Ep189: Ross Knight (Cosmic Psychos) Jul 28, 2020

Show notes

Australian pub/scum rock legends the Cosmic Psychos have blazed a trail of uncompromising working man’s punk rock, leaving both good times and empty beer cans in their wake for 38 years. The man at that helm is Mr. Ross Knight, a pleasantly rowdy fellow who literally lives on a farm, and is most certainly a bloke you can trust. Listen in! Go the hack on this episode of Protonic Reversal down under.

Ep188: A Deer A Horse (Rebecca, Angela, Dylan) Jul 26, 2020

Show notes

NYC Band A Deer A Horse are quarantined, but they did manage to get in some touring first. This is a free wheeling conversation with a young, working co-ed band in the somewhat uniform (and largely male!) genre of noise rock. Best and worst shows, the nature of rock crit. All of that and more! Three very thoughtful and funny folks breaking it down.

Ep187: Phill Calvert (The Birthday Party) Jul 20, 2020

Show notes

From the Boys Next Door to Junkyard, Phill was on the drums in the mighty and majestic Birthday Party. From the earliest days, all the way to the iconoclastic and influential Junkyard. Listen in! Noise + Nick Cave at his most unhinged, post-punk history told straight from one of the fellas that made it. Dang!

Ep186: Rick Valentin and Rose Marshack (Poster Children, Radio Zero) Jul 15, 2020

Show notes

Rick and Rose have had an incredible history in music, largely with their band the Poster Children. Navigating the original indie label movement, the early 90s gold rush, and the “I like it small” modern indie rock movement. All with an eye towards sustainability and making informed choices towards those goals. Rick and Rose have both appeared before, but this episode focuses on an album by album account, and all the sidebars that entails! It is like a Radio Zero crossover episode.

Ep185: Steve Albini: The Culture of Like and Subscribe with Steve Albini Jul 14, 2020

Show notes

LIKEANDSUBSCRIBE!LIKEANDSUBSCRIBE!DON’TFORGETTOLIKEANDSUBSCRIBE! It’s ubiquitous, every show and thing out there is trying to work the algorithms to be heard, seen or otherwise recognized. This episode is a 1 on 1 talk with Mr. Steve Albini about exactly that. This was meant as a 20 minute episode based on the single topic, but we expanded to other things, including monetization in general, commodification, etc.

Ep184: Tony Visconti (Producer: David Bowie, T. Rex, Iggy Pop, Thin Lizzy) Jul 06, 2020

Show notes

Tony Visconti is a legend in recording, not just Bowie’s long time producer, but a member of his band in the Man Who Sold the World days. Listen in as we hear tales from almost all eras of Bowie, as well as his work with Marc Bolan/T. Rex, Iggy Pop’s the Idiot, and Thin Lizzy (!). WOW!

Ep183: Rob Montage (Waxeater) Jul 04, 2020

Show notes

WAXEATER is a band from Louisville, KY. Rob is a teacher by day and noiserocker by night. He’s a good talker and has many opinions. He’s also very entertaining. They have a brand new record called Extra Medium, their first in *checks notes*, a VERY long time. Listen in, it’s a song by song breakdown and lots, lots more.

Ep182: Jordan Sobolew (Reptoid) Jun 30, 2020

Show notes

“One man noise-rock Aneursym from Oakland, California” Let that sink in. Reptoid sounds like the End of the World, but… you know in a good way. What kind of man embarks on an arduous endeavor like this? Jordan Sobolew.

Ep181: KatieJane Garside (Daisy Chainsaw, Liar,flower, Queen Adreena) Jun 24, 2020

Show notes

KatieJane Garside is a bit of an enigma for some. She has a new album under the name Liar, Flower with longtime collaborator Chris Whittingham. We talk about that: all her various bands (like Queen Adreena and Daisy Chainsaw), living on a boat, meditation, sublimation and eradication of self in creative pursuits and and many other things.

Ep180: Jared Warren (Big Business, the Whip, KARP, Melvins) Jun 16, 2020

Show notes

Jared Warren has done a LOT. And with the recent release of the compendium of the “lost” band between KARP and Big Biz: The Whip, there’s even more to listen to now. Listen in as Jared and Conan talk about and around Scotty, the Big Business arc, the time in and around the Melvins and a little bit about the… KARP reissues?! It might be the most detailed accounting of Big Business around!
