Podcast #70, “Secondary Education”

indie-rock-is-deadThe podcast ought to be sounding a bit better, as I’ve finally tracked down the mic I used for the show. So, rather than that hollow, slightly echoing sound the back announces have had lately, you ought to be able to hear my voice kind of rocking it. We’ll see what the levelling process did to everything later.

This week marks another venturing into the stacks here at the Nuthouse, allowing me to bring you a slew of classic tracks with which you’re probably familiar, as well as some smaller bands to which you’re being introduced for the first time. It’s a good mix of what might be termed “college rock.”
