In this episode, we shine a spotlight on the power-pop trio Material Issue and their iconic debut album, “International Pop Overthrow.” Released in 1991, this album is brimming with infectious hooks, jangly guitars, and frontman Jim Ellison's heartfelt lyrics. We explore the band's origins, their rise in the Chicago circuit, and the creation of their cult-classic debut, which features standout tracks like “Valerie Loves Me,” “Diane,” and “Renee Remains the Same.” Whether you're a longtime fan or new to the band, this episode is a celebration of “International Pop Overthrow” and its place in pop music history. ********************* EARLY ACCESS FOR PATREON SUBSCRIBERS!

Strap in for a time capsule adventure, as Ted Ansani of Material Issue takes us back, on an episode thick with nostalgia. He recounts tales of how a couple of Columbia College Chicago music enthusiasts, and drummer Mike Zelenko, turned into a band that left an indelible mark on the power-pop landscape. We talk beginnings, the transition from drumsticks to bass strings, and the twists with Mercury Records. Ted's memories are a rare tour pass to the early '90s, offering an insider perspective on creating hits that outlasted their era.Reminisce and groove with us as we explore the quirks behind the making of anthems like "Valerie Loves Me" and "Diane," tracks that continue to resonate with fans across the globe. Ted's reflections on the documentary "Out of Time: The Material Issue Story" provide an unexpected depth, while we also celebrate the joy of fans shouting back the lyrics to "Very First Lie" at shows, a testament to Material Issue's enduring connection with their audience.Yet, the episode takes a poignant turn as we reflect on the band's struggle to navigate the grunge-dominated waters of the '90s music scene and the tragic loss of frontman Jim Ellison. The conversation highlights the resilience of Material Issue and the bittersweet moments that punctuated their journey. Through the highs of hearing their song "Renee Remains the Same" on the radio, to the lows of the industry's fickle nature, we honor the legacy of a band that, against all odds, captured the hearts of power-pop aficionados and left behind melodies that still echo in the hearts of listeners. Join us for a heartfelt tribute to Material Issue, a band that rocked hard and left us with a soundtrack for the ages.

Last year we had a lot of fun (and learned a lot) during our Australian music of the 90s episode. In fact, we had so much fun, we decided to turn it into new series we’re calling “Digging Your Scene,” where we explore a city or region that made an impact on alternative and indie music in the 1990s. To kick off the series, we’re heading to a city once described (like a few others) as “the next Seattle,” Chicago, Illinois. To help us getting dig deep into the Chicago music scene, we’ve invited back Andy Derer of the Chicago-based Andy Derer Show podcast, Chicagoist Senior Editor Jim Kopeny and Annie Zaleski, writer for AV Club, Salon and more, to talk the history, the bands, the venues, the record stores, the legacy and more of Chicago. Songs in this Episode: Intro - Chicago Medley (The Smashing Pumpkins, Veruca Salt, Urge Overkill, Liz Phair, Ministry) 12:17 - Suffocation by The Pulars 25:15 - Valerie Loves Me by Material Issue 33:11 - Lotion by Wesley Willis 51:58 - Sugar, We’re Going Down by Fall Out Boy 55:51 - Get Over It by OK Go Outro - Via Chicago by Wilco Follow on Twitter / Facebook Request a 2016 Review / Subscribe at Patreon
