Come one, come all, to this tragic affair, and subscribe here for the best music show in your podcast library. Hosted by Blake Murphy and Jake Goldsbie, Columbia House Party is your home for Riots and Black Parades, Cork Trees and Significant Others. At times it will showcase the very finest the music industry had to offer, often around the pop-punk and emo boom of the early-to-mid 2000s. At its worst, it will indulge in those forgotten records we all have lurking in our collection. All the while, it promises to provide the information, entertainment and self-deprecation you’ve come to expect from two of Toronto’s favourites. Welcome to our living mixtape.

Say Anything Attack the Scene
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive into Say Anything’s 2004 pop-punk classic …Is a Real Boy (and, technically, their 2006 build-on …Was a Real Boy). It’s an album that stands out from its own scene upon review, somewhat ironically given the album’s heavy criticism of the scene itself. Find out more about the cost and benefit of Max Bemis’ sprawling creativity and perfectionism over the band’s life, how the hosts – and Bemis himself – deal with some of the less flattering lyrical content 16 years later, and how Say Anything produced the unlikeliest of emo love songs on this week’s podcast.

Dashboard Confessional: MSN Status Hall of Fame
Please open your sad teen textbooks to Page 1.

Find out more about Chris Carrabba’s transition from Further Seems Forever to Dashboard Confessional, what we know – and don’t know – about what went into his painful songwriting, and why one host thinks Dashboard holds up better than a lot of the early-2000s scene on this week’s podcast.

Watch Out! An Album Built on the Road (ft. Sam Sutherland)
Watch Out! In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Sam Sutherland (@SamSthrlnd) of the blink-155 podcast to talk about…not blink-182, surprisingly. Instead, the trio takes a deep look at alexisonfire’s sophomore 2004 album Watch Out! Sam’s choice of album surprised, but explained through the lens of that moment in Canadian music history, it was the right choice. Find out more about Sam’s encyclopaedic knowledge of the early-2000s Canadian punk scene, Dallas Green’s resume as an all-around good guy, and how alexisonfire broke through despite not feeling like a CanCon success story on paper on this week’s podcast.
