With Hidden, These New Puritans have made what will surely be regarded as one of 2010's best albums. Combining visceral art-rock with ambitious orchestration, it's a brave and challenging record that begs the question: "How the hell are you going to play it live?" The band's Jack Barnett drops in to answer exactly that question and also to talk to Alexis Petridis about rock'n'roll tuba players and being snubbed by the Mercury prize panel.
Next up on the show is Singles Club, in which Alexis is joined by Rosie Swash and Alex Needham. They sink their critical teeth into Salem's King Night, Idiot Glee's Mine Is All Packed Up and Owen Pallett's Scandal at the Parkade.
To finish things off, Alexis (it truly is a Petridis special this week) meets up with disco don Leo Zero – the man behind a zillion re-edits.
And that, as they say, is that. To extend the fun times, do follow us on Twitter or friend us on Facebook. Cheerio!
