Scene But Not Herd

We break the album club rules and listen to an EP this week, asking ourselves: why are emo boys obsessed with singing me to sleep?

Uri-ne for a treat this week with this steaming fresh slice of Panic! At The Disco, and his latest music album - Pray For The Wicked.

Ste and Natalie settle down inside the mouth of Canadian pop tinker: Carly Rae Jepsen, to enjoy the apparently incredibly well regarded pop masterpiece E-mo-tion.

Sia?!  You couldn't miss 'er!

Not all of these number ones are number ones... and not all of these songs on this Destiny's Child album are by Destiny's Child.  And who bought the shoes that I'm wearin'? Was it me, an independent woman, or a no good scrub trying to get off the call block? What the fuck is an automo bill?Apologies for the sound quality on this one - it's all Natalie's fault.

Canadian - check.  Prog - check. Complaining about length - check.  We're a parody of ourselves at this point.  We listen to Volition by Protest the Hero and experience death by 10,000 arpeggios.

Take a walk a ride down the hormonal highway with us this week, as we experience puberty through the eyes of all three of the Busted boys simultaneously. The most difficult time is A Present for Everyone.

See, Busted, I made it into a fucking pun, why couldn't you?!

Ste and Natalie awkwardly discuss their very different opinions of much-loved 'extreme metal' band Skeletonwitch. Highlights include, trying to find new ways to describe the 100th guitar riff in an album, and how much skill is involved in making it sound like you're genuinely being sick.

Ste and Natalie just about survive this shockingly poor Christmas anthology. Someone actually got paid to compile this tracklist! Never go near this CD, it will ruin your Christmas.

Ste & Natalie spend one hour trying to decide which word to emphasise when saying "Jimmy Eat World", and somehow also talk about their self-funded breakout album and emo staple - Bleed American.

The only wrong answer is "World".

Guess who gets pre-release access to albums now? That's right - this week we're talking about Boston Manor's brand new album Welcome to the Neighbourhood.
