Music Weekly: The Invisible and the Whitest Boy Alive

Another week, another podtastic product to feast your eardrums on. This week, guardian.co.uk/music editor Tim Jonze talks to future-pop mavericks the Invisible about the debut album they built out of guitars, squeaky doors and barking dogs. They hang around in the pod studio to play a song for us as well – turning an office chair into a makeshift drumkit in the process.

Paul MacInnes earns his salary this week chatting to the Whitest Boy Alive, aka Erlend Øye, formerly of twee poppers Kings of Convenience. Paul also waxes lyrical about the joys of hip-hop duo Nice and Smooth in the feature that not only has no name, but will probably never have one either.

Next, it's time to say ":(". Rosie Swash is off ill this week, so it's an all-male Singles Club, as Paul and Tim are joined by guardian.co.uk's culture editor Alex Needham. They argue over the merits of KIG's Head, Shoulders, Kneez and Toez, UGK's Da Game Been Good To Me and a forthcoming album track from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs entitled Heads Will Roll. Should Karen O's bunch have 'gone dance'? Tune in to find out. And when you're done, let us know what you think in the handy comments section below.
