The KLF! The real story of the band that burnt one million quid

from Talk ’90s to me · host Podmasters

The brand new podcast that dives deep into all things ’90s. Bill Drummond and Jimmy Cauty didn’t just make pop music in the 90s. They abducted it, held it to ransom, then gleefully set it on fire. From their acid-house days to a feud with ABBA and eventually a million-quid bonfire, The KLF combined pop with art and the final result was chaos. This week, Miranda Sawyer talks to Joe Muggs about how two pop pranksters built a cult out of rave culture, Doctor Who mashups and why people are still searching for the road to Mu Mu Land.
