Storming your speakers like the first time you heard Banagarang through a Sony Ericsson on the backseat of a bus in 2012, it's the second epsiode of New Noise!

This time Jack and Devin get stuck into two whole Skrillex records in the year of our Lord, 2023; A new Gorillaz record that excites one of them a lot more than the other; UK post-punkers Shame's exciting new LP; an intense doom/sludge record by pummelers Big|Brave, and to prove that they both have to suffer for their art - Godsmack's bible thumping, flag waving, tortured whining of an LP: 'Lighting Up The Sky'.

They listen, so you don't have to...

Fashionably late, we present the first *real* episode of New Noise, covering the recent releases that Devin & Jack thought were worthy of chatting about. This week, opinions vary on big comeback albums (Paramore), cutting edge R&B (Kelela), profoundly onliner maximalist shoegaze (Parannoul), and some degenerate metal (Ahab, Sanguisungboggaggga - [pretty sure that's how it's spelt...]).

Plus the usual honorouble mentions, weird tangents, and any music news we actually remember

Thanks for listening!

Jack and Devin take a belated look at their favourite releases from 2022. They talk for a long, long time. Bring snacks.
