Welcome to No Failure. I'm Quentin. And I'm Travis. And on this month, what you heard, we're kicking things off with the brand new song from Tiger's Jaw. This one's called

Head is like a sinking stone. Jim Atkins calls he wants his vocals back. Got some big-time Jimmy vibes from that. They've been doing it since 2005, Trave. Hold on. Let me say it fully.

Jimmy World for those who don't know. Sorry. In case you didn't know Jim Atkins. He's the Jimmy. in Jimmy Eat World. That's how, yeah, that's how that worked out.

No, but Tiger, yeah, Tucker's job, I mean, they're... Have they been around since then? 2005. Okay, yeah, all right. So, yeah, cool. Yeah, that's awesome, man. Just third, third wave email, dude. I don't know if you remember, but their song warned me from 2020.

It was 100% my, the most played song of the year on my Spotify raps. I don't think I've ever, to this day, played a song on repeat. as much as I did with that song more than. Yeah, I remember that. Yeah. It's interesting, like, what do you call, I mean, what do you, what do you call a band that's been around that long that are still playing songs that sound like third wave, email? But now, are we in the fifth, fourth wave?

Like, what wave are we in? And does the wave, is the wave defined by the sound or just the time, the time range? Because a third wave was when they started. These guys started, if these guys started in the 2000s. 2005 is what it's, yeah, that's how long they've been active as a group. Interesting. No, I think it's the sound, trap. The sound.

So this is, yeah. Okay, so this third wave emo sound in 2026. Midwestern emo, they're from Scranton, Ohio. Well, it's just funny because, like, apparently third wave emo was considered the emo revival. but now it's being revived again with new bands that are making songs that sound like the emo revival of kind of like what wish he's doing I mean they're doing their own thing with it's weird yeah yeah let's just call it email huh how we just call it yeah just collectively just call it email yeah it's a big umbrella dude it's just weird because like this is the only genre that I've

known of that that's defined by these what they call waves you know what I mean that is interesting It's not like you call like narrowhead. It's not like they're in Oh, they're in fourth wave grunge. You know what I mean? Like you don't do it. It's just interesting.

Anyway. Yeah. So their new album, Lost on You is going to drop on March 27th. So the countdown begins. Cool. Yeah.

So again, that was, had as like a sinking stone. And I'm sorry, if you can tell my voice, do I'm a little sick. Picked up something. You know, Quinn and I heard

that when you have children, dude. You get sick all the time. Dude. Is that true? It has 100% true. I could go, usually I would, I would get sick once a year, maybe, before I had kids, dude. It's, I mean, it's one, it's every two months, dude. We had a lunch with my, uh, my sister-in-law and her

family. And they used the term that, that's kind of funny that maybe you've heard of you. They talked about daycareitis. Yep. Basically. Yeah, it gets even worse if your kid is in daycare. Yeah, once your kids go, go to daycare, like, yeah. dude. There's just some sort of illness that they're going to have. So you just put it in under like, oh, daycareitis, you know? Yep. That's where they get it from. So, well, Q, this is our first what you heard of 2026. And our first what you heard since October 29th of last year. It's been a while since we've done this. Yeah, dude, because we didn't do any for November. We dropped a bunch of rewinds. We did a bunch of

rewinds and then we did all of our best of episodes and we actually had five best of because we had part four split into two. Yeah. So yeah man. So as we've been saying typically

our first what you heard of the year is a good one because we've been sitting on these tracks. We've had plenty of time to like shape and refine you know, curate this these five tracks that we're bringing. Yeah.

And like we've joked before, and this holds true for this one, dude. I'm bringing three songs from 2025. That I somehow missed. Yeah. So, and all three of them are worthy of being on my best of for 2025. So I just about all of mine are new tracks too. Yeah. Either from 2025 or like brand new singles, you know, that just dropped.

So, yeah. All right, dude. So I'm kicking us off. And dude, I'm so glad. that you mentioned Jim Atkins. Because I'm bringing a song that Jim Eckons collabbed on. What are the odds, dude? I know, right.

I swear I'm not a plant. Dude. You didn't feed me this information. Yeah. Yeah, I'm not like whispering in. You don't have like a little earpiece in. Right. Mention Jim's name.

Mention Jim Hickens. That's cool, man. So you're familiar with J-SOM, right? I am. I like her. I like her a lot. Her stuff, dude. So she dropped an album called Belong back in October of 2025.

And God damn it, dude. This song is so fucking good, man. Jim Atkins on vocals, I know he must have brought, he must have brought in some of his songwriting chops in this because it feels like a Jimmy World song. Awesome. Yeah. So here we go.

This is, again, off of J.SOM's album, Belong. This song is called Float, featuring Jim Atkins. Come on. That is very, very clarity era, Jimmy World, which is probably my favorite Jimmy record, for sure. Yeah, definitely. He must have been. Killer track, man. Yeah, come on.

That should have been on our best of, dude. How? Can we slept on it, dude? Actually, we didn't sleep on it. We completely, we were already asleep. Yeah. Right. It didn't even make it.

Came and win, dude. Yeah. It's awesome. Yeah, Jimmy. I mean, you got to love him. And JSON, dude, what a great collab. That's awesome. I know, I know.

Yeah, the whole album's great. Really, really good. She has a lot of, she's collaborating with a lot of people on this one. Mini Trees. She made it on my best of a few years back. She's on there. Haley Williams, who is the singer of, you know, that one group. Paramount?

Yes, Paramount. She's on one of them. Paramore, Paramo. Paramore? There you go. Something like that. Yeah, yeah. J-Som, Float featuring Jay Mackins. It's a good way to kick us off, dude.

So I'm going to pass it to you, what you got. All right. I am going to start us with a song by somebody that I was turned on to by listening to a clip of an interview that was done on the red carpet. I don't even remember his name because he's my least favorite character on Stranger Things. The guy that plays Will's brother, I don't remember his name, Jonathan. Oh, Jonathan Byers, yeah. So, you know, I talked about this, I think, the last best of episode, how Joe Kiri, who plays Steve Harrington. Right.

Is a musician, right? DJO, Joe. Joe, yeah. And we know that Finn Wolfhard is a musician. apparently Charlie Heaton, which plays Jonathan Byers. He's also a musician. Maya Hawks, a musician. So they're all very musically talented group.

And he was talking about how they have a stranger things group chat, of course, like all the actors and stuff. Yeah. And he said that Joe had recommended a song to him. Basically, the interview was asking a bunch of people on the right carpet, like, oh, what's your, what have you been listening to lately? And he just dropped the name of this artist. It's a singer-songwriter. I've never heard of the guy before, but he goes by the name Way Dynamic.

And I was listening to this record that the song was on. So props to Joe Kiri for indirectly returning me onto this guy. And it was hard for me to pick a track off the record. But sticking with my guns on this, and I'm going to go with a track called E. So what's the name of the album, dude? Massive shoe. Sorry, guys. Massive shoe came out last year, so this was a, this was a 20-25.

So here we go. So this song, again, is called Ebiza. Yeah, that was great, man. What was he pulling from, dude? Like, funk? There's some funk in there. I mean, the record is mostly, like, singer-songwriter, folky type stuff. Okay.

I like that guitar riff, dude. Yeah, killer, killer. Very repetitive throughout the, you know, a strumming guitar. That was cool. Very cool. Are you talking with the baseline or? Oh, yeah, yeah. It was the same thing over and over.

Fantastic, fantastic baseline as well. But, yeah. So that song, I feel like he was pulling from early talking heads a little bit. Ah, there you go. But like the rest of the record, I don't think it's coincidence that his name is Dylan. His first name is Dylan, last name Young. A lot of the tracks, he sounds like a combination of like Jack Johnson, Bob Dylan

What's the guy's name, dude? Pink Moon Oh, Nick Drake. Nick Drake. So he's pulling from those guys with his vocal quality but he's got quite a wide range. It's a little like art pop kind of stuff,

folk pop but really good, really solid record like from start to finish another one that was missed in 2025 but would probably would have honestly probably would have made my list dude. I would have bumped another track. Yeah.

But hey, that's the story. That's how the cookie crumbles, dude. You can't listen to it all, you know? So that's why we do what you heard. It's our opportunity to correct our mistakes, you know. All right, Q. What's your next track that you missed in 2025? Actually, this one I'm going to backtrack a few years, dude.

Because I kind of want to, you know, I want to do a bit of a 180 here. We need at least one. We do. So, um, this. track, I came across, there's a really cool thread on the Shugase subreddit where they were, and by the way, I think we should cover this album. Do you remember that artist that goes by guitar, but the siloist? Yes, yes, yes, yes. I sure do.

The album Sun Kiss from 2002. Loved it. We need to cover that album, dude. Really? Okay. You do a whole of a song? Okay. I'm down.

So. That'd be a different type of episode. Yeah. Type of album to do. Yeah. I like that. Exactly. So anyways, this is, people were, the, the, the, the O-P was basically saying, I need more of this.

Please share recommendations for songs or artists that sound like sun-kissed by guitar. And most people were like, that's a tough one, dude, because nothing sounds like that album. But someone recommended this artist named Doss, D-O-S, and her song, Strawberry from 2021. on. And let's just let it, let's just let it sing, dude. Here we go. Yeah, I liked it. This is a, um, her vocal quality at least, like the, that effect that she had on her vocals. There's this, uh, man, I don't know what to call it, but there's an artist I listened to named, uh, she goes by Vitess X. You may have remembered her from the past. Yeah, you've mentioned her a few times. But there's this like subgenre of electronic dance music that,

draws from like the 90s and like 2000s like dance club type. I think you mentioned that that pink panther song that I brought for 2025 was in that vein. And this song was a little bit more like slowed down. So it wasn't really a dancey song. Yeah. But that's what it kind of reminded me of is just that like there's almost like a, if you follow the weird internet design slang. that had some strong

Frutiger-eraero vibes to make you. Excuse you? Sorry. It reminds me of like Dance Dance Revolution. That kind of stuff, yeah. Sure.

Yeah. Yes. Yeah, dude. For sure. And her, that is the only song of her. I've listened to a lot of her stuff just because I'm,

you know, just out of curiosity. Nothing else sounds like this at all, dude. From her, just kind of a more. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So what does she sound like typically? You want to hear another?

Listen to another. quick. Let's hear another one. Yeah. So here's another one of hers that came out in the same year, Trap. Let's just, you know what? Let's just see. Okay. All right. So here's another one of her songs. Came out like a month earlier. So this one's called Look. You see me on my own, myself on my own. You see me on my own. Myself on my own. Do it on my own. Myself on my own. You see me on my own. You see me on my own. that I'm on my own I'm not looking at my phone myself on my own

do it on my own you know That's exactly what I'm talking about that's straight up four on the floor brother Yeah that's a very specific like era of

electronic like dance club music And there's a lot And dude look I mean even the album art Like she's wearing a bucket hat Like that was Bucket hats for very She looks like Bjork

Yeah That kind of bucket hat was very popular At like clubs and stuff For some reason Yeah Yeah that's cool man That's her vibe for the most part. Strawberry is like an anomaly.

Okay. So yeah, dude, that was DOS. Just a taste of what she does, Jeff. Is it going to be a 180 time? Is it a 180 time? No, because you just influenced what I was going to pick. Okay. So I had this on my list, but I was like,

maybe I'll play it if it fits in well with a pick from Q. And sure enough, here we are. So the umbrella, I guess, you would put this under is kind of more broadly drum and bass. And there is a like a, almost like a subgenre, I guess called like jungle music. That's another electronic subgenre. And this one is, I guess that's what you would call it. Let me see what they classify themselves as because if there's one thing I've learned from this podcast, Q,

There is a lot of labels and genres that artists like to throw on them that I've never heard. But here it is. Yeah. Okay. So I called it. Jungle D&B. Breakcore. IDM.

Trap. So here we've got. This is an artist called Blacksmith. It smelled, or spelled in a unique way. B-L-K-S-M-I-I-T-H. And on this particular track, this individual. is joined by an artist that goes by Star Trash. And this is from his 22 album,

A Message from My Digital Twin. You're my Digital Twin right now, Q. Oh. So you go. This song is called 60 frames per second, or 60 FPS, I should say. Here we go. Dude, I listen to this kind of stuff all the time.

Give me more of that. Yeah, give me more of the, dude. Let me send you my playlist here. I got to, I call it, Can I call it D&B beats with a Z? D. Dian beats, Travis. You see what I did?

Yeah. Let me send it to you. Drum and beats. There's something about, dude, a lot of these musicians, they pull, so, okay, this is fun. So you know how vapor wave artists, they lean into a lot of, like, 90s digital software kind of aesthetics, right? Like Windows 96 or whatever, which is an actual artist, by the way, that goes by the name Windows 96. Yeah. These, a lot of these D&B jungle artists like this that just put out singles on the internet, basically,

they lean into 90s video game. I was going to say, this is straight back to Dance, Dance Revolution, like I'm saying. Right. Exactly. That's the exact vibe that I'm getting from the album covers. Yeah. Yeah, all that. And that's because there's 60 frames per second.

Yeah, there's this, there's a lot of video game soundtracks from back then. that really lean into this type of music. Yeah, man. A lot of stuff from like Sega and like, like, in 64 and stuff like that. PS2. Yeah, dude, look at this. I mean, look at this right here.

S-S-S-X tricky. That's the one I always think about. But like, this is an album. And he's literally just, yeah, this is an album cover from one of these artists. And he's literally just putting down the PlayStation. Like, he has literally the cover art. I mean, he's got PlayStation, the logo written all the end.

The original Xbox, a GameCube. GameCube. And it's, and it's got the, Like the TV with the... The CRT. Yeah, exactly. So anyway, these are saying, hey, man, this is it. We all know.

And he obviously used Microsoft Paint to make this little collage, dude. Probably. Anyway, but I just... Well, yeah, I'm into it, man. That's awesome. Exactly. Really cool album cover, too. On this, uh, blacksmith, is that what you're...

Yes, yes, Blacksmith. Yeah, uh-huh, uh-huh. Minus some vowels in there. Alvin worked. Yeah, that's how you got to do it. Minus A-val. And plus an extra vowel in there, too, just for fun. Why not sprinkle it in there?

All right, you. What do you got? I feel like it's time for another 180. Oh, yeah, dude. And this is how we're going to do it, man. This is how we're going to do the one-80est of 80s. Now, I don't know about you, but it, I struggle remembering the fact that Midlake hasn't had the same singer for a while now. Because I think he famously had like a really, really bad writer's block.

And kind of like went a little crazy. Do you know about this, Tripp? No, I didn't know. You're talking about the original guy or the new scene? Yeah. Yeah, yeah. No, no, no. The, uh...

What was his name? The original guy. Let me look it up, dude. Tim Smith? Yeah, Tim Smith. Yeah. The most generic name that you ever had. So, let's see.

The departure of Tim Smith and then I'm pulling this. This is off the fly, brother, okay? Um, because so, long story short, the reason I keep forgetting is because the guy that's stuck around and continues to do lead vocals sounds just like Tim Smith. Um, and I think he was in the band too, wasn't he? He was. He was. He was. He was.

He was. He was. So since 2012, Tim Smith had left the band. Um, a guitarist and backing vocalist Eric Pulito filled Smith's vacated role. And they started fresh with their album Antiphone, which came out in 2013. Yeah. So, anyways, yeah. Well, they put out a record last year.

They sure did. Is that where you're bringing? Yeah. Okay. Did you hear you hear you? Yeah, this was one of, you know, I bumped one of these songs because I was thinking about bringing. So I'm curious which one you're going to bring. I don't think I've listened to the full record.

So maybe I think I just turned into the single. It's like, okay, whatever. Okay. But, yeah. So this is track five off the record. Yeah. So again, this is, so this is Midlake. Yeah, so they've been, you know, they've been going strong the whole time just with a new frontman, which is funny.

I say new. It's been fucking 13, no, I'm sorry, 14 years since he left a band. That's crazy. That's depressing, Travis. Well, he put out, remember he put out his solo stuff? We actually covered it on the show once. Yeah, and it sounded like mid-leg. I can't believe that 2012 was 14 years ago.

Yeah. All right. So anyways, dude, this is a great track. You're going to love it. This is track five off of their album from last year called A Bridge Too Far. This song is called Make Haste. Yeah, Q, I'm no stranger to this song. As I said, maybe when the mics were off here, but this is the track that stood out to me on this record.

And I almost brought this to my best of. So I'm glad I'm glad it made its way under the show because it's a great song, man. Really good, pretty. Yeah, really good. Yeah, very, like, I mean, that bass and the guitar, haunting vocals, great harmonizing, solid track. I feel like most of their stuff, I mean, they've been very consistently, like, their lyrics are always, like, kind of like, old-timey and, like, poetic and stuff.

Especially trials. That's what, for me, that's why I can't do trials of Anacupanthor anymore, dude. It's a little. It's like the flip side of the coin for the folk bands. that we make fun of do. We talk about the staring out of Philippe Fox's Batser of episodes how like there's a fine line

between Fleet Foxes who we love and adore can't get enough of and of mice and men and those other bands Mumford and Sons those bands that I Is it of mice and men

or giants and men monsters and men something like that? Of monsters of whatever it is. Yeah, yeah. For some reason I can both like ridicule

and make fun of those bands and then flip on trials of an acupunther by midday and be like man, I'm so cultured and awesome when I listen to this. You know what I mean? But like it's the same types of lyrics, dude. It's the same type.

It's just a little bit more whimsical and a little bit more indie. And so somehow that makes it better. But anyway, yeah, that track is great. That's the one track that stood out. And yeah, solid, dude. Really good. All right, dude. Back to you.

I feel like it's going to be another 180. It sure is, dude. So I am stoked to bring this, man. This was a great track, and it is from a living rock legend, Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth. Hello. Put out a new single working on a new record. This is going to release on Matador on March 13th. So she's put out a couple singles already.

And she put one out four days ago. So this is Brand Spanken, dude. Brand Spankin' New is what I meant to say there. Brand Span Span. Span Span. Brand Spanx. So she, I'm reading an interview here real quick from altpress.com. But she was just talking about how she was working with her longtime collaborator, Justin Raisin. I don't really know who he is, but apparently she worked with him all the time.

She said, we wanted the songs to be short. We wanted to do it really fast. It's more focused and maybe more confident. And then she goes on to say, Justin really gets my voice. And she said, I started singing in a way I hadn't sung in a long time. This other voice came out. So here we go. Dude, did you know, this blew my mind when I learned this. She is 72 years old, dude.

She's in her 70s. What? And she still knows how to rock it, okay? Oh, shit, dude. Here we go. So again, Kim Gordon, this song is called Not Today. I loved every second on that, dude. Fantastic, right, man.

That was funny. I love it. Man, and that's just like pure Kim Gordon. Mm-hmm. And it's just funny to hear her say, you know, that this voice came out of her that, in a way that she started singing in a way she hadn't sung like in a long time. But like that's, like you just said, that's the Kim Gordon we know from. It harkens back to.

From back when, man? Yeah, to the Sonic Youth, like, counterculture. Yeah. Norse Rock kind of. It's there, man. It's just under the surface. Where did it come out? And great lyrics, man, the one that stood out to me.

And I don't know if this is what she meant by it. But I mean, she's like, where's my gun, postmate? Like, you're saying, like, one of these days you're just going to be able to order a gun and have someone deliver it from postmates. Right. Exactly. Basically, like, postmates, like, you get it quickly. It's almost like she's saying, I need, like, where's my, I need a gun right now, dude.

Yeah. You need deliver one to me. Where's my fucking gun? But, yeah, man. This is already on my best of 26 list. So we're only two weeks in here, dude. No doubt. Because if she's got a whole record coming out, man.

And that song is going to be hard to beat. So it might be, we might be playing this again at the end of the year. But anyway, fantastic song. Again, like I said, she's a rock legend. And yeah, there you go. What more to say? Kim Gordon. That song was called Not Today.

her new record will be out March, I believe, what did I say? March 13th, so you'll be in Dallas, Q. When? March 13th. Yeah, or I'll be flying back. Well, there you go. You can queue it up for your flight home. All right, Q, what do you got?

All right, dude. So this is going to be, hmm. What do? What do I do? What do I do? What do I do? you had bangers ready, dude. I got bangers, man.

Ready. Okay, let's do Melodies Echo Chamber. Familiar? That sounds familiar, yeah. I was only really familiar with her debut self-titled from 2013.

She's dropped a few since then, but this last year just dropped it in December. So, you know, like, I think I get a pass on it floating under my radar. But, man, it's so good, dude. So good.

You're going to love it, man. You're going to love it, especially if you're not familiar with Melody's Echo Chamber. It's a doozy. So here we go. This is from her album Unclouded that, again, just came out back in December, 20205. This one's called Burning Man. That's an instant save to my library. Right there, Q.

I know. That's fantastic. Yeah, man. That's her real house, man. Everything about it. It's what she delivers, dude. I'm trying to remember what record of hers I'm familiar with. Well, it's probably the self-title, dude.

Yeah, I recognize that album, so. Yeah. Has she, she surely appeared on the show before, right? Yeah, I don't know. Can you, let us let us find out. Let's search the feed, brother. Together. Melody.

Uh-huh, uh-huh. Melody. Yeah. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. No, uh-huh. Yes. She showed up in 2021, a song called.

Oh, wait. She was featured in a song. Huh. Only one man by Luna Moodoid, Moodoid, something like that, with Melody's Echo Chamber. Oh. So there you go. She was featured in a track that we brought.

Cool. Yeah, I remember that. Nice. So there you go. Well, that was fantastic, dude. Yeah. Psychedelic. fantastic bass line, dude.

Yeah, she's got a great flavor of that. I need to pick up a bass, man. I need to learn how to play bass. I always thought. I always thought that'd be fun, man. I would love to do it. If you're listening out there and you work at a musical instrument store, why don't you send me a bass guitar?

Is that how it works? Is that how it works? I guess it is how works. Sure. You just got to ask, Travis. Yeah, man. There's no harm it. asking. Yeah. So there you go. Fantastic. So back to you, brother. All right. I know nothing about

this group, but I stumbled upon their song on probably some sort of like new indie music playlist or something like that. I checked those out quite a bit just to hear what's new, you know? What are the kids listening to these days? Yeah. What's the, what's the high? Hot costs, you know? And man, this is this song great, dude. May have shown up on my best of 2025 if I heard it quick enough, which I did. Came out on December 5th. I would have had it in time, but here we are.

It doesn't matter. We're playing it now. So this group is called the Phoenix Foundation, not to be confused with Phoenix. The other group of that name. I was really confused, man. I know you were. So these guys, I don't know, they've been around for a while. They look like older rockers.

They're from New Zealand. That's all I know about them, Q. I remember literally reading the Spotify bio for the first time right now. But they're known for intelligent, inventive, and richly detailed pop music shaped by diverse influences. That's right. Did you just come up with that on the spot? Wow. No.

Oh. You should be a journalist. I mean, yes, I definitely, I sure did. This song is called Vampire Class, and I'm going to let it speak for itself. Here we go. Man, I was getting some heavy wallflowers vibes, dude. Dylan. One head line.

You're right, man. Just another Dylan, but a Dylan, but not Bob. Yeah, right, one of the Dillans. Yeah, I was getting Dylan vocal vibes and a little Tom Petty. Yeah, that too. For sure. But yeah, what a catchy, catchy song, great hook. Nothing, nothing.

Nothing like, yeah, I haven't gone back and listened to anything else that they've done, but they've been putting out albums since 2011. Their last full-length record came out in 2020. So they've been dropping singles here and there since then. So maybe it's about time for a full release. But I tried to see if this single was, you know, supposed to be like a precursor to a full album or something. You said they've been putting an album since 2011?

Try 2007, brother. Why don't you try to, uh, yeah, well, I'm just going off Spotify, okay? Okay. Well, 2003 is their first album. Now, wait a minute. Horsepower. I got to click, I got to click C. All Q. Come on, Sean.

Whoops, Ricky mistake. You're right, 2003. So anyway, they've been around, they've been around for a long time. Since we were in high school. For a long time. So, yeah, there you go. The band was called The Phoenix Foundation. That song was called Vampire Class.

And, Kee, what's your last pick for us? All right, man. I don't think this artist is a stranger to the pod. I know I've brought one of her tracks. I say her. It's a full man, but I think it's mostly just... Her name's Barry Lindsay. Her band is called Barry.

And yeah, I know I brought a song from her album Happy to Be Here, which came on 2019. I know I brought a track from that record to the pod before because it's just, I mean, just, I just love everything that she does, dude. She dropped a little EP back in 2023 called 5K, and we're going to bring track three off of that record. You're going to love this drive. It's impossible not to like this one, dude. I'm ready to love it.

This one's called Unholy Appetite. I got my body right. Push if you pull. It's a feel-good song, Q. That's Barry, dude. That's what she'd do. That's what she'd do. Barry is Mary.

Very, yeah. Yeah, that's good. Nothing. 5K? I mean, I feel like that's what you put on while you're running a 5K, you know? Just get through it, you know. You're pumped. Yeah.

Yeah, I've never heard of her. I like it. Well, check out her album, Happy to Be Here in 2019. See? She's happy. Just like we said earlier. Happy to be here. Oh, you said this trailer.

She's a group of people. Yeah, but this is her project. Okay. This is her thing. Fair enough. Yeah, dude. Nice, man. Her song, Habits from Happy to Be Here, one of my favorites.

Awesome. All right, dude. You got to wrap us up, put a little bow on it. All right. Well, man, I'm bringing us home with a strong one, dude. So, this is the, feels like this is the time where 90s, shugays bands and alt rock bands are saying, hey, let's make some music again. Like the OGs.

The OGs. And then, dude, couldn't be happier about this collaboration and this new record that's coming out. Lots of good collabs recently. Lots of good collapse, man. Here's another one. So this is a, they are calling themselves Good Day Father, and it is a collaboration between Tanya Donnelly, who is the singer from throwing muses and also of Belly, which is another group. She's also been in the breeders for a little bit. So this is, you know, iconic rocker, just like Kim Gordon. And here we go.

You're ready for who she partnered with? Brady Chaff. Brian Futter, who is the guitar player from Catherine Wheel. Notice. Does he sing in Catherine Wheel, too? He probably does backing vocals. But no, he's not the singer. But he's the guitar player.

Well, that's awesome, dude. One thing I love about Catherine Wheel is the guitar, dude. Obviously, the vocals as well. But there we go. So, again, Good Day Father. They put out a single, the record. I don't know when the record's coming out. Maybe I can try to find out while this is playing.

Okay, it's going to be an EP. So here you go. This is going to be the first track of the EP. And you're going to love this, man. Here we go. This song is called Sonic Amadea. Definitely in the same, like, Sonic Realm. as Catherine Wheel.

Oh, yeah. And I can't, I mean, if it's him, how could it not be? Is he producing it, too? That, I don't know. Yeah, so he did an interview where he talked about this a little bit, but the interviewer asked him a lot of questions about Catherine Wheel, which is kind of funny. It's like, dude, but you, you know, he probably wants to talk about his current project. I mean, come on now.

Yeah. Come on now. Yeah. But it sounds like they self-produced it. I'm sure they had somebody in a studio that they were working with, but it's not going on on a major label or anything like that. So it's going to be a three-track EP, and it's going to come out in February,

first week, February 10th. And then he even says in this interview that there is plans for another EP in 2027. So who knows if that means that he will be working with her again, or if he's going to work with somebody else. But yeah, he's making music again, which is cool. Yeah, that's awesome. So anyway, yeah, I just, you know, it's great to hear back from these musicians

that have been so crucial and, you know, pivotal to the 90s music landscape and that a lot of us have, like, kind of stumbled upon over the last decade or so, you know, where it's like their music had already came and went and like we're just like discovering it later in life and to be like oh well I guess we're never going to hear new Catherine wheel or what was the name of I think the what you heard that feature Catherine it was called where have you been all my life captain yeah yeah because it was so shocking to me it was just I know man because that those two records are are now too my favorite 90s records you know for sure for mint and chrome chrome for sure Chrome is up there for me.

If I had to make a top 10 90s record list, Chrome is on that list for sure. So anyway, so again, that was a good day, father. And that was again, Brian Futter of Catherine Wheel and Tanya Donnelly

of belly and throwing muses. So there you go, Q. We did it. We made it through our first what you heard of 2026. We did it. And, um, we've teased this in the last couple of episodes, I think.

But yeah, we're going to do 311. So we're going to cover From Chaos, their 2001 record, which, you know, honestly, I think I can safely say that aside from Amber, I don't think I've really listened to any of this record. Same. Maybe I've heard the singles, maybe I'd recognize them. But, yeah, so we may have to have Mitchell kind of lead the episode because he will be joined. And that's why we've needed at least, we've needed at least one more, one new voice on the pod for a while now. Yeah. We don't get guests on here enough.

So why not just bring in our childhood friend? Yeah. Exactly. Exactly. I feel like that's what this podcast is partially about, dude, just like talking about. Yeah. Our formative years of listening to music. Totally.

Mitchell was right there, dude, right there alongside us. So we'll put that out here in a couple of weeks. and then we'll just keep trucking, trekking through 2026, dude. I hope this year flies by as fast as last year's, dude. Well, let's get the ball rolling here on certain things that need to end. So we can move on. Yeah. You know what I mean?

I hear you. Amen. All right. So, yeah, as always, check us out on Instagram if you want to get in touch with us. And then check us out on the Pantheon Podcast Network, Pantheonpodcast.com. Do we have an outro song, Q? Yeah, dude, with your permission. I want to play that Barry song again and talked about it earlier.

Granted. Just an excuse to play that song again on this pot, dude. The song is called Habits from the album, Happy to Be Here. It's just a solid song, dude. I love it so much. So, yeah, let's outro with that one. Well, all right. Well, that'll do it then for us again soon.

We will have a 311 episode drop. And the world's just going to keep on spanning Q. That's how it works. That's how it works. All right. Well, thanks as always for listening. My name is Travis. And I'm Quentin.

You all take care.
