Stephen Malkmus & the Jicks: 141 - 2014

141
20140319, 89.3 Current (radio)
Chartjunk

As the US tour progressed, a couple of radio sessions were booked in. At 89.3 Current they rip through 'Chartjunk'. The sound is blurry, the pace is roaddog fast, the distortion gets ever more frayed at the edges, the backing vocals get more breathless. It's a good representation of mid-tour bloody mindedness. But no match for the january 2014 BBC 6 Music version. Did they play more songs?
