- Episode 021 -- Live Through This and The Drifters Golden Hits
Content Warning: Our discussion of Live Through This includes mentions of suicide as well as sexual abuse and assault.
Courtney Love is more punk than you are. To be perfectly honest, Under The Boardwalk is more punk than you are. You could stand to up your punk game a little bit! The best way to do that is to listen to this episode.

Hey this end of the list sure does have a lot of post-punk on it, huh? Seems like someone over at the big RS really enjoyed post-punk but couldn't lobby enough votes to hop it up the ladder. Go figure. REM's got fine work and Public Image Ltd is like broccoli for your ears. EAT IT. IT CLEANS OUT YOUR MUSIC TUBES

Our first non-holiday hair metal album and our umpteenth post-punk album for the show. Two great tastes that... are both present! (Seriously though, Def Leppard GOES PLACES.)

Album Club 500 makes its triumphant return! Jacob, Twenty-Seven, and someone who is definitely also Jacob and not Talking Atlas co-host Bryce bring you 150% more album review than normal with: the straightforward blues of the Paul Butterfield Blues Band, the first of The Boss' albums in the top 500, and the second studio release from Coldplay (which is a band meaningfully distinct from Radiohead)!

Email: [email protected]Album Club 500 RSS0 min - AC500 Episode 016 :: Radio and The ScoreSpanning over a decade of hip-hop, we're blessed with a bevy of talented MCs this week. Lauryn Hill, LL Cool J, Wyclef Jean, and the inimitable Pras. Stories of growing up, loves old and new, and living as best you can. 470: Radio by LL Cool J 469: The Score by Fugees Theme by Twenty-Seven Interlude by Kevin McLeod of Incompetech1 hr 38 min
- AC500 Episode 015 :: Faith and I Want To See The Bright Lights TonightContent Warning: Faith contains a VERY high amount of sexual content. Listener discretion is advised. George Michael's solo debut and Richard and Linda Thompson's duet debut! Sexually charged English pop and despondency-laden folk music give us a range of themes to work with today. The British are a varied people, we can infer. Stay tuned! 472: Faith by George Michael 471: I Want To See The Bright Lights Tonight by Richard and Linda Thompson Theme Music by Twenty-Seven Break Music by Kevin McLeod Citation: Jacob gets into a bit of social commentary regarding a controversial comic, and the commentary is mostly cribbed from this article by @literalshipley on Medium. Credit where it's due.1 hr 12 min
- AC500 Episode P002 :: California and Changes in Latitudes, Changes in AttitudesYes, in case you didn't hear from last week, we've failed you once again. So instead of albums from the list, we've been beset by outrageous funk metal and the soothing dulcet tones of James William Buffett. Please forgive us by listening onward. California by Mr. Bungle Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes by Jimmy Buffett Theme Song by Twenty-Seven Break music by Kevin McLeod1 hr 44 min
- AC500 Episode 014 :: Proxima Estacion: Esperanza and The SmithsQuite a range on today's episode, both in terms of the albums surveyed and the mental capacity of our hosts. Twe is back from a con and both of us are pretty goofy in this one. Stick around past both the exciting world fusion and the British sadcore pop for a very special ending. We apologize in advance. 474: Proxima Estacion: Esperanza by Manu Chao 473: The Smiths by The Smiths Theme Song by Twenty-Seven Interlude Music by Kevin McLeod1 hr 25 min
