Latest / Deprogrammed Music Podcast / Earworm Wednesday Rides Again
Transcript
- 0:20It's Deprogrammed, the podcast where we try to get you into a
- 0:24band. That's right.
- 0:24We've done all the work for you. All you have to do is press play
- 0:28and listen, and typically what we would do is try to get you
- 0:34into a band by creating a top 10 starter kit list via
- 0:37conversation, but we aren't doing that today.
- 0:40My name is Justin. You can call me band curious,
- 0:43and I am indeed curious about bands and I'm also curious about
- 0:47just music in general. And a lot of times that leads to
- 0:51a lot of ear worms. And as you may have noted, if
- 0:55you are already a subscriber, if you are, thank you very much,
- 0:59appreciate it. If you're not, please do
- 1:01consider hitting the subscribe button.
- 1:04I don't have a lot of time to kind of get caught in earworms
- 1:08and I try to do one a week, but the last couple weeks it just
- 1:13hasn't happened because I just haven't made space for anything
- 1:17extra. But I do want to do 2 quick
- 1:20things. Number one, I think a few weeks
- 1:23back I mentioned the new failure record.
- 1:26I did give it a full go. The new failure record is
- 1:30excellent. I will be following it up with
- 1:33the the back half of their catalog between where we stopped
- 1:38on our failure episode and the new record.
- 1:43I'm going to pick it up with. Look, I'm talking about my band
- 1:48a lot here on the show lately. And I I apologize for that
- 1:53because it feels weird to kind of push my own.
- 1:59But it The thing is this is what's happening in my life and
- 2:03I've been told recently not to apologize for it.
- 2:06So hopefully you're here for Justin because you're going to
- 2:10get a lot of Justin. That said, I we we had a show
- 2:16this last weekend and we also released our EPI think I talked
- 2:20about that on Friday the the release of the EP.
- 2:23So I'm not going to drown you with more talk of that other
- 2:26than the fact that it should be hitting streamers soon, maybe
- 2:31possibly by the time this episode's really released.
- 2:34I don't know. It seems to be taking a little
- 2:37longer to to do more than one song at a time, but we had AQR
- 2:44code for the EP on band camp at our show and my good buddy Eric
- 2:50of Dragtones and Bohemian Amigos fame scanned it and said here
- 2:55let me give you our propaganda as well.
- 2:59So somehow it had slipped under my cracks that they released the
- 3:03Dragtones released in EP as well.
- 3:06And I'll be linking specifically Atomic Martini because that's
- 3:14the song I want to talk about. I I like the other two songs on
- 3:18the EP, but Atomic Martini is the closest of the three from
- 3:25the EP that sounds like going to a dragtone show.
- 3:29And this is for fans of for fans of, like Social D Yeah, like,
- 3:37look, it's bigger and louder than anything you're going to
- 3:44get on the EP. But it's punishing in the way
- 3:49that the going to the show it like the good kind of punishing,
- 3:54the kind of punishing where you feel the drums in your bones and
- 3:59you can you can feel the bass in your bones and you kind of get
- 4:05rattled to the bones. So I recommend the name of the
- 4:12EP is pins in my doll. You know, maybe I'll just link
- 4:15the the whole EP. But to me, the winner of the
- 4:19three is Atomic Martini because it's the closest to to going to
- 4:23a drag tones show. And if you see the drag tones
- 4:25out and about, they've been doing regional shows, so you may
- 4:30have just missed them in South Carolina and North Carolina, but
- 4:33they they play locally as well. So if you're around here, go see
- 4:37them. Joe is really good at and he
- 4:42just sent me another one. So I'll try to get back to this
- 4:44one for next week's Wednesday. But I wanted to talk about this
- 4:48one. The name of the band is
- 4:50Broadside and the name of song is Blissed out.
- 4:53And again, I'll link this, but this is another song that Joe
- 4:58sent me that when you first push play on it, it shouldn't work
- 5:03like in any respect. And he said it's because it's
- 5:07got a lot of sense and that doesn't resonate with him.
- 5:11It that isn't the case with me since I I like a lot of sense.
- 5:17It's the energy that works for me.
- 5:20But the since Max matched with punk energy it it shouldn't
- 5:28work. It really shouldn't work.
- 5:31Nothing about it screams Justin will like this song.
- 5:36But I hit play and I immediately kind of did a what is this?
- 5:42And like not in a bad way, just a what is this?
- 5:44Not in a good way either, just a what is this?
- 5:48And as it kept going, like I told Joe, energy can't be
- 5:52denied. And I think truly that's what
- 5:55it's about. There is it, it has the punk
- 5:57energy. If you can stand sense and you
- 6:02like punk energy, give it a go. Because it did.
- 6:06It's stuck in my head all day. And maybe it is the sense that
- 6:13that did it for me, but I think ultimately I agree with just
- 6:18sentiment with the caveat that sense and punk technically
- 6:24doesn't work for me. This band proved me wrong.
- 6:27So blissed out by Broadside and I'm going to give his other song
- 6:33a go. He sent me so this must be one
- 6:35for him. Super saturated by Drug Church.
- 6:38I'm going to give it a go today. I just didn't get a chance
- 6:42before I recorded this. So apparently my voice is going.
- 6:45So what we're going to do is we're going to call it here.
- 6:48Yeah. That sounds like a good idea.
- 6:50Yeah. So we will see you all tomorrow.
- 6:52Bye.
