Random Old Records Podcast #94

It feels like I've listened to a hundred albums in the past month looking for inspiration, and EPISODE #94 of Random Old Records is the result of all those hours logged under the headphones and between the speakers. This is a fun one, so let's dig in!

You'll hear everything from hardcore punk classics to modern twists on punk to blissed-out pop to stomping grunge-era guitar noise to jangle to soul and everything in between. Featured artists include MDC, Poison Idea, Heather The Jerk, Toads, Christie Front Drive, Helium, Living Grateful, The Weather Station, and over a dozen more. Tell all your friends that Random Old Records is back!
