Hey folks, Random Old Records Podcast is still here after thirteen years. Still using other people's words to tell my own story. Still listening to all of the music to find the gems. Still wearing a mask, still not leaving my house. I must be doing something right, because EPISODE #95 is one of the best things I've ever done!
This time around, you'll hear lots of acoustic guitars and big harmonies. You'll hear si...

You'll hear everything from hardcore punk classics to modern twists on punk to blissed-out pop to stomping grunge-era guitar noise to jangle to soul and everything ...

OK, so 2021 started and I somehow became obsessed with 90s punk rock again. It's pretty intense, probably the most obsessed I've been since well, the 90s. EPISODE #91 of Random Old Records is filled with classics and sleepers from the last decade of the 20th century, plus a whole lot more.
You'll hear Bikini Kill, Tilt, Propagandhi, the Fastbacks, and Pennywise. You'll also hear garage rock and psychedelic classi...

Right under the wire, here's one more podcast for this blessed and cursed year of 2020. EPISODE #90 of Random Old Records is mostly new jams this time, with a few old favorites sprinkled in here and there. It goes all over the place! If you're into snapping electronic percussion, unexpected sax solos, uninhibited crooning, pronounced accents, and way too many power chords, this is the episode for you!

Like a lot of people, I haven't left my house much for the last seven months. I've spent a lot of time with headphones on, trying to find the dreamiest music possible to escape into and pass the time. EPISODE #88 is crammed full of distorted guitars, piercing synths, vocal histrionics, and meditations on lives both small and large.

So I've been mostly housebound for the last four months with plenty of free time. Luckily, while most of life has been on pause, the torrent of incredible music continues unchecked.

If you've been listening to Random Old Records for awhile, you'll know that weather and the seasons are one of the primary inspirations behind the music on the show. Well it's hot and hazy here in Ohio, so naturally EPISODE #84 is laid back and easy going to help beat back the sweat and the steam of summer in the city.
