Two Songs One Couple PeterSam

We're back! First of all, our deepest apologies for being away for so long. We've been very busy with life, and we finally got a chance to sit down and record an episode! We reach back into the 90s for an oldie but goodie, and also a strange genre blend of breakbeat, opera and metal. Thank you so much for your patience!
Our Songs for This Week:

Smoke and Ashes by Tracy Chapman, from her 1995 album New Beginning released via Elektra Records.

Paranoid Bulldozer Italiano by Igorrr, from their 2020 album Spirituality and Distortion released via Metal Blade Records.

We return to our original format with two random songs, no special theme this time. We talk about an up and coming pop star as well as an established but relatively unknown prog metal band.

Escapism (featuring 070 Shake) by Raye, from her 2023 album My 21st Century Blues released via Human Re Sources.

1985 by Haken, from their 2016 album Affinity released via Inside Out Music.

First of all, our apologies for missing an episode in April. We suffered some loss in our family, including our dog Leela. 

In this episode we pay tribute to our puppers, and pick two songs that remind us of her. We barely talk about our songs, and we just ended up talking about our pups the majority of the time.

The release date of this episode is also no coincidence, as it would have been her 16th birthday. Rest in peace Leela, we love you and miss you every day!

Our Songs for This Week:

A Life Embossed by Protest the Hero, from their 2013 self-released album Volition.

Run the World (Girls) by Beyoncé, from her 2011 album 4 released via Columbia Records.

And we're back!  In this episode, we pick songs that we think the other will absolutely hate. One of us is way more successful than the other, bet you can't guess! Thank you for your patience while we were away, and moving forward we will be releasing episodes less frequently. We're thinking once a month at this point. Thank you for sticking with us!

Our songs for this week:

Spit it Out by Pharmakon, from her 2019 album Devour released via Sacred Bones Records.

Out in the Middle by Zac Brown Band, from their 2022 (Deluxe Edition, original album released in 2021) album The Comeback released via Home Grown Music and Warner Music Nashville.

Happy New Year friends! What a crazy year it's been.  This year we have tried something with a theme for almost every episode. It's been an absolute blast picking our songs for these themes, and we've even learned a thing or two.

We can't wait to see what 2023 has to bring. Honestly, it's been tough to keep up a regular schedule these days, so we may be reducing the amount of episodes we release. We don't plan on going away though! We'll take a short break for the month of January, and we'll be back in February!

Thank you so much to all of our supporters. We don't say it nearly enough, and we apologize for that. We are so grateful for every listen! Here's to a wonderful and prosperous 2023!
