Ep. 91: This Land is STILL Your Landfill

In the spring of 2020, The Homeless Gospel Choir released an album that is a quantum leap forward, just in time for the world to shut down. In this podcast, I talk to Derek Zanetti and Matt Miller about what it means to put out an amazing album that cannot be toured on. You really should buy This Land is Your Landfill on vinyl and CD, or if physical media isn’t your thing score This Land is Your Landfill on Bandcamp. We also discuss the transition of THGC from a solo acoustic project to finally realizing Derek’s dream of being in the Pixies. Along the way, we swear some, reveal the creepy Derek and Matt mind meld, and determine once and for all that December is worse than January could be.

Episode 47: Let’s Get Physical (Media)

For this episode The One and Only Matt Miller stops by to talk about his forthcoming cassette release for his band Small Pollen entitled El Cortisone La Corazon.  For this cassette, he’s going to insert dried, pressed flowers into all 150 cassettes (for real).  Also, joining us is Derek Zanetti of (and also who is) The Homeless Gospel Choir.

During our conversation we talk about unique recording methods, the value of physical media, intimacy in music, and we do The Bottom 5 Family Feud style.

You an find Matt’s stuff on the Small Pollen Bandcamp page, and Derek’s stuff can be found at The Homeless Gospel Choir’s page with the Big Cartel.

There is swearing as usual.
