ‘n' roll. First we go Deep into XTC with side 3 of English Settlement, then dive into Echo & the Bunnymen's Ocean Rain.Pictured: XTC
This week we're discussing every album by XTC. Led by Andy Partridge, few bands have the creative journey that XTC did. They started out as blistering post-punk, grew into an accessible 80s pop act, went on to pioneer modern alternative, only to end up tossing in a bunch of orchestras, wasting all their money in the process. By the end of their journey, the band was whittled down to two members who hated each other. This is a good one, so strap in.Closing track: “I Am the Audience” from Go 2 (1978)Spotify playlist on XTChttps://open.spotify.com/user/motherpuncherincPatreonhttps://www.patreon.com/everyalbumeverMerchhttps://pandermonkey.creator-spring.com/Instagram:Mike @pandermonkeyAlex @motherpuncherMike's Picks:White Music (1978) — Best Album, Personal FavoriteWasp Star: Apple Venus Volume 2 (2000) — Worst Album, Least FavoriteAlex's Picks:Drums and Wires (1979) — Best AlbumWhite Music (1978) — Personal FavoriteThe Big Express (1984) — Worst AlbumWasp Star: Apple Venus Volume 2 (2000) — Least FavoriteAlbums we discussed this episode…White Music (1978)Go 2 (1978)Drums and Wires (1979)Black Sea (1980)English Settlement (1982)Mummer (1983)The Big Express (1984)Skylarking (1986)Oranges & Lemons (1989)Nonsuch (1992)Apple Venus Volume 1 (1999)Wasp Star: Apple Venus Volume 2 (2000)
TERRY CHAMBERS is the drummer from XTC and he's back at The ProgCast to chat with me about his upcoming tour with EXTC - playing the classic catalogue in both the UK and America in the coming weeks. Plus: Terry and I look back at 40 years of English Settlement.
Join us this week as we discuss The Lost Colony of Roanoke!Off the eastern coast of North America, a tiny colony was established in 1587. If the settlers had not vanished for mysterious reasons, the settlement would have been the first permanent English colony in the New World. The lost colony of Roanoke is one of America's most infamous mysteries, with cryptic hints left at the abandoned hamlet and a lack of actual proof leading to wild conjecture and speculations.

In the early years of the 17th Century, religious warfare was raging in Europe and England was struggling with various reform factions that caused deep divisions and violence. Recent archaeological evidence from Jamestown suggests that the Colony was far more religiously diverse than previously realized and those divides had an enormous impact on the shape of the Colony's politics and governing principles. Our host, John Ericson, will explore this history with guest speaker Mark Summers.Mark Summers is the Director of Public and Youth Programming at Jamestowne Rediscovery. Summers has an expertise in the English Reformation with a focus on how the religious divides in England carried over to the first permanent English Settlement in Virginia. Summers has an undergraduate degree in History from Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University and a Master's from the University of Mississippi. Intro and outro created by Thomas Fosdick. Project supported by a grant from Virginia Humanities.

Before New England was New England, it was the Dawnland. A region that remains the homeland of numerous Native American peoples, including the Wampanoag. Over the next two episodes, we’ll explore the World of the Wampanoag before and after 1620, a year that saw approximately 100 English colonists enter the Wampanoags’ world. Those English colonists have been called the “Pilgrims” and this year, 2020, marks the 400th anniversary of their arrival in New England. T he arrival of these English settlers brought change to the Wampanoags’ world. But many aspects of Wampanoag life and culture persisted, as did the Wampanoag who lived, and still live, in Massachusetts and beyond. In this episode, we’ll investigate the cultures, society, and economy of the Wampanoags’ 16th- and 17th-century world. This focus will help us develop a better understanding for the peoples, places, and circumstances of the World of the Wampanoag. This two-episode “World of the Wampanoag” series is made possible through support from Mass Humanities.

**Oranges & Lemons** es el undécimo álbum de estudio y el segundo álbum doble de la banda inglesa **XTC**, lanzado el 27 de febrero de 1989 por Virgin Records. Es el seguimiento de Skylarking de 1986. El título (derivado de la canción infantil del mismo nombre) se eligió en referencia a la mala situación financiera de la banda en ese momento, mientras que la música se caracteriza como una actualización de la psicodelia de los años sesenta. Recibió una aclamada crítica y se convirtió en el álbum más alto de la banda desde el English Settlement de 1982, llegando al número 28 en el Reino Unido y al número 44 en los Estados Unidos.
When the late 70s arrived, many musicians wanted to sweep away the “dinosaurs” of rock (imagine that in 2018). Punk was about to sweeping away the complexities (among other things) and getting back to raw honest energy. Many musos liked the rawness and energy of punk but felt they had stronger musical chops that they wanted to apply to that realm, as well as explore other stylistic avenues. 1977 saw the release of the debut album of one such band from Swindon, XTC. Welcome to episode 119 of Love That Album – the second episode for November 2018. Like The Beatles before them, the back catalogue of XTC shows a development where the band that released their final album scarcely sound like the band that released their first. By 1982, they were only five years into their recording career, but the album of that year, English Settlement bore little resemblance to White Music released only a few years prior. For this episode of the podcast, I welcome guitarist and first-time guest, Geoff Pearlman, as well as the return of Sydney guitarist Shane Pacey to focus on English Settlement as well as the development of the band that reached that point. The discussion is wide and varied covering the musicianship of the band and the different songwriting approaches of Andy Partridge and Colin Moulding. We also discuss how the songs on the album covered social issues like domestic violence, gun ownership, and the fragility of modern existence. We had a wonderful time and I thank Shane and Geoff for working their senses overtime for the show. I even found an excuse to do my Tom Waits impersonation. You can download the podcast from Spotify, iTunes (search for “Love That Album podcast”) or from the website at http://lovethatalbum.blogspot.com.

If you’d consider writing an iTunes review or recommending the show to a friend, I’d be immensely grateful.
In the first segment of the show as usual Patrick tells us whats happening in the Horror world with the news. Up first is a awesome video titled "Babashook" which is a music video that gives the Babadook a Drag makeover. Then of course the most anticipated season of Rick and Morty will be coming out July 30th and we are so stoked to see what the creators have in store for us. Another bit of news is that Leatherface will be an exclusive DirecTV release on September 21, 2017, with a limited theatrical run and full VOD release potentially on October 20, 2017. The main discussion of the show is about The Roanoke Colony, founded by Sir John White in August of 1587. 115 English settlers arrived on the Island began colonizing the permanent English Settlement, ordered by Queen Elizabeth I. Later in that year, Sir White left Roanoke heading back to England, to replenish supplies, but upon returning there was a mighty naval battle between Spain and England and the Queen ordered all available ship to help fight. It wasn't until 1590 that Sir White finally returned to Roanoke, but upon returning, he saw no one. Insert spooky ghost noise here. There are many plausible theories as to what happened to those settlers who stayed behind, but of course we have to find the most ridiculous theories and talk about them. Some say the settlers resorted to Cannibalism, others say Aliens came and abducted them, in what would be the largest abduction in our history. But many simply do not have the answers and we will probably know what happened to those people. Later in the show, we have our Versus segment and this week it was the Patrick, the reigning champ against new comer Angel. Patrick was the Antichrist who gets stronger by drinking blood, and Angel had Carrie who multiplies when wet. We decided that the Antichrist wins this match, making Patrick 2-0.
