Join Courtney and Shane as they peel back the layers of reality and dive deep down into “Going Up”, the first song on the first album from, you guessed it, Echo & the Bunnymen. An interrogation of Ian’s lyrics leads to investigations into quantum physics, the etymology of the words “ain’t” and “thou”, the Truman Show, William Blake, Dr. Who, life, the universe, and everything. They discuss the influence of the band Love and Probe Records, the epicenter of Liverpool’s musical zeitgeist. (Thank you Hitoma Drone and Andrew Male!) And they learn about Cosmic Scouse. Finally, Shane offers a musical/harmonic/theoretical analysis of the guitar and bass parts. Let’s get the hell outta here!

Episode 23 - Echoing the Bunnymen with Peter Allen
These are strange times. But, fear not, we are here to bring you our finest episode to date! We interview Bunnymen merch guy, zine writer, website manager, fan mail responder, roommate, apostle, and all around insider, mister Peter Allen! He has been with them since the beginning and still is! Join us as we pull back the curtain on the inner workings of the band, and hear personal anecdotal stories, demystifications, and tales of high adventure right from the source! A coherent and kind soul who helps us make sense of the mystical world of the Bunnymen, we are so grateful to have Peter as our guest and to share his insights with you. Not to be missed!
