Episodes

  1. S4 Ep6: AYP 46: Railing Against Railings

    Good day, hearty listeners! Once again Mike, Emily, and John return to King Street, and while discussing the Area 51 raid (REMINDER: this was recorded in July 2019) and the first album Emily ever acquired, the tangents really start stacking up. See if you can count how many times we digress, then...

  2. S4 Ep5: AYP 45: "Naked! WITH SCISSORS!"

    Greetings to you all! We (Mike, John, and Emily) continue unabated with a fresh dip into Rolling Stone's Top 100 albums - we can't remember what the last one we did was (Bob Dylan, possibly?), but decided that none of us had listened to a Stevie Wonder album. Cue us listening to a Stevie Wonder...

  3. S4 Ep4: AYP 44: Vet's Glove & Broom Shaft

    We return! It's another spin of the nonsense wheel with Mike, John, and Emily, as we run a full emotional gamut of cattle interference news, sublime/bonkers cover versions we love, and savage analyses of rock creeps. How much of this can you take?! We sure hope it's 33 minutes' worth. #Podcast...

  4. S4 Ep3: AYP 43: Johnny Marr's Mini-Dress

    Yes, we're back once again, and a new face joins the AYP family this week, in the form of Staffordshire Poet Laureate 2017-2019, WordCraft co-founder, AND self-professed wordy half of Rose&Cloud: Emily Rose Galvin! Recorded in July 2019, John* and Mike take the opportunity of having somebody with...

  5. S4 Ep2: AYP 42: "READ THE LYRICS"

    TWO EPISODES IN A DAY?! We really want you to get a flavour of the Autophonography vibes, so that if you want to take part in an AYP recording, you'll be prepped. As mentioned previously, we recorded these before 'AYP Festival Fest 2018 (Cancelled)' (Thanks, Barry) and then didn't upload them…

    more
  6. S4 Ep1: AYP 41: "Comedically playing with your innards"

    WE'RE BACK. After the excitement of 'AYP Festival Fest 2018 (Cancelled)', we needed a rest, so we had one, and then realised that we had recorded a couple of episodes prior to 'AYPFF2019(C)' which John utterly failed to upload (John failing to upload things is going to crop up again next week)....

  7. S3 Ep4: AYP 40: "I created Drone"

    Apologies in advance for the last two thirds of this week's episode, as our time ran out in the back room of The Greyhound, and we were forced to de-camp to John's house, where there was nowhere to set our mics, so we were holding them. This has resulted in a degree of odd noises from us holding...

  8. S3 Ep3: AYP 39: "Driving you to dogging sites"

    We start this week with a complete absence of control, some of which is clawed back for the middle section, and gleefully abandoned again for the last five minutes. As ever, we are organising another day's entertainment for Festival Fest 2018 (Working Title) (Cancelled), which will feature Gordon...

  9. S3 Ep2: AYP 38: "Misanthropop"

    It's PART TWO of Festival Fest 2018! Picking up from last week's band-off, curating a fictitious festival that not only doesn't exist but also won't happen, our plucky young pillocks have more acts to consider letting down when it gets cancelled. THIS WEEK: Mike recommends Chibi Tech, Gordon has…

    more
  10. S3 Ep1: AYP 37: "All of that, and less besides."

    Festival Fest 2018 is HERE, in the Year of Our Lord 2019. We apologise for the delay, having recorded these next four episodes in June last year, and the Greyhound pub in Hartshill. In the wake of Safe As Milk Festival's cancellation in 2017, we elected to meet up and make our OWN damn festival!...

  11. AYP 36: "Peripheral Misery Porn"

    Season 2.5, Episode 13. Oh, how bittersweet it is to be uploading this episode. At the time of recording, Safe As Milk Festival hadn't been cancelled, and we were eagerly looking forward to three days in Prestatyn Pontins. As it stands, the festival's off, and there's a hint of abandon in…

    more
  12. AYP 35: "Indulging your bedroom hobby..."

    Season 2.5, Episode 12. SPOT THE BURP! There is a burp hidden on this week's Safe As Milk preview episode, so if you can find it, comment on the All Yesterday's Parties Facebook page, or tweet us at @ayppodcast with the precise minute at second of the burp! This week, our indomitable heroes…

    more
  13. AYP 34: [CLAP] "Feel better?"

    Season 2.5, Episode 11. ANOTHER strangely concise Safe As Milk-themed episode of AYP, we hope you don't get too used to this. This week, John, Mike, Matt, and Gordon (recording once again at King Street Studios) discuss Richard Dawson, Demdike Stare, Forest Swords, and Guttersnipe. Expect some...

  14. AYP 33: "Stay out of Dickreach!"

    Season 2.5, Episode 10. The Safe As Milk Alliance returns, continuing to plough into the 2nd wave of artist announcements like a rugby scrum that, bleeding profusely and covered in mud & shit, somehow found itself in a shopping centre, barreling towards the Pret with no intention of slowing down…

    more
  15. AYP 32: "A dog in the mouth"

    Season 2.5, Episode 9. Just when you thought we'd done the gamut of acts at Safe As Milk Festival 2017, they go and announce another 17 acts! John, Mike, Matt and Gordon reconvene to start anew, this week discussing FOUR (not the usual three) artists, in the shape of Asiq Nargile, Basic House,...

  16. AYP 31: "THIS MACHINE KILLS GORDON'S COMPUTER"

    Season 2.5, Episode 8. The Safe As Milkery continues, as John & Mike, ably (more or less) assisted by Matt & Gordon, get stuck into the last three of the first glut of acts announced for the billing. This week, it's Omar Souleyman, This Is Not This Heat, and Ulver. All Yesterday's Parties…

    more
  17. AYP 30: "Who's a good boy?"

    Season 2.5, Episode 7. Another week, another Safe As Milk Fest love-fest. This week, John, Mike, Matt & Gordon take a preliminary stumble through another alphabetical stage of the billing, this week featuring Princess Nokia, The Residents, and Michael Rother. It's amazing that they manage it this...

  18. AYP 29: "I'm not going to listen to any of this."

    Season 2.5, Episode 6. John and Mike are rejoined by Matt and Gordon to discuss three more acts performing at the inaugural Safe As Milk festival in April 2017. This week, Moor Mother, Nurse With Wound, and OOIOO get the All Yesterday's Parties treatment, but not before Mike drops a ridicularious...

  19. AYP 28: "Was it a picture of a koala?"

    Season 2.5, Episode 5. More festival goodness, this time with special, not to mention familiar, guests! Featuring Matt Tyrer and Gordon Kochane, whom you will remember from our very first episode back at the final All Tomorrow's Parties, way back when. This week, Matt & Gordon join John & Mike at...

  20. AYP 27: "Exactly the kind of sound that would ruin a Grouper concert."

    Season 2.5, Episode 4. We're still running up to Safe As Milk Festival at Pontins in Prestatyn (why, is it coming out?), and in this edition, Mike & John are burying their heads in Mark Ernestus' Ndagga Rhythm Force, GAIKA, and, as you may have gleaned from the episode title, Grouper. Prepare for...

  21. AYP 26: "The results are more dad-dancing than Travolta..."

    Season 2.5, Episode 3. The third wander through Safe As Milk's announced acts, with John & Mike's insights (such as they are) into Shirley Collins, Carla Dal Forno, and Dopplereffekt, and there is a shock revelation about Mike's private habits. There also comes some AI-based Christmas song whimsy...

  22. AYP 25: "Next day, the streets are clogged with yoghurt."

    Season 2.5, Episode 2. Our between-season season continues apace, as John & Mike listen to another three artists due to appear at Safe As Milk festival. This week, it's down to Islam Chipsy & EEK, Chrome, and Circle. Will John get through any of the artist bios without stumbling over difficult...

  23. AYP 24: "France's Baby Chairs..."

    The Road To Safe As Milk, Season 2.5! We're taking a significant enough divergence from our regular format to warrant calling this a between-season season, and this is a season of pure research in the run-up to our Anniversary Episode, which will be recorded at the Safe As Milk Festival! Held in...

  24. AYP 23: "I might take off all of me clothes!"

    Season 2, BONUS EPISODE. To round off the season arc of post-millennial top picks, Mike did a bit of research and discovered that clash magazine did a top 100 Albums of the ten years it had been in print, and number one was Kanye West's 'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy', so in full enterprising...

  25. AYP 22: "I don't want no bum gravy with MY pie, thank you Mother!"

    Season 2, Episode 12. John & Mike present their final choices for post-millennial albums worthy of inclusion into a Top 100 Albums Of All Time (the most succinct way we've been able to phrase it since we started, tbh). John's choice of "albewm" is Janelle Monae's 'The Archandroid', while Mike...

  26. AYP 21: "Kicking conkers up a dog."

    Has it really only been a week? Well, Mike and John return to drop more post-millennial pop pickings on your ass (sorry to those of you not in possession of a donkey). This week, Mike provides the Lykke Li, while John provides the Bon Iver, pausing along the way to muse upon pronunciation, BUT…

    more
  27. AYP 20: "That's a pantomime that is NOT gonna get made..."

    Season 2, Episode 10. Hello! You came back! How very novel of you. This week continues our foray into post-millennial top albums, with Mike giving us Fuck Buttons' 'Street Horrsing' and John doling out 'Night On My Side' by Gemma Hayes, but not before the subject of AI makes a welcome return to...

  28. AYP 19: "I'm not talking through a hymen."

    Season 2, Episode 9. Gary wilcox has managed to escape the building, and so our two brave boys must once again duke it out alone, resorting to their usual tricks of fancy beers, making niche Stewart Lee references, and talking about post-millennial albums that were sorely overlooked by Rolling...

  29. AYP 18: "I've never seen a heart transplant performed with a drill before."

    Season 2, Episode 8. It's here - the last of our triptych of 'The Wilcox Saga'! This week, we probe Gary Wilcox to find out what musicians comprise 'Early Snow', the name for his Fantasy Five-Piece Band. Prior to this, we host a special Q&A session, which involves Mike & John playing Surgeon...

  30. AYP 17: "Can you pull on it a bit?"

    Season 2, Episode 7. It's time to discuss 'Bands What We Have Loved And Left Behind' again, this time with Special Guest Gary Wilcox discusses his love of Canadian folk-pop-rocksters Barenaked Ladies, a band also beloved by John. As the conversation careens hither & yon, they cover classic UK...

  31. AYP 16: "Is It Grotbags?"

    Season 2, Episode 6. Prepare to dance around your living room and chant like a cretin, before finally opening the door to reveal ALL YESTERDAY'S PARTIES' FIRST EVER SPECIAL GUEST! We welcomed Don't Call Me Ishmael's/Moorlands Radio's very own Gary Wilcox into AYPHQ for what will, in about three...

  32. AYP 15: "From Offa's Dyke (Stop It!)"

    Season 2, Episode 5. Remember last week, when our trusty twosome told you of their fatigue for what populates 'Top 100 Albums' lists? Well, one week on, guess what? That still stands! John and Mike give you the first of their Post-Millennial Albums that they feel are worthy of inclusion in any...

  33. AYP 14: "METABASTARD!"

    Series 2, Episode 4. As you may remember from last series, the Rolling Stone Top 100 managed to break John & Mike when they listened to Van Morrison, and their jaded eyes scoured various Top 100 album lists, only to find that they either contained no albums pre-2000, too much Radiohead, or...

  34. AYP 13: "The Grimmest Hoopla..."

    Another week, another podcast, another look at some musicians we love. This week, our heroes look back at artists who once lit their fires - fires which have since extinguished ever-so-slightly. John reminisces about his love of Crowded House (the band who inspired him), while Mike blows the dust...

  35. AYP 12: "Contains Mild Satanic Peril"

    Season 2, Episode 2. The ball is well and truly rolling on our second series of podcasts, as John and Mike share the albums they first stumped up the cold, hard cash for as children. If you were once entranced by by the musings of Crash Test Dummies, or the prog-metal witterings of Iron Maiden,...

  36. AYP 11: "I CAN'T FIND THE NIPPLES!"

    Season 2, Episode 1. John and Mike return after a heady two weeks off (frantic, in some cases) and are ready once again to trade albums, The Dø's 'Both Ways Open Jaws' and 'NEU!' by NEU! (beware when searching for this album on Spotify, warns John). NONE of this will come before the illustrious…

    more
  37. AYP 10: "Mood-Killing Pig Run-Off"

    There's a fire between us, listeners, and a markedly different one, compared to the fire that exists between AYP and Babylon Zoo's debut album, 'the Boy With The X-Ray Eyes'. Mike decided it would be interesting to listen to an album by a certified one-hit wonder and, even now, it's hard to tell…

    more
  38. AYP 9: "The Former Connollies"

    Hello! It's another action packed episode as Mike and... er, the other one, have a pre-emptive natter about Pokemon Go (as is the way with news this year, in the week and a bit since recording this, it was released in the UK and all hell broke loose), and go on to discuss Bob Dylan's 'Blood On…

    more
  39. AYP 8: "Singing Between Extrusions"

    Greetings once again, dear listeners. In a move intended to soften our often-harsh bashing of Van Morrison, we listened to another record from the Rolling Stone Top 100 Albums list, 'Astral Weeks'. It's safe to say we weren't prepared for this, all we will say is that we tried, but not before...

  40. AYP 7: Early Daze 2

    "Like a stumpy John Travolta!" Welcome back to All Yesterday's Parties, where it's all about Mike introducing John to Erase Errata's debut album 'Other Animals', but not before Mike sets a quiz for John, who manages to assert his (incorrect) score so confidently that it goes unchallenged until…

    more
  41. AYP 6: Rolling Stone Top 100 1

    Get some money in yer jazz meter, as Mike and John take a virgin look at Miles Davis' 'Kind Of Blue' album. Mike not long ago discovered that he had not listened to even a quarter of the albums in the Rolling Stone Top 100 list, and it transpired that neither had John. Thus, they have made it…

    more
  42. AYP 4: Fantasy Five 1

    Episode 4 is back from the wilderness! It's been shampooed, petted, preened, and now is ready to be put on show. This week, John and Mike list the musicians that would make up their ideal respective supergroups (whilst trying not to spill stout all over the carpet ), but not before getting choked...

  43. AYP 5: Early Daze 1

    Don't be too alarmed by the disparity in the number of podcasts and the number of this podcast - Episode 4 has fallen into a comedy vortex of Adam Sandler films and needs to be cleaned, scraped and reshaped following its massive trauma. In the meantime, get both of your thumbs ready, and move…

    more
  44. AYP 3: Album Swap 1

    After the ATP specials, John and Mike get down to business with the inaugural Album Swap of the series. This week, John recommends 'Second Love' by Emmy The Great, Mike brings Of Montreal's 'Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer?' to the party, and we request your Meat Product Plurals. Don't…

    more
  45. AYP 2: ATP-ness Part Two

    The conclusion to our reportage of the Stewart Lee-curated ATP weekend in Pontins, Prestatyn. Recorded on Monday 2nd May, we discuss Stage 3 (and the difficulty of entering therein), Ex Easter Island Head playing outdoors, Boredoms, Sing-Along-A-Wicker Man, and Mike and Alice's brief foray into...

  46. AYP 1: ATP-ness Part One

    Recorded on 17th April 2016, on the Sunday morning of the Stewart Lee-curated ATP weekend at Pontins, in Prestayn, Wales. We discuss the best & worst of experimental jazz, whether or not podcasts still happen, and Charlotte Church's Pop Dungeon. Featuring Alice, Gordon, John, Matt, and Mike. #ATP...
