Listen Later

In this episode, Chris is joined by Matt Collyer of The Planet Smashers to discuss the writing and recording of their 2019 fan-favorite single, "Too Much Information." Together, they explore the song's creation, from the collaborative songwriting process to the production choices that gave it a polished yet energetic sound. Matt reflects on the role of horns in ska music, the song's linear structure, and its lyrical themes of overexposure and modern communication. With over 30 years in the ska punk scene, The Planet Smashers' enduring relevance shines through in this conversation, as Matt also shares insights into the band's journey and excitement for the future.
