In this episode of Generation Gap Paul and Sam discuss Interpol seminal debut album "Turn On the Bright Lights" along with Snail Mail's newly released sophomore album "Valentine."  

On this episode of Generation Gap Paul and Sam invite their very first guest onto the show!  Sam's friend Jason is featured in this very special episode to talk about the Guided By Voices landmark album, "Bee Thousand"; a record a that Jason picked!  

We'd also like to make a correction, Ben Gibbard did play a Guided By Voices song during his at home livestreams, but "Don't Stop Now", a track off of a different Guided By Voices album.  Sam must have heard "I Am a Scientist" elsewhere.  

This is a unique episode of Generation Gap.  Instead of talking about a particular album or artist, we decided that we wanted to talk about some very serious, important, and pressing issues in the world of music.  We would like to warn our listeners that we touch upon some very sensitive topics in this episode.  And as always, thank you for listening.  

On this episode of Generation Gap, your hosts Paul and Sam discuss albums from two artists of different generations.  They begin by dissecting the debut solo album, "No Home Record", by Kim Gordon.  Gordon is known for being a member of the legendary noise/punk band Sonic Youth.  Afterwards they take a deep dive into the sophomore album, "Love & Hate", by Michael Kiwanuka.
