The Interview Show with TOPS #190

Like fellow indie music weirdo Ariel Pink, Montreal's TOPS get a lot of credit for subverting pop music. TOPS is also a very well-connected band at the centre of the flourishing Montreal indie scene with music pals like singer-songwriter Sean Nicholas Savage and rapper Cadence Weapon. In fact, TOPS bestie and indie superstar Mac DeMarco even flashed his testicles in the TOPS video for "Way to be Loved." I wanted to do the interview in the tour van, but TOPS members Jane Penny (vocals), Jenny Roberts (bass) and David Carriere (guitar) were afraid I couldn't handle the intense smells inside. What strange odors were inside the TOPS tour van? How does it feel when one of your friends flashes his nuts in your music video? What does "Viva Las Vegas" have to do with any of this? If you listen, you'll find out all this and more! Tracks played on the show... 1) TOPS, Picture You Staring (2014) "Outside" 2) TOPS, Picture You Staring (2014) "Way to be Loved" 3) TOPS, Tender Opposites (2012) "Evening" 4) TOPS, Picture You Staring (2014) "Change of Heart" ALL songs CANCON
