Summary

Fair warning: Steven and Ian assumed they would be in a turkey coma this week, so they banked an episode ahead of time in order to fully enjoy their Thanksgiving celebrations. Hopefully, they did not miss any world-changing music news. If they did, just assume that the guys were killed in some music-industry related mishap. Keep their memory in your hearts!

The upside of this is that Steven and Ian are finally inducting some new albums into the Indiecast Hall Of Fame after an endless eight-month hiatus (23:20). Steven decided to pick three albums from one year: 1988. His choices include deathless classics from The Go-Betweens, The Waterboys, and The Smithereens. Ian meanwhile cast a wider net, picking albums from a range of eras including the 1990s (Grant Lee Buffalo), the 2000s (Elbow), and the 2010s (Restorations). It was an incredibly serious and honorable ceremony enjoyed by all!

New episodes of Indiecast drop every Friday. Listen to Episode 165 here and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.

shopping on Black Friday for emo-themed holiday sweaters. Ian Cohen. Ian, how are you? I know that you

0:34.2

mean that as a joke, and yet two days ago, my wife did show me that Pedro the Lion does have a Christmas sweater.

Because, you know, at work, I'm just reminded that in December, on every Friday, we're expected to wear, you know, holiday sweaters.

So, yeah, I might just.

Like an ugly sweater? Is that the thing? Like, we still doing the ugly Christmas sweater thing? See, you got to get in touch with office culture. This is, this is where I come into play. But yeah, we do that. I have a Charlie Brown one. I think I have a Simpsons one. So, you know, most years I buy something on Amazon and just return it and take advantage of Mr. Bezos's very generous return policy.

We'd have Christmas parties and you'd wear

an ugly sweater to the party. And it was very 90s, very quote marks around everything. You know,
