Unshuffled

Episode Two Point Zero: We Choose Our Second (and Third!) Bands

With the Atomic Bitchwax now behind us, we move on to pick the second band to get the album-by-album, track-by-track Unshuffled treatment. We ended up succeeding not only in choosing a great next band, but also the one after that! Tune in and see who we chose and why, and also to hear about the also-rans.

Episode One Point Seven: Force Field

We predicted that Force Field would be a sequel to Gravitron, and we were right. The question is, is it more like 'The Godfather II' or 'Speed 2'? Seven full-length albums in, are we still digging this band, or has Bitchwax Fatigue got the better of us? Listen and find out.

Episode One Point Six: Gravitron

We've got a faster, heavier Bitchwax album to contend with here, as the band flex their muscle and bring a new level of focus and intensity to their songs. Has this shift been a success, or left us yearning for a return to their retro roots? All the answers lie within...

Episode One Point Five: The Local Fuzz

"Fifty riffs in forty minutes" is the pitch for this audacious, one track, vocal-free slab of fuzz rock madness. The Atomic Bitchwax attempted something remarkable on 2011's The Local Fuzz. Listen to this episode to hear Scott and Matt discuss whether they managed to pull it off.

Episode One Point Four: TAB4

Chris Kosnik's got a mellotron, and he's not afraid to use it. Join Scott and Matt as we discuss the fourth Atomic Bitchwax album in depth. Another album, another lineup change, as they welcome a new drummer into the fold. The band continues to evolve in new directions - has it been a success, or have they forgotten who they really are?

Episode One Point Three: The Atomic Bitchwax 3

Unshuffled goes intercontinental. In this episode Scott and Matt discuss the change in artistic direction that comes with a new band lineup, as Finn Ryan steps in to fill the big shoes of departed lead guitarist Ed Mundell.

Episode One Point Two: The Atomic Bitchwax II

In this edition we run through Atomic Bitchwax II. You, the listener, get to enjoy tension between us early on as we discuss Track 2. The gloves come off and the tough love is dished out in heavy doses. Bunker down, make sure the shuffle button is off, and settle in for the ride. Keep your masks on for this one!

Episode One Point One: The Atomic Bitchwax I

The COVID episode: sanitize after listening. Scott unsuccessfully tries to cover up his cold. In the meantime, Matt & Scott give The Atomic Bitchwax I its proper due. We debate the genre of the album and break it down track by track. We are the new lords of your podcast app. Now... we will begin.

Episode Zero: We Choose Our First Band

Finally, the day has come. Matt & Scott sit down together and choose the first band to get the Unshuffled treatment. We'll be listening to this band's entire catalogue in coming weeks, so it's a big decision. We've made a list of five bands each. Five bands we KNOW we should have listened to by now but just never got around to it. We have no idea who we're going to choose, so let's just see what happens...

Episode Negative One: Bands You've Never Heard Of

We're just getting warmed up... This is a precursor to our zeroeth episode. In this episode Matt & Scott try to find good bands that each other hasn't heard of. You'll get the idea as we move further into it, but this is just a taste of things to come.
