Conan Neutron’s Protonic Reversal

Surprise! It is the one and only Mr. Mike Watt. He's got a new record with Mike Beggata and Jim Keltner called Everywhen We Go. Hot off the presses! We discuss that (and the difference between mssv!) as well as the Watt from Pedro show, Flipper, Iggy, erasing ageism in movement music, knee blow outs, remote tracking and Orson Welles with a pair of chili dogs. Spiel time, baby! Let's go!

The unmistakable Gerald V. Casale of DEVO RETURNS! He has new music. The Invisible Man ep, along with a reissue of the Jihad Jerry & the Evildoers material under his own name. Fantastic videos for I'm Gonna Pay U Back and The Invisible Man. Collaboration with Steve Bartek of Oingo Boingo and Josh Freese and more. Of COURSE, lots of DEVO talk as well. Smart Patrol/Mr. DNA, Meeting David Lynch and Ronnie Rocket. Human Highway and Neil Young, the wild antics of Iggy Pop. 9/11 stand-up comedy and lots, lots more!

The great Paul Roessler! He's recently released The Turning of the Bright World, a new solo record. Lots of talk about the iconic and legendary band The Screamers who never recorded a proper record but are legends of punk rock and progenitors of "synth punk" and still a hot topic to this day, Twisted Roots, Nervous Gender, working (and touring!) with Nina Hagen, Don Bolles and Pat Smear, Dez Cadena, Playing with Dead Kennedys, Kitten Robot studios, Mike Watt. Touring, performance, spectacle! Paul!

Brainiac touring in 2023? Amazing! Let's get the full details from the guitar man himself, how a Brainiac tour can (and is) happening without the great Timmy Taylor (RIP). Fresh off a tour with the band Caribou, John breaks it down. How about a rundown of the catalog too? Yeah? Sound good. The Attic Tapes and Live show? Also cool. How about an EXCLUSIVE SURPRISE?! Come all ye Cracked machines and Bonsai Superstars.

Upright Forms are a new band! One of their first recordings is on the Sounds to Make You Shudder Skin Graft comp. Conan knows the three members from very different bands and circles. The Upright Forms origins are discussed as well as indepth look at Dazzling Killmen (Face of collapse! Jazz guys and wildcard), Collossamite (members of Deerhoof now), Sicbay! and more. It is an in-depth discussion with a unique and influential player and musician through his entire journey in his music up to today.

Reissues of Strangers From the Universe and Admonishing the Bishops! Yes, it is true. Bulbous Monocle is doing just that. What better time to go over the entire storied and varied TFUL282 catalog with a fine tooth comb? A bit about each record, baroque instruments making weird noises. Optigans! Mother of All Saints! The Crowded Diaper and so much more. Did you know SF used to be an affordable place to make music and create? Let’s talk to Mark Davies and find out all about it.

The mighty men of MICROWAVES! This incredibly long lived band of uncompromising relentlessly creative Pittsburgh noiseniks have a new one called Discomfiture Atlas, a record with TWO lineups. One of which is with previous bassplayer Steve Moore of Zombi fame. A wild time!

Or as Dave says: "We talk about the songs on the new record in detail. Adam eats key lime pie. I espouse a radical theory about Spinal Tap. John makes crinkling noises."

Well then! How about a comprehensive talk with the fantastic and innovative guitarist and singer? A deep and far ranging conversation on models of operation, freedom and creativity as well as relatively comprehensive deep dives through all of all of the fugazi catalog? Strap in everybody!
