All episodes of the Unsung Podcast can be found below. It's a grand old time.
This week we have part one of our interview with Andy Falkous from mclusky and Future of the Left. We talk about his career, some of the things he thinks have been under appreciated from his catalogue, IKEA furniture, Diet Coke and more. A wonderfully funny chat.
Read MoreOn this episode we tackle all of Scott Walker’s albums from 1984’s Climate of Hunter until his final studio release with Sunn O))). We then talk about why Nite Flights is truly unsung.
Read MoreEven though we’re doing Nite Flights by The Walker Brothers, this two parter is basically all about Scott Walker. In this part, we talk about The Walker Brothers and Scott’s early solo career right up until the 1980s.
Read MoreThis week we pick three albums by supergroups that we each enjoy: The Director’s Cut by Fantomas, Take a Break by Me First and the Gimme Gimmes and NOLA by Down.
Read MoreSupergroups. Love em or hate em, there’s something to be said about a bunch of famous folk getting together to create a big ol racket. Some of which is good. Some of which is not so good. This week - we devise 5 different categories which we think all supergroups fall into, and also chat about some of our absolute favourites.
Read MoreOur good pal and occasional co-host Vicky Henry returns and nominates Dumb Flesh by Blanck Mass for your consideration. It’s a good un to be sure, but is it the one we should put in out discography?
Read MoreFrom semi angry Scotsmen to full on angry Americans, this week we’re jump into the brutal world of Boston metal/hardcore/grind supergroup All Pigs Must Die. Stay crusty.
Read MoreScottish history now (almost) firmly left in last week’s episode, this week we talk not only about The Crossing as an album, but the band’s entire discography. The good and bad. The classic and the Big Dad Energy.
Read MoreOch aye the noo and aw that. This week we’re bringing you into the world of Big Country. And we do that by way of the band’s history and, eh, the history of Scotland too, apparently.
Read MoreYou’ve maybe never heard of this band, but we guarantee you’ve at least heard a snippet of them. This week we talk about a true unsung band - ESG.
Read MoreEmocore? It was a thing. Lifetime are well regarded by a ton of bands, and the influence they had on emo is huge. We talk about the band, their off shoots, their place in punk and more.
Read MoreABBA are just bloody great. That’s the crux of this entire two parter, if we’re honest. We all love them. We’ve picked some songs we think are their most unsung (mostly) and explained why too. As per. Do it.
Read MoreWe keep our promises. This, friends, is part one of our epic ABBA mixtape. We even play a game called AXIS OF ABBA (retconned of course) which you can play along with today! This week - a little of the band’s history and we rank their most popular songs.
Read MoreIn part two we cover FNM’s career from King for a Day to Sol Invictus, and ask you the most important question - is King for a Day…Fool for a Lifetime an Unsung classic?! Listen and vote.
Read MoreFaith No More. Finally. We've decided that Mike Patton is to be the first artist to have had more than one album discussed on this podcast, and we begin by talking about this weird band's weird career.
Read MoreAfter giving his career a thorough going over, we finally get down the vital question - is Madvillainy worth of a place in our discography of unsung classics?
Read MoreTo mark the passing of the iconic MF DOOM, we take a look at his entire career in part one of our look at his life, work, and the 2004 collaboration with Madlib, Madvillainy.
Read MoreThe thrilling conclusion to our epic two parter in the history, influence and discography of the Cocteau Twins, followed by a proper analysis of their much vaunted classic Heaven or Las Vegas.
Read MoreWe return to normality as we take a second stab at dissecting the Cocteau Twins and Heaven or Las Vegas. We cover a lot of their career here and it’s a fact overload. But in a good way! Side B next week.
Read MoreThe gloves are off, and things are becoming increasingly ramble-y and confrontational. But we did it. We hope you enjoyed these four episodes. We'll be much better behaved this year.
