Noise Floor

We're a little bit baffled and a little bit intrigued by Under the Blacklight, Rilo Kiley's uneven swan song (for now?). As we finish our series on the band, we get into producer choices, a wealth of B-sides, and finally rank the discography.

Rilo Kiley made the jump to a major label for More Adventurous, but we're still very much an independent podcast. Fortunately, that won't stop us from diving into this masterclass of songwriting and production.

We're back to our Rilo Kiley series with The Execution of All Things, an album of deeply personal self-exploration and spectacular guitar lines.

We're taking a break from our Rilo Kiley series to look back on 2024 and count down our favorite albums of the year.

Our Rilo Kiley series continues with their first proper full-length, Take Offs and Landings. We go deep on the brilliance of "Pictures of Success," get distracted by Explosions In the Sky album artwork, and suggest additions to Matt's emo trumpet playlist. In an unlikely turn of events, Troy even praises a Blake song.

Can we do the Frug? Can we do the Robocop? We certainly can’t do the Smurf. But we can talk about Rilo Kiley’s early years, their self-titled EP (also known as The Initial Friend), and whether Troy is related to Blake Sennett.

We're taking a little break between series to discuss the (to date) short discography of Boygenius. Join us for supergroup history, celebrity replacement conspiracy theories, and a lot of great music.

We’re finishing up our Thursday series with No Devolución and its striking balance of chaos and beauty. Then we dig into the band's breakup, subsequent reunion, their first new music in over a decade. Finally, we share our discography rankings and Troy unboxes some merch.

After two major label releases and plenty of music industry disillusion, Thursday once again became free agents in 2007 and entered their most prolific era. We're digging into a slew of small releases and, of course, the vital and visceral Common Existence.

We're at the turning point of Thursday's career, so we're talking leaked demos, experimental left turns, and Dave Fridmann's controversial production and mix on A City By the Light Divided.
