Host Evie Stokes talks with “the world’s happiest goth,” KEXP DJ Atticus, about the Belfast group Chalk. Atticus breaks down the different music scenes in Ireland and how Chalk converges all the sides together with their aggressive, electronic sound. “I.D.C.” comes from Chalk’s upcoming album Crystalpunk, out March 13 on ALTER Music.
