    Outside The Lines: The Elusive Sound of Majesty Crush

    Outside The Lines: The Elusive Sound of Majesty Crush

    We chat about the short-lived and underrated indie band Majesty Crush. With lead singer David Stroughter's neurotic vocal delivery and a sound that didn't fit neatly within the lines of the 90s rock soundscape, Majesty Crush defied categorization in their brief but spectacular career. Their music is being celebrated in the release of Butterflies Don't Go Away, a compilation record featuring all tracks from their Love 15 debut record as well as their handful of EPs that followed. Join as we dive into one of the most underrated shoegaze acts of the 90s.

    Majesty Crush - Brand

    Majesty Crush - Cicciolina

    Majesty Crush - Horse

    Mac Glocky - Down With The Sickness (Disturbed Cover in the style of Nirvana)

    The Radiohead of Metal: Deftone's Around The Fur

    The Radiohead of Metal: Deftone's Around The Fur

    Eager to ditch the nu-metal label, Deftones headed into the studio with a goal to separate themselves from the pack on their second album Around the Fur. This ambition saw the group embrace their non-metal influences, leaning on the cerebral and ethereal qualities of bands like Depeche Mode. This combined with Chino Moreno's unusual vocals gave Around the Fur it's signature loud-soft dynamic, perhaps earning the band it's reputation as "the metal band it's okay for non-metal fans to like."
    Tracklist

    Deftones - My Own Summer (Shove It)

    Deftones - Lhabia

    Deftones - Mascara

    Deftones - Dai the Flu

    Deftones - Damone

    Deftones - Be Quiet and Drive (Far Away)

    Whatcha Heard: The Heaven and Hell Edition

    Whatcha Heard: The Heaven and Hell Edition

    Look, we'll be the first ones to admit it: we listen to a lot of shoegaze and dream pop on this podcast. And you'll get plenty of that on this episode. But you'll also get children's songs written by a beloved 90s alt-rocker, an aggressive blues-harmonica, and some epic 70s jazz-fusion from a group of musicians that used to pal around with Miles Davis. Only on No Filler will you experience that level of musical whiplash! Tune in for our monthly mixtape episode for January.

Bromance

Love hearing the brothers talk about music that means something to them. Entertaining banter that only a true familial bond could produce. These bros are the real deal

IForgotToPutInTheCrystals ,

Unimpressive

I'm sorry to say these guys aren't very impressive. They seem to spend the whole podcast trying to apply genre labels to music that doesn't need such labels. And the band is called Coc-TOE Twins (not Coc-TAW).

Natenate101 ,

Great album selections

What other podcast is gonna cover The Mercury Program's 'A Data Learn Language'? Not to mention the Radiohead coverage. Good stuff fellas, keep it up.
