Whack or Slaps Podcast

Welcome to Whack or Slaps, where we look back into the annals of 2000s indie music to determine if an album, or band, or even entire musical movement was actually good or just a product of the hype machine of its time. Like all great podcasts this is a direct spinoff of an unhinged and sketchy group text, that simply refuses to die.
