MEMORIALS talk new album, vintage gear, touring with Stereolab, more

This week we're talking MEMORIALS, the duo of Verity Susman from Electrelane and Matthew Simms of It Hugs Back and Wire. Their excellent second album is titled All Clouds Bring Not Rain and is a technicolor psychedelic pop extravaganza that ranges from baroque folk to krautrock to Doors and Pink Floyd-style wig-outs and many points in between.

Verity and Matthew discuss how this album differs from their debut, Memorial Waterslides, and why they went to remote Southwestern France to make part of it. We also talk about the duo's origins, the wide array of unusual instruments used on the album, translating their often complex studio arrangements to their duo live setup, touring with Stereolab, their upcoming spring tour, the value of playing loud, Simms' production work, what came of pandemic Electrelane "reunion," five records they think everyone should own and more.
