A Random Playlist Episode

In this episode of Music at a Rational Volume Nate and Kyle share with you a random sampling of tunes they've been enjoying recently. It is by all accounts, a mixed bag, but there's a variety of old stuff, new stuff, and stuff in-between. Listen as the hosts discuss the whys with lots of tangents and whining from Kyle's puppy dog, Astro. Enjoy everybody!

12. Crashland - Maris (Will debut on her upcoming EP, “Gravity” in March. I found this one looking for similar stuff, like Mimi Webb, Metric, Chvrches, Tegan and Sarah… etc.. There’s probably gonna be a playlist at some point.)

17. Dracula From Houston - Butthole Surfers (Weird Revolution, 2001)
18. 555 - Jimmy Eat World (Surviving, 2019) (Decent band, decent album, but this is the best thing on it. Just never a reason to talk about it.)
19. Prospect Street - The Big Dish (Swimmer, 1986) (A should be classic from an underrated Scottish band. Released in 1985)
20. Crazy - Northern Portrait (Criminal Art Lovers, 2009) (Band formed in Copenhagen Denmark in 2007. This tune has been hanging around my periphery for a long time and every time I hear it I love it.)
