This week: new albums from Rot TV, St Paul & the Broken Bones and the Wiggles (and friends). Also: I get that reference, uninspiral carpets, recording live to potato, far-too-early long list chat, UB40xAB3, get (rid of) Carter, why does this exist, Mike Love’s Beach Boys, Wurzels erasure, maintaining one bit for 30 years, Don Spencer > Don Burke, straight outta Radar, gold watches and total recall. 

Next week: new Mysterines and Hoodoo Gurus, and near-new Durand Jones & The Indications with Aaron Frazer. Those and previous weeks’ review albums can be found on our album review playlist on Spotify. Everything we listened to last year is in our 2021 review archive, along with our 2021 tripping balls mixtape featuring our favourite tracks from new albums we reviewed last year (2022 version coming once we listen to enough stuff to start a mixtape.) The full list of all the albums we've ever featured on the show (including our top 5s from previous years) and Beeso's playlist for his boys are also available elsewhere on the internet. BALLS and tripping balls are available on their own RSS feeds, as well as being found together on Omny Studio, Spotify and Apple t (feel free to subscribe, rate and review) - and we welcome your reckons via Twitter, Facebook and email.
