Ep. #1057: cub

Lisa G and Lisa Marr from cub are here to discuss the 30th anniversary vinyl edition of Come Out Come Out, the significant year in culture that was 1995, being pegged as “cuddlecore” in a time where labels and preconceptions were being shaken off on the regular, not identifying as men in a predominantly male underground music community and how some fans treated cub, vinyl records and the pros and cons of the internet, when Nardwuar asked Lisa Marr to join his band the Evaporators so she learned how to play the bass in five days by playing along to Ramones songs and also what it was like for her to meet Joey Ramone, learning how to be a performer in public, why cub broke up, what this reissue might mean for future cub activity, what’s next for each of the Lisas, and much more!

Ep. #1037: Sloan

Jay Ferguson and Chris Murphy from Sloan return to discuss their album, Based on the Bestseller, how their own bandmates inspire them to write better songs, why Chris’ “Open Your Umbrellas” reminds me of Dick Van Dyke and how Jay’s “Capitol Cooler” has its own whimsical yet pointed motif, connecting music, books, and movies, trying to have a fun album rollout, a funny observation about Chris by Mike O’Neill, writing topical songs, being an active band that some associate with the distant past, whether Sloan would be as big as Geese if this was their first album, touring, other future plans, and much more.
