Episode 26: Shattered Visage

April 27, 2009 at 10:33 pm (Uncategorized)

This is the twenty-sixth edition of the Epileptic Gibbon podcast music show and the blog entry to accompany it. CLICK HERE TO LISTEN. After the fun interview with Tim Burness on the last show it’s time for me to catch up with that backlog of exciting music that’s waiting for me. Therefore there’s music this time from all over the world, including artists from the UK, Canada, Germany and the US, adding up to well over an hour of fascinating and varied music. This month’s feature album is ‘The Feeling of Far’ by the mighty Fritz Doddy, plus there’s the usual diverse selection of styles and genres, including prog rock, electronica, experimental, pronk rock, avant prog, psychedelic ambient punk, post rock and general strangeness. Below you’ll find the track list, plus weblinks from where you can find more information about each artist.
