  • Episode 152: Benji Hughes - Songs In The Key Of Animals

    The Eagles (and Glenn Frey) are dead. Long live the Eagles…unless you’re THAT a-hole.

    Pop weirdo Benji Hughes follows up 2008’s A Love Extreme by packing more fun per square inch than should be legally allowed on his Merge debut, Songs In The Key Of Animals.

    Hailing from Austin, TX, Casey Chandler aka Galapaghost is keeping it real, and real mellow on his latest album I Never Arrived and we’ve got a track for your a$$.

    Get hype for our diss track response to the B.O.B./Tyson flat earth feud. It’s dropping the same day as Frank Ocean’s album.

  • Episode 151: The Besnard Lakes - A Coliseum Complex Museum

    High profile music publicist Heathcliff Berru has serious and multiple allegations of sexual assault leveled against him, and that’s just the tip of one of the darkest corners of the music industry iceberg.

    The Besnard Lakes return with their fifth album, A Coliseum Complex Museum, and we have an excite.

    K.A.A.N. drops his latest exhilarating track, “The Eagles”, just days after the passing of rock legend Glenn Frey.

    Snowzilla has come and gone leaving a potential baby boom in its wake, yet Frank Ocean’s Boys Don’t Cry still hasn’t dropped. Draw your own conclusions.
