109: XTC

Dust off your vinyls and get ready to have your mind blown, because we're talking to die-hard music nerd, comedian and radio personality, Miguel Rivas (he/him), about the biggest band you've never heard of; XTC. Learn about this Talking Heads-esque band that, due to wild and tragic circumstances, exerted a Forrest Gump level of historical influence on music without ever making it big. Plus, British class differences, the invention of gated reverb, hyper-specific cover bands, how to ruin your children's musical taste, and why you NEVER EVER EVER quit Valium cold turkey (EVER!).
