Chris and Nikki are back to jump on the hype train just as it leaves the platform and rank the 7 albums of the feuding Manchester Britpop comeback heroes (of ticketmaster's pockets), Oasis!

In part 1, the conversation starts with a general musing on the significance of the band and their unexpected reunion as well as Chris and Nikki's personal history with the band's music.

The discography is ranked and the first four albums (Definitely Maybe, (What's The Story) Morning Glory, Be Here Now and Standing On The Shoulder Of Giants) are discussed in more detail.

Join Nikki and Chris as they explore this 90s time capsule of a compilation! Featuring tracks all recorded on the same day by some of the biggest names in UK 90s music, this is a treat.

Tracks are eliminated until the two very best remain, which get added to our ultimate compilation playlist (don't click until you've listened if you don't want spoilers!): https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1wv4z1EZzDpD3VqYqhZH07?si=f5271b4e98b04688

Nikki and Chris continue their discussion of the Gorillaz discography with probably their biggest ranking disagreement so far in 2017's Humanz, followed by The Now Now, Song Machine and 2023's Cracker Island.

The special feature for this episode is "I have to go now. My label needs me" to choose the best 5 featured artist performances of all time!

Chris and Nikki are back to rank the 8 albums of Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett's surprisingly long running art/music project, greatest (only?) animated band in the world: Gorillaz.

In part 1, the albums get ranked and the first 4 get discussed in more detail (Gorillaz, Demon Days, Plastic Beach and The Fall). There are some spicy ranking differences here!

Welcome back to Compelimination, where Chris & Nikki take a music compilation and take it in turns to eliminate tracks one by one until only the best remains. These get added to a playlist that will eventually create the greatest compilation of all time!

This time, we continue our exploration of the Rock Sound magazine free CDs with 1999's Music With Attitude, Vol.2!

Chris and Nikki conclude their chat through the discography of Glasgow's Post-rock giants, Mogwai. In Part 2, they cover Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will, Rave Tapes, Every Country's Sun and As The Love Continues.

Stick around for this episode's special feature, "Oops, I said the quiet part loud and the loud part quiet", where Chris and Nikki rank their top 5 bands named after film references!

Just like the subject of this episode... it's been a long quiet build up resulting in a big ol' satisfying ending, as Chris and Nikki finally get around to ranking and discussing the ten albums of Glaswegian post-rock titans, Mogwai!

Part 1 includes a brief chat about the band and their legacy, the abum rankings and evaluations of Mogwai Young Team, Come On Die Young, Rock Action, Happy Songs for Happy People, Mr Beast and The Hawk is Howling.

A bonus episode in tribute to the great Steve Albini.

Chris and Nikki discuss Steve's impact on their music tastes and outlooks and rank their favourite albums that he had a part in making (but if we're really honest, the ranking element of this episode is more of an excuse to talk about all of his incredible work).
