Christmas 2014


Here at The Way Out, we tend to mark the major holidays with speciality broadcasts that highlight some of the more unique and esoteric seasonal music available. And like with our annual Halloween show, we attempt to never repeat ourselves, always presenting new artists and/or songs. (Check out our Christmas show from last year.)

The Creation Records Show


Here at The Way Out, we're still basking in the warm glow of Slowdive's brilliant return earlier this year. And then this week, Swervedriver announced that they'd be touring the U.S. (including a stop in our very own Madison, WI) and releasing a new album next year, their first since 1998. That was Monday. Then, on Tuesday, the really big news hit: rumor started circulating online that Ride would be reforming in 2015. Within a day, the rumor was confirmed as true, and Ride announced 9 shows next May and June, including only two North American appearances in New York and Toronto. In honor of all this much-welcome news, we decided to dedicate this week's show entirely to the Creation Records label - the home to Ride, Swervedriver, Slowdive, and so many other great 1980s and 1990s U.K. shoegaze and indie-pop bands. 

Here's the playlist for our Saturday, November 12, 2014, broadcast:

Slowdive - "Sing"
Ride - "Polar Bear"
My Bloody Valentine - "Drive It All Over Me"
The Telescopes - "Precious Little"
Swervedriver - "Sunset"
Adorable - "Favourite Fallen Idol"
The House of Love - "Road"
Teenage Fanclub - "Star Sign"
Biff Bang Pow! - "Someone Stole My Wheels"
Felt - "Down But Not Yet Out"
The Times - "Dada Won't Buy Me a Bauhaus"
Razorcuts - "I'll Still Be There"
Ride - "Like a Daydream"

Destroy All Music, Part 3 (Early U.S. Punk & Hardcore)


Earlier this year, we kicked off a mini-series called Destroy All Music, which is dedicated to early U.S. punk and hardcore music (some from the late 1970s, but mostly from the 1980s). The recurring series' primary focus is on more lesser-known and obscure artists from the era (i.e., no Black Flag, Minor Threat, Bad Brains, Germs, Dead Kennedys, et al). We also strive for no duplication across shows, meaning each set features a completely different list of bands/artists. Part 1 was broadcast back in January, followed by Part 2 in April and a spin-off Youth Crew Hardcore set, also in April.

Although our attention has been focused elsewhere in recent months, we've steadily been putting aside songs for future installments of Destroy All Music. In fact, we have enough music mapped out for at least another two hour-long playlists, not including this week's third installment. So, keep your ears open for more Destroy All Music in the coming months. In the meantime, here's the playlist for Part 3 of Destroy All Music, which was broadcast on Saturday, November 8, 2014:

Agent Orange - "Bloodstains"
7 Seconds - "Here's Your Warning"
Reagan Youth - "Reagan Youth"
D.I. - "Reagan Der Fuhrer"
M.D.C. - "John Wayne Was a Nazi"

Born Against - "Resist Control"

Afflicted - "Here Come the Cops"

Gang Green - "Kill a Commie"
Toxic Reasons - "War Hero"
Naked Raygun - "Surf Combat"
Bl'ast! - "Surf & Destroy"
The Vandals - "I'm a Fly"
