Is It Worse Than...

The only music podcast that isn't afraid to ask the really tough question: Is It Worse Than 311? Each episode we examine the careers of any given artist and take the piss out of the life works of people who are far, far more successful than ourselves (mostly). Through our cynical analysis we hope to help listeners discover the albums that they'll love to add to their collection and those that you only listen to out of morbid curiosity. But most importantly we are looking for some truths that we can carry with us in to the future, because if 311 isn't the worst band ever, then who is?

IS IT WORSE THAN JOHN LENNON?

Part 5. Only one more to go. We finally made it to the... uh... what did they call John Lennon? The funny one? The goofy one? The abusive one? Probably that one. This guy really liked rock'n'roll and staying in bed. What's not to like. I couldn't see anything bad happening to somebody like that.

IS IT WORSE THAN PAUL MCCARTNEY?

Part 4 of our series will give you Wings! Like Red Bull, accept it's Sir Paul McCartney. He's a filthy stinking rotten monarchist, but he wrote Simply Having A Wonderful Christmas Time so nobody is upset about it.

IS IT WORSE THAN RINGO STARR?

Part 3 of our 6 part series on The Beatles is all about the world's best drummer! Ringo Starr! He got that name because he likes rings. Seriously. That's why he's called that.Peace.Love.

IS IT WORSE THAN GEORGE HARRISON?

Part 2 of our senselessly deep dive of The Beatles. The quiet one. The spiritual one. The one who didn't get as many songs on The Beatle's albums. George Harrison. He made a video in the 80's where he sat in a room as the taxidermy and furniture around him danced around like some sort of pleasant Evil Dead remake. It's pretty cool. He does a dance towards the end.

IS IT WORSE THAN THE BEATLES?

Everybody knows who The Beatles are. They're the guys that invented modern rock, boy bands, guitar playing and LSD. Your dad wouldn't shut up about them when you were a kid. They're so great. Until you compare them quintessential 90's alt rock band 311 that is. In this six part series we will examine as much of the musical output from every member of The Beatles (and Yoko) as is humanly possible for any normal podcast host. Part one of our series starts with the main event, the Fab Four themselves, Is It Worse Than The Beatles.

IS IT WORSE THAN STEREOLAB?

This is an exact replica of an unreleased episode of Info Wars. For some reason it just happened to be about the band Stereolab and the possibility of them being worse than 311.
