Podcast #9

We had to temporarily shelve our podcast series in order to get the new website up and running but I'm pleased to announce that it's back and here to stay. This is the ninth No Ripcord podcast - our first since October 2007 - and it provides a showcase of some of the finest music of the last six months.

Many of the artists involved are household names (at least in the world of indie music) but I ask you pay extra special attention to tracks 4 and 5, from Watoo Watoo and Penny Century respectively. Two of the flagship artists from the fabulous Letterbox Records roster, I think they're both rather special indie-pop acts and I hope you agree.
