    Pancake Valentines February Spectacular!

    Join Andi and Jamie as they tear through a bunch of new and classic tracks both in and out of the genre that you’re used to hearing from them. They got Postal Service, they got Off With Their Heads, they even got Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds. It’s a crazy dance party for the ears. And that’s not all. Sour Grapes goes deeper, asking questions about the issues plaguing society at the moment such as: Will HMVs imminent closure mark an upturn in business for independent record stores? Who is this Flag band and why should we care? Has Community lost its heart without Dan Harmon? These will be answered, along with many more in this super special episode of Sour Grapes. Track listing: 1. The Murderburgers - Unemployment, Here I Come Again 2. Off With Their Heads - Nightlife 3. The Postal Service - Tattered Line of String 4. Texas is the Reason - The Magic Bullet Theory 5. Desaparecidos - Anonymous 6. Broadway Calls - Lucky Lighter 7. The Lillingtons - I Saw The Apeman 8. Well Wisher - Fast Past Memory Lame: Rites of Spring - Hain’s Point 10. Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Jubilee Street

    2012: A Year in Punx

    On New Years Eve 2012, Andi and Jamie sat down in the front room of Sour Grapes Hotel to discuss the year gone by. Over a few light sherries, they talked for way too long about the highs and lows of a year that just sorta came and went. Join them as they journey through movies, games, live shows, and much more besides. It's like a big wordy pie filled with 2012 and bad puns. Between all of our riveting gab, we took some time to reflect on the music of the year with highlights from some of our favourite 2012 releases and say goodbye to some of the bands we have lost along the way. Apologies I Have None - 60 Miles Japandroids - Younger Us Astpai - Becoming Strangers Everyone Everywhere - Tiny Town Crystal Castles - Insulin Hammers - Systole Wooderson - Deluxe Dead Milkmen - Dark Clouds Gather Over Middlemarch Broadcaster - Anything You Never Heard Cursive - Drunken Birds Converge - Sadness Comes Home One Win Choice - Movements Sit back, relax and let our loose lips welcome in 2013 with you.

    9. FREERADIOPODCAST

    Aaaaand we're back. In an attempt to bring structure to our meandering rants about geeky crap and punk rock, we've decided to introduce a modicum of structure in the way of themes and regular features. This week, we focused on pay what you want/legally free labels Quote Unquote and Kill Your Own, so be sure to check both those sites out for some lovely free music. Also, we discuss why Emogame 2 is the greatest game ever, Pacific Rim and Jamie's deep love of Crass. As an addendum, the out takes for this show were far funnier than anything we left in. We'll try harder next time, I promise. Playlist: 1. Cold Ones- Dead End Job 2. Bomb The Music Industry- Even Winning Feels Bad 3. Bangers- The Funny Side Spotlight: 4. Horace Pinker- Into The After 5. Sauna Youth- Big Bobbles 6. Sanawon- Drifting 7. Caves- Time And Time Again 8. Laura Stevenson And The Cans- Landslide Song/The Dig 9. Bonestorm- Expire 10. Shinobu- Teachers Get Tired Memory Lame: 11. Crass- Big Man, Big M.A.N 12. O Pioneers!!!- You Know That Part In Superman III...

    Episode 8: The Podcast Knights Return

    After another lengthy gap (we’re getting really good at them now), Sour Grapes returns in an action-packed extravaganza of blood and righteous violence. Will Jamie find favourite hat? Will Andi remember which songs he chose to play this week? All this and more in this episode of Sour Grapes! In all seriousness though, we’ve tried to take a little bit of a different direction with this one. That is why you will find within lengthy discussions about the best Batman story arc, who our favourite voices actors are, and some kind of quantum singularity where everything is composed of Spinal Tap quotes. The music is still very much the main focus, but we’re trying to branch out a little into other things we can babble on incessantly about. Enjoy! Playlist: 1. The Lawrence Arms - Spit Shining Shit 2. Cursive - The Great Decay 3. The Menzingers - Gates 4. Bomb The Music Industry - Congratulations, John On Joining Every Time I Die 5. Chixdiggit - Chupacabra 6. The Groovie Ghoulies - Chupacabra 7. Crucial Dudes - Small, Bent and Ugly 8. Adolescents - Losing Battle 9. Bones Brigade - Let’s Go Get Cokes 10. Apologies, I Have None - The 26 11. Tilt - Partial Birth 12. Neil Perry - Igor, My Girlfriend Dumped Me, Let’s Write Sad Songs

    Episode 7: Shadow Bangers From A Shadowy Podcast

    So after nearly a month of deafness, idleness, deadlines and vomiting, we’re back with a new episode, and it’s back to business as usual, except the songs are songsier, the tangents are far more long and rambling, and it ends in a Mexican standoff. One or more of the previous statements may be a lie. Try to guess which one. So yeah, Sour Grapes 7 GO! Playlist: 1. Lightyear- That’s The Way That It Goes, Big Nose 2. Hot Cross- Exits And Trails 3. Discount- Am I Missing Something 4. Captain, We’re Sinking- Crushed By Milwaukee’s Best 5. Aspiga- Laughing This Off 6. Good Clean Fun- Punk Rock Love 7. Stuntface- Time To Fly 8. Army Of Flying Robots- The Goths Brought Revels And I Felt Cheated 9. Brat Pack- Hate The Neighbours 10. Wooderson- Mint Condition

    6. Tinned Podcasts and Diamond Rings

    This week is a pre-ManchFESTer special, so we thought we’d invite organiser Kieran Kelly around to discuss the festival, play some songs from the bands involved and hopefully start some some beef. And that’s exactly what happened. Featuring cuts from both the new Apologies, I Have None and Above Them records, alongside classics from ONSIND, Calvinball, and Sam Russo. It’s a UK punk extravaganza! Enjoy.

    Episode 5: Fat Podcasts For Fat People

    In keeping with episode three’s trawl through teenage punk rock nostalgia, this week’s episode is dedicated to Fat Wreck Chords featuring the likes of NoFx, The Lawrence Arms, Chixdiggit, Nerf Herder and a whole host of other goodness. We realise that most of these songs were released before 2005, so we’ll make up for it next week with loads of shiny new music. Some of it might even be British. Who knows. Once again direct all feedback to sourgrapespodcast@hotmail.co.uk

    Episode 4 Bad Podcast, Everyone’s Fault

    Well, after two weeks of buggering about, we are back. I know, I know hold your applause until the end. This week we learn the value of planning ahead, as we wade through topics of conversation as diverse as what’s on Punknews this week and what we did last week. But wait, there’s more, in the form of ten nuggets of musical goodness amidst a sea of conversational b******t. But seriously, that cat gif was funny. Tune in next week for a more structured episode, if that’s your thing, and remember that we love feedback, which should be directed to sourgrapespodcast@hotmail.co.uk Playlist: 1. The Ergs- Aja 2. Broadcaster- Vacation Days 3. The Dauntless Elite- Saliva 4. The Arrogant Sons Of Bitches- RSTLNE 5. Boilermaker- Sunset Ridge 6. The Mr.T Experience- Future Ain’t What It Used To Be 7. The Murderburgers- Eh? Huh? Wha? 8. Small Brown Bike- Safe In Sound 9. Crocus- This Is Pain 10. Astpai- On Your Own

    Episode 3: The "Gone With The Wind" Of Punk Rock Podcasts

    So today we were watching a Secret Weapons Of Kung Fu Volume 1, and it occurred to us that Kung Fu used to be a rad label, and being the arrogant bastards we are, a tribute podcast seemed only fitting. Yes it is only our third episode. Shut up. So, for the next hour and twenty minutes, feel free to lose yourself in our musical adolescence, with some great tracks from the likes of Ozma, The Ataris, Audio Karate and The Vandals, and a terrible (in hindsight) song from Antifreeze. Apologies for the rambling, but we find ourselves hilarious and so should you. As always, any feedback should be sent to sourgrapespodcast@hotmail.co.uk and likes on Facebook are always appreciated. Go on, you know you want to.

    My Bedroom Is Like For Podcasts, Part II

    So here we are with the second episode of Sour Grapes, and it’s pretty much more of the same. We’ve got music from Cheeky, Cheap Girls, Crimpshrine, and some other bands whose names don’t start with the letter ‘c’, and plenty of those rambling conversations that are bound to offend someone if we try hard enough. We’d like to say a huge thankyou to the 101 people who’ve downloaded the first podcast so far, and remember if you want to send us stuff to review, give us constructive criticism or just tell us that we’re a huge disappointment, the address is sourgrapespodcast@hotmail.co.uk

    Episode 1: The Podcast That Only Eats Hippies

    So, after spending far longer than is reasonable trying to come up with a name for the bloody thing, here is the first episode of the Sour Grapes podcast, a weekly nugget of punk rock goodness and mindless chit-chat that will hopefully provide some kind of mild amusement. There’s no real theme here, just awesome bands that we want to share with you, and us entertaining the misguided notion that our in-joke and reference riddled conversations are worth your time. In all seriousness though, it’s mostly about the music, so if you’ve got a band you want to hear played, or want to tell us that we sound like a couple of dorks, drop us a line at sourgrapespodcast@hotmail.co.uk. Tune in next week for a much better episode. For now though, courage.
