Hipsters talk smack
These guys do a tweet synopsis at the beginning of each podcast to sum up their typically negative opinion of an album. In that vein, my quick take headline on this podcast: This is what happens when you have no other friends aside from those hosting alongside you to tell you how bad your podcast really is. It’s a good premise- review all the albums on the list of 1001 albums you must listen to before you die. But these guys take the position of bagging on the majority. Aside from each host having played an instrument, who gigged and maybe recorded an album, they have no actual music theory education or critique experience. They will knock albums that came out 30, 40, 50 years ago for the low production quality. But that was what was available in the day. Their utter lack of musical history and knowledge is staggering for people doing this kind of podcast.

The second was Surfer Rosa by Pixies, which they unmitigatedly fumbled....Read full review »
