Description

Steven and Ian begin this week's episode by discussing Ian's upcoming trip to London, which is quickly interrupted by a quick rant by Steven about the (improving!) state of tour T-shirts (4:06 ). Then the guys commence a conversation about Pitchfork's recent list of the best albums of the 2020s, and what some notable exclusions and slights say about the changing critical narrative for the decade (12:23 ). After that, they take stock of a big release day for albums and review the latest from Wild Pink (30:59 ), former Black Midi frontman Geordie Greep (37:12 ), and the new supergroup The Hard Quartet fronted by Stephen Malkmus (45:41 ).

In Recommendation Corner, Ian talks up the emo band Ceres and Steven reps for the fine indie-heartland rock group Trace Mountains (51:04 ).
