#152 - Anthony's Birthday Extravaganza!

Remember the days when you would sit around with your friends and play records for each other? Well, that's what we do on this week's Modern Musicology! To celebrate Anthony's 38th birthday, he shares with us 20 songs that he loves and gets our reaction to them. Anthony's tastes range from pop to metal, from prog to rap, with some kitsch and silliness along the way. We'll hear songs by bands that you'd expect from Anthony, like Marillion, Porcupine Tree, and Marina, but there's also some unexpected things like White Lies, The Church of the Cosmic Skull, Sopor Aeternus, and even Public Enemy, plus a lot more. We definitely had a great time doing our deep dive into Anthony's collection!

To listen in full to the songs that Anthony has selected for us, you can follow along on this Spotify playlist. If you like any of these songs and want to hear more, there's a second playlist with some additional recommendations.
