August 02, 2024 166 - Jared Chappell & Dan New (Plovers)
Plovers are dead. Well, almost. It’s certainly not from a lack of trying, though, and at least they’ve got one hell of a record to play themselves out. We catch up with two-thirds of “Melbourne's 9th most popular post-hardcore band” to discuss their untimely soon-to-be demise (RIP), the protracted journey to their phenomenal debut album release, our yearning desire for critical thinking and self-reflection, and why billionaires don’t deserve defending.

July 29, 2024 165 - Weekly Roundup (29/07/24)
It’s been another wild week in the world of alternative music. Thankfully, Owen & Paige are fearless, intrepid explorers willing to venture where others may fear to tread. We unveil Oddworld nu metal vistas, Aussie elder emo heaviness, riffy D.C. pop-punk, and legendary Japanese post-rock goodness. Oh, and this week’s feature album is staggeringly beautiful and utterly devastating in equal measure. You’re welcome.

Owen & Paige run full-steam ahead into another packed roundup, and the tracks aren’t slowing down for anyone. Aussie hardcore royalty rubs up with R’n’B rockers and American alt-metallers. Oklahoma drops by with some homegrown indie-punk and a slamming slice of brutal death metal. And why not add a little shoegaze and jamming psych to the mix? They’re all here, and we’re chatting about the lot, so tune in!
