This week, we're getting emo AF.  Jeremy Enigk, late of Sunny Day Real Estate, released his second solo album in 2006 and we're gonna listen to it and have emotions about it.  

Get ready to get soaking wet in this "quiet storm" with us.  The smoothest saxes, the slipperiest basslines, and that voice.  THAT voice.  Time to stop frontin' and get into this "sweetest taboo".

Well, we finally got here. Joy Division's second album, "Closer".  After this, we swear we're going to cover something light hearted and joyful.  Honestly, after a month of post-punk, we're all gonna need it.  Listen as a young band hones their craft and zeros in on what it sounds like to be utterly hopeless.  They make it hurt so good.  Unsung blues players.  Joy Division.

The "High Priestess Of Punk" herself, and her Banshees released this post-punk masterpiece before there was even a word for it.  Goth before it was a thing.  Though not looked at as one of their "greatest" albums, we disagree. You can't listen to this album without hearing the future echoes of The Cure, Sleater Kinney, or Jane's Addiction.  Also, we bet you've never heard "The Lords Prayer" performed like this.  

Ffffffresh from 40+ years ago, we get into the Tubeway Army's second album, "Replicas".  Synth-pop pioneers with a secret weapon.  I can't keep a secret.  This is Gary Numan's old band!  Yes. THE Gary Numan.  Philip K. Dick meets the guy that brought you "Cars".  Think about it.

On The Next Episode...
We travel back to 1983 to visit the juggernaut that was "Colour By Numbers" by Culture Club.  After the drab 70's Boy George and Co. drop this explosion of Day-Glow soul/reggae/new wave greatness.  

We have a guest this week! Holy crap! Please welcome Darcie Pfiefle into "Studio 117" as she helps us dissect and come to terms with Amy's final album.  There will be laughs, tears, and genuine confusion.  Enjoy. 

This week, we get a little more familiar with Foreigner and their second album, "Double Vision".  Well, we wanted to be down with this album so hard.  In the end, were we?  Check it and see.

We close out Black History Month with "The Voice" herself, Whitney Houston.  1987 was a great year for music.  Probably because of this album.  God save the "Queen".

Join us as we come full circle with the mighty TLC.  Not just "Waterfalls, and Creep(in).  Some of the smoothest, horniest, and funniest tracks lay in wait as we dive into Atlanta's representation during Black History Month, CrazySexyCool.
