412 - folklore (feat. Joseph Lewis)

Paul and Arlo are doin' good, they're on some new shit: actually talking at length about music! A/V director and founding Gobbler Joseph Lewis joins the boys to rave about Taylor Swift's newest (and best) album, Folklore. The gang discusses how Folklore offers a more mature and introspective look at Swift's pop star persona, how the collaboration with The National's Aaron Dessner enhances her sonic palette, the drama of the Teenage Love Trilogy, the beautiful video for "cardigan," and more.   Next: slippin' and slidin' with Class Action Park.   BONUS MUSIC RECOMMENDATIONS: Joe Manic by Halsey Punisher by Phoebe Bridger Gaslighter by The Chicks Tourist Season by Miel The New Abnormal by The Strokes Run-On Death Sentence by Alex Jonestown Massacre     Arlo Every Bad by Porridge Radio Rough and Rowdy Ways by Bob Dylan Song for Our Daughter by Laura Marling Once I Was an Eagle by Laura Marling Fetch the Bolt Cutters by Fiona Apple      Paul   Louie 99 by Pet Rocks and Fake Flowers Imploding the Mirage by The Killers Twelfth by Old 97's   THE BREAKDOWN Total Run Time: 02:46:30 00:01:00  -  Intro / Banter 00:07:14  -  Our histories with Taylor Swift 00:28:38  -  Track-by-track review of folklore 02:31:28  -  Other new music recommendations 02:42:50  -  Outro / Next THE MUSIC "the 1" by Taylor Swift, folklore (2020) "cardigan" by Taylor Swift, folklore (2020) "exile" by Taylor Swift, folklore (2020) "seven" by Taylor Swift, folkky8lore (2020) "august" by Taylor Swift, folklore (2020) "illicit affairs" by Taylor Swift, folklore (2020) "betty" by Taylor Swift, folklore (2020) "hoax" by Taylor Swift, folklore (2020) THE LINKS   "Who Is Rebekah Harkness, Star of Taylor Swift's 'The Last Great American Dynasty'?" by Brenna Ehrlich, Rolling Stone "Betty" Pop Punk Cover
