    Hi there, sorry for the week off! It'll all get explained, but Trve. Cvlt. Pop! has returned, good news. On this week's show, Gaz is still away, resting up, so our good buddy Merlin Alderslade joins us to talk about the year in dance, EDM and electronic music.

    Ep.159: Jimi from Bangers & Mosh Top 5 Musical Atrocities

    Hey there, welcome to another episode of Trve. Cvlt. Pop! a bloody music podcast so it is! On this weeks episode, we're joined by our good mate Jimi from the excellent Bangers & Mosh podcast to give us a redacted, list of 5 things that would make his A-Z of Atrocities. Yup, we're going neggy again! From poor sound at venues, established bands not boosting new artists, s****y AI and the death of the album, he gives it both barrels. There's also live reports from Reef & Kerbdog's double header, and we are unquestionably the only podcast to review boyband royalty Five and upcoming black metallers Spectral Wound on the same show. So that's good.
