Sinopsis

We're just four music fans living in Australia who love a bit of a debate and thought we might move our email discussions and rants into the podcast era.

    In an unusual turn of events, Lord Kev jauntily turns his gaze away from the pavement while the other Lords schlep along it instead. They can’t quite come to grips with the bent bottle cap that is Stephen Malkmus’ voice but goodness knows they try.

    28/11/2021 Duración: 45min

    Lord Ben drops another of his famed musical truth bombs claiming "There was only ever one punk band".

When the smoke clears and the first white dove flies free, who will be left standing to plant their flag, claiming the new reality as their own?

    21/11/2021 Duración: 41min

    The Lords are back to do a few more doughies in the Oz Music carpark. There are some heavyweights in this collection and the Lords ponder what makes an act truly Aussie: is it if you’re born here, move here, or just if you wear a pair of Stubbies now and then?

  • Episode 90: Good Onya, Genre #1

    31/10/2021 Duración: 36min

    The Lords explore the Oz rock and pop outback for acts that defined a musical genre worldwide, or created brand new genres that could only ever have come from the land down under. Ben goes straight down the middle of the road, Brett pogoes with punk pioneers, and Kev and Al get obscure and weird as per bloody usual mate.

    17/10/2021 Duración: 33min

    Apart from heartache and bills, kids sometimes give their parents some tasty tunes. The fatherly Lords don the slippers and puff the pipe as they consider what their progeny have shared with them.

  • Episode 88: Best Drum Tracks 2

    10/10/2021 Duración: 32min

    Strange times indeed!

    22/08/2021 Duración: 38min

Surely the lion, the tin man and Dorothy will all be ready with the three yellow bricks that lead directly from Deicide to Seal. Surely!

    15/08/2021 Duración: 48min

    The Lords serve up another slice of the four-string motherfudging pie as they revisit the best basslines of all time. However, does a bass “presence” actually constitute a bassline? Tune in and judge for yourself.

    08/08/2021 Duración: 47min

    'Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone ...' He's gone and life will never be the same. But how will we remember the paradox that was Lord Al?

Also: the grease monkeys delve into the natural world to do a final tune-up on the topic of samples.
