The A to X of Alternative Music with Steve Taylor (28/10/2025)

The show this week inducts Brum and West Midlands legends The Circles, The Colourfield, Julian Cope and The Cravats. Timecheck from October 2006 features album tracks from Beach House, The Decemberists and Joanna Newsom, and there is a special focus on Alex Chilton for Three Minute Heroes. You will hear new music from Chalk, The Man The Myth The Meatslab, Sudan Archives, Nick Mulvey and Anna Calvi with Perfume Genius. There's Cigarettes After Sex covering The Doors plus rarely heard alternative classics from The Moffs, The Very Things and I play you the scariest recording ever made by Throbbing Gristle (IMHO).
