On this episode of BV Weekly, Dave and Andrew discuss this week's discourse surrounding Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros' "Home" as a potential "worst song ever," stomp clap music, and 2008-2012 indie (02:06); along with recent "Is Rock Back?" articles coinciding with Olivia Rodrigo continuing her alt-rock collabs by bringing Weezer out at Lollapalooza (25:58). We also look at Blackbraid, Ethel Cain, DJ Premier & Roc Marciano, and more new albums (31:31); the announcement of Algernon Cadwallader's first album in 14 years (41:05), and more.
