Ignored 114: Martin Popoff on Mirrors

popoff-001

Martin Popoff (author of 50+ books on heavy metal and hard rock) joins Cam and Sammy to revisit Mirrors, the possibly underrated 1979 full-length from menacing Long Island rockers Blue Öyster Cult. We try to categorize BOC (and fail), look at strange overlaps between BOC, the Clash and the Cars plus shine a light on an equally strange Harry Potter connection. Unique band. Unique podcast.

Ignored 113: Sam Sutherland on In on the Kill Talker

samsutherland

Sam Sutherland (author – Perfect Youth: The Birth of Canadian Punk) gets fairly hardcore with Cam and Sammy as the guys talk through the fury of Fugazi’s 1993 full-length In on the Kill Taker. The conversation talks about Fugazi as a concept, blink-182 as a gateway, a few Ani DiFranco mentions (for some reason) and whether we have a kinder, gentler Ian MacKaye in 2016. No sell-outs allowed!

Dalton Higgins (author of six books including Drake biography Far From Over, publicist) digs deep and talks up semi-obscure 1991 hip-hop classic Breaking Atoms by Main Source. A solid chat about why Can-Am rap can work, early Nas, late Kanye and the beauty of recording artists who burn bright and then fade into obscurity.
