Podcasts about king creosote jon hopkins bats

 Tomorrow morning we start recording the new Meursault album: The Organ Grinder's Monkey. The only problem is, we have no idea whatsoever what's going to be on this album, just yet, but we're going to have a go nevertheless. The album is actually being fan-funded, so we thought it should probably also be fan-chosen, so if you buy a copy of the album from our Kickstarter page, you then get to vote for five songs, Meursault ones or covers, and we'll record the most popular ones for the album - hence the title. Anyhow, picking an album involving so many potential covers is a nightmare. So many great ideas, so many awful-but-brilliant ideas, so many just plain awful ideas, and you just don't know where to stop! So this podcast is a combination of the most popular tunes, the most popular bands, and some brilliant covers by bands who have already done an amazing job of this kind of shit. As to the final album - hell, who knows, you've about as much idea of how it'll turn out as I do! 01. The Flaming Lips - I Just Can't Get You Out of My Head (00.22)02. Wolf Parade - I'll Believe in Anything (09.27)03. King Creosote & Jon Hopkins - Bats in the Attic (16.44)04. Willard Grant Conspiracy - Fare Thee Well (20.10)05. Admiral Radley - I'm All Fucked on Beer (26.47)06. The Japanese War Effort - Face Like a Lemon (Live on Fresh Air Radio ) (32.44)07. Baccara - Yes Sir, I Can Boogie (35.37)08. Dead Kennedys - Viva Las Vegas (45.40)09. Clem Snide - Beautiful (51.49)10. The Mountain Goats - Dilaudid (59.19)11. The Magnetic Fields - All the Desperate Things You Made Me Do (1.01.27)

After writing about the SAY Award, I thought I might well do a podcast about it, given there are more than enough ace bands and ace records on that list, last year's list and I assume next year's list to make a couple of podcasts. I play a couple of shocking, scandalous omissions from this and last year's long- and shortlists, and stamp my little foot about them. I play a couple of tracks from bands who I reckon should be in with a very strong shout of making next year's shortlist.  And I play a random tune by David Thomas Broughton because he, along with Rick Redbeard who I tip for next year's shortlist, is playing a show in Edinburgh this week.  David on Thursday with Rachael Dadd and Ichi, and Rick on Saturday with the awesome Ian Humberstone.  And again, I try and remind people not to get too worked up about this kind of thing, because, well, if no-one agrees with you that something is excellent, it should hardly make you love it any the less, should it. And equally, being told that yes, you are right, this album is good, shouldn't particularly improve your enjoyment of it should it. So these things are here to be bickered over and are good fun, as well as being fantastic for the artists who win them, but they aren't of course to be taken too seriously. 01. Meursault - Untitled (00.26)02. PAWS - Bird Inside Birddcage, Ribcage Inside Bird (06.40)03. Rick Redbeard - Any Way I Can (14.35)04. David Thomas Broughton - River Lay (20.10)05. Now Wakes the Sea - Propranolol (28.47)06. RM Hubbert - Car Song (With Aidan Moffat and Alex Kapranos) (35.42)07. Django Django - Love's Dart (39.59)08. King Creosote & Jon Hopkins - Bats in the Attic (45.36)09. Rob St. John - Stainforth Force (52.54)10. The Pictish Trail - I Will Pour it Down (1.02.06)

The baubles in question would be twofold: Firstly, the Song, by Toad readers are awarding their own baubles for the year's musical endeavours, both in terms of anointing their song and their album of the year. And secondly, the very second I post this I am heading up into town to Kid Canaveral's Christmas Baubles, their second of what I assume will become an annual Christmas knees-up, this time hosted at Edinburgh's rather amazing Summerhall. This week on Song, by Toad I will be publishing my own top twenty albums of the year, and then moving on to the Festive Fifty - basically your average predictable blogger's December rituals.  If you don't like it I guess you're a bit stuck until the new year I'm afraid. 01.
