E22 Live Through This

Upon lighting the inaugural candle at Arcade 160 Studios new location in Atlanta GA, we embark on a rock 'n' roll pilgrimage back to the grunge-laden era of the '90s. Together, we savor the sonic boom of Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit," which tore through the fabric of the music scene, and pay homage to the tragically woven tapestry that is Kurt Cobain's legacy. We unwrap the rawness of "Bleach," and the decade changing songs of "Nevermind," reveling in the tracks that continue to resonate through the corridors of rock history. We look back at Hole and their album "Live Through This," released the week after Hole's frontwoman, Courtney Love's husband, Kurt, took his life. From the opening chords of "Violet" to "Doll Parts," and "Softer, Softest", it's a really good album that doesn't get the credit it deserves.

The spotlight refuses to dim as it dances over the corners of our music library where The Hoodoo Gurus' "Stone Age Romeos" stands proud at its 40th anniversary, and the timeless jangles of The Beatles' guitars on their second album still beguile listeners. McCartney's unrestrained vocals on "Long Tall Sally" and the cowbell charm of "You Can't Do That" are just appetizers in our feast of musical milestones. We then shift gears to honor the craft of Difford and Tilbrook of Squeeze as we approach their golden jubilee. Whether it's the quirky allure of "Cool for Cats", The Psychedelic Furs evolving with "Mirror Moves", or the punk revolution signaled by The Offspring's "Smash," this episode is a testament to the enduring power of anthems that have become the soundtracks of our lives. Join us for a harmonious blend of reflection and revelation in a celebration that transcends generations.
