Summary
This week's Indiecast was recorded a few days earlier than usual, so if there was some major indie news that is not discussed, that is why. Why did the guys record early? Well, Steven shipped off to Dayton, Ohio to see the 40th anniversary shows for Guided By Voices. Before he left, he previewed the weekend — which he dubbed "45-Year-Old Indie Fan Woodstock" — with Ian (1:45).
After that, Steven and Ian review the new self-titled album from Zach Bryan, a country superstar who has some strong indie/emo guy tendencies (13:32). Then the guys discuss the new album by actual emo-adjacent star Jeff Rosenstock, who attempts to segue to a more mature sound with Hellmode. (30:20)
In Recommendation Corner (47:54), Ian talks about a new EP from the darkwave act Drab Majesty, while Steven recommends the 1980s era Australian indie band Died Pretty in light of the recent death of lead singer Ron Peno.

| 0:33.3 | this shows the wavelength we're on, because you could have picked any of the 550,000 guided by voices |
| 0:39.6 | songs and you chose the one that was infamously covered by, An You Will Know Us by the Trail of |
| 0:45.6 | Dead on their much maligned 2006 album, so divided. Although you could have chosen Game of Pricks |
| 0:51.5 | because Jimmy Eat World covered that one. |
| 0:58.3 | You know, I don't remember Trail of Dead covering that song. |
| 1:02.9 | Well, so divided, I think I dropped off by then, |
| 1:07.4 | because you had Worlds Apart, very controversial album in the moment, where a lot of people didn't like it when it came out, |
| 1:10.5 | and then it became an album |
| 1:11.6 | that, you know, people wanted to defend. I think you're one of the people. I'm absolutely |
| 1:17.9 | one of those people. Someone, I think it was Larry Fitzmaurice mentioned that the arms new album |
| 1:23.5 | kind of has trailer that energy, and I'm like, I kind of wish they made it more worlds apart, though. |
