Summary

There are albums in the indie rock and alternative rock realm that were influential and beloved at the time of their release, but have since been lost to the test of time and sadly — some might say shamefully — left out of the widely accepted canon of the genre. On this episode, Steven and Ian are looking to right these wrongs with the creation the Indiecast Hall Of Fame. This week, Hyden and Cohen are using the episode as a way to give proper recognition to albums they love, and to make the case for why they remain important in the lore of indie rock history to this day. Included on the list are records from Counting Crows, The Promise Ring, Afghan Whigs, and more.

In this week’s Recommendation Corner, Cohen has been revisiting Tokyo Police Club’s Champ in honor of its upcoming tenth anniversary. Looking ahead, Hyden is excited about Drunk Tank Pink, the forthcoming effort from UK post-punk outfit Shame.

0:35.6	thinking about a few ways that we could kind of juice up this show for
0:39.9	2021. And first and foremost, I don't know if you remember back like, I think it was like what,
0:46.2	early 2000s where Barry Bonds was chasing the home run record. And ESPN sent a guy called
0:52.7	Pedro Gomez to basically hole up wherever he was playing and
0:56.7	just report on that news as it was happening. I'm wondering now if we should just go ahead,
1:02.3	find a plucky intern who's just going to sit on Twitter all day as we do this live and report
1:08.3	if Lana Del Rey has said or done anything. Because I mean, the 12-hour gap between when this live and report if Lana Del Rey has said or done anything because I mean the 12-hour
1:12.8	gap between when this records and when this runs I once again and I said this last week
1:18.5	I just worried that we're going to be hopelessly outdated by the time that this airs
1:24.5	and something possibly new happens man like can we can we get that in the budget somewhere?
