Wait! Things sound a little different! What's that music? Why does Matt sound dodgier than usual? Well, take a trip back to 2015 with this special episode of Pick A Disc which is...the first ever iteration of Pick A Disc. The backstory of this episode is revealed quite early on, but whilst you see the genesis of the podcast - the album talked about is Nick Cave's most successful album to date: Murder Ballads (aka The One With Kylie On). Matt and Lee go through the songs and how they update folk ballads and have original songs and the dynamic between Nick and his guest vocalists - enjoy!
