Singles: The Used ft. Mark Hoppus - The Lighthouse

Columbia House Party ·

2020/05/15

We can be your lighthouse. Or can’t. Bert McCracken, The Used, and Mark Hoppus have left us a little unclear. The latest Columbia House Party “single” mini-episode takes a look at “The Lighthouse,” the most recent single off of The Used’s new album Heartwork. On paper, pairing The Used with their original producer and Hoppus should have been an easy victory. So why doesn’t it work as well as the rest of Heartwork?Come join the Patreon family for bonus episodes, mailbags, show notes and even more

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by NBA writer James Herbert (@outsidethenba) to discuss At The Drive-In’s 2000 album Relationship of Command.

Columbia House Party ·

2020/04/27

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy break down Modest Mouse’s 2004 breakthrough Good News for People Who Like Bad News. Unlike some of the other bands to perform at The Bait Shop, Modest Mouse were already quite well-established, but The OC rub and an enormous hit in Float On helped push them into the mainstream consciousness. That didn’t mean Good News was any less weird and fun, though. As we close out The OC Month, find out more about why a band

Columbia House Party ·

2020/04/13

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy break down The Walkmen’s 2004 album Bows + Arrows. As The OC Month continues, The Walkmen represent an interesting and often self-defeating secondary character in the indie rock boom and an unlikely Bait Shop performer. They’re also emblematic of the Meet Me In The Bathroom-era New York rock scene, dripping in cool while made up of the pieces of other, disbanded groups. Find out more about the enormity of The Rat,

We’re that band, Radiohead. In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by music and culture writer Josh Terry (@JoshhTerry) to break down Radiohead’s 2007 album In Rainbows.

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by basketball and culture writer Alex Wong (@steven_lebron, stevenlebron.com) to break down Lil Wayne’s 2008 smash hit, Tha Carter III. At the very peak of his power as the self-proclaimed Best Rapper Alive, Lil Wayne goes way outside of the usual rap album construct to push himself and the listener creatively. There are some misses as a result, but Wayne’s claim to be atop the game in that moment holds up
