Episode 30 – Harry Potter Horcrux Shit: Find out what the ultimate holiday gift for all the men in your life is! Also, John gets more new-agey than anyone thought possible, Cinnamon dismisses the possibility that music can sound like a decade, your hosts make a weak attempt to understand some Spanish, and no attempt whatsoever to understand Chinese. And, as always, all of our music is excellent:

• Beach Hotel with Tu Revolucion
• Uppertiers with Idiot’s Move
• Make No Bones with Rosie
• Girl York with Heroine
• 白目樂隊 The White Eyes with In Lust I Lost

If only they hadn’t broken up. One of the best darkwave/sludge (John insists that they are ‘industrial’) bands that we’ve heard. Our favorite song: Sally. (Featured on our #29 podcast, How to Get the Fans to Sing.)

Episode 29 – How to Get the Fans to Sing. Why anonymity is the new fame, a cathartic call-and-response from Tongues of Fire, and John’s secret desire to be sung-back-to. Israeli rock and Swiss rock both have their Holy Crap debut. And, as always, all of our music is excellent:

• Anti-Social Club with Six Feet Under
• Tongues of Fire with Sunburn
• HSY with Sally
• Organ Mug with A Somewhere Place
• Appetizer Cheesecake with Bicycle
