What it is, music nerds. Today on the show we have 2 new release recommendations for all you rock fans out there.

First up we discuss the new Parquet Courts album Wide Awake. It’s a jangly, uptempo indie rock record that is sure to top many year end lists.

We also talk over Irish rockers Maverick and there new album Cold Star Dancer. They’re an intriguing new group with an 80s rock sound. Hear their thoughts on trying to break into a scene largely controlled by 60 year old rock veterans.
