They said it couldn’t be done! Many questioned whether it SHOULD be done! But here it is - Episode 100 of the @weheardwonders podcast! What better way to commemorate this astonishing achievement in content-creation than by Iain and Andrew sitting down and reflecting on the year that was 2024? We play and enthuse about some of our standout records of the past 12 months, as well as discussing many of the wider trends. Which releases did Iain return to again and again? Did Andrew’s epic Album Of The Year rundown finally break him? Tune in to find out.

MUSTAAAARD! The latest @weheardwonders is burnin' HOT, with Andrew and Iain discussing GNX, the surprise new album from Kendrick Lamar, before playing and sharing their thoughts on new tracks from Top 5 single hit-maker and man-of-the-people Sam Fender, exploratory art-rock duo MEMORIALS, mischievous Southern hip-hop king Denzel Curry, space-funk trumpeter Emma-Jean Thackray and very talented friend-o'-pod Jill Lorean. Something obscenely, moreishly groovy has the Vinyl Word.

Something beardy and jauntily acousticy has the Vinyl Word.

Iain and Andrew deliver their opinions on the freshest new music with scalpel-sharp incisiveness on the latest @weheardwonders pod. Indie-folk phenomenon Bon Iver go back to basics, 100% Saharan guitar-band Etran de L’Aïr step into a proper studio for the first time, “the Grace Jones of jazz” Lady Blackbird expands her horizons, Lisbon psych-folk collective Beautify Junkyards team up with Modfather Paul Weller with the sole intention of freaking out Iain, and Chrysanths (aka Emily Scott from Glasgow chamber-pop darlings Modern Studies) does some miraculous things with strings. Something venomous and omnivorous has the Vinyl Word.

At the top of this week’s @weheardwonders, Andrew has a surprise quiz sprung on him - will he be triumphant or left in a sulk with Iain for the remainder of the recording?

Something shimmering and stunning has the Vinyl Word.

Be here now! Iain and Andrew share their thoughts on the announcement of Oasis’ feverishly-anticipated reunion tour - are they intending to get mad wit’ it next summer or does the public’s appetite for reliving past glories have them looking back in anger and wondering “where did it all go wrong”? Then it’s time to play and review new music from indie-rock kings-in-waiting Fontaines D.C., black midi showman Geordie Greep, Americana royalty Gillian Welch & David Rawlings, Chicano soul upstarts Thee Heart Tones, and avant-pop adventurers Magdalena Bay. Something intensely, soaringly euphoric has the Vinyl Word.

Following a summer break which heralded the arrival of the latest addition to the @weheardwonders dynasty, normal podcasting service is resumed! We preview the forthcoming album from Leith’s premier practitioner of bittersweet wonk-pop Gurry Wurry, and share our thoughts on new music from one-man indie-rock-jukebox This Is Lorelei, expansive soul-jazz collective Ari Tsugi, the lustily literate Hamish Hawk, lugubrious yacht-rockers Club Kuru and bossa-nova-inflected folk singer Liana Flores. Something sinewy and scintillating has the Vinyl Word.
