NoMeansNo Thing

Ep 45 - There’s Always Room For

Don't look up, because the Sky Is Falling, and I Want My Mommy!  We decided to tackle this album before we start Round 2 proper, and in this episode we tackle four of the songs (1/2 the album) and give them our usual fair and objective treatment.  Our randomizer pit The Sky is Falling vs. Chew, and Bad vs. Ride the Flume.  How do you feel about this album?  Your answer to that question may prefigure how you will feel about this episode! :)  I think, it's safe to say, that we are enjoying this re-visitation of this album more than we expected. 

Ep 44 - The People’s Choice!

Don't listen to this one first; it spoils ALL THE SUSPENSE of everything before it. But if suspense gives you the jibblies, then by all means fill y' boots, chum. Unless you like the jibblies. In your jorts. Point being: this episode wrecks the results of TWO YEARS' WORTH of our yammering. So don't do it. Start at ep.1, listen to ep. 0 if you absolutely must, and please keep in mind that it wasn't until about ep. 12 that we weren't totally mortified that our nerdy bullshit was out in the world where humans could hear it.

*****

The votes are in, in the most consequential election of our lifetimes!  A whole bunch of you submitted your votes for which songs to rescue from relegation, and in this episode we report in on which six songs you've managed to save and bring forward into Round 2.  We are very very pleased with your choices.  But, because we are the petty dictators that we are, we also chose six songs to rescue from the dustbin.  This means 12 of our precious babies (six from you, six from us) will live at least a short while longer.  But many many more have now finally and officially been cast into the outer darkness, where there is much gnashing of teeth.  The reality of that has really sunk in now.  Don't like it.

Ep 43 - This Episode is not Indicative of the Quality of our Podcast

This one's a real turkey, folks!  I mean, do your three favorite NoMeansNerds bullshit together for just over an hour?  Yep.  Are we talking about your favorite band, THE BEST band of all time?  Also yep.  Is it as coherent and entertaining as past episodes?  Low bar, but prolly nope.  But, hey, maybe for you 'Muricans it will give you an hour of distraction and reprieve from your relatives and/or the dishes.  Anyway, we'll be back with real episodes which talk about songs real soon.  Until then, you get this.  Sorry.

Ep 42 - En God Kilde Til Kalsium

After two long months slogging through regular ol' life, we finally have a new episode for you.  No, it's not the official start of Round 2, its the first half of our Round 1 round up.  Is it worth your time? I dunno.  We had a great time recording it though.  And, some interesting fault lines are starting to appear regarding opinions on what will make it all the way down the field.  We hope you'll listen, and part 2 should be released on the regular Thursday schedule in a few weeks.  After that, not sure how soon Round 2 will officially launch, but we are beginning work on it, so things are looking good.  Thank you everyone!

Ep 41 - Dropped Glottis

WE DID IT.  Season 1 complete!  We made our way through the entire catalog, boring you with our dumb takes on each. And. Every.  Freaking.  Song.  This week, as our gift to you for making it through so many episodes of this podcast, we are brining you a THREE HOUR PODCAST.  Do yourself a favor and break it up into several listening sessions.  Our last roster of competitors, 6 this time is:  New Age vs. Ya Little Creep, The Rape vs. Black Silhouette, and Almost Like Home vs. Perambulate.  Plus, a bunch of listener submissions, and the very last set of Andy's Kerrections....so pull up a beer, a chair, a rock, or whatever, and enjoy!  We will be taking a bit of a break, maybe 2 maybe three months.  We'll be hard at work during that time working on season 2.  See you soon(ish)!

Ep 40 - King of the Thing in the Fnguikc Floor

In our penultimate episode of Round 1, we tackle four beastly songs from across the spectrum of tone and era.  It's Catching Up vs. Living is Free and Hunt the She Beast vs. Angel or Devil.  Say your prayers and lock your doors, because there is a lot comin' at you this episode.  

Ep 39 - Coffee Time with NoMeansNo Thing

Grab a giant steaming black mug of mud and sit through another episode of the search for the best NMN song of all time.  We pit Give Me the Push vs. Too Much Dope and Lullaby vs. No Means No.  Since two of the songs in this roster are very obscure, we decided to put the whole track up for your enjoyment (and because they aren't 8 min epics).  Enjoy!

Ep 38 - And then the really dark Toms come in

We've been fairly unanimous as of late with our picks, something maybe some of you have been yelling about into your speakers or a cloud.  But not this week.  Drama and suspense abound as opinions skew wildly different on this strange and interesting slate of choices:

All the Little Bourgeoise vs. Forward to Death, and Oh Canaduh vs. Faith!  Place your bets!  Who will win?  Which side will YOU choose?

Ep 37 - Dr. Strangeylove, or: Intercontinental Ballistic Michelle

Strap on your Trident Missiles folks and ride them all the way to punk town.  This week that terrible machine has brought forth a few very very VERY old tunes, both of which happen to be about Nuclear Annihilation!  Fun stuff!  It's I Get Up In The Morning vs. More ICBMs and No Sex vs. Burn.  Duck and cover!!!!!

Ep 36 - No Sax, Only Fgnuikc

Sorry for being a week late, but better late than never?  This episode is, completely by random happenstance, we promise, a Father's Day appropriate episode.  Grab your horn and get ready to be blown away by four more amazing songs from the NMN catalog.  This week we pit Dad vs. Approaching Zero and Wiggly Worm vs. Rich Guns.  Damn these guys make amazing music.  Enjoy!
