NATION OF ULYSSES "13 Point Program To Destroy America"/ Tim Green Jun 30, 2022

Show notes

The revolution will not be broadcast. Turn off your radios. The teens have taken over! This episode we dismantle the dismantlers audio tract, 13 Point Program To Destroy America by Nation of Ulysses. There was a lot to discuss this week as we let the sugar and caffeine do their thing. Joining us after the revolutionary exogesis, is NOU guitarist Tim Green. Join the political party and dance the state away.

HIGH BACK CHAIRS "Of Two Minds" / Peter Hayes, Charles Steck and Jim Spellman Jun 18, 2022

Show notes

Looking for the most hardcore release on Dischord? Look no farther. The High Back Chairs were so hardcore, they didn't need to scream or pretend not to care about hooks. This record is a lost power pop gem. Truly. Listen to us discuss the merits and mysteries of the record. Our resident academic, Drew Lichtenberg, drops in to give his breakdown of the band and we talk to everyone in said band, except their elusive drummer. A guy who was in a few bands. Anyhow, hope you enjoy this episode and it inspires a few folks to either buy this or dig it out of their collection to give it another spin and another chance.

SHUDDER TO THINK "10 Spot/Funeral" CD / Full Band Interview Jun 01, 2022

Show notes

I've got to say, it's great to have a chance and excuse to explore the liminal worlds of Shudder To Think even further. They're always one of my favorite groups to interview so it was great to catch up with Craig, Stu, Chris and Mike again. And don't worry, it's not me and Jeff rehashing the same things we said last episode about the release. We got our friends Drew Lichtenberg and Scott Sheridan to drop by and drop the needle for us (i.e- break down their thoughts on the release and the band). Hope its as much fun to listen to as it was to record!

SHUDDER TO THINK "Funeral At The Movies" May 19, 2022

Show notes

One of my favorite Dischord releases of this era, Shudder To Think's "funeral At The Movies" is the subject of today's show. No guests this week, so Jeff and I get caffeinated and go deep and wide with this one. Next episode's guests more than make up for this week's dearth.

DAG NASTY "Can I Say/Wig Out" CD / Peter Cortner and Mike Gitter May 07, 2022

Show notes

Holy Baker, our second longest episode ever! Two albums, one CD. Two guests, one vision. Two cohosts, one long spew of commentary. Well, if any band or release deserves an extra long deep dive, it's this one. Mike Gitter always brings great historic insight and was something of a hardcore Zelig. Peter Cortner needs no introduction. One of the most recognizable voices and singer on one of the most beloved Dischord releases. He doesn't do many interviews and it meant the world that he agreed to be a part of this episode. Listen all at once or in
convenient bite-sized chunks!

JAWBOX "Grippe" Apr 21, 2022

Show notes

We begin 1991 on the show with our Jawbox "Grippe" episode. Because of some last minute hold ups we don't have any interviews this time, just Jeff and I blabbing and pontificating form a couple hours and some change. The recent recut of the album is a great upgrade in sonics. Hear if we agree on our takes (hint - we don't) on this important release, Apologies for Jeff sounding like he beaned in on an AM signal for this (we're working out the bugs with his mic).

SOULSIDE "Soon Come Happy" / Bobby Sullivan Apr 08, 2022

Show notes

Wrapping up the early Soulside catalog with this comp CD, we take an overview of the band's trajectory and anticipate the upcoming lp. These guys were an important link in DC punk for me, both musically and spiritually. Hopefully this episode does them justice. Thankfully, Bobby Sullivan swings by the EOE offices to share his perspective and stories on the early days of Soulside. I've got to admit, I'm pretty proud of this episode.

THE SNAKES "Happy" / Michael Hampton Apr 01, 2022

Show notes

Everyone's favorite Dischord band's second release is celebrated on this episode! The Snakes final record "Happy". In all seriousness, this is a bit of a hidden gem of the catalog. Catchy power-pop careens against moody new wave and ornate 60s pop has babies with 80s dance music. Such is the world of Michael Hampton and Simon Jacobson's bedroom project gone awry. It was an honor to talk to Hampton, one of the most creative and melodic guitarists to emerge from the DC scene. Ben Merlis cohosts this one!

LUNGFISH "Necklace Of Heads" / Mitchell Feldstein Mar 19, 2022

Show notes

The time has come...when worlds (or Brian's podcasts) collide. This episode Brian and Jeff talk about the debut from the almighty Lungfish. Strap in with your space goggles and bible. Dischord goes prophetic. Later in the show Mitchell Feldstein and Lawrence Bertoldi chime in on this record and time/space via clips from Brian's podcast The Unanimous Hour!

SKEWBALD/GRAND UNION "S/T" Mar 09, 2022

Show notes

If you've already posted your Dischord 200 pics to social media and listened to the bonus disc included, you may be searching for somehow more archival Ian-related music from before the storm of Revolution Summer hit. Look no farther! The Skewbald/Grand Union 7" is your ticket to four minutes of "what if?" bliss. That's the subject of today's show and you may be surprised by our somewhat hot takes on the recording. Friend of the show (and vocalist for Locked Inside) Ed Mckirdy also drops some thoughts on the release, Come on in, everyones' invited!
