Song We Like: Amazing Grace by Vienna Ditto
Songs We LikeWe love everything Vienna Ditto does. It’s almost certain that this production was not as effortless to make as it sounds…But maybe it was. Talent should be easy. (Featured on our #33 Podcast, Satan’s Eggnog.)
Podcast 32 – Dave Grohl and Frenemy Derek
PodcastsA christmas-EP-challenge is presented. The mystery of Oak Island is solved. A lot about Dave Grohl. Why having a dumb day job might be good for your soul. And, as always, all of our music is excellent:
- Los Barbos with Hombre Sin Nombre
- Greenia with You Never Check Your Mail
- Poet Radio with I’m Clean
- The Big Dumb with Mary
- E L I Z A B A N D with Be Your Own Good Friend
Thank you to Foot Gun for providing our theme song, and thank you to The Asheville Rock Collective, for existing. (Hey- also!!!! Please take a second to like Holy Crap Records on Facebook and friend us or whatever on Twitter.)
Song We Like: Hombre Sin Nombre by Los Barbos
Songs We LikeDon’t ever tell us what this song means, because we prefer to believe they’re revealing the secrets of the Freemasons and the location of the ark of the covenant. The singer is gutteral and passionate and we actually don’t care what he’s singing about.(Featured on our #32 Podcast, Dave Grohl and Frenemy Derek)
Song We Like: You Never Check Your Mail by Greenia
Album Reviews, Songs We LikeGreenia is a great, expressive band, – or person -, creative in all directions, revealing and obtuse in its listenable weirdness. We’re fans. (Featured on our #32 Podcast, Dave Grohl and Frenemy Derek)
Song We Like: I’m Clean by Poet Radio
Album Reviews, Songs We LikeThis is a long song, played with a few instruments that go in and out like an orchestra in different waves and movements. Poet Radio is a good band to listen to if you think everything about pop music has already been explored. (Featured on our #32 Podcast, Dave Grohl and Frenemy Derek)
Song We Like: Mary by The Big Dumb
Album Reviews, Songs We LikeShe threw the condom out the window and it caught the light of a passing train. What else needs to be said. This country/rock band from Nashville can capture the imagination and also sing a really good, tuneful, catchy song.

Song We Like: Be Your Own Good Friend by Elizaband
Album Reviews, Songs We LikeAn important and extremely catchy song from the deep well of good music that is Melbourne, Australia. Let this be your theme song for 2019. (Featured on our #32 Podcast, Dave Grohl and Frenemy Derek)
Podcast 31: Vive la révolution
PodcastsWhy Cinnamon likes to dress in drag. John’s rocking-out shorts. Recurring-character Summer McClinton explains the new French Revolution. The podcast travels to Mexico, Sweden, Ireland, France, and deepest Swannanoa, and, as always, all of our music is excellent:
- Acid Trip with Smashead
- The Spiral with Thursday
- IMPARFAIT with Mégalomaniaque
- Aaron Dunphy with Deodorant
- Wallin-Jison with Move Around the room
Thank you to Foot Gun for providing our theme song, thank you to the Hoodoo Music Festival for being our mortal enemies (show is on 12/15 at Turkey Point South in Greenville, SC), and thank you to The Asheville Rock Collective, for existing.

Album Review: Acid Trip by Acid Trip
Album ReviewsHeavy, repetitive riffs will make you forget the logical parts of your brain. Very experiential music from Guadalajara, Mexico. Our favorite song: Smashead. (Featured on our #31 podcast, Vive la revolution.)
