Show Notes

Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. The Violent Femmes rolled out of their native Milwaukee like a freight train, conquering college radio for a couple decades to come. The crew discuss the benefits of simply constructed songs, the perennial marketability of teenage angst, and the recording studio swagger needed to "reinvent" rock and roll.
