In this episode I chat with Patrick Av who creates post-punk dramatic alterna goth under the project name Pazz Kluger. Pat is drawn to the drama of relationships in new wave and post-punk songs and seeks to write and sing about the darker, tortured side that we’ve all felt at times in our life. Even with the darkness, one can feel an underlying longing for peace and wholeness in each of these songs. We had a great conversation about his musical beginnings, his post-punk influences, and discussed some of the songs from his substantial catalogue. If you love Joy Division, Bauhaus, The Sound, The Mission UK, The Chameleons, The Church and other post-punk/new wave bands from the 80’s you will dig the music of Pazz Kluger as much as I do.

This episode is part two of the conversation Jim Anderson and I had with Steve Scott. Steve is a legendary yet obscure musician and artist who played an essential role in the integration of new wave music and art in the church in the late 70’s and early 80’s. His unique musical style and vision has had a profound effect on many. Please follow the links in the show notes to check out Steve’s albums and spoken word projects. If you enjoy Peter Gabriel, David Bowie, The Associates, The Comsat Angels and other early new wave/post-punk acts, you should check out his music and poetry. Thanks for joining us!

In this episode, Jamie Harmon and I finish up our discussion of Cerulean, the sophomore release from the band The Ocean Blue. I am a long-time fan, but Jamie has just been introduced to The Ocean Blue so we get a new fan’s perspective. This is one of my all-time favorite releases from one of my all-time favorite bands so I am excited to bring you part two of this two-part episode. If you’ve never heard of The Ocean Blue, but like Echo & The Bunnymen, The Smiths, The Mighty Lemon Drops or REM, you will really dig this band. Thanks so much for joining us!

In this Episode, an old college friend, Jamie Harmon and I discuss the music and lyrics of the band, The Choir and the influence they had on each of us. Chase the Kangaroo was a major influence on me, not only in my personal spiritual exploration but also in my subsequent love of post-punk music.

In this episode, Mark and I welcome his daughter Tegwen on the show to discuss the seminal yet obscure album Shaded Pain by the Lifesavers Underground. This album is in the top five albums that shaped my future musical tastes during my late teen years.

In this episode, I do a follow-up to Episode 005 - What is Post-punk and welcome to the Post-punk Heartstrings State of Mind– In that episode, I gave my own personal definition of post-punk and offered my pick for the first post-punk album released. After the episode, I received the following feedback from a listener: “Enjoyed this episode! I'd have been interested in more explication on what are the hallmarks of post-punk and why Television, Talking Heads, etc. were not counted. What exactly were the classic rock sounds you heard to keep them from being counted as a true post-punk album.” So, I decided to do a follow-up episode to explain a little more and provide some examples of why I excluded some of the releases the listener mentioned.

Artists/albums covered are:

Television – Marquee Moon – 1977

Taking Heads – Talking Heads – 1977

Ultravox – Ha! Ha! Ha! – 1977

White Music – XTC – 1978

Magazine – Real Life – 1978

In this episode, Jamie Harmon returns to the podcast and we discuss The Police’s new wave/post-punk/Jazz master work Synchronicity. The influence of The Police on later post-punk bands is often overlooked and Synchronicity displays the band at their most eclectic and chaotic. In spite of the infighting, the band was able to put together the #1 album in the country and create the most ever played rock song: "Every Breath You Take."

In this episode, I share about the impact of Michael Knott’s life and art through music and vocal tributes. Shortly after Michael’s passing, I put a call out for friends to share voice tributes through text and social media messages. I have combined these tributes with musical clips from Michael’s extensive catalog to help me process the passing of this creative genius and dear soul. It’s amazing to hear from and read about how many individuals have pointed out that they never  met Michael and yet they feel like they knew him. What an amazing legacy! I hope that fans of his work will enjoy reminiscing and hearing about the impact his life had on those who have shared in this episode. For those of you who are not familiar with Mike's work, you will hear pieces of Morrissey, Peter Murphy, Nick Cave, The Mission UK, Elliot Smith, and many others in his musical style. Please take some time to check out his music. Thank you so much for joining us in celebrating Michael's life!

Many thanks to Steven Guiles, Doug Gillis, Chris Taylor, Mark Feldbush, and Steve Chalk for sharing your voices in tribute!

Mark Feldbush and I continue our discussion of Sam (Leslie) Phillips’ albums The Turning, The Indescribable Wow & Cruel Inventions. These three albums represent a pivotal time in Sam's life. In this episode, Mark & I discuss Cruel Inventions, her beautifully moody and tense 1991 album that explores exploitation, consumerism, capitalism and the dark side of love while struggling to understand just how we all fit into this crazy messed up world.

"Sam Phillips performs four songs with the help of Erik Gorfain, who plays an electric guitar with amps the size of cigarette boxes. He also trots out a Stroh violin — a contraption that must be seen to be believed".

In this episode, Mark Feldbush and I discuss artists who re-record their work, the reasons why and then move on to our discussion of Echo & the Bunnymen. We take a track by track journey through the band’s 2018 album The Stars, The Oceans & The Moon comparing and contrasting the transformed versions with the originals.

In this episode, Tegwen, Mark and I continue our discussion with Side B of the post-punk gothic masterpiece, Shaded Pain by the Lifesavers Underground. If you haven’t listened to the first half of this chat, be sure to stop right now and go listen to Episode 025 - Lifesavers Underground - Shaded Pain - Part 1 first and then come back to finish up here. If you’ve never heard of Lifesavers Underground (L.S.U) but like Bahaus, Peter Murphy, The Mission UK and bands of that ilk, you should definitely check them out. Thanks so much for joining us!

Tegwen’s Post Punk Checklist:

 -Drony vocals

-Screechy feedback guitars, not played for precision ,

-Played for vibes, strummed repetitive guitars

-Sick baseline, but not necessarily noticed, yet still drives the song- energetic 

-Allows you to dance to it 

-Mix of drum machine, tinny echoey sound, slightly erratic live drums

-Creating a Phil Spectory wall of sound

-Very produced but not polished- lots of effects on 11 with echo/ reverb

“Out of Time” - Sam Phillips – Live in Philadelphia, PA in 1988 https://youtu.be/XIWxAY1GK3A

Articles quoted:

“My record company was demanding dishonesty from me, saying weird things like ‘This song just sounds a little too sexy. We don’t know why, but you’ve got to change it. And no, we don’t know how you’re supposed to change it.’ At that point, it just got ridiculous. I said ‘This is ludicrous. I’m not going to continue with this label.’ At first they were upset and said ‘You have to.  You’re under contract.’ I was selling well enough for them that they didn’t want to let me go. But I said ‘There’s a moral clause in my contract.  And you know what? I’ve slept with someone that I’m not married to. And I’m not ashamed to tell anybody about that. And I will.’ They said ‘Okay, you’re free to go. You’re out of your contract.’ That’s how easy it was to get out of it. That’s how silly it was.” -  Jeffery Overstreet; Year unknown; A Conversation with Sam Phillips, The Image Journal; Issue 60; Date accessed 2/27/23;  https://imagejournal.org/article/conversation-sam-phillips/

“I think the so-called born again movement in this country has about as little to do with real Christianity as a Xerox of a hundredth-generation print of the Mona Lisa has to do with the real thing. The born-again movement is more about obsession and narrow-mindedness and repression—and true Christianity is about mercy and freedom and love.”- CHRIS WILLMAN; AUG. 28, 1988;   Sam Phillips . . . Toni Childs . . . and Betsy : <i> A periodic look at who’s making news in pop music. </i> : Good Sam; Los Angeles Times, Accessed 2/27/23, https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1988-08-28-ca-1669-story.html

In this episode I have the privilege of chatting with Joe Lekkas and Ben Douglas, the two main drivers behind the band Palm Ghosts. I chatted with the fellas about their beginnings, inspirations and writing process as well as digging into some of the songs off of their latest album, I Love You, Burn in Hell. The duo, along with drummer, Walt Epting, craft melodic yet brooding rhythms and melodies that sway you back and forth between the New Wave/alternative sounds of the 80’s and the modern alternative post-punk revival sounds of the 21st century. Joe & Ben are a couple of really down to earth guys and I really enjoyed our conversation. The band manages to remind the listener of a myriad of 80’s & 90’s new wave/post-punk/alternative/shoe gaze bands while creating a new unidentifiable genre that seems to belong only to them. If you love Joy Division, New Order, The Cure, Peter Gabriel, XTC, Echo & The Bunnymen, Mission UK, The Psychedelic Furs, The Doves, Bloc Party, Simples Minds (Yeah… the list goes on and on!) then you will be as enamored with Palm Ghosts as I am. This year (2024), the band will be releasing a series of songs, one at a time, every 2 weeks, which will end up populating 4 EPs and ultimately a double LP by the end of the year so be sure to check them out on the streaming platform of your choice. Thanks for joining us!

A discussion of the post-punk music that moves us and how it affects our lives and causes us to self-reflect and dig deeper. This podcast marries the raw, honest, and artistic style of post-punk music with insights and life experiences of listeners and creators. The goal is to share from a place of vulnerability that leads to relation of trust and encouragement. 

In this episode, Steven Wesley Guiles and I discuss why we feel like Don’t Tell a Soul is The Replacements best album. DTSL is a much-maligned release amongst die hard Mats fans and Steve and I talk about some of the reasons this might be along with why DTSL and All Shook Down present the bands most mature and cohesive works.

This episode is part one of the conversation Jim Anderson and I had with Steve Scott. Steve is a legendary yet obscure musician and artist who played an essential role in the integration of new wave music and art in the church in the late 70’s and early 80’s.

My friend Mark and I sat down to discuss Sam (Leslie) Phillips albums The Turning, The Indescribable Wow & Cruel Inventions. These three albums represent a pivotal time in Sam's life and in this episode, Mark & I discuss  The Turning, the album that started Sam's break away from the Fundamental Christian machine and CCM music. We dig into each song and reflect back how they relate to her transition.
