Every quote links to the moment in the episode."I think that Matt's lyrics on this record are genius. He paints such a vivid picture in his songwriting and I love this record so much. I think the music is nigh on perfect to be honest."Watch this moment
"Sex Swing with Type 2... they are absolutely wonderful, kind of jazz rock hybrid, just very abrasive and wonderful."Watch this moment
"they're a band from bristol, Spectres, and they have re-recorded this album twice to get it absolutely spot-on and I think it really shows. Everything about this record is just so visceral and stunning."Watch this moment
"it's honestly one of the most wonderfully chaotic beautiful cacophony of sound that I've heard in a long time... check them out they're a great band if you're into your noisy post punk."Watch this moment
"Yeah, this, if you like abrasive techno, then this is the two-piece for you. I think they supported us at Alexandra Palace in December and it was a great thing to put on some nosebleed techno."Watch this moment
"I think some of my earliest memories of music was my mum playing Tears for Fears when I was growing up, and I have absolutely loved this band since I was a small child."Watch this moment
