Music Weekly - featuring British Sea Power


These men are our guests. Treat them kindly

Hallo everybody and welcome back to the podcast, your first stop for indie bands' opinions on offshore electricity generation!

Yes, we ask British Sea Power about British sea power. But we also ask this week's special guests a lot more in a refreshing and fun interview with the band whose new album has been greatly anticipated, and lives up to expectations (don't take our word for it, take Alexis Petridis's).

Rosie's off in Mali doing some special research into lolling about in the sun and, also, compiling a package from the Festival au Desert which you'll be able to hear next week. Before she left, though, she spoke to Emily Eavis about plans for this year's Glastonbury Festival (hear Emily stonewall all questions about headliners in a way her dad appears unable to match).

In Rosie's stead, Laura Barton joins Paul and the pod's favourite Canadian, Kelly Nestruck, to talk over the latest releases from Britney, the Maccabees and Lightspeed Champion in Singles Club. We've also got all the usual shout-outs and all of that.

Let us know what you think - of the pod, of British Sea Power, and all of this week's dongles.
