This week we're tying up some loose ends by discussing More, the reunion album by Pulp. It's been over five years since Mike and Alex covered every single album by Pulp (back on episode 44) so they definitely weren't expecting an album full of brand new material. Mike came out of that episode a fan while Alex did not. However, this album just shook things up and now they're flipped on the matter.

This week we discuss Jarvis Cocker’s Pulp. If Austin Powers became a real life person and started playing in a Britpop band, that band would probably be Pulp. They started out as an unpredictable acid house/disco/new wave hybrid, then evolved into a high energy pop band throughout the 90s. There’s a lot of fighting between Alex and Mike on this one—way more than they were expecting. Whose side do you take?
Closing track: “Underwear” from Different Class (1995)
