Yeah, it's Trve. Cvlt. Pop!, pop music, podcast, all that.

On this week's show Steve and Gaz give you the most comprehensive run down of the UK festival circuit in 2025.

Looking at the line ups of 2000 Trees, Outbreak, TRNSMT, Latitude, Rewind, Reading & Leeds, ArcTanGent, Wilderness, Victorious, All Points East, Bloodstock, Parklife, Isle of Wight, Download and, of course, Glastonbury, to see which one is the essential weekend of the summer.

*This show was recorded before Kneecap were forced from the TRNSMT line up... and before Kings of Leon cancelled all their UK shows... which is not as dramatic, obviously.

Hi there, you've correctly stumbled onto a podcast about music. It's called Trve. Cvlt. Pop! Thanks for that.

On this week's show, Steve & Gaz put their undefeated quiz streak (of just one quiz to be fair) on the line against the top lads from the Bangers & Mosh podcast; Jimi and Dazz.

We fight it out for heavy metal supremacy, by tackling five rounds of five questions, all about the world of heavy music. It's a hotly contested affair! Play along at home.

Welcome back to Trve. Cvlt. Pop! a podcast all about music.

On this week's show Steve and Gaz are joined by friend of the show Dave Fensome from the Pop, Collaborate & Listen Podcast to talk about one of the greatest rock bands of the 1990's; Seattle Grunge legends Soundgarden.

It's been 8 years since the tragic loss of Soundgarden, not to mention Audioslave, Temple of the Dog and solo artist in his own right, Chris Cornell. And so as a mark of love and respect for his body of work we go through all of Soundgarden's full length releases and pick a favourite song from them. From their punky early stuff, their huge 90's breakthrough classic and their unfortunately underwhelming end, we look at them all.

Welcome back to Trve. Cvlt. Pop! it's a music podcast basically.

On this week's show, just after the release of her latest album I'm a Hurricane, I'm a Woman in Love, we are delighted to be joined by Låpsley, who has picked five albums for us to talk about.

We look at all manner of music from her picks, including the blues, minimalist electronic, indie rock, modern house and classic folk.

Plus there is a quick shout to some joyous, lost 2000's euro-pop in the Lvst. Cvlt. Pop! section.

It's Trve. Cvlt. Pop! it's a music podcast, welcome.

On this week's show Steve and Gaz shout out the very best music to have been released in April. Covering the latest releases from The Mars Volta, Self Esteem, Heavy Lungs, Xikers, Momma, Superheaven, Jane Remover, Skrillex, Sault, Wolfgang Flur, Ghost, Employed to Serve, Bon Iver, Cloth, Kool Keith, Amplifier, Wu Tang Clan & Mathmatics, Turnpike Troubadors, Miki Berenyi Trio and Teen Mortgage.

There's also a chat about the huge story of Kneecap and the mainstream furore over their onstage behaviour.

Hello there and welcome to another episode of Trve. Cvlt. Pop! as music podcast.

On this weeks show Steve and Gaz go back for another round of song battles. Two songs in a similar vein, but only one of them can be the definitive tune. Expect trance bangers going head to head, a big post-grunge off, the fight for who invented goth, the 80's banger that Millennials have ruined and more.

Plus, it was a very good Friday on Good Friday, with reports from the recent Shelter and Manic Street Preachers show, and a lost classic pop banger from La Roux.

Hello and welcome to Trve. Cvlt. Pop! a podcast all about the great stuff that happens in music.

On this week's show we are delighted to be joined by one of the UK's finest upcoming, young pop artists; Jessica Winter. Her forthcoming debut album, My First Album, is released on the 11th of July, so as a little aperitif, we asked her to come on and speak about 5 albums.

She did not disappoint, picking some absolutely legendary releases that range from 70's AOR, industrial metal, nu-disco, electronic chillout and pure iconic pop.

We also discuss Katy Perry's bizarre trip into space, The Who imploding merely weeks after we suggested that might happen and recall that rarest of things; a chart hit from post-punk misanthropes Killing Joke.

It has been a while, but we are back with another Trve. Crvp. Pop!, the search for the worst album of all time.

On this episode Steve and Sam look at MDNA, the 12th studio album from US pop icon Madonna, released on the 23rd of March 2012.

It looked like Madonna had effortlessly sidestepped the late period wobble that so many of her contemporaries suffered in the 2000's when she released 2005's Confessions on a Dancefloor album and was at the top of her game once again. Even the Hard Candy album of 2008 yielded a pretty massive single as well. Well done Madonna, you've cracked it!

Or had she, soon things started to get pretty messed up in here personal life, a divorce from cockney, wide boy movie director Guy Ritchie was a right slap in the facking noggin... or something. And by the time she was pimping herself out on Facebook for people to collab with in 2011, it looked like another wobble was on its way.

It was when the title for her comeback album was released that things took a serious turn for the worst though, the clunky MDNA made people worry she was trying too hard, and when the album arrived and sold less than a 5th of Confessions... the "Is Madonna past it" discourse started up again.

A decade later though, is MDNA that bad? Well, we'll let you know.

No, no... You are welcome back to Trve. Cvlt. Pop! it's only a pop music podcast, chill out!

On this weeks show Steve and Gaz pick a selection of artists that may not have a number of truly classic albums in their discography, but do have a spectacular singles collection.

We pick 8 artists, pick through their very best moments and debate a podium of Gold, Silver and Bronze to crown the finest of their ilk... it's just our opinion though right... you do know that? Good.

Also we pay tribute to the late Blondie drummer Clem Burke, marvel that Fyre Fest 2 might actually be happing... and might be even shitter than last time, try and make sense of the new about a bizarre and quite serious Weezer based incident and big up a long lost banger from a true icon of music.

Welcome back to another Trve. Cvlt. Pop! your favourite music chat podcast innit.

Steve and Gaz are here, Gaz is feeling pretty ropey and ill, bless him. But that can't take away from the fact that March 2025 was an incredible, and we mean INCREDIBLE, month for new music.
