Ep 20 - Album Club - Modern Classics

We usually pick a (relatively) new album release to focus on but this month we changed things up. The start of the year is a funny time for album releases and 2022 was no different. We decided that rather than spend a month and a podcast talking about something that we weren't too passionate about, we'd take a different path.  This month is the first TINH 'Album Club'. The format for this podcast is simple. The four of us all (randomly) chose  someone from the Team-TINH to pick an album for. The album should be from the past 10 (ish) years and should represent something special that the recipient might have missed. A modern classic perhaps.This episode was loads of fun to make. There's loads of agreement, a little bit of niggle, a fair chunk of nerdery ... something for everyone. The following are the albums that we discussed, who chose them, who they were chosen for and some links that take you to some of the things that popped up in the discussion.First-up - Joey chose Deerhunter's 2010 'Halcyon Digest' for Guy;You can listen to the album here on Spotify... or catch it on YouTube hereThe ethereal video for Helicopter can be watched here... or watch them perform the poptastic 'Memory Boy' here Next-up - Nolan chose Kanye West's 2016 'Life of Pablo' for David (what could go wrong?);You can listen to the album here on Spotify... or catch it on YouTube hereNolan highly recommends NORE's podcast interview with Kanye here ...... and if 2.5hrs of Kanye wasn't enough here's part 2Next-up - David chose Wye Oak's 2011 'Civilian' for Joey;You can listen to the album here on Spotify... or catch it on YouTube hereWatch a live NPR Tiny Desk performance of 'Civilian' hereFinally - Guy chose Enny's 2021's 'Under 25' for Nolan;You can listen to the album here on Spotify... or catch it on YouTube hereWatch the video to 'I want' here... and the video for 'Peng Black Girls' hereNext Up Episode #21 will see us dive deep into all 20 of the tracks on Big Thief's double album release 'Dragon New Mountain I Believe in You'.
