Nasty Garage Punk with a Nastier Drug Problem | Ep. 243: Jay Reatard

This week we're discussing every album by Jay Reatard. Before his untimely death due to an overdose in 2010, Jay Reatard (not his birth name, believe it or not) made his name playing a distinct but surprisingly catchy brand of garage rock-infused punk. He started with The Reatards and then Lost Sounds before going solo. Maybe his style isn't for everyone, but dammit if these aren't some of the most fun songs ever written.   Intro/Artist Overview 00:00 Blood Visions 5:24 Singles 06-07 15:11 Matador Singles 08 22:33 Watch Me Fall 28:41 What happened next? 35:56 Outro 40:08   ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   Join the Patreon, it rules: https://www.patreon.com/everyalbumever   Mike's music: Pander Monkey on Bandcamp, Spotify, Apple,   Mike on Instagram @pandermonkey Tom on Instagram @tomosmansounds   Tom Osman's stuff: Music on Spotify, Apple, Website Podcast on Spotify, YouTube     ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   Mike's Picks: Blood Visions (2006) -- Best Album, Personal Favorite Matador Singles 08 (2008) -- Worst Album, Least Favorite   Albums discussed this episode...
