As Matt and Samer try to beat the heat, we dive into our August new music mix starting with the eclectic "Hog Calling Contest" by King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, a track brimming with gospel piano, funky guitar, and hilarious pig metaphors. Matt even throws in a fun fact about the band's impressive 26 studio albums! We then groove to "Perfume" by The Dare, a track teeming with quirky lyrics and a playful tone that instantly won our hearts.

The episode shifts gears as we explore a selection of tracks that have grabbed our attention recently. Get ready for some energetic punk vibes with "Cheapskate" by Dune Rats, and a heartfelt, realistic love song in "My Only Friend" by Amy Shark featuring Tom DeLonge. Don't miss out on "Not Tonight" by Raging Bunch, a rock-folk tune that's as compelling as it is personal. We also chat about music that transcends language barriers and the latest buzz around Travis Scott. Finally, we shower praise on Tones and I for her infectious "Dance With Me" and delve into beebadoobee's raw and honest songwriting in "This Is How It Went." This episode is packed with entertaining banter and exciting music discoveries that will make your summer unforgettable.
