This week, with Andrew busy preparing for his new career as a college professor, Rich and Matt discuss genres and things they just don’t get, musically, and those sounds that trigger the “Don’t Care Switch.” We also talk about media drive failures, Ralph Records, getting into The Residents, the problem with U2 and their lawsuit against Negativland, Coldplay ripping off Kraftwerk, metal, hip-hop and rap, and much more.
Picks this week are: Keane, Television, and Snakefinger
