Ten Songs Podcast #25a

I’m back in the UK now (bah) but my last house in Australia was in Highgate Hill, Brisbane. It was a big Queenslander with roaches and a good mix of house mates who passed like ships in the night but were all vaguely into punk and hardcore of some kind. In times gone by, I probably would have done some Aaron Cometbus inspired zine about the history of the house and all the kids who had lived there. But this is 2011 not 2003 and I’m a lot lazier than I used to be so instead I decided to make a podcast featuring sets chosen by each person who was living in the house at that time.

This show is in two parts cos its really long. The first half (Podcast 25a) features a set of indie/garage/lo-fi tunes from Wex along with Kieran’s set of more straight up hardcore. The second file, podcast 25b, features my set of the usual melodic punk/hardcore stuff and Simon’s set of post hardcore tunes.  Please take the time to listen to both files, cos my ex-house mates all have rad taste in music and there’s a lot of gems in this show from bands I wasn’t really aware of.
