Matt returns this week, as the Crush On Radio crew manages to utterly confound each other with their picks. Other topics of discussion include Matt’s recent visit to Portland, alternative comics and vintage porn, agit-pop, the commonality of Radiohead and Neutral Milk Hotel, Paul Thomas Anderson, complexity, density, and length versus quality, French Surrealist Plays, unusual vocal styles, and the TV Show Archer.
Picks this week are Frank Chickens, Radiohead, and Pere Ubu.
