This week: reviewing new albums from Gentleman’s Dub Club and Grande Royale, and revisiting The Fratellis’ debut from 2006. Also this week: poorly rated openers, who’s got next, hammock selection trials, being screamed at by hairy Scandinavians, Chuck Berry > Buckcherry, narrator: it was actually seven minutes, character portraits, Scottish twitter, caustic monkeys, Patton recognition, ferocious bells, ‘indie’ isn’t intended to mean ‘independently wealthy’, blaming the algorithm, you can’t spell ‘ambient’ without Ambien, Spearfishing Confidential, 2015 Balls After Dark spec drunken commentary, OG collabs, Beeso gets back into food writing, the death of blogs and the joys of having a partner who doesn’t read your tweets. Next week: new stuff from Tomahawk, CIVIC and GHLOW. Recent new review albums are in our album review playlist on Spotify, which also has our 2021 tripping balls mixtape featuring our favourite tracks from new albums we’ve reviewed this year. The full list of all the albums we've ever featured on the show and Beeso's playlist for his boys are also available elsewhere on the internet. BALLS and tripping balls are available on their own RSS feeds, as well as being found together on Omny Studio,Spotify and Apple Podcasts (feel free to subscribe, rate and review) - and we welcome your reckons via Twitter, Facebook and email.
