    RIP Bob Weir ft. special guest Lee Ranaldo (Sonic Youth) + New Mitski, Zach Bryan & more

    On this episode of BV Weekly, Dave and Andrew are joined by special guest, Sonic Youth member, and lifelong Grateful Dead fan Lee Ranaldo to reflect on the death of Bob Weir. Lee's been following the Dead since the early '70s, he was at the legendary Cornell '77 show, and he had a lot to say about the impact left by the Grateful Dead and Bob Weir specifically. While he was here, Lee also told us why Geese are "the new band [he's] most interested in right now," he chatted with us about the just-announced Kim Gordon album, and he shed some light on Sonic Youth's recent 2026 teaser and upcoming plans for his own solo career. The conversation with Lee comes in at the 27:00 mark, and before that, we talk about the Golden Globes (00:30), the new Zach Bryan album and Zach preemptively reacting to accusations that it's "overproduced" (06:30), Mitski's highly anticipated album announcement (17:41), and more. We also chat about even more new music and music news after Lee says goodbye (01:12:17).   Email bvweekly@gmail.com with any feedback or questions!

    2025 Album Year-End Lists: 5 Surprises & Takeaways

    It's the first week of December, and that means almost every major 'best albums of the year' list is officially out. On this week's episode of BV Weekly, Dave and Andrew go through 5 takeaways, discoveries, and surprises of the major lists we've seen so far. We discuss Pitchfork's very niche #1 album of the year (11:40), the multiple-lists-dominating Gelli Haha (30:13), the double whammy of Geese's new album and singer Cameron Winter's 2024 solo album (37:11), the representation (or lack thereof) of heavy music on this year's major lists (47:46), and some glaring/interesting omissions (58:49). Also in this episode, we talk new music from redveil, Tigers Jaw, Ratboys, and more, and share some news about Björk, Rosalía, FKA twigs, The 1975, and more.
