This week, I expose you (ah-HA!) to a bunch of people who should've been huge hits, and never really were, much to my sadness. You'll get some neo-funk, some classic R&B, some blues rock, some visual kei, some electro-industrial-goth and a bunch more.

As always, at the end of the show, I tell you how to reach out and say hi. Drop me an email and shoot me a hello on Twitter. To my new listeners in Mexico, drop me a line - tell me about a band from Mexico or two that I should be checking out. Same for you folks in Belgium! I see you over there. We love listener discovery. Just point me in a direction and I'll go digging.

Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to listen to the following podcast, and to tell as many of your friends about it as you possibly can. As always, your team selection is being left up to you, but I would recommend getting as many people as possible to listen to the podcast, lest we decide to stop issuing missions. Should you or any of your podcast force be caught or killed, I'm totally going to disavow ever knowing your ass, and you will be hung out to dry. This podcast will self destruct in... oh, let's call it an hour or so. Plenty of time for you to listen to it all.

Good luck, Jim.

Not a ton to say about this one, other than it's chock full of stuff I love, and dab of international spice. Plus, new music from a band whose last album came out 17 years ago. Not quite up to the 22 year highwater waiting mark set by My Bloody Valentine, but, y'know, much longer than I would have liked... Still, it's coming, and sometimes that's all you can ask for...

Okay, so this month's scene show is about post hardcore, a genre that is commonly confused with both post-punk and emo. To be fair, there are a number of bands that have made a bunch of music that is both emo and post-hardcore, and we'll tackle that. Over the nearly 3 hours of this scene show, I'll try and give you an overview of the genre, and let you hear many of the major players.

It's worth noting that I'm not a huge fan of some of this stuff, and I'm also sick, so I have less to say this episode than normally, but there's plenty of music to hear, and if you don't hear anything that tickles your fancy, we'll be back early next week with a standard show, assuming my voice comes back.

I tell a number of hilarious stories on this show, including one how I cite a source, only to later realize it's ME I'm citing, just from 20 years ago. This show also runs long, because I'm skipping the Monday/Tuesday show next week. (Space concerns.) But we'll be back next Friday with another scene show for ya. Until then, enjoy.
