Suck It And Spin: The Podcast

Another bleak month in lockdown, so we hope to brighten and break up the day a little with some cutting edge new music, shoddy banter and a few facts about Mark E Smith, a.k.a. The Fall, F being this month's letter of the month.

Also, the latest tracks from Mur-man, Octopus and Do Nothing, an old favourite from Iggy Pop and we look at a few live stream highlights from the last fortnight.

Follow us @suckitandspin on all major platforms.

As COVID-19 grips our nation, and it’s worldwide effects are fed direct to our living rooms, the message is clear. Doom, gloom & social isolation. The pubs have shut, the gigs have stopped, the tables in bars are no longer being danced on… 

NO MORE WE SAY!

We’ve decided instead to bring some positivity to the airwaves!  For Episode 5, in a Suck It & Spin first, we broadcast March’s episode of the Podcast LIVE.

Listen to is here now - with music from Cabbage, Sky Valley Mistress, The Slow Readers Club, Thumper, The Orielles, The Lounge Society and this month's letter is E for Elvis Presley.

Episode 4 of the Suck It & Spin podcast sees our first ever live session with Blackburn's Waltz Away, a sneak preview of Melon Yellow festival and tracks from two of this years line up, Gaffa Tape Sandy and Lauran Hibbard, plus gig reviews of Porij and a track from one of our ones to watch in 2020, Peaness.

Third time is definitely a charm! Ten days into 2020 (and ten days sober!) we take a look back on our favourite artists, gigs, festivals, songs and releases of 2019... and our tips on who to look out for this year. 

Featuring music from the likes of 'Working Mens Club', 'HMLTD' (formerly Happy Meals), The Reytons and Sports Team, our favourite Festivals from Confessional to All Points East - somehow via Gods of Rap - gig and album highlights of the year, plus our letter of the month is 'C' for the 'Clash', and ShiTunes brings an unexpected artist to the Suck It & Spin airways.

Our second Episode is live!

More gig reviews, more live shows... we've been to see and interview 'Mr Ben & The Bens' after the Manchester leg of the "Who knows Jenny Jones?" album tour, we've got tracks for Scruff of the Neck artists 'The Hubbards' and 'Cassia' and a live review of the latter. A track and live review of one of favourite bands 'Warmduscher'. We've got out usual feature ShiTunes - taking a look at the best of the worst - and this month's Artist letter is the letter 'B' for 'Blur'.

Enjoy!

Our inaugural episode of the brand new Suck It & Spin monthly podcast.

In this episode we've got music from Heist or Hit signing Nature TV, a review of the Huskey Loops live show, gig previews including Glass Caves and Mr Ben and the Ben's, plus general patter, daft behaviour and some facts you didn't know about Arcade Fire.
