Flatbasset Radio: Episode #96


Reached the bottom and now we're just looking forward...


Well hello again, podcast fans. Welcome to Flatbasset Radio: Episode #96.

Folks, it's a gorgeous Friday here in Minneaolis, so I appreciate the fact that you've neglected your family, friends, & community to stay inside and listen to me mumble through another show.

This marks three straight Fridays with a new show which, for a purportedly "weekly" show shouldn't be much of an accomplishment, but if you've been following along you know just how rare it is that I get my shit together for three straight weeks.

This week's show if full of jams. Local music, indie rock, hip-hop collectives, classic punk, some anniversaries, some power-pop, some big, dumb, rock music, the Cover Of The Week, & the Flatbasset Flatclassic. Along the way we discuss why I should probably avoid talking politics on the show, prog or not-prog, indie rock in a post-Vampire-Weekend world, shoegaze of the Far East, the worst substitute for Conference Final hockey, some upcoming concerts, the low point of one of America's great pop-punk bands, and the greatest song in the history of mankind. Good stuff, for sure.

As always, Flatbasset Radio is completely free. I've finally set up a decent downloading site, so if you'd like to download Flatbasset Radio: Episode #96 (with all the appropriate iTunes tagging), just click here.
