Here’s the basics. The Bug Club just dropped one of my favorite albums of the year. It’s called On the Intricate Inner Workings of the System, and it’s out now via Sub Pop Records. Go buy it!

They lead off the show that includes fresh spins from Laura Jane Grace, Kali Uchis, Adrianne Lenker, Honeyglaze, Lady Blackbird and more. Plus, a focus on composer and multi-instrumentalist Leifur James and West Coast shoegaze overlords Somesurprises. 

Check the playlist below and listen to the episode for two weeks after it airs using the player above.
