The Best of the Month episode is normally Patreon-only. We are making this one fully public.
This month’s best of the month guest is Nialler9 Podcast regular Louise Bruton.
We discuss the album of the month with the most chatter around it – Lily Allen’s new direct diaristic divorce album West End Girl, along with records from Irish music scene stalwart Maykay with her long awaited debut solo album, the new sixth album from Florence + The Machine, Katie & Allison Crutchfield’s Snocaps record, the supernaturally-inspired Old Earth from Dublin producer Rory Sweeney and friends, the Philadelphia shoegaze band They Are Gutting A Body Of Water and the new PinkPantheress remix album.
Along with spotlights for previous guest Ailbhe Reddy and short king hater Alex Cameron.
Plus some TV, film and books we’ve enjoyed.
