The 'Meet Me In The Bathroom' Documentary + Phoenix's 'Alpha Zulu'

New York City in the early aughts became a hotbed for indie artists when bands like The Strokes, Interpol, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and more suddenly ignited a new era of indie rock. On this week's Indiecast episode, hosts Steven Hyden and Ian Cohen revisit that nostalgia-inducing era by sharing their thoughts on the new Meet Me In The Bathroom documentary, which uncovers footage from the '00s NYC music scene (26:18). Plus, they review a new album by another early aughts band, Phoenix, who just dropped their first LP in five years, Alpha Zulu (49:23).

When it comes to music news this week, the biggest story comes from... Taco Bell? The fast food chain tapped Turnstile to use one of their songs in a commercial, prompting Steven and Ian to wonder if Taco Bell handing out cash to indie bands can mend the touring industry (8:52). Plus, Indiecast talks Elon Musk's Twitter takeover and whether or not they'll decide to shell out $8 a month to keep their verification (:25).

In this week's Recommendation Corner (59:51), Ian shouts out the Canadian band Arm’s Length and their new album Never Before Seen, Never Again Found, which hearkens back to peak 2013-era Tumblr. Meanwhile, Steven recommends Bob Dylan’s Philosophy Of Modern Song, which is the musician's first book of new writing since 2004.
