Another of Billy's all time favourite albums, from an artist the Martin readily acknowledges to have prior prejudice against. Can opinions be swayed?

It's been a sad week as we lost several very influential musicians from various eras and genres, so we pay our respects before digging in to the third album from UK crossover dance act The Prodigy. Keith Flint is another artist who left us too soon but he was at the forefront of the biggest commercial and critical hit from a band that have had a hugely successful career and are still being covered today - including by Billy's own band Body who have a surprising connection. If you want to know more, you'll have to listen :)

A number one hit album released just a couple of weeks ago is on the listening pile this week. What do we make of the huge success of Olivia Dean? Plus the usual ramble about other stuff that's been going on.

After two weeks of feeling subjected to dire depressing tunes Billy enacts revenge by insisting on reviewing the lengthy and musically complex third album from Tool "Lateralus". Science, mathematics - should they be more important than actual tunes?

Also a lengthy ramble about grassroots music and the lack of venues for artists still establishing their fanbase.

This week Martin is joined by Lemmi Eaton who regularly performs and releases solo work as Garage Canvas and as a member of the band High Dives. We had a lovely long rambly conversation that I've managed to knock in to some sensible shape - perhaps the out-takes will make it to a bonus episode someday. Why not write in and offer bribes to have the extra content released.

Jimmy Eats World's third album Bleed American was released in 2001 and changed the world. At least for 16 year old Lemmi. What does emo mean and do we all secretly love twin guitars.

Well, Billy wasn't 100% convinced but fairly sure if it was a straight fight between this and The Boatman's Call this would win on points. Morrissey and Marr were the Lennon and McCartney of the 80's but their long term legacy doesn't quite have the deep cultural relevance of The Beatles, however the UK Indie scene was based on the foundations built on the back of this band's short time in the limelight.

This week we had a very differing experiences listening to the 10th studio album from Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. Not to Billy's taste, but it went straight in to Martin's vinyl library, alongside former podcast find Grace by Jeff Buckley.

Fresh from adventures at the Reading Festival, Billy recommends local (ish) band Wunderhorse and their 2024 second album Midas for your listening pleasure. Indie Rock with a 90's vibe and 21st century style. Much like Martin and Billy!
