NO ENCORE

Grab your best leather trenchcoat and modified handgun as we take a trip into the artfully gleaming yet logically miserable world of CYBERPUNK - and, of course, its sonic stylings.

And if you fancy donating some of your hard-earned Eurodollars to the NO ENCORE Patreon, we'd encourage you to plug into our bonus episode feed right here.

ACT ONE: Dave reports back from Manchester with a review of the hardcore festival that was OUTBREAK 2026 - well, some of it, at least. Sweat, bruises and circle pits, oh my!

ACT TWO (46:04): Screenland host and entertainment journalist Brian Lloyd joins the show in time for a largely gig-focused news section that takes in Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's expensive nuptials, Lily Allen's contentious West End Girl live tour, Harry Styles' unique seven-city jaunt, Noah Kahan's bowel-upsetting pledge, Javier Bardem's sick music taste, and Michael's continued cinematic dominance.

ACT THREE (1:25:07): Top 5 Cyberpunk Music.

It's the 500th NO ENCORE episode~!

And what better way to celebrate than to have our faithful former co-host Craig Fitzpatrick link back up to follow up on one of our all-time Top 5 topics and indeed performances from way back when.

If you'd like to help us celebrate the festivities, please do so by signing up to the NO ENCORE Patreon where we have weekly bonus episodes including a back-catalogue of over 100 bonus eps – all for as little as €5 per month or a discounted annual membership that gets you a month completely free.

Alas, let's celebrate!

ACT ONE: The preamble, in which we reflect on the milestone of 500 and hear from some callers you might recognise.

ACT TWO (28:23): An obligatory World Cup-music crossover update, the latest on Madonna's scrapped biopic, Metallica encounter Swiftie rage and a pair of counterfeit wristbands, James Blake hits out yet again at a broken music industry and Halsey V Fantano – it's a stacked news section, baby.

ACT THREE (1:02:42): Top 5 Most Overrated.
Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Dave returns to the microphone as Julie and Matt from HAVVK hit the studio in honour of their new album Time Will Kill.

Much to discuss this week, so let's not stand on ceremony...

ACT ONE: The preamble in which Dave invents a new segment.

ACT TWO (7:15): Talking all things Time Will Kill - it's great, so check it out post-haste.

ACT THREE (34:57): SPORTSDAVE leads the charge as World Cup chat kicks off the news section which also features Phoebe Bridgers starting a class war, Hank Azaria moaning about Taylor Swift, a pretty flimsy Rod Stewart excuse, and Bob Dylan on the pros and cons of being an octogenarian.

ACT FOUR (1:08:22): Top 5 Good Time Songs.
