On this week’s show: Aussie guitar rock of all stripes from Melbourne (Eggy, Garage Sale) to Windang (Hockey Dad). Indie pop from Slovenia (Rush to Relax) to Brazil (Fish Magic). New (and newly reissued) indie from across the UK, from Wales (The Bug Club) to Scotland (This Poison!) to England (Big Joanie, Maripool, Holiday Ghosts). And a Galaxie 500 cover from one of my favorite 90s New York indie rock bands (Versus).
