Recently Wired Magazine basically wrote a click bait, hit piece on the band GEESE. We thought that was a bad move so we're discussing it. We also get into modern music marketing and if the concept of selling out even exists anymore.

This is our first 2 part episode since there was too much to cover and we couldn't stop talking. BIG DEAL ALERT! The Rapture's Luke Jenner joins me for a conversation about his busiest year in music 2003 and the dawn of the Brooklyn music scene that emerged in the early 2000s. We also go deep on Josh Homme's most influential records, there was so much to talk about I had to call my friend Sheila for more insight.

Did you love Nu Metal? Did you love to hate it? Then this episode is for you. We talk about our love for Nu Metal bands, the cheese factor of it all, the culture that surrounded is and how terrible a magazine Circus was. Join for a trip to 2001 and the last gasp of this genre. 

This episode we explore and discuss an article about a brand new band called Bush. I thought this episode was going to be a conversation about how bands who are influenced by a current, popular movement in music have an unfair disadvantage. And it was. BUT, it was also about why bands in the same movement get to be cool and other don't. Also we talk about Oakleys and 90s fashion. 

It's the 25th anniversary of Weezer Pinkerton and we talk about the Alternative Press cover story on Weezer for this landmark album. Pinkerton was one of the most talked about albums of the 90's because it was Weezer's sophomore record and there were a lot of expectations that were either met or rejected by fans. It still remains probably the favourite album of fans and we talk about it's impact, and legacy.

This episode we discuss the short lived but influential career of the band Slint. Were they the dawn of post rock? We talk about Slint's roots in hardcore and how the hardcore genre has spawned so much important music from bands that left it behind but hung on to its energy and counter culture.

Is Grunge a sound or a place? In this episode 3 grunge obsessed hosts go through the Pitchfork 25 Grunge Albums of the 90s list and we get deep into defining grunge picking apart this list and of course talking about who we would have included.

We discuss beginnings of the syrupy, pop that is the 2000's emo movement before moving onto why a large camp of fans only like Weezer Blue Album and Pinkerton. THEN it's time for SPIN's year end list of albums and who was number one in the charts in January 2002? DON'T GOOGLE IT! Listen and find out. 

1994 was an incredible year in music and in this episode we go in depth with our thoughts, opinions and judgements on Courtney Love and her career in Hole. AND on the flip side we gush over Madonna and her no regrets career. BUT don't worry we also talk about Boys 2 Men and Offspring. 

Do you think music culture is at a standstill? We do...
