The music reviews continue on in our sixth episode! Jed is tasked with reviewing "Trilogy", a compendium of three EP's by French synthwave (by way of 80's cop show/video game) artist Carpenter Brut. Meanwhile, Neil takes on "Blood Half Moon", the second album by indie alt-folk/country/something unique Scott Lucas & The Married Men. It's two different ends of the spectrum here, as one album pulses and pounds, and the other is mellow and melancholic. What will the boys think of these albums? Listen (and share, review and rate!) to find out!

What's this? An episode only a week after the last one? Well, it's not every week we have a special guest, so you, the listener, get a special release!!! Branden Fisher of the Shitty Song Of The Week podcast joins Neil and Jed for a special three-way dance! Branden brings prog/jam pioneers Umphrey's McGee and their album "Mantis", Neil brings 90's alt-space rock band Failure and their album "Fantastic Planet", and Jed brings the clever funk-punk (a term coined by Neil, we think) band Jimmie's Chicken Shack and their album "Pushing The Salmonella Envelope". The lads go roundtable-style to discuss them all! Did JCS' cleverness and funky beats impress? Did the genre-bending musicianship of Umphrey's win over new fans? Did Failure's status as a critical darling justify itself? Only way to found out is to listen!

On this week's episode, Jed has a cold and Neil is hungover, but that doesn't stop the music! Jed reviews "Honor Killed The Samurai" by underground hip-hop storyteller Ka, while Neil checks out "The Madcap Laughs", the solo debut by former Pink Floyd founder Syd Barrett. Will Jed's minimal exposure to hip-hop in his life affect his review, or will it stand on its own? Will the weight of Syd Barrett's sad legacy weigh down his first solo offering, or can Neil find something to enjoy in it? Should you, our loyal listeners, check out either of these albums based on our thoroughly expert opinions? And what is the special announcement Jed and Neil have at the end of the episode? Listen and all shall be revealed!

On this week's episode of Have You Heard This?, we FINALLY bring to the table some non-alternative albums!. Jed listens to "Spirit of Eden" by English art-rock pioneers Talk Talk, while Neil listens to "Amused to Death" by former Pink Floyd mastermind Roger Waters. The last episode finally saw some negative reviews from the lads. Do either of us bounce back and hit with a good album? Should you, the audience, check out either of these albums based on our thoroughly expert opinions? Listen and find out!

On this episode of Have You Heard This?, both Neil and Cathan are firmly rooted in offshoots of the 90's alternative scene. Jed listens to "Giant Steps" by Britpop purveyors The Boo Radleys, while Neil listens to "Slip" by the alt-metal/post-hardcore band Quicksand. We've had two episodes in a row with a pair of positive reviews. Can we make it three in a row, or does one of us finally miss the target? Should you, the audience, check out either of these albums based on our thoroughly expert opinions? Listen and find out!

On this second episode of Have You Heard This?, Jed listens to "F♯ A♯ ∞" by post-rock pioneers Godspeed You! Black Emperor, while Neil listens to "The Dirt of Luck" by lo-fi indie grunge band Helium. Did either album land, or did we get a misfire? Should you, the audience, check either of these out? Listen and find out!

Have You Heard? debuts! Neil Cathan, a Brit, and Jed Shaffer, an American, separated by 14 years and quite a distance, share their love of music by introducing each other to albums they may not have come across. On this first episode, Jed listens to "Figure 8" by Elliott Smith, while Neil listens to "Anonymous" by Tomahawk. How did the recommendations fare? Would we recommend these albums to the audience?
