Resident music-nerd Ben discusses the importance of separating the art from the artist, takes us through the final night of iconic Melbourne music venue Ding Dong Lounge and sings the praises of new releases from The Voidz, No Age and Ty Segall.

Ben's buddy Rid also returns for the second instalment of his Laneway Festival rundown.

Enjoy!
