Welcome to Album Clash! This week we bring to a close the first stop on our musical road trip (redux), saying goodbye to the Seattle grunge scene by going through a little known album called ‘Nevermind’ by three precocious young chaps called Nirvana.
Yep, it’s the album that arguably defined a generation. And, as you might expect when reviewing such a cultural behemoth, there’s quite a bit for us to get into with this one. Such as how the album’s huge sound was developed, how the band drew inspiration from numerous acts who in turn went on to achieve greater success themselves on the back of ‘Nevermind’ becoming a global smash. We also have a big old chat about how a number of bands on the other side of the Atlantic took note of what Nirvana were doing and used it to start their own cultural revolution…
In this week’s video killed the radio star Kev talks us through a video which combines three of our favourite things: old children’s television programmes, dated pop culture references, and Radiohead. And Kev’s choice for album of the pod is the latest effort from one of psychedelic rock’s most criminally underrated acts.
Also this week:
This. Is. ALBUM CLASH!
***If you like what you've heard in this show, why not subscribe to the pod? You can also listen to our entire back catalogue (and with two weeks to wait between new episodes you frankly have no excuse not to). PLEASE tell your mates to check us out. Alternatively, if you think we're shite, tell your enemies to listen - we honestly don't care as long as we get those sweet sweet clicks. Finally, if you are so inclined, we would be incredibly grateful if you could give us a (preferably 5-star) rating and leave a review on whichever platform you get your pods. It makes it easier for others to find us and it means a hell of a lot. Thanks for listening!***
