Pallbearer released a brand spanking new album in 2024 that we've only just gotten around to. They were getting quite progressive and a little gentler on recent releases, so let's see if that trend continues here. Check in as we discuss the Opener, the Killer, the Grower and the Filler.

After their underappreciated first album, All Them Witches found a growing audience with Lightning At The Door. Many of these songs are still featured on their setlists today. Let's see what all the fuss is about!

OK, it's time for a new band, and we're back in more familiar territory here with the heavy, bluesy tones of All Them Witches. Physical copies of their debut, Our Mother Electricity, are notoriously difficult to find, so we downloaded this album from Bandcamp and gave it the Unshuffled treatment.

For whatever reason, the fourth album from LCD Soundsystem doesn't seem to be a fan favourite. Maybe it's because fans felt betrayed by the band releasing an album after their so-called "last ever gig". Maybe it's the crappy artwork. But for us it's all about the music, so let's see if this album deserves more credit than it seems to get.

Alright here we are then, definitely LCD Soundsystem's LAST EVER ALBUM, so you'd better buy it, and buy tickets to their last ever concert, OK? Except that none of that was true. But we won't hold that against them now, will we?

OK, we're getting the hang of this band now: bleeps, bloops, repetitive robot dance tracks, and the odd punk-inspired freak out. But do we actually like it?

We try a completely new genre in Unshuffled this episode, as we branch out into the world of electronica with LCD Soundsystem. Will we have anything interesting to say, or will it be like two cavemen trying to discuss quantum physics?

Released in October 2020, at the height of the pandemic, Pallbearer's fourth album received widespread critical acclaim and featured on many 'best of' lists for the year. Let's see if it lives up to the hype!

Pallbearer headed back to their home town of Little Rock, Arkansas to record their third album, Heartless. They took the production of the record back in house too, eschewing big name producers and fancy studios. Let's see if these changes signal a new direction for the band after their crushing first and second albums.

After their crushing, Sabbath-inspired debut, it was always going to be fascinating to hear how Pallbearer could possibly follow it up. Recorded at Type Foundry Studios in Portland, Oregon, with respected doom producer Billy Anderson on board, let's how their songwriting and sound evolved on their second album.

We're always super excited when we start out with a new band, and we've been meaning to do a doom band for ages so we're doubly excited for this one. Let's see if Pallbearer's first album can deliver!

And Now... we come the fourth and final album from this legendary and groundbreaking band, The Runaways. Constant lineup changes, different artistic visions, infighting and exploitation have sadly driven The Runaways into oblivion - let's see if it ends with a bang or a whimper.
