Here comes a feeling you thought you'd forgotten - Dave Hanratty and Craig Fitzpatrick, teaming up to co-host NO ENCORE once again!
Sonic Architect Adam looking on, beaming with pride, of course. Craig returns to the fold in honour of the brand new Vampire Weekend album Only God Was Above Us, as he details his career-spanning choice cuts from the New York City faithful.
Before that, we've got a busy news section and the reveal of our new Patreon-exclusive project.
Don't forget, you can get this and every new NO ENCORE episode 24 hours early and ad-free, AND additional bonus audio content by signing up to Patreon.com/noencore
ACT ONE: The preamble in which we ramble - Dave nods to a classic movie score before responding to some listener criticism, while Adam introduces the NO ENCORE Album Club.
ACT TWO (13:50): Eurovision participants reject boycott calls, 40 years of song lyrics go under the microscope, Calvin Harris battles critics and jet lag, Shakira arrives late to the Barbie party, Laura Dern endorses Taylor Swift, and a rare find just may provoke Craig's interest.
