     01:37:46
    Corey and Kevin are back to talk about Side B of There is Nothing Left To Lose. You know what makes a good meal? A variety of flavours. A little sweet, a little savoury, perhaps a little sour, and dare we say, a little umami? Yes, we dare; "umami". We get into the weeds a little about sequencing and whether or not Dave's decision to move to a basement in Virginia impacted side two of the album more than side one. Coincidentally, we've covering the song Aurora in the aftermath of one of the biggest social media events, sorry, astronomical events, of recent years! But will Aurora make Corey's heart sing, and what will Kev think of the very late addition to the album based on a riff that Dave came up with during mixing?The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and come home... next year! Songs covered in this episode:"Aurora", "Live-In Skin", "Next Year", "Headwires", "Ain't It the Life", "M.I.A."Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UltimateCatalogueClashTwitter: https://twitter.com/UCatalogueClashBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ucatalogueclash.bsky.social

  • 6. There Is Nothing Left To Lose - Side A

     01:40:03
    Corey and Kevin are back to look at side one of There is Nothing Left To Lose. How to follow up a massive album like The Colour and the Shape? Well, you could hire the best hotshot producer in the world and head over to the best recording studio money can rent. Or maybe, just maybe, you could buy a house in Virginia and convert the basement into a studio and hang out with your two bandmates and create a much mellower record. On balance, we're pretty happy that Dave opted to peek behind door number two. Will Corey be on board with another song about Hollywood after covering the enigmatic Memory Remains last season? Will Kevin like the shouty, shouty approach of Dave's vocal in Breakout? The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and cry when they all die blonde! Songs covered in this episode:"Stacked Actors", "Breakout", "Learn to Fly", "Gimme Stitches", "Generator"Don't forget to follow us on social media and leave us a rating/review if you're enjoying the show!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UltimateCatalogueClashTwitter: https://twitter.com/UCatalogueClashBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/ucatalogueclash.bsky.social
