Put on your baby blue polos and pop those collars cause this week we're talking about bro pop icon, Elliott Smith, and his 1998 classic "Xo". Wait scratch that, we got that wrong. Let's start over… Powder your wigs and dust off your petticoats cause this week we're talking Baroque pop. Or is it broke pop? Better play it safe and dump out your wallets, too. Well, whatever pop genre it is, it's a delightful sonic journey into one of indie music's most influential talents.
Join us as we dive in, discussing the unique blend of sounds, instrumentation, vocal affectation, and influences that define Smith's music. Will Matthew and Brandon agree on any of their likes and dislikes of this record? Probably not. But the one thing we can all agree on: the Wolverstains were definitely the Wolversteins when we were kids.
Be sure to support the artists by purchasing "Xo" on iTunes or wherever you get your music.
