Repeater

This week's show begins unannounced, with Yoko Ono/Plastic Ono Band (thanks to Chad for keeping the airwaves avant-garde in my absence). This was unplanned. I was late getting to the station, so if the grating sounds are too much for your ears, you can skip ahead to 9:30 to hear Fuguazi's "Argument." And on we go.

Highlights include Trevor's spirited defence of Buck 65's greatness (and my skepticism regarding the matter), a beautiful track from Saskatoon shoegazers, the Moas, and a rambling ballad from Sun Kil Moon's new album Benji. Sadly, Beck's track got cut off, but it's all-over the internet so you'll probably hear it eventually.

Take Me to the Land of Hell

Our second episode of the new year steals its title from Yoko Ono's 2013 release, which figured prominently in this week's playlist and book-ended another eclectic mix of hand-picked tunes. Trevor and I are still crammed into Studio B, awkwardly passing a single microphone back and forth. But we know when to celebrate our limitations and this show was no exception. I think it's safe to say that our banter is improving, even if our time management skills remain wanting. This week, we debuted some pretty exciting new tunes from heavy hitters like Chad VanGaalen, Beck, and St. Vincent, while highlighting some lesser-known gems from Rebekah Higgs, Anamai, and Jom Comyn.
