Episode 30: Wolf Parade's Apologies to the Queen Mary

Sad Dad Radio Hour

Today, the guys are "shining a light" on one of critics' favorite indie rock albums to come out of the early aughts with Wolf Parade’s studio debut-- Apologies to the Queen Mary. Released in 2005 on Sub-Pop records, and produced by none other than Modest Mouse’s own Isaac Brock--the Victoria, B.C. band crafts a sonic ruckus that summons a fusion of indie pop and prog. rock. In fact, in the words of Sub-Pop’s own press release, they make “music that sounded like burnt toast, or like two pinball machines in a slow motion bareback horserace." So, sit back, relax, and enjoy.
