To commemorate the tenth anniversary of Lost In The Dream, The War On Drugs put together a special long-form episode of their Super High Quality Podcast to tell the behind-the-scenes story of how the record was made. Between sessions in Hoboken and North Carolina, Adam Granduciel worked regularly with engineer Jeff Zeigler in Philly adding “paint” to a collection of songs that would be widely hailed as the band’s first masterpiece on its release in March 2014. As the band struggled against the repetition and inevitable distractions of working close to home with local friends and collaborators, as the recordings took shape, Adam was simultaneously struggling with the unpredictability of his own mental health. In candid conversations with the key players, and using previously unheard early mixes and demos, we’ll follow the work in progress from the first sessions in early 2013 through the late summer and early fall when the songs took their final form during mixing. We’ll also ride shotgun with Adam on his journey home from the mastering studio to the shoulder of I-95 in a fitting conclusion to the making of Lost In The Dream.
“One of 2014's Truly great records. The perfect American road trip” - NME
“The War On Drugs make archetypal road trip music. Shimmering, steady, gritty as pavement and open as the sky.” - Rolling Stone
Host: Dominic East
Guests: Adam Granduciel, Dave Hartley, Robbie Bennett, Charlie Hall, Dusdin Condren

Join Tom Davies and Manish Agarwal in an artist interview with Kid Millions and Bobby Matador from the band that stands to be a beacon of Jagjaguwar's history - Oneida. Turn the clocks back to 1999 to listen through the vast and (generally) celebrated discography, featuring clips from albums Enemy Hogs, Come on Everybody Lets Rock, Anthem of the Moon, Each One Teach One, Secret Wars, The Wedding, Happy New Year, Rated O, Romance, and most recently Success. Get immersed in a band that reconsidered sonic space on a gong tour, wrote a song featured on The Onion as a part of a homework assignment, and created the largest music box in the East Coast (or did they?). In short - never turn away from any idea stupid or clever, or for that matter a gong sample!

Join hosts Tom Davies and Secretly Group's Director of A&R, Ophir Admony in a return to chat with Numero Group's record label founders Ken Shipley and Rob Sevier about the exploration into the reissues of the 80's and 90's Post Hardcore, Emo, and Punk records. Start with Ken and Rob's idea to use their formula of record reissues to move away from their previous unilateral focus of Disco, Soul, and Gospel of the 60s and 70s as they found trust among artist scenes that left them inspired in their youth. Stay through stories about the decades-long chase of working with records they believed a new generation of fans was ready to discover. The episode explores the label owner's experiences unraveling the sonic singularities of groups such as Duster, Unwound, Everyone Asked About You, Karate, Rex, Tsunami, Bedhead, Codeine, 90 Day Men, The Hated and Chisel. The saying is true, Numero Group can be anything - and Numero Group is everything!

This series is narrated by the author, a friend of the band, and executive producer of the DeYarmond Edison official boxset 'Epoch', Grayson Haver Currin. This episode starts us off with DeYarmond Edison's move to Raleigh, North Carolina, a town with a buzzing music scene including the likes of The Rosebuds, Bowerbirds, and Ticonderoga. Hear the stories of the beginning of The Bickett Gallery Residency that at points was described as a "spiraling through concentric circles of disorder pushing the standard until it indeed almost broke". Joe brought in themes of improvisation learned at Bennington College, Phil taught the band Delta Blues and strings, Brad played with the idea of 20th-century ambient sounds in the style of Steve Reich's composition, and Justin challenged everyone's vocal capacity - including his own.

2009 would prove a pivotal year in Jason Molina’s life, a turning point that would lead to his tragic death only a few, short years later. But as he embarked on a batch of solo studio sessions in London that January––the sessions that would become Eight Gates––it would have been nearly impossible to imagine that they would be his last.
-
Jason Molina’s friends and collaborators were well versed in his penchant for tall tales and his use of “truthlets”––benign fibs––in the service of a good story. But as Molina’s problems with alcohol began to flare, the lines between truth and fiction seemed to grow increasingly blurry.
-
Songs: Ohia and Magnolia Electric Co. frontman Jason Molina was living in London when writer Justin Taylor caught up with him for an interview in 2010. This previously unreleased audio finds Molina in good spirits, discussing life in London, and provides a rare glimpse of his gregarious, often talebearing personality––one perhaps at odds with his darker musical persona.
