It was fun getting talk with @stephenpdmorris about all things New Order with a focus on 'Brotherhood' but we covered a lot of ground.
We talked to @neworder's Stephen Morris about the new 'Brotherhood' Definitive Edition, their music videos, what's next for the band, and more

@yasisalek @Happy_Mondays @thestoneroses @estellecostanza Before this dropped, I thought "they'd better talk about the WFL video" and they did, though I think a full hour could've been devoted to it. Still amazing, can't believe any station aired it ever.

I reviewed the new Cure album (spoiler alert: it's very good)
Review: The Cure's 'Songs of a Lost World' is a doomy, gloomy near-perfect return to form

No, but close: it's JM from the back cover of his '80s goth band Falling Man's one album

Dear labels and artists who use DISCO for promos, please change the MP3 bitrate settings to 320k, it's set to a default of 160k and i'm sure no artist wants their music heard like that

@harvilla i hope you playing snippets of other '00s nu wave bands at the start doesn't preclude them getting their own episodes
