This week, Mark and Brendan play bits of new singles from England's audiobooks (Yes, that is a band name) plus a fab new club track from Iceland's GusGus (yes, the "Ladyshave" band, if you recall 1999.) Scotland's Koreless is our next track, also on an electronic vibe, followed by a great new tune from the London guitar band Wolf Alice, and their much lauded new record Blue Weekend. Then Mark digs deep for an archive track from the 1980s Postcard Records band Josef K, with "Sorry For Laughing." (This one has a fun bonus, as Brendan first heard that song as a cover version, on Propaganda's 1985 LP A Secret Wish., which is a perfect '80s record according to him.) (Produced by Trevor Horn!)
Plus, as always, we preview the six tracks that we two have chosen for bonus reviews in our e-mail newsletter. If you are new to the show, please take a second to sign up for that newsletter right here. <---
