Its Sequel September and you know what that means-- or at least I hope you know what that means because it's difficult to explain and we haven't really nailed it down yet. Regardless, we kick it off with a totally apropos choice, Wolf Parade's second (sequel) album, At Mount Zoomer. Also up for zooming: Lana Del Ray loves some sort of gator-blooded hoodlum and we unpack the drama amidst the lies, and Chris sees a certain musician upwards of 6 times in NYC. Hosted on Acast.

In the S3 finale of the PRP, Adam colloquiums with stoic road runner, enthusiastic cycling tutee, passionate licensed clinical social worker and all around good vibes ambassador Margaret Levasseur who has been preparing for the Holiday Hustle Half Marathon on December 2nd, 2023. Ustina Shives, hobby jogger extraordinaire, passionate yogi and ardent licensed professional counselor joins the show to discuss all things running, Margaret and therapy.  Margaret and Ustina provide the PRP listenership with a masterclass on the significance of mental health and utilizing therapy as a well for wellness whilst exploring what it really means to be your authentic self. From our athletic endeavors, to our social relationships and beyond, the further we stray from our authentic selves the more we will collectively struggle with our own mental well-being.  Things get vulnerable when Margaret opens up and shares intimate detail about how she has leveraged running as an outlet for grief recently. With the tragic loss of her father in March of 2023, Margaret details how the past few months have been very different for her and discusses the adjustments she has been forced to make in every single aspect of her life. Although overcome at times with emotion due to the harsh realities that have been thrown her way this year, Margaret provides some encouraging anecdotes about how her, her mom and her sister are facing these hardships together, and approaching the mourning and healing processes as a team.  We bringing BOGO back?!

Isaac Brock, the visionary frontman of Modest Mouse, embarked on a musical journey that would forever alter the indie rock landscape when he stumbled upon a hidden gem in the vibrant music scene of the early 2000s. While navigating the musical terrain of his hometown, Seattle, he chanced upon a captivating performance by a relatively unknown band called Wolf Parade. Enchanted by their raw energy, poetic lyricism, and genre-blurring sound, Brock saw in Wolf Parade a kindred spirit. His discovery of this Canadian indie rock outfit proved to be serendipitous, as he immediately recognized their potential and signed them to his label, Glacial Pace Recordings. In doing so, Brock not only introduced the world to Wolf Parade's distinctive sonic universe but also cemented his reputation as a curator of groundbreaking talent, forever changing the course of indie rock history. 0:00 Wolf Parade Apologies to the Queen Mary Review 14:55 You are a Runner and I am My Father's Son 17:55 Modern World 19:30 Grounds for Divorce 21:05 We Built Another World 22:15 Fancy Claps 25:40 Same Ghost Every Night 27:35 Shine a Light 29:35 Dear Songs and Daughters of Hungry Ghosts 30:55 I'll Believe in Anything 32:25 It's a Curse 34:40 Dinner Bells 35:40 This Heart's on Fire 37:50 Grimm's Scratch 39:10 Dude's Scratch #indiemusic #isaacbrock #wolfparade

Yeah, the episode is roughly 5 days late. Why, well just like good cheese it needs to ripen and get stinkier before you put it in you.

Why are these two idiots so obsessed with wings? What do you think the top of Ric Flair's head smells like?  My answers: I have tried multiple things, and nothing has just got her to look down into the hole in a while. Likely guess is that it has to do with poor upbringing. Flakes.

On today's episode, I talk to musician Carey Mercer. Originally from Okanagan, British Columbia, Carey formed the band Frog Eyes in the early 2000s out of the ashes of his former band Blue Pine. From 2003 until 2018, they wrote and released almost a dozen albums and EPs on labels like Absolutely Kosher and Dead Oceans. And in that time, Carey also released a number of solo albums, as well as with the supergroup Swan Lake featuring Destroyer's Dan Bejar and Wolf Parade's Spencer Krug. In 2018, Frog Eyes disbanded, but four years later they are back with a new album The Bees, which is out on Paper Bag Records, and as usual, it's fantastic!

Today on Soundtracker I kick off Halloween with the beginning of the show's first-ever themed month: a full slate of horror movie soundtracks to celebrate spooky season. On this episode I'm joined by Dan Boeckner (@DanBoeckner) of Wolf Parade, Operators and The Bottlemen Podcast to talk about Joel Schumacher's 1987 vampire classic THE LOST BOYS. In it, we cover how certain songs sometimes get picked to be on soundtracks (which Dan has real life experience with), aging 1970s rockers struggling to adjust to 80s style production, remembering the soundtrack being way more gothic than it actually is, and how the entire album came together in the first place. Bottlemen Podcast: https://thebottlemen.podbean.com/

Dan Boeckner of Operators and Wolf Parade and co-host of The Bottlemen podcast returns to Junk Filter for an episode about one of the great underseen films of the eighties, Ivan Passer's 1981 California neo-noir Cutter's Way, based on the crime novel Cutter and Bone by Newton Thornburg. One rainy night in Santa Barbara, Richard Bone (Jeff Bridges) witnesses a man dumping the corpse of a young girl; when he later recognizes a local captain of industry as the man who could be the culprit, his unhinged and physically shattered Vietnam veteran buddy Alex Cutter (John Heard) takes this ball and runs with it, launching an ill-advised blackmail scheme against the tycoon. Dan and I discuss the joys of what we'd call the Ambient Mystery genre, this film's relationship not only to the seventies paranoia genre but also to The Big Lebowski, the brilliant performances from two actors who should have had bigger careers (John Heard and Lisa Eichhorn), how Cutter's Way was mishandled by United Artists on the way to becoming a cult classic, and how we are all Alex Cutter now. Plus! An extended chat about next week's Bad Vibes Election in Canada! Follow Dan Boeckner on Twitter, and consider supporting Operators' Biblioteka Patreon!

Dan Boeckner of Operators and Wolf Parade joins the pod today from Montreal to discuss Tha God Takeshi Kitano. Outside his homeland Kitano is best known for his prizewinning violent crime dramas, but in Japan “Beat” Takeshi is a superstar TV comedian whose serious arthouse film career was not taken seriously there for several years. Dan and I discuss two of Kitano's films that exemplify his singular comic sensibility: the deadpan Boiling Point (1990) and the galaxy-brained sex comedy Getting Any? (1994), two films about the plight of the young, frustrated Japanese male oaf, and the culture that made him this way. Plus: a celebration of Takeshi Kitano the god of video game design with a look at his hilarious and impossible-to-play eighties game Takeshi's Challenge (marketed to children!), and some thoughts about the new Adam Curtis documentary series Can't Get You Out Of My Head.

Spinning Out (another music podcast) We talk to artists about their favorite albums and go on wild tangents. This week's guest is Elise Okusami of the band Oceanator. Today we are talking about "Apologies to the Queen Mary" by the band Wolf Parade (2005). Sorry for any sound issues, we had to make some backend massages to the audio. If you don't notice, then never mind! Oceanator released an amazing album this year called "Things I Never Said," originally on Elise's label, Plastic Miracles, and then quickly re-released on Polyvinyl Records. Easily one of the best albums of 2020! https://oceanator.bandcamp.com/ Episode edited/produced by Sarah Blumenthal Theme song performed by Pretty Matty

This week, we taste Old Forester Rye Whiskey and lament the passing of NBA legend Kobe Bryant. Then, we discuss “Doctor Sleep” (the recently released sequel to “The Shining”) and briefly touch on Stephen A. Smith's recent idiocy.

Montreal-formed band Wolf Parade, now mostly based in Vancouver, make up for 13 years of not performing live on KEXP with an extra-long set in our new studio, covering their entire 2016 EP plus two classics harking back to their very first recording. Co-songwriters Spencer Krug and Dan Boeckner, drummer Arlen Thompson and multi-instrumentalist Dante DeCaro have never sounded better than they do in this howlingly great performance. Recorded August 8, 2016 - 6 songs: Floating World, C'est La Vie Way, Automatic, Mr. Startup, Modern World, Dinner BellsSupport the show: https://www.kexp.org/donateSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
