I Is For Inc. No World
*Originally released December 12th 2016*
Straight from LA, Steve and Doug chat about R&B act Inc. No World, formerly known as inc. and also formerly known as Teen Inc. The fellows also talk about 2016 continuing to embrace the reaper, the return of the Philosopher Kings, and why Pitchfork reviews can be a little frustrating.
Music featured this week:
Black Wings - No World
Heart Crimes - 3 [EP]
The Wheel - As Light As Light
Angel - No World
2:34 - This is the music video for "Are You Lost In The World Like Me?" and you may recognize it as having been turned into a meme criticizing media consumption through electronics, although the music is usually changed up with some depressing instrumental. Unfortunately, this meme-edit mostly removes the major drive of the song, which is Moby's anger towards the Republican party and the rise of Donald Trump.
4:32 - We actually DID wind up doing that episode, so check out M Is For Moby!
5:41 - You can hear that episode here: P Is For The Philosopher Kings & Prozzäk
14:41 - Moby talks about his name being misunderstood as Moby Go in his memoir Porcelain
15:53 - Here's Pitchfork's review of No World where they can't help but name drop other acts, and their earlier review of the 3 EP
37:14 - Inc. No World's video for "The Place" - did you guys get your permits for this? Also their video for "Black Wings" is pretty nice
55:53 - It was Steve's cat Mira
