Summary

This is an indie rock podcast, which needs to be reiterated because of episodes like this one. In this episode, Steven Hyden and Ian Cohen discuss some very un-indie rock topics.

For instance, they go deep on Rolling Stone's recent article about the current state of Live, the '90s grunge band famous for songs like "Lightning Crashes" and "I Alone." Why are they talking about Live in 2023? Because things are bananas in Live-world at the moment! You have con men, QAnon conspiracy theorists, the AVN Awards, and that's just the tip of the iceberg.

Then they talked about Skrillex, who is back with two new albums, and the rise of early 2010s nostalgia (15:20). Oh, and they also answered a listener question about Incubus (24:07). Again, this is an indie rock podcast!

In the "meat" of the episode, they inducted four new albums into the Indiecast Hall Of Fame (32:21) — in this round, they honor LPs released by Sunset Rubdown, The Elected, The Good Life, and The Fresh & Onlys. Finally, in their Recommendation Corner (53:02) segment, they shouted out new records by Philip Selway and Model/Actriz.

0:22.6	In this episode, we induct four new albums into the Indycast Hall of Fame. My name is Stephen Hayden, and I'm joined by my friend
0:28.9	and co-host. He can't get enough of Likini's Juice. Ian Cohen. Ian, how are you? More wine, more
0:35.8	skin. That is the Indycast way today.
0:39.3	We are really just going off on a limb
0:42.4	and assuming that the average indie cast listener
0:45.2	knows the song Wikini's Juice.
0:47.0	But then again, like,
0:48.7	people were like straight up asking us
0:50.8	to do an entire live episode.
0:52.5	They're going to be like so disappointed
0:53.7	when we switch to other topics in 30, like,
0:56.6	in, you know, in 20, 30 minutes.
0:58.5	It's like, well, maybe we won't, though.
1:00.8	Maybe we'll just get on a wavelength talking about throwing copper where we're just going
1:07.1	to, like, boot the Indycast Hall of Fame to the next episode.
1:11.0	I think it's hilarious that we're talking about live L-I-V-E, the 90s alt-rock band,
1:18.2	and not live L-I-V-Py, the acclaimed indie R&B act,
