Happy belated Halloween! Crush On Radio returns to a spooky discussion of spooky, scary, creepy music. Also discussed: Rich’s October Concertapalooza (he’s so very tired), the passing of Lou Reed, bands you’d think you’d like but don’t, how not liking a band’s new work doesn’t mean you can’t like the old work, Andrew’s new in-ear headphones, and probably a lot more.
Picks this week: Pere Ubu, The Flaming Lips, and Fad Gadget
