58:51

It's November which means it's Radon Action Month! Join Jacob as he sits down with Dr. Dustin Pearson, a key part of the recent Cross-Canada Radon Survey released in October 2024. They discuss the impact that climate change has on radon levels, energy efficiency in homes, and how radon impacts our lung health! This is the most cutting edge research…

Punish, Honey by Vessel - 340 1:32:38

8d ago1:32:38

1:32:38

We've covered one Bristolian artist in the past - Portishead - so its high time we return to that electronic cornucopia. To be honest, Bristol itself is not a huge feature of this podcast. But Vessel certainly is. We take a deep dive into his back catalogue before returning to Chris' choice of Punish, Honey, the second album by the innovative elect…

Romance is Boring by Los Campesinos! w/ David Scott from Moni Jitchell (Side B) - 339 1:24:38

15d ago1:24:38

1:24:38

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 figu…

Romance is Boring by Los Campesinos! w/ David Scott from Moni Jitchell (Side A) - 338 1:20:54

22d ago1:20:54

1:20:54

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 …

Act II: The Father of Death by The Protomen - 337 1:50:44

29d ago1:50:44

1:50:44

We've briefly touched on geek rock in the past - Weezer and Laeto spring to mind - but never in any detail. That all changes this week as we look at the genre through the lens of The Protomen. We also chat extensively about the band, their discography and their frankly brilliant homage to 80s rock.על ידי Bleav + Unsung Podcast

The White Plague - Our Past Revisited 1:11:54

1M ago1:11:54

1:11:54

You've heard of the 'black plague', but what about the 'white plague'? This episode of the show is dedicated to Alberta Lung's 85th anniversary of advocating for lung health. On this month's edition of The Unsung Lung Podcast, Jacob sits down with renowned tuberculosis expert, Dr. Anne Fanning. A member of the Order of Canada and one of Alberta's P…

The Crow: Original Soundtrack (Side B) - 336 1:01:41

1M ago1:01:41

1:01:41

Last week we spoke about the music of the sequels to The Crow (1994). We also spoke about the new crow film (The Crow (2024)), but we kind of cut it a little short because we didn't talk about the music of the new film. We do that this week before we dive headlong into the original soundtrack of the very first film in The Crow franchise. Not sure I…

The Music of The Crow (Side A) - 335 54:38

1M ago54:38

54:38

Another episode where we're taking direct inspiration from something that we mentioned in an early show, we've decided to do two whole bloody episodes on the music of The Crow film franchise. In episode one we talk about the music from the very poor sequels to the original film: City of Angels and Salvation. Surprisingly, even though the movies the…

Face of Collapse by Dazzling Killmen - 334 1:24:51

2M ago1:24:51

1:24:51

Usually, we like to space things out. You may have noticed that over the years, we'll do a metal album one week, then perhaps change it up with electro or something else. So, for us to do two post-hardcore/noise rock(ish) records so close together is a bit unheard of. But hey, what's the point of having a set of rules if you don't break them occasi…

Sound is a Pound #8 (Highly Evolved by The Vines and Planet Claire by The B-52's) - 333 1:11:19

2M ago1:11:19

1:11:19

Sound is a pound is always good fun. You'd be amazed what you can pick up for a quid in a charity shop. It's been about 18 months since our last one of these and frankly, we'd forgotten what albums we'd "gifted" each other at the end of the last episode. So Mark decided to pick two that he'd bought for Chris: Planet Claire by The B-52's (a strange …

Hide the Kitchen Knives by The Paper Chase - 332 2:01:41

2M ago2:01:41

2:01:41

John Congleton is a great producer, and as it turns out, also a great musician. The Paper Chase were, for many years, his only musical project and even as his star began to rise as a producer, he was still churning out unsettling, chromatic, occasionally catchy, often nasty music. Often described as a combination of avant-garde jazz, indie and punk…

Airway Advocacy: Addressing Gaps in Lung Health Care 59:04

2M ago59:04

59:04

Access to care is one of the most pressing issues in Canadian healthcare. From long wait times at hospitals to low levels of family physicians throughout the country, this is an issue that spans across the entirety of medicine in Canada. But what about a pharmacist's take on access to care? On this edition of The Unsung Lung Podcast, Jacob sits dow…

Unsong: Animal Nitrate by Suede - 331 58:51

2M ago58:51

58:51

Long terms fans of the show will know that we've spent altogether far too much time talking about Britpop. And the bad news is that it looks like it's ABOUT BECOME ALL ANYONE TALKS ABOUT when Oasis announce their reunion. We recorded this episode before those rumours started to creep out. Funny how these things happen. Anyway, Mark fell into a Sued…

Covermount Mixtape: Mojo Presents: Ok_Computer - 330 1:16:03

3M ago1:16:03

1:16:03

A quick note of correct: we haven't done a Mojo covermount before. It was Uncut, but the audience for both magazines was/is broadly the same... Or so Mojo would have you believe. We'll be honest: the bag of covermounts is full of questionable CDs, so it was actually something of a surprise to land on something interesting. This Mojo covermount is, …

PATREON BONUS UNLOCKED: In Session with Stoffel from Yacøpsæ 51:48

3M ago51:48

51:48

A few months ago we covered Tanz, Grozny Tanz by Yacøpsæ and if you listened to that episode, we mentioned how we'd reached out to the band for some info. They didn't get back to us in time, but band member Stoffel was keen to hear the podcast, so we sent him a link to it. Luckily he was a fan, but there was a few points he wanted to clear up. Afte…

Baader Meinhof by Baader Meinhof w/ Luminous - 329 1:44:14

3M ago1:44:14

1:44:14

Can you believe it was back in February 2020 when we did our Britpop mixtape? How wild is that? This week we're joined by Glaswegian musician Andy Isacsson, otherwise known as Luminous, who has picked this week’s record. We chat at length about his latest record, Precarious Karma, which took him about a decade to complete. We dive into the influenc…

Paws and Breathe: Everything Pets and Lung Health 55:22

3M ago55:22

55:22

On the 30th episode of The Unsung Lung Podcast, Jacob sits down with veterinarian and Director of Animal Health at the Edmonton Humane Society, Dr. Michelle Meckelborg. Pivoting from our normal conversations about humans and lung health, the two discuss everything animals and pets! From short-nosed pugs to Dr. Meckelborg's real life experiences of …

Manic Compression by Quicksand - 328 1:43:59

3M ago1:43:59

1:43:59

Is this a controversial choice? Quicksand's debut album Slip is widely regarded a classic, and in my quarters the band are seen as being hugely influential. So in many ways, picking their second album, Manic Compression, as an unsung classic seems like a no-brainer. On this episode, Chris talk about why this album is not just an unsung classic, but…

Hour of the Ox by Katie Kim - 327 1:43:29

4M ago1:43:29

1:43:29

Hailing from Ireland, Katie Kim is an artist who has demonstrated remarkable musical growth over the course of her career so far. Evolving from lo-fi folk to dark, experimental, haunting, almost ambient alternative rock. This week, we talk about her entire discography, before diving into her riveting fourth album, Hour of the Ox.…

Eight Arms to Hold You by Veruca Salt - 326 1:44:30

4M ago1:44:30

1:44:30

One thing that we find particularly fun about this podcast (most of the time) is re-appraising records from our youth. Taking a closer, critical look at something you were once super familiar with is often eye opening. Particularly if it's a record you remember liking a lot at one time but have since stopped listening to. Most of the time, it's a f…

Vanishing Vision by X Japan - 325 1:26:50

4M ago1:26:50

1:26:50

X Japan have released a proper studio album since 1996. They did release a soundtrack in 2016, and released the occasional single too, but as for a longer release? Nada. Zilch. Of course, some of this is down to the fact they essentially broke up and only reunited in 2007. In this episode, we'll be talking about their 5 studio albums. Chris' album …

1
The History and Tragedy of X Japan - 324 56:09

4M ago56:09

56:09

There's been a fair amount of ink spilled on X Japan over the years in certain media outlets. You can even find recent interviews with drummer/pianist/primary songwriter and Japanese megastar Yoshiki in prestigious publications like Time magazine. X Japan, however, remain something of an enigma on British shores. Sure, Yoshiki – a classically train…

Living with Asthma: Stories and Strategies 54:15

54:15

The 'Patient Spotlight Series' is back in action and we're here to teach you about what it's like to have asthma! On this episode of the show, Jacobs sits down with lifelong asthma patient, Jessica Poirier. They discuss stereotypes, the challenges of asthma, and the disease progression from childhood through to the adult years. We're so grateful to…

The Music of James Bond (Side B) - 323 2:01:36

5M ago2:01:36

2:01:36

We knew this episode was gonna grow arms and legs when we realised that there are 27 Bond songs to talk about. So, now that we've dispensed with the history of Bond music, it's time to tackle every single one of these songs in chronological order. This doesn't include the original Bond theme from Dr. No (cause we discussed that at length in side A)…

The Music of James Bond (Side A) - 322 1:42:00

5M ago1:42:00

1:42:00

What if we told you that the musical history of James Bond is actually so much more interesting than the history of the films? And that's not knocking the history of the films - they're plenty fascinating too. The music though? Super interesting. From the theory and the cultural cache of the Bond song, to the near misses and the rejected tracks, we…

Mata Leão by Biohazard w/ Scott Walker from Shit You May Not Have Seen Podcast - 321 2:12:10

5M ago2:12:10

2:12:10

If it feels like the length of our episode are getting longer on average then you’d be correct. This is likely because we have lost all pretence of restraint around how comprehensive we are. This week, we’re joined by Scott Walker for the Shit You May Not Have Seen Podcast to do a fairly definitive overview of the band Biohazard. A band who are als…

What is Epidemiology? 52:31

5M ago52:31

52:31

As summer is approaching in Alberta, the warmer temperatures remind us of fun things like water parks on a warm sunny day and a bike ride through your favourite park. They also remind us of the not-so-fun-things, like wildfires and climate change. On this episode of The Unsung Lung Podcast, Jacob sits down with Epidemiologist, Dr. Scott Weichenthal…

Here it is. Another whopper of an episode. But this one has lots and LOTS of contributors. From one time and former hosts and a bunch of your suggestions too, we tried to be as comprehensive as possible within our little sphere of listeners. Thanks for your contributions to this episode. It really made it feel like a communal affair, and that's an …

The Steve Albini Retrospective (Side A) - 319 1:09:32

6M ago1:09:32

1:09:32

Steve Albini's impact on alternative music is undeniable. From the sheer number of artists he collaborated with to his unwavering defense of fair treatment for musicians, his presence continues to be felt. His anti-capitalist views on the music industry may not have always aligned with everyone's, but his convictions were never in doubt. This influ…

FROM THE VAULT: Episode 38 - La Roux by La Roux 1:10:36

6M ago1:10:36

1:10:36

This week, much like last week, wanted to provide a vault episode that was a contrast to Thursday, and you can't get much further away from Thursday than La Roux. Chris is a huge fan of this album and because Dave and Mark couldn't quite believe that, this record and episode continually gets referenced on various episodes. It's just so improbable, …

Common Existence by Thursday (Side B) w/ Sean Patrick Campbell (Damn Teeth, Thin Privilege) - 318 2:15:40

6M ago2:15:40

2:15:40

If you thought we'd prattled on about the history of Thursday a little too much in episode one well we've got some news for you - part two is a BEAST. It's 2 hours and 15 minutes long. Why? Because that's the unsung way. We give their discography a thorough analysis whilst continuing to chart the band's history. We also hear about how Geoff Rickly …

FROM THE VAULT: UNSONG - Real American by Rick Derringer 41:25

6M ago41:25

41:25

Turns out that Chris and Mark are big wrestling fans. Mark moreso than Chris, but still, probably something only die hard fans of the pod are aware of. That's not the reason we did an episode on Rick Derringer's Real American though (otherwise known as Hulk Hogan's theme song). It's because the song is great and comes with a pretty mad story. So ye…

What the heck is going on with Helldivers 2? 28:00

6M ago28:00

28:00

How a Steam account-linking fiasco turned into a victory for democracy. Helldivers 2 was removed from the PC market in 177 countries and the game’s Steam reviews collapsed under the weight of more than 200,000 negative ratings, dropping from Positive to Mixed. It’s now Tuesday and the Helldivers 2 Steam page is overrun with people ranting against S…

Common Existence by Thursday (Side A) w/ Sean Patrick Campbell (Damn Teeth, Thin Privilege) - 317 1:01:47

6M ago1:01:47

1:01:47

As a die-hard Thursday fan, this week's guest comes right out the gates in explaining why Thursday he'll always love. And as it turns out, they're quite an easy band to love due to their ethics and overall affability as a band. Geoff Rickly himself often comes across earnestly and well in interviews, which is something Chris is keen to point out an…

FROM THE VAULT: The Nu Metal Mixtape 1:20:33

6M ago1:20:33

1:20:33

Just over 6 years ago we came up with an idea. Well, Chris did, to be precise. What if we do an episode where we each pick an album and then put them head to head, with the public deciding which one is best. That's how our mixtape was born. Since then, it's kinda moved away the format of each of us picking an album and backing it, and started to be…

The "C" Word 1:01:26

6M ago1:01:26

1:01:26

It almost seems like a bad word. The "C" word. Cancer. Today, Jacob sits down with Dr. Quincy Chu and Dr. Paul Wheatley-Price to discuss everything lung cancer. They talk about Lung Cancer Canada, new lung cancer treatments, and Dr. Wheatley-Prince's podcast called Lung Cancer Voices. This was an amazing discussion bridging health policy with every…

In this episode, we delve into the age-old debate in gaming: Is it better to buy advantages or work for them? Join us as we explore the pros and cons of both approaches, discussing the allure of instant gratification versus the satisfaction of earning rewards through gameplay. Whether you're a seasoned gamer or new to the scene, this podcast offers…

FROM THE VAULT: Episode 209 – The History of the Covermount CD 1:19:15

6M ago1:19:15

1:19:15

The covermount CD is certainly a relic from a bygone era. We actually have a bag full of them, all acquired through various means, none of them worth anything. But when was the covermount CD, or tape born, why, and what were the political and economic factors involved in magazines creating them, and artists getting on them? We break it all down in …

Covermount Mixtape: Radio Kerrang! Vol. 6 (Side B) w/ Grant Donaldson (Moni Jitchell) - 316 1:16:50

7M ago1:16:50

1:16:50

With the exception of Soul Asylum and the Presidents of the USA, unless you were seriously tuned into Kerrang! and/or alternative music in the 90s there are very few bands you'll remember, let alone recognise, in the back half of this CD. Bullyrag, Janus Stark, Pulkas, Cecil, Pissing Razors and Genitorturers have all vanished more or less into obli…

This week Grant Donaldson joins us to talk about this Kerrang! covermount CD that came out during the hey day of nu metal. Turns out Grant is quite unfamiliar with nu metal so this was a real fun episode. In side A we talk about the first half of this CD, which includes the talents of Jerry Cantrell, Everclear, Bad Religion, Psycore and One Minutes…

FROM THE VAULT: Sound is a Pound Episode 1 - (Onka's Big Moka by Toploader) 19:49

7M ago19:49

19:49

Born from a fever dream, Mark had the idea to review records found in poundland. You used to be able to get some primo garbage for a quid. Sadly, you can no longer buy CDs in poundland but the memory lives on. To that end, we thought it'd be fun to revisit the first in our series called Sound is a Pound. And on episode one, we reviewed Onka's Big M…

Given the sheer amount of work we've done lately on the pod, we thought we'd do something a little easy and do an episode on music in advertising. Except, it actually turned out to NOT be that easy because, well, this is a pretty fascinating topic. In part one we talk about the history of music in advertising and pick a couple of examples.…

FROM THE VAULT: Episode 68 - Terrifyer by Pig Destroyer 1:29:35

7M ago1:29:35

1:29:35

We've been on a real run of pulling out shows from 2019 recently and it seems the trend is not gonna break this week. We decided that we'd double down on the heavy, dirty misery of Yacøpsæ and revisit our episode on Pig Destroyer. Y'know, a proper grindcore band.על ידי Bleav + Unsung Podcast

7M ago1:29:39

1:29:39

It's time to get really grindy and real with the band's more recent material, which is very fast, brutal and dark. It's a bracing but also fun. This band have a lot of songs but it's all quite short, so you can really batter through their discography in short order. Joe also gives us some of his thoughts on the band and then we get to the nexus.…

1:02:37

There's a fair chance you haven't heard of Yacøpsæ before unless you're very much in tune with DIY grind/powerviolence. One of the things we started this podcast to do was to shine a light on great bands were think are truly unsung. This band are one such example of that. They're very underground, and are very, very, very brutal. In part one we tal…
