In this week’s audio catastrophe, Andrew is joined by Dr. Sam to discuss “best album endings.” Naturally, this means chaos, sarcasm, and several tangents about guinea pig recipes, Björk’s cat in pajamas, and why the Rolling Stones are basically for your mum.
Musical choices span the predictable (Stone Roses) to the avant-garde (Bjork making cat noises). Plus, the duo spends more time rambling about band names, random memories of Ipswich gigs, and the existential sadness of Lemmy’s apartment than actually talking about music. Classic Beat Motel.
Listen in for:
- ACDC’s post-orgasmic groove.
- Why The Stone Roses’ “I Am the Resurrection” might keep the party alive.
- The time Status Quo acted like divas while Motorhead just turned up.
- American Football’s emo nostalgia (and Andrew’s CD shelf musings).
- The art of “album-ending drama.”
Also featuring:
- Comments on TikTok that make Mastodon fans cry.
- What happens when cats in pajamas get fed up with Bjork.
- Why nobody should ever try to cover ACDC.
Like a chaotic mixtape of humor, niche knowledge, and unfiltered rants, this episode is exactly what you didn’t know you needed. Don’t skip the ending—you might miss a guitar amp smashing into oblivion.
