The Listening Club - 20th April 2025

Salutations folks,

Hope you're all doing good. Amsterdam's keeping on with the dry and sunny although personally, I could do with a few extra degrees warms, which I'm sure I say every year around this time. Looking good for Kings Day, too, even though the coats will be staying on, I think. Ah well. Plenty of home entertainment to be had also, flipping between live feeds of moose migration in Sweden and Semana Santa processions in Seville. Slow TV FTW, for sure.

Next Sunday is last-of-the-month, so, as is customary, we're looking for #vortex themes, so we're looking for suggestions - dig 'em out and flip 'em up later for discussion, ok?

Last Sunday saw @room2skank, (via @EmmaPrice) in the chair, dealing out Pom Poko's 2019 debut album "Birthday", which went down pretty damn well, I'd say. Thanks to Emma & Si for the pick, and for sailing the frisb over to @nessiest, who's here with tonight's intro...

"My initial pick for tonight was excellent shitkicking punk from my home country but unrelentingly heavy. Let me spare your collective eardrums, it didn't fit this weekend. After rummaging in my list of possibles, changing my mind again last minute for reasons, I remembered this artist. I’ve been following their career for a while, this album is new. I have not listened to it yet. Track two I know, plus a live cover of another artist who guests on this. I’ll be stunned if any of you know this. Taking a risk but delighted to find out what it’s like with all of you."

Right then, download's here, stream's below:

See you 20:00 BST (GMT+1) tonight.
