NO ENCORE

Forever. Infinite. For all of time.

Semi Olusa and Corneille Tshibasu of indie shoegaze, "goth-disco" band Cable Boy set out their stall upon the now-present release of their debut album FOREVER as they join Dave and Adam this week to talk about five songs that perfectly encapsulate the idea of something everlasting.

FOREVER is out now as of this podcast dropping, so get it wherever you get your music!

And speaking of good music, the Justin Timberlake Album Club train continues to trudge on as this edition will consist of discussions of his sophomore album FutureSex/LoveSounds, an album Adam had an enormous moment with at the time – even moreso than the one he had with Justified. That's with you on Monday.

However, to keep your spirits high (stratospheric, even), a feature-length Film Club already awaits in the feed in the form of Dave, Andy, and special guest Will Slattery discussing Christopher Nolan's Interstellar, and all-things NASA misgivings, the Chris Nolan filmography and much, much more. Sign up to the NO ENCORE Patreon now for exclusive access to Film Club, Album Club, nearly 100 bonus episodes, ad-free and early access to every weekly podcast, and our everlasting love.

Speaking of everlasting, let's get into the show ahead!

ACT ONE: The preamble, in which we discuss a great many things!

ACT TWO (21:24): Semi and Corn tell us more about Cable Boy's debut album FOREVER.

ACT THREE (42:55): A Coachella speed run, the end of the Chappell Roan Saga, the Michael Jackson biopic unsurprisingly leaves some very important info on the cutting room floor, Dolly Parton proves to be very popular (who knew?), Doja Cat takes aim at Roblox, Violet Grohl speaks out (but not about that) and a hilarious encounter between Trent Reznor and Tom DeLonge comes to light– it's a packed news section.

ACT FOUR (1:24:02): Top 5 Forever Songs.

Let's kick some ice.

That's a line from notorious nightmare Batman & Robin from the year 1997. Walk, don't run.

Thankfully, Dave and Adam are joined this week by the much more delightful Sarah McKenna Barry; outgoing editor of GCN Magazine and expert on the kind of performing arts that make Timothée Chalamet shudder.

Speaking of, her Top 5 invites you to get your skates on, as it were.

Plenty of news to get through before that but do NOT miss out on our Patreon if you've yet to jump in - we're on a heater with recent Album Clubs on Justin Timberlake and Industry, and our next Film Club spectacular, due out this Monday, talking all things Christopher Nolan and Interstellar with special guest Will Slattery of Indo Sport and The Left Wing fame.

Now, onto this week's business...

ACT ONE: The preamble in which - yes - we ramble.

ACT TWO (12:20): Kanye West banned from Britain as the Benn Bong finally sounds again, hipster darlings Sky Ferreira and Charli XCX become entangled in a feud, Ashlee Simpson wants another shot at the big time, the Bono Box is pried open, and the Chappell Roan saga somehow continues to drag on - it's the news.

ACT THREE (59:27): Top 5 Figure Skating Songs

If you've ever heard a song so bizarre that you've asked yourself "how the hell did this get made?", then boy have we got the podcast for you.

Timely that we're recording on April Fools' Day as we welcome Friend of The Show and music journalist extraordinaire Zara Hedderman back to the studio in order to shine the spotlight on some of the most ridiculous music offerings in existence and see if the joke is on us or the artists that released her selections.

Other things that might make you laugh (and in a far less ironic way) is our NO ENCORE Bonus material that you can get over on our Patreon – sign up now to hear the latest Film Club episode as Dave and Andy accept Richard Chambers into their training programme for Denzel Washington and Ethan Hawke's Training Day from 2001.

Adam is back to Album Club corner on Monday forthcoming, and recent events discussed on the podcast have inspired a deep dive on Justified, the 2002 debut solo album from none other than Justin Timberlake. Certainly a lot less difficult to explain than the world tour, and plenty to talk about within. That's landing on Monday coming.

Here's how we're looking this week:

ACT ONE: Zara catches us up on her adventures to see Cameron Winter's Geese in London.

ACT TWO (9:47): Bob Dylan takes to Patreon with new (literary) works, an update on the Chappell Roan events of recent, Kid Rock gets the US Army in some hot water, Bob Marley's dreadlock goes under the hammer and Shaq hits back about sliding into Sabrina Carpenter's DMs – it's the news.

ACT THREE (46:11): Top 5 Is This A Joke?
