For episode 104 I'm joined by one of the biggest guitar bands of this generation, it's The Snuts!This one's a fun episode. Jack and Callum were on fine form and gave the perfect level, of chaos, heart felt sincerity and project promotion that I always strive for on this podcast.The Snuts new album, Joy In Short Moments is released on Happy Music Group and Virgin Music Group on the 30th of October and is easily their best work to date. All 3 of their previous records have hit the top 5 in the album charts, it's inevitable that they'll make it 4 fort 4. Their album of choice was In Memory of Loss by Nathaniel Rateliff and in this episode we deep dive the record and discuss Jack and Callum's connection to Nathaniel's debut record. We also discuss how Joy in Short Moments was the most fun record of The Snuts career to make, how LCD Soundystem have the best intro of all time and the unparalled satisfaction of a stubby can. It's out now wherever you find your podcasts.
For episode 103, I'm joined by Radio royalty. From Absolute Radio, it's Ben Burell!Ben is the voice of Absolute from 1pm to 4pm Monday to Friday where he can be found dishing out indie bangers to music lovers across the digital airwaves with a firm "no repeat guarantee."This was a VERY fun episode and Ben's album of choice is an absolute (no pun intended) all timer of a record, it's Jamie T's softmore classic - Kings and Queens.In this episode we discuss consuming Kings and Queens with a grotty hangover, snogging your way out of physical discomfort at indie discos and how Jamie T has done more for mens mental health than any government scheme ever could. We also talk loads about the Oasis documentary Don't Look Back In Anger, so that gives a pretty firm time stamp of exactly when we recorded this one.It's out now, wherever you find your podcasts. Best enjoyed with ten cigarettes and five snakebites while running for the last train in Surrey.#JamieT#Indie#BenBurell#MusicPodcast#AbsoluteRadio
"The very first “post-surf” band. This London four-piece (extended to five on stage) was formed in 2021 when Connie came to London from France and met Archie (bass) from Worcester and Steve (guitar) from York. They blended their influences so seamlessly that they had to invent an actual genre to describe their sound. “Post-surf” is a pun to the “post-punk” dominion over the London scene of the past decade, alluding to the twist operated by these boys: post-modern themes in their lyrics and reflections on the chaos of modern life, but the warm and soothing sun of 60s California on the surface, embodied by their trademark four-part harmonies, surf guitars, and inexplicably strange chords. Their first album, a series of haunting ballads expunged in an effort to shave down their growing catalog, was released in 2025. “Poorly Planned Missions… Executed Worse” features ten tracks dripping with the band’s sonic identity and commitment to writing a song that sounds like it could never be written twice. Having opened for acts like The Big Pink and The Molotovs, they are gearing up for the release of the much louder follow-up to their debut, a cinematic whirlpool of indie bangers, introduced by their brand new single ‘Neverknows’.”Former guests of the podcast include….IVO GRAHAM, RUSSELL LISSACK BLOC PARTY, SPRINTS,WESTSIDE COWBOY, PIRI, WHODEE,PRESTON (THE ORDINARY BOYS),FELIX WHITE THE MACCABEES, ELEANOR K,CHRISTOPHER MCARTHUR BOYD,JAKE FARRELL (SCREEN ROT PODCAST)WILL GAMBLE, MURKAGE DAVE,SWIM DEEP, SUNFLOWER BEAN,JAMIE WEBSTER, AMY MATTHEWS, SAM DELANEY TOP FLIGHT TIME MACHINE, LIAM WITHNAIL,TONY MACCARROLL (OASIS), ED JONES,MYSTERY JETS, THE HOWLERS,WE ARE SCIENTISTS, ANNA SODEN.KYLE DALE, SOPHIE SVEINSSON, LOUISE SCHOFIELD, SILVER TONGUE RASCALS, CASTLE RAT,DANIEL MCKEON, THE ROLLING PEOPLE,ANDREW CUSHIN, GOLDIEROCKS, DAVID CORREOS, 22 GRAND PODJAMES ALLEN, THE HOWLERS, WESLEY GONZALEZ, NED NEWMAN, FESTIVAL FRIEND RUSSMATTHEW CROSBY, ROBIN ALLENDER,NORAH HENDRIKS, COURTING,PRESTON (THE ORDINARY BOYS),DUCKS LTD, THE BIG PINK, CHARTREUSEBEATLES DUB CLUB, AMELIA BAYLER,RAJIV KARIA, JESS GREENFIELD - NOEL GALLAGHER’S HIGH FLYING BIRDS.

For episode 100 I'm joined I'm joined by a massive guest, from the actual, literal, bloody Maccabees.... it's Orlando Weeks!100 episodes is a major milestone, so to be joined by such a great guest feels like a perfect fit. Needless to say, it was a joy to spend time with Orlando deep diving PJ Harvey's Let England Shake. We also discuss the importance and fragility of male friendships, reforming The Maccabees, having harry Styles as a fan and the night the sky turned "Silk Cut purple" during PJ Harvey's mind melting set at Bestival 2011.It's no secret that I'm a total Maccabees super fan. It must easily be over 30 times that I've watched the band live, even more with Orlando's solo shows. But I think I kept the balance just about right between professional broadcaster and obsessed fan that's freaking out.If you haven't given the show a cheeky follow or 5 star review on your podcast platform of choice, I'd be very grateful if you could please! It really helps to bump the show up and get more eyes on the show. Onwards to the next 100.“THIS Album…” is the podcast where each episode a guest and I deep dive an album that they have an emotional attachment to, one that captures a particular moment in their life. And we have a proper laugh while doing it.Rather than talking guitar pedals and snare drum recording techniques, I want to hear how bad someone’s haircut was when they discovered an album, who broke their heart and what questionable denim they were wearing.The show reached #1 on Spotify’s Music Podcast Chart and continues to build a highly engaged social audience, with clips from the podcast generating over 1 million views on Instagram in June 2026 alone. Former guests of the podcast include….IVO GRAHAM, BLOC PARTY, SPRINTS, WESTSIDE COWBOY, PIRI, WHODEE, PRESTON (THE ORDINARY BOYS), FELIX WHITE - THE MACCABEES, ELEANOR K, CHRISTOPHER MCARTHUR BOYD, JAKE FARRELL (SCREEN ROT PODCAST) WILL GAMBLE, MURKAGE DAVE, SWIM DEEP, SUNFLOWER BEAN, JAMIE WEBSTER, AMY MATTHEWS, SAM DELANEY, LIAM WITHNAIL, TONY MACCARROLL (OASIS), ED JONES, MYSTERY JETS, THE HOWLERS, WE ARE SCIENTISTS, ANNA SODEN, KYLE DALE, SOPHIE SVEINSSON, LOUISE SCHOFIELD, SILVER TONGUE RASCALS, CASTLE RAT, DANIEL MCKEON, THE ROLLING PEOPLE, ANDREW CUSHIN, GOLDIEROCKS, DAVID CORREOS, 22 GRAND POD, JAMES ALLEN, THE HOWLERS, WESLEY GONZALEZ, NED NEWMAN, FESTIVAL FRIEND RUSS, MATTHEW CROSBY, ROBIN ALLENDER, NORAH HENDRIKS, COURTING, PRESTON (THE ORDINARY BOYS), DUCKS LTD, THE BIG PINK, CHARTREUSE, BEATLES DUB CLUB, AMELIA BAYLER, RAJIV KARIA, JESS GREENFIELD - NGHFB.
