    The Aces' Cristal Ramirez's Spark Is Paramore's Riot!

    The Aces' Cristal Ramirez's Spark Is Paramore's Riot!

    Today on Consequence of Sound, we are sharing an episode from The Spark Parade.
    The Aces' front woman Cristal Ramirez was obsessed with Paramore's Riot! from the moment it was first played for her. The energy and lyrics both blew her pre-teen mind, but it was Hayley Williams who really caught her attention. A flame-haired teenager who lead a successful rock band in a male-dominated industry, Williams provided endless inspiration for Ramirez as her own musical aspirations took flight. As a dedicated Paramore fan, she's always seen the band as a beacon of light and a force for good in the world.

    The Shins - "New Slang" and "Phantom Limb"

    The Shins - "New Slang" and "Phantom Limb"

    Today on Consequence of Sound, we are sharing an episode fromThe Story Behind The Song.
    One of the most renowned American indie rock bands, The Shins have carved a lasting legacy with their distinctive blend of folk, pop, and indie rock. Formed in 1996 by frontman James Mercer, a chance inclusion of “New Slang” in the indie movie classic Garden State helped to take their indie buzz mainstream just as their breakout sophomore album, Chutes Too Narrow, propelled them to indie stardom.
    On this episode of The Story Behind the Song, Peter Csathy speaks with The Shins’ James Mercer just after the passing of former The Shins’ bassist Neal Langford to discuss how Neal helped push him to perform, the conception of “New Slang” and also the more recent “Phantom Limb.”

Electro-funk duo Chromeo selected 10 essential funk albums that emerged from Dayton, Ohio's legendary music scene in the '70s and '80s. In a Crate Digging interview with Consequence's Associate Editor Paolo Ragusa, Chromeo's Dave 1 and P-Thugg track the evolution of Dayton's funk output, from the "bizarro Parliament Funkadelic" group The Ohio Players to Slave, to the legendary work of Roger Troutman and Zapp.

Hopscotch Willie ,

Comprehensive in a way few music podcasts are

In an era where there's a higher currency on brevity and attention-grabbing headlines, I always appreciate the comprehensive nature of CoS' articles. This extends to their podcast network as well. Their audio reviews (current favorite is the new Saba record) give you the depth and analysis of a traditional web-published review, but with the added bonus of being able to listen to it on the go. Snappy editing, wonderful song snippets, and excellent production.

I don’t really have the luxury of always knowing what’s going on in music…

… And this show has introduced me to a lot of stuff that I was in the dark on. And even cases where I would’ve been otherwise too busy to realize that, for example, a new Decemberists album had come out.

Full disclosure, I produce this podcast network – but I’m so busy producing podcasts that I don’t actually have the chance to actively listen to new music… And therefore, this show has is been really helpful!
