David Scott from Moni Jitchell joins us again this week as we round off our deep dive into the discography of Los Campesinos!

We being picking up where we left off last week; in the midst of running through the band's discography. Mark then comes clean and says he actually took notes on the wrong album, before we all go down the rabbit hole of figuring out of Romance is Boring and/or Los Campesinos! are unsung.

A small reminder that if you want to support the podcast you can do so via our Patreon. Not only will you get episodes early, you also get access to our Facebook group (aye we know it’s boomer shit, but we’ve yet to find a better way of mass communication) and you can have some influence on what we cover on the show. There’s also the option of our higher tier, the record club, where your money will go towards supporting independent artists that we think are truly unsung.

If you want to learn more about Moni Jitchell, their most recent release is called Unreal, and you can get it here.

Guest time! In the first of two episodes we chat with David Scott from the band Moni Jitchell about Los Campesinos! and their third album Romance is Boring.

In part one we go into a lengthy deep dive around twee pop, the band’s history and then begin to look closely at their discography, using the band’s own ranking of their first five albums as a means navigation.
