Columbia House Party
Come one, come all, to this tragic affair, and subscribe here for the best music show in your podcast library. Hosted by Blake Murphy and Jake Goldsbie, Columbia House Party is your home for Riots and Black Parades, Cork Trees and Significant Others. At times it will showcase the very finest the music industry had to offer, often around the pop-punk and emo boom of the early-to-mid 2000s. At its worst, it will indulge in those forgotten records we all have lurking in our collection. All the while, it promises to provide the information, entertainment and self-deprecation you’ve come to expect from two of Toronto’s favourites. Welcome to our living mixtape.

Weezer's Failed Rock Opera
In this episode of Columbia House Party hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive into Weezer’s sophomore album, the cult classic and infamously divisive Pinkerton. A follow up to their wildly successful Blue album, Pinkerton came after a short hiatus that saw headman Rivers Cuomo undergo extensive surgery and commence studies at Harvard University. Disillusioned with his once-dream of being a rockstar, Cuomo had originally planned for Pinkerton to be a rock opera. Although that idea was abandoned, the album’s namesake was a character described as being not dissimilar to a touring rock star. Find out more about Cuomo’s struggles with the album, letters received by a particular Japanese fan and which big-name director the band turned down in this week’s podcast.

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Sarah MacDonald (@sarahsmacdonald, sarahsmacdonald.com), to discuss Phoebe Bridgers’ 2020 sophomore album Punisher. This is the show’s first crack at covering a new album without the benefit of at least some nostalgia, so it’s good the hosts had Sarah to guide them. Find out more about Bridgers’ songwriting process, the influence of gender and power dynamics in the industry and how her work connects, and why Bridgers has quickly become considered one of the elite modern songwriters on this week’s podcast.

The 2010s: Foxing — Nearer My God
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy get a little more modern with Foxing’s 2018 album Nearer My God. The second most-recent album the guys have explored, Nearer My God ranked atop Jake’s 2018 album rankings and near the top of his all-decade list. Find out more about Foxing’s growth across three albums, where there was drama around some bagpipes, and how the band so capably creates a space to sink into anxiety on this week’s podcast.

The 2010s: Lil Peep — Come Over When You're Sober, Pt. 1 (w/ Sasha Kalra)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Sasha Kalra (@sashakalra) to discuss Lil Peep’s 2017 album Come Over When You’re Sober, Pt. 1. While Lil Peep is admittedly outside of the podcast’s normal genre wheelhouse, his influences are so similar to the podcast’s and to the artists that the podcast covers that he represents a unique look into the out-of-genre effects of industry and cultural changes. Find out more about how Lil Peep earned a major following by sampling pop-punk and emo songs on Soundcloud, what the status of this subgenre is following Peep’s untimely passing, and what Jake thinks of his first taste of emo-rap on this week’s podcast.

The 2010s: Lorde — Melodrama (w/ Erin)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Erin to discuss Lorde’s 2017 sophomore album Melodrama. Melodrama being considered a pop album is accurate, but it paints Lorde in a way that sometimes seems to undersell her excellent as a songwriter. Find out more about her growth as a person and writer over the four year gap between albums, which Lorde song Jakes thinks is perfect, and why her eventual third album may be analyzed through a more appropriate lens on this week’s podcast.

The 2010s: Kacey Musgraves — Pageant Material
After garnering attention from her debut 'Same Trailer Different Park', the small-town-Texan continued her observationalist approach to song writing with Pageant Material. It was certainly a new challenge for both Blake and Jake, as the album leans country and it isn't exactly the 2000s emo we're all used to, but there are a lot of familiar connections to be found when digging around Kacey's upbringing, her mid-teen fashion choices and even her musical inspirations. It's one of our favourite episodes yet, and we hope you enjoy it!

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Katie Heindl (@wtevs) to discuss FEELINGS and the 2014 album Singles from Future Islands. It’s a bit more of a pop turn than usual for the hosts, but upon deeper listening, it fits right in with the CHP ethos. Find out more about how freestyle rapping played a role in Future Islands’ development, Katie’s emotional run-in with the lead singer, and whether Jake could dance on late-night TV on this week’s podcast.

The 2010s: Modern Baseball — Sports (w/ Jonah Birenbaum)
Play ball! In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are jointed by Jonah Birenbaum (@birenball) to discuss Modern Baseball's debut album, Sports. A little too on the nose to have a sad baseball writer discuss an emo band called Modern Baseball? We don't think so. Find out more about why neither the hosts nor guest can remember much from their formative MoBo concert experiences, why the band's lyrics resonated so well with the guys in their early-20s, and whether Blake tells Jake that The Region qualifies as "a town that said reckon all the time" on this week's podcast.

The 2010s: Travis Barker — Give The Drummer Some
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy realize it was time for them to Give The Drummer Some by diving deep on Travis Barker’s solo album of that name. Yes, Barker had a solo album. Yes, it kind of rules. No, rap-rock will never die. Find out more about Barker’s sad and arduous road to creating his solo project, the incredible list of hip-hop artists Barker finds to rap over his drums and synths, and what weird moment in rap the success of Barker’s partnership with one artist inspired on this week’s podcast.

The 2010s: Robyn — Body Talk
It won’t always be pop-punk and emo. In the latest episode of Columbia
House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive into one of the
decade’s best pop albums, Robyn’s Body Talk. Long after Robyn first broke
through outside of Sweden with Robyn is Here, Body Talk represented her
three-part return to the North American charts and consciousness. With two
elite singles – both firmly in the top 100 songs of the 2010s – and only
one or two small misses, it’s little surprise that Robyn could take eight
years before her next release and it still be highly anticipated. Find out
more about Robyn’s vision for her most ambitious undertaking, the unlikely
features on the album, and Body Talk’s place in the poptimism discussion on
this week’s podcast.

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy discuss Romance Is Boring, the 2010 album from Los Campesinos! Yes, it's a run of a lot of sports references sprinkled into your emo/indie-pop. You knew what you signed up for. Find out more about why Romance Is Boring is such an important transition album for the band, which track stands out as an influential piece of the 2010s emo revival, and how Los Campesinos! became the rare band listed among both hosts' favorites on this week's podcast.

The 2000s: Lil Wayne — Tha Carter III (w/ Alex Wong)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by basketball and culture writer Alex Wong (@steven_lebron, stevenlebron.com) to break down Lil Wayne’s 2008 smash hit, Tha Carter III. At the very peak of his power as the self-proclaimed Best Rapper Alive, Lil Wayne goes way outside of the usual rap album construct to push himself and the listener creatively. There are some misses as a result, but Wayne’s claim to be atop the game in that moment holds up well. Find out more about the long wait between Tha Carter II and III, Lil Wayne’s impact on a number of hip-hop subgenres, and how Lil Wayne provided a pathway for artists controlling their music in the online era on this week’s podcast.

We’re that band, Radiohead. In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by music and culture writer Josh Terry (@JoshhTerry) to break down Radiohead’s 2007 album In Rainbows. With a handful of interesting Radiohead options, the guys go the In Rainbows route out of deep appreciation, but maybe not because it’s their No. 1 Radiohead album. You, too, surely have a Radiohead album ranking take. Find out more about that choice, how Radiohead stayed ahead of the curve in a dynamic record industry environment in the mid-2000s, and why Scott Tenorman must die on this week’s podcast.

The 2000s: My Chemical Romance — The Black Parade
In the most-anticipated episode of Columbia House Party yet, Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive into My Chemical Romance’s ambitious rock opera The Black Parade. A follow-up to their breakthrough album Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge, The Black Parade takes the MCR aesthetic up several notches and leans into a dark, quirky, ultimately redemptive single-story arc about The Patient. The album was a much bigger commercial success than some may remember, leading to a great deal of conversation around emo culture and some disturbingly laughable claims from mainstream UK media. Find out more about Gerard Way’s intentions with the album, how fans rallied as a community around it, and what this moment in music helped accomplish for the discussion around mental health in this week’s podcast.

The 2000s: TV on the Radio — Return to Cookie Mountain
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy explore TV on the Radio’s Return to Cookie Mountain, what they feel is one of the best albums to come out of the early-2000s indie rock boom. So much so, in fact, that this episode invites the first discussion of a potential CHP Hall of Fame for one of TV on the Radio’s members. Find out more about the David Letterman performance that helped put them on the map, where they veer from otherwise similar Meet Me In The Bathroom-era acts, and just how a band comes to sound like…this…on this week’s podcast.

And also Brendon Urie.

The 2000s: Motion City Soundtrack — Commit This To Memory
Everything is alright! In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive into Motion City Soundtrack’s 2005 album Commit This to Memory. Not only did Commit This to Memory lock in a definitive, unmistakable sound that cut through the saturation of the genre for Motion City Soundtrack, it was also the first foray into production for blink-182’s Mark Hoppus. While the hosts agree this album isn’t necessarily Motion City’s strongest, it is certainly the most interesting and most important. Find out more about Justin Pierre’s personal battles throughout the writing process, Blake’s personal battles with losing a labret piercing at Warped Tour, and which MCS album the hosts think tops the discography on this week’s podcast.

The 2000s: Fall Out Boy — From Under the Cork Tree (w/ Andrew Zuber)
Sooner or later, Columbia House Party had to tackle 'The Only Album.' Hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Andrew Zuber of Sportsfeld to dissect the quintessential mid-2000s pop-punk album, Fall Out Boys’ From Under the Cork Tree. Dripping in sarcasm and self-deprecation, From Under the Cork Tree makes it’s sad, oft-unrequited lyrics more accessible with power-pop riffs, well-designed singles, and Patrick Stump’s underrated vocal chops. Fall Out Boy pivoted to more of an arena-rock sound not long after Cork Tree, which looks like an obvious and expected move looking back on 2005’s finest here in 2019. Find out more about Pete Wentz’s struggles during recording, the developing “pop-punk quadrant,” and the lasting impact of the album on this week’s podcast.

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Jeff Rosenstock (@jeffrosenstock) to discuss Rilo Kiley’s excellent 2004 album More Adventurous. Is there a cooler band than Rilo Kiley, and a cooler singer than Jenny Lewis? It’s hard to figure.. Find out more about which Rilo Kiley song Jeff had his first dance too, which Rilo Kiley song Jeff has covered, and why the guys think Rilo Kiley weren’t a bigger breakthrough success on this week’s podcast. And check out Jeff’s terrific album, NO DREAM, anywhere you get your music.

The 2000s: Say Anything — ...Is a Real Boy
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive into Say Anything’s 2004 pop-punk classic …Is a Real Boy (and, technically, their 2006 build-on …Was a Real Boy). It’s an album that stands out from its own scene upon review, somewhat ironically given the album’s heavy criticism of the scene itself. Find out more about the cost and benefit of Max Bemis’ sprawling creativity and perfectionism over the band’s life, how the hosts – and Bemis himself – deal with some of the less flattering lyrical content 16 years later, and how Say Anything produced the unlikeliest of emo love songs on this week’s podcast.

We are three Canadian aquarium drinkers. In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Steve Sladkowski, the guitarist from PUP, to discuss Wilco’s 2004 album, A Ghost is Born. The album that necessitated the addition of Nels Cline – first as a touring guitarist and later as a full-time member – A Ghost is Born sees Jeff Tweedy take a necessary leap as a guitarist while his songwriting is as on-point as always. Find out more about how Wilco influenced one of the best guitarists in the world today (Steve), just how rough things got for Tweedy in the 2000s, and which of Tweedy’s opening lines the guys love most on this week’s podcast.

Watch Out! In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Sam Sutherland (@SamSthrlnd) of the blink-155 podcast to talk about…not blink-182, surprisingly. Instead, the trio takes a deep look at alexisonfire’s sophomore 2004 album Watch Out! Sam’s choice of album surprised, but explained through the lens of that moment in Canadian music history, it was the right choice. Find out more about Sam’s encyclopaedic knowledge of the early-2000s Canadian punk scene, Dallas Green’s resume as an all-around good guy, and how alexisonfire broke through despite not feeling like a CanCon success story on paper on this week’s podcast.

Another Meet Me In The Bathroom-era breakthrough sees our hosts bring Sarah back because The Killers require a certain level of cool they can’t reach alone. That’s a long way to have come for some kids from Las Vegas sneaking in to UNLV to practice and record. Find out more about how The Killers came to be, how Brandon Flowers’ former band influenced his writing and The Killers’ unique sound, and which Hot Fuss track is the millennial Stairway To Heaven on this week’s podcast.

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy discuss Hawthorne Heights' 2004 album The Silence in Black and White. We almost said their debut album, which would only be kind-of true, as A Day In The Life changed their name and jumped to Victory Records for this successful next step. Find out more about why Ohio is for lovers, how Hawthorne Heights stand out as a dividing line between pop-punk eras, play a YouTube algorithm game with the guys, and more on this week's podcast.

The 2000s: Modest Mouse — Good News for People Who Love Bad News
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy break down Modest Mouse’s 2004 breakthrough Good News for People Who Like Bad News. Unlike some of the other bands to perform at The Bait Shop, Modest Mouse were already quite well-established, but The OC rub and an enormous hit in Float On helped push them into the mainstream consciousness. That didn’t mean Good News was any less weird and fun, though. Find out more about why a band like Modest Mouse would agree to a bit part on a teen pop-culture series, why our hosts lament their earlier Bukowski appreciation, and why you should revisit the band if Float On is your primary reference point on this week’s podcast.

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Densil McFarlane of The OBGMs (@theobgms) to discuss N.E.R.D.’s 2004 album Fly or Die. Obscured to some degree by the immense success of the group as producers (The Neptunes) and Pharrell Williams’ eventual solo work, N.E.R.D. is more than deserving of their own oxygen as a bridge between hip hop and rock. Find out more about the influence N.E.R.D. had on Denz, the irritating, if predictable, critical response to Fly or Die, and why the first two N.E.R.D. albums sound like they could have come out last year on this week’s podcast.

The 2000s: The Walkmen — Bows + Arrows
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy break down The Walkmen’s 2004 album Bows + Arrows. As The OC Month continues, The Walkmen represent an interesting and often self-defeating secondary character in the indie rock boom and an unlikely Bait Shop performer. They’re also emblematic of the Meet Me In The Bathroom-era New York rock scene, dripping in cool while made up of the pieces of other, disbanded groups. Find out more about the enormity of The Rat, the overall excellent use of music as a world-builder, character-developer, and story-teller in The OC, and which Canadian rock band one host initially confused The Walkmen with on this week’s podcast.

Find out more about what led to the dramatic shift in sound, how the rift between Mark Hoppus and Tom DeLonge continued and led to their eventual separation, and what made this era of blink the best live-show era of blink on this week's podcast.

The podcast will explore bands that performed at The Bait Shop on the hit show The OC, which served as a snapshot and elevator of the early-2000s indie rock scene. Find out more about Ben Gibbard’s workmanlike songwriting approach for Transatlanticism, what character Lauren compares Jake to a grown-up and divorced version of, and what teenage attachments the group has to Death Cab on this week’s podcast.

With sprinkles of Canadiana, a triumvirate of songs in iambic pentameter, and a track from the perspective of a cat, John K. Samson is at his absolute best on Reconstruction Site, the band’s 2003 album that directly inspired the next wave of emo-pop and many in the emo revival. Find out more about Samson’s love-hate relationship with Winnipeg, his quest to reclaim Neil Young’s honour, and where Jake ranks Samson among the greatest living song writers on this week’s podcast.

That mistake is one of two personal stories the hosts share on this one, the second of which is far more embarrassing. Find out more about Yellowcard’s path from the home of the Jaguars to L.A., how they incorporated violin so effectively into an otherwise standard pop-punk sound, and why the hosts think Yellowcard are the Paul George of early-2000s bands in this genre on this week’s podcast.

The 2000s: Avril Lavigne — Let Go
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, Jake and Blake travel back to Blake’s most heartbroken shifts at the Cambridge Home Hardware and fire up Avril Lavigne’s 2003 debut Let Go. Armed with four massive singles one-through-four on the album, Let Go was a tour de force at the time and feels no less significant in retrospect. Find out more about the changes in writing process (and partners) Lavigne went through to find her sound, how and why she was able to blur the lines between genres, and why Complicated still makes one host so damn sad on this week’s podcast.

The 2000s: Alkaline Trio — Good Mourning
A can of matches, a can of kerosene, a bad idea. In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy revisit what they agree to be the best Alkaline Trio album, 2003’s Good Mourning. Even with the podcast still in its relative infancy, this almost felt overdue – Jake and Blake began their friendship arguing about the ranking of Alkaline Trio albums on Twitter. Find out more about how challenging Good Mourning was for the band to write and record, how Blake channels Matt Skiba with some voice issues of his own, and the more contentious rankings of Alkaline Trio albums outside of the top two on this week’s podcast.

Other podcasts don’t love you like we love you. In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by culture writer Sarah MacDonald (sarahsmacdonald.com) to discuss the Yeah Yeah Yeah’s 2003 debut album Fever to Tell. Karen O features heavily in Lizzy Goodman’s Meet Me In The Bathroom, an exploration of the early-2000s New York rock scene, and for good reason: not only is she unspeakably cool, she is, as Sarah once wrote, indie rock’s beating heart. Find out more about the importance of Karen O as a female presence in the genre’s renaissance, Maps’ legacy as one of the best love songs of all-time, and why you can’t trust someone with a fauxhawk on this week’s podcast.

The 2000s: The Postal Service — Give Up
In this week's episode of Columbia House Party, Jake and Blake go deep on one of the most well-regarded side projects of the 2000s, Give Up from indie supergroup The Postal Service. With Dntel synths, Ben Gibbard’s vocals, and Jenny Lewis’, well, everything, Give Up withstands the test of time as something greater than a pit-stop before Death Cab for Cutie blew up. Find out more about how the recording process fed into the name, the weird concert performance that resulted, and why despite teases we never got another album from the trio on this week’s podcast.

The 2000s: Desaparecidos — Read Music/Speak Spanish
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive into Conor Oberst’s punk-rock side-project, Desaparecidos. Not unlike a wrestler’s excursion, Oberst took a brief aside from his ascension as a part of Bright Eyes and as the face (and bangs) of a genre to do something a little different before ultimately returning. Read Music/Speak Spanish is more political and far angrier than you may be used to with Oberst’s other projects, and while it wasn’t heralded at the time, it really works. Find out more about Oberst’s relationship with his hometown of Omaha, why he cared “way more” about Bright Eyes, and where this project ranks in the vast Oberst library on this week’s podcast.

The 2000s: Jimmy Eat World — Bleed American
Are you listening? In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive into Jimmy Eat World’s fourth album, the crossover success Bleed American. A follow up to Clarity, which is often debated as their best album, Bleed American shifted from an emo-oriented sound toward alt-rock, producing eminently recognizable singles thanks to accessibly simple lyrics and excellent power-pop guitar work. That Jimmy Eat World continued producing good albums – a lot of them – is almost lost in just how influential their earlier work was. Find out more about reception to The Middle, why Sweetness almost didn’t make the album, and how 9/11 comes up once again in this week’s podcast.

Breathing deeply, walking backwards. In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive back into one of the seminal works of not only the pop-punk explosion but of all of early-2000s pop culture, Blink-182’s Take Off Your Pants and Jacket. It was time for a blink episode, as a key moment in the podcast’s origin story involved our hosts quite lubricated on the first tour with Matt Skiba. Find out more about how the making of Take Off Your Pants and Jacket was the first fissure for Tom DeLonge and Mark Hoppus, whether it holds up better than Enema of the State or Dude Ranch, and what the best two-song pair on any blink album is on this week’s podcast.

That’s like a Canadian Heritage Minute, but it just plays every commercial break on Much Loud for eternity. Maybe a statue in Ajax, too. Find out more about how Sum 41 broke through outside of just the Canadian pop-punk scene to become emblematic of early-2000s culture, why their early work stands out even better in retrospect, and their unlikely turn to political nu-metal on this week’s podcast.

The '90s: Saves the Day — Through Being Cool (w/ Drew Fairservice)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Drew Fairservice (@DrewGROF) to discuss Saves the Day’s 1999 bridge album for the pop-punk scene, Through Being Cool. Drew might cringe at that term pop-punk given his – and Chris Conley’s – hardcore roots, but tracing from Lifetime to Fall Out Boy through Saves the Day is tidy work. Find out more about Drew’s experience seeing Saves the Day in the hardcore scene, how the band’s slow transition to pop-punk made waves for the bands that followed them, and why Red Jeans 3:16 says “my spleen is dropping from my pants” on this week’s podcast.

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by their first four-time guest, Sarah MacDonald (@sarahsmacdonald, sarahsmacdonald.com), to discuss Britney Spears' debut album ...Baby One More Time.

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy celebrate the podcast’s birthday by resetting the connection tree and starting anew for Year Two. To do so, they fire up Green Day’s 1997 album Nimrod, maybe not the best Green Day album but possibly the most important.

The '90s: Third Eye Blind
How many hits can you have and still be misremembered as a one-hit wonder?
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake
Murphy try to find out by diving into Third Eye Blind's self-titled album. The
successful debut produced five singles over the course of two years,
landing them on era-defining compilation albums and every late-90s and
early-00s coming-of-age soundtrack. Semi-Charmed Life may be the tune
people remember them for the most - and it's a great snapshot of what
remains a pretty definitive sound - but this album is deeper than you
remember. Find out more about the non-singles that had an influence outside
the genre, the alleged difficulties of working with Stephan Jenkins, and a
tough ride on the MuchMusic Countdown in this week’s podcast.

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy finally get around to an album Jake has been wanting to discuss since the podcast's inception, Harvey Danger's Where Have All The Merrymakers Gone? It is, the hosts hope, worth the wait, as both find Harvey Danger to be criminally under appreciated and miscast as a one-hit wonder. Find out more about the curse of Flagpole Sitta's success as a lead single, the band's openness about their process and reception, and whether Merrymakers holds up as well as the guys envisioned on this week’s podcast.

The '90s: Weezer — Pinkerton
In this episode of Columbia House Party hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive into Weezer’s sophomore album, the cult classic and infamously divisive Pinkerton. A follow up to their wildly successful Blue album, Pinkerton came after a short hiatus that saw headman Rivers Cuomo undergo extensive surgery and commence studies at Harvard University. Disillusioned with his once-dream of being a rockstar, Cuomo had originally planned for Pinkerton to be a rock opera. Although that idea was abandoned, the album’s namesake was a character described as being not dissimilar to a touring rock star. Find out more about Cuomo’s struggles with the album, letters received by a particular Japanese fan and which big-name director the band turned down in this week’s podcast.

They’re also joined briefly by Cassie Leigh Clancy (@cassleigh) to discuss the fashion side of Gwen Stefani’s legacy. Find out more about some of the controversy around Stefani’s more problematic choices in that regard, how Stefani became a major pop culture influence coming out of Tragic Kingdom, and how an in-band relationship made for a powerful, if awkward, songwriting process on this week’s podcast.

Not only is the album excellent, it’s credited with facilitating important change in the rock scene for the late-90s and beyond. Find out more about Alanis’ roots as a child star in Ottawa, why and how she changed her approach for Jagged Little Pill, and who we think You Oughta Know might be about on this week’s podcast.

The '90s: Sunny Day Real Estate — Diary
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy trace the so-called emo tree back up almost all the way to the top, exploring the definitive parent of the Midwest emo branch, Sunny Day Real Estate’s 1994 album Diary. It stands to reason that if you listen to this podcast, a lot of the bands you enjoy (and episodes we’ve done to date) were influenced by Diary, as SDRE genuinely helped move the genre forward. Find out more about why SDRE couldn’t sustain their success through some fault of their own, which of our hosts’ favourite bands today draw influence from Diary, and where the Foo Fighters come in on this week’s podcast.

Part two, as Robert Smith tells it, of a three-part trilogy that spans 18 years and eight of their 13 records, Disintegration is The Cure at their best, with Smith’s songwriting and vocals at their peak and the ambition of the overall musical environment pushing the album to a new height for the group.

Blink Month: Blink-182 - Take Off Your Pants and Jacket
Breathing deeply, walking backwards. In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive back into one of the seminal works of not only the pop-punk explosion but of all of early-2000s pop culture, Blink-182’s Take Off Your Pants and Jacket. It was time for a blink episode, as a key moment in the podcast’s origin story involved our hosts quite lubricated on the first tour with Matt Skiba. Find out more about how the making of Take Off Your Pants and Jacket was the first fissure for Tom DeLonge and Mark Hoppus, whether it holds up better than Enema of the State or Dude Ranch, and what the best two-song pair on any blink album is on this week’s podcast.

We are three Canadian aquarium drinkers. In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Steve Sladkowski, the guitarist from PUP, to discuss Wilco’s 2004 album, A Ghost is Born.

Find out more about how Wilco influenced one of the best guitarists in the world today (Steve), just how rough things got for Tweedy in the 2000s, and which of Tweedy’s opening lines the guys love most on this week’s podcast.

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Densil McFarlane of The OBGMs (@theobgms) to discuss N.E.R.D.’s 2004 album Fly or Die. Obscured to some degree by the immense success of the group as producers (The Neptunes) and Pharrell Williams’ eventual solo work, N.E.R.D. is more than deserving of their own oxygen as a bridge between hip hop and rock. Find out more about the influence N.E.R.D. had on Denz, the irritating, if predictable, critical response to Fly or Die, and why the first two N.E.R.D. albums sound like they could have come out last year on this week’s podcast.

Other podcasts don’t love you like we love you. In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by culture writer Sarah MacDonald (sarahsmacdonald.com) to discuss the Yeah Yeah Yeah’s 2003 debut album Fever to Tell. Karen O features heavily in Lizzy Goodman’s Meet Me In The Bathroom, an exploration of the early-2000s New York rock scene, and for good reason: not only is she unspeakably cool, she is, as Sarah once wrote, indie rock’s beating heart. Find out more about the importance of Karen O as a female presence in the genre’s renaissance, Maps’ legacy as one of the best love songs of all-time, and why you can’t trust someone with a fauxhawk on this week’s podcast.

Female Fronted: Avril Lavigne - Let Go
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, Jake and Blake travel back to Blake’s most heartbroken shifts at the Cambridge Home Hardware and fire up Avril Lavigne’s 2003 debut Let Go. Armed with four massive singles one-through-four on the album, Let Go was a tour de force at the time and feels no less significant in retrospect. Find out more about the changes in writing process (and partners) Lavigne went through to find her sound, how and why she was able to blur the lines between genres, and why Complicated still makes one host so damn sad on this week’s podcast.

Greatest Hits: Fall Out Boy - From Under the Cork Tree (2005)
For the month of July we're playing the hits! We turned to all our friends on Patreon and asked them to pick their favourite episodes of CHP - and they have spoken! Coming in first place, we think you'll enjoy hearing from the show's first every guest Andrew Zuber as the guys discuss Fall Out Boy's From Under the Cork Tree.

Sooner or later, Columbia House Party had to tackle 'The Only Album.' Hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Andrew Zuber of Sportsfeld to dissect the quintessential mid-2000s pop-punk album, Fall Out Boys’ From Under the Cork Tree. Dripping in sarcasm and self-deprecation, From Under the Cork Tree makes it’s sad, oft-unrequited lyrics more accessible with power-pop riffs, well-designed singles, and Patrick Stump’s underrated vocal chops. Fall Out Boy pivoted to more of an arena-rock sound not long after Cork Tree, which looks like an obvious and expected move looking back on 2005’s finest here in 2019. Find out more about Pete Wentz’s struggles during recording, the developing “pop-punk quadrant,” and the lasting impact of the album on this week’s podcast.

Greatest Hits: The Weakerthans - Reconstruction Site (2003)
For the month of July we're playing the hits! We turned to all our friends on Patreon and asked them to pick their favourite episodes of CHP - and they have spoken! Coming in second place, we are pleased to bring you Canada's own The Weakerthans and their 2003 album Reconstruction Site.

Jake and Blake take you on a walk through the first snowfall of winter to the soundtrack of The Weakerthans. With sprinkles of Canadiana, a triumvirate of songs in iambic pentameter, and a track from the perspective of a cat, John K. Samson is at his absolute best on Reconstruction Site, the band’s 2003 album that directly inspired the next wave of emo-pop and many in the emo revival. Find out more about Samson’s love-hate relationship with Winnipeg, his quest to reclaim Neil Young’s honour, and where Jake ranks Samson among the greatest living song writers on this week’s podcast.

Greatest Hits: My Chemical Romance - The Black Parade (2006)
For the month of July we're playing the hits! We turned to all our friends on Patreon and asked them to pick their favourite episodes of CHP - and they have spoken! Coming in third place, we hope you enjoy listening through My Chemical Romance's The Black Parade.

In the most-anticipated episode of Columbia House Party yet, Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive into My Chemical Romance’s ambitious rock opera The Black Parade. A follow-up to their breakthrough album Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge, The Black Parade takes the MCR aesthetic up several notches and leans into a dark, quirky, ultimately redemptive single-story arc about The Patient. The album was a much bigger commercial success than some may remember, leading to a great deal of conversation around emo culture and some disturbingly laughable claims from mainstream UK media. Find out more about Gerard Way’s intentions with the album, how fans rallied as a community around it, and what this moment in music helped accomplish for the discussion around mental health in this week’s podcast.

Kacey Musgraves - Pageant Material (2015)
After garnering attention from her debut 'Same Trailer Different Park', the small-town-Texan continued her observationalist approach to song writing with Pageant Material. It was certainly a new challenge for both Blake and Jake, as the album leans country and it isn't exactly the 2000s emo we're all used to, but there are a lot of familiar connections to be found when digging around Kacey's upbringing, her mid-teen fashion choices and even her musical inspirations. It's one of our favourite episodes yet, and we hope you enjoy it!

Modern Baseball - Sports (2012)
Play ball! In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are jointed by Jonah Birenbaum (@birenball) to discuss Modern Baseball's debut album, Sports. A little too on the nose to have a sad baseball writer discuss an emo band called Modern Baseball? We don't think so. Find out more about why neither the hosts nor guest can remember much from their formative MoBo concert experiences, why the band's lyrics resonated so well with the guys in their early-20s, and whether Blake tells Jake that The Region qualifies as "a town that said reckon all the time" on this week's podcast.

Harvey Danger - Where Have All The Merrymakers Gone? (1997)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy finally get around to an album Jake has been wanting to discuss since the podcast's inception, Harvey Danger's Where Have All The Merrymakers Gone? It is, the hosts hope, worth the wait, as both find Harvey Danger to be criminally under appreciated and miscast as a one-hit wonder. Find out more about the curse of Flagpole Sitta's success as a lead single, the band's openness about their process and reception, and whether Merrymakers holds up as well as the guys envisioned on this week’s podcast.

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by their first four-time guest, Sarah MacDonald (@sarahsmacdonald, sarahsmacdonald.com), to discuss Britney Spears' debut album ...Baby One More Time. That's probably enough appearances to just call Sarah a co-host, right? Cassie Leigh Clancy (@cassleigh, co-host of the @restingonpod podcast) also joins for a segment to talk jean suits and other fashion. Find out more about why Sarah's Britney interest is strong enough for her to be back dealing with Jake and Blake, what big Britney single one host has a curious blank spot for, and how Y2K fashion is a part of the Britney cultural imprint on this week’s podcast.

B-Sides: Non-Traditional Christmas Songs
It's coming on Christmas, they're cutting down trees, putting up reindeer and singing songs of joy and peace... Oh I wish I had a bonus Christmas episode of Columbia House Party!

Howdy friends, happy holidays! For the very first Patreon exclusive Blake and Jake thought they'd channel the festive spirit and bring you a collection of their favourite non-traditional Christmas songs. There might not be any punk covers of Jingle Bells or Silent Night, but we think they dug up some other pretty slappin' tracks.

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Steve Sladkowski (@sladkow) of PUP (@puptheband) to discuss one of the most important albums of all time, The Clash's London Calling. It wasn't technically Steve's first album purchase, but it's close enough for the purposes of this month's arc. Find out more about The Clash's slower path to a monstrous third-album success, how London Calling pulled from dozens of sounds to influence dozens more, and why it's so necessary to consume art with an appreciation of the context it was created within on this week's podcast.

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by the self-proclaimed world's foremost analyst of nu metal, John Cullen (@cullenthecomic), to discuss the first album Jake ever purchased with his own money: Limp Bizkit's Significant Other. Consider this a Limp Bizkit podcast in general, though, as you know Blake wasn't going to try to discuss the connection of Fred Durst, My Way, and Rollin' to professional wrestling. Find out more about Durst's vision for Limp Bizkit at the outset, just how huge they got as the face of the turn-of-the-century nu metal movement, and what song from Significant Other our guest thinks is among the best of all time on this week's podcast.

At the Disco's debut album A Fever You Can't Sweat Out. Well, imagine, Jake pacing a podcast and he can't help but to hear an exchanging of words between Blake and Josh about wrestling. And also Brendon Urie. Find out more about Panic's contested roots as a blink-182 cover band, how the band eventually became a Urie solo project but not before releasing two underrated follow-up albums, and where Fever stands up in the pop-punk pantheon on this week's podcast.

Singles: Rufio - Above Me

Drew might cringe at that term pop-punk given his – and Chris Conley’s – hardcore roots, but tracing from Lifetime to Fall Out Boy through Saves the Day is tidy work. Find out more about Drew’s experience seeing Saves the Day in the hardcore scene, how the band’s slow transition to pop-punk made waves for the bands that followed them, and why Red Jeans 3:16 says “my spleen is dropping from my pants” on this week’s podcast.

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy celebrate the podcast’s birthday by resetting the connection tree and starting anew for Year Two. To do so, they fire up Green Day’s 1997 album Nimrod, maybe not the best Green Day album but possibly the most important.

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Densil McFarlane of The OBGMs (@theobgms) to discuss N.E.R.D.’s 2004 album Fly or Die. Obscured to some degree by the immense success of the group as producers (The Neptunes) and Pharrell Williams’ eventual solo work, N.E.R.D. is more than deserving of their own oxygen as a bridge between hip hop and rock. Find out more about the influence N.E.R.D. had on Denz, the irritating, if predictable, critical response to Fly or Die, and why the first two N.E.R.D. albums sound like they could have come out last year on this week’s podcast.

Yellowcard - Ocean Avenue (2003)

That mistake is one of two personal stories the hosts share on this one, the second of which is far more embarrassing. Find out more about Yellowcard’s path from the home of the Jaguars to L.A., how they incorporated violin so effectively into an otherwise standard pop-punk sound, and why the hosts think Yellowcard are the Paul George of early-2000s bands in this genre on this week’s podcast.

Singles: Serial Joe - Mistake
In the latest Columbia House Party single, Jake and Blake get just about as Canadian as it gets, taking Serial Joe’s single Mistake for a spin. It certainly sounds a certain way in 2020. But can you blame labels, Much Music, and the band for trying to capitalize on multiple overlapping trends at once? It was worth a shot. And Skidrow is still good.

Gob - How Far Shallow Takes You (1998)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Chris Cresswell (@crustcrustwell) of The Flatliners (@theflatliners) and more to discuss one of his major influences, Gob’s 1998 album How Far Shallow Takes You. You really thought CanCon pop-punk month was going to go down without some Gob? Go jump in a lake. Find out more about the path Gob paved for a generation of Canadian punks, what changed in their sound with each successive album, and whether any of the guys followed in their footsteps from a hair – or bug-eating – perspective on this week’s podcast.

Singles: The Age of Electric - Remote Control
In the latest Columbia House Party single, Jake and Blake offer up a rarity and actually concede that something is a one-hit wonder, and it’s not just because you didn’t listen to the album enough. The Age of Electric had a fairly big hit with Remote Control, and the band is otherwise best known for their subsequent (or parallel) projects. That doesn’t mean the song rules any less.

Avril Lavigne - Let Go (2002)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, Jake and Blake travel back to Blake’s most heartbroken shifts at the Cambridge Home Hardware and fire up Avril Lavigne’s 2003 debut Let Go. Armed with four massive singles one-through-four on the album, Let Go was a tour de force at the time and feels no less significant in retrospect. Find out more about the changes in writing process (and partners) Lavigne went through to find her sound, how and why she was able to blur the lines between genres, and why Complicated still makes one host so damn sad on this week’s podcast.

Singles: Hostage Life - Sons of Hostage Life
In the latest Columbia House Party single, Jake and Blake throw it back to Hostage Life and their excellent single Sons of Hostage Life. Which, yeah, you know there are some bad jokes about that song title within. But it’s still a good discussion about a band that was a staple of the Toronto scene and a little unknown outside of it.

Sum 41 - All Killer No Filler (2001)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy crown Sum 41’s 2001 album All Killer No Filler a Canadian musical landmark. That’s like a Canadian Heritage Minute, but it just plays every commercial break on Much Loud for eternity. Maybe a statue in Ajax, too. Find out more about how Sum 41 broke through outside of just the Canadian pop-punk scene to become emblematic of early-2000s culture, why their early work stands out even better in retrospect, and their unlikely turn to political nu-metal on this week’s podcast.

Singles: Cauterize - Something Beautiful
In the latest Columbia House Party single, Jake and Blake reach into Blake’s high school CD case to listen to Something Beautiful by Cauterize. The band formerly known as Take Off, Eh! seems an unlikely miss in the pop-punk explosion of the early 2000s, given how good the album So Far From Real is. Let’s try to figure out why they never broke through unless you really liked snowboarding video games.

Billy Talent (2003)

James made sense as the guest since he was also on for Billy Talent influence At The Drive-In and because he and Blake were at the same Billy Talent concert during frosh week at Queen’s. Find out more about Blake’s overdue realization that punk is political, Try Honesty’s continent-crossing success, and why Billy Talent’s first two albums hold up so well on this week’s podcast.

Singles: Disturbed - Down with the Sickness
How do you spell ooh ah ah ah ah? In the latest Columbia House Party single, Jake and Blake get “Down With the Sickness” and take a quick look at Disturbed. They were more than just a two-hit nu-metal star that The Edge 102.1 overdid. Shockingly so, actually, with ludicrous album sales and five No. 1 records. Learn more about High School Blake’s favourite band, and get stupefied.

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by comedian John Cullen (@cullenthecomic, @blockedpartypod, @thePOD_Kast) to discuss Broken Social Scene’s sophomore album You Forgot It In People. But not before they get derailed talking about Disturbed, Korn, labret piercings, and John’s love of nu-metal. The guys eventually talk BSS, we promise. Find out more about the ways Broken Social Scene are tied to myriad Toronto artists and bands, how they transitioned from an ambient instrumental band to a prominent indie rock one, and where Scott Pilgrim fits in all of this on this week’s podcast.

Singles: The OBGMs - Not Again
In the latest Columbia House Party single, Jake and Blake spotlight a Toronto punk band they’re both very high on, The OBGMs. Built around the single “Not Again” off of their upcoming album “The Ends,” the hosts explore whether The OBGMs can back up their claims of being Nirvana, Steve Jobs, Steph Curry, and Drake of the local scene. Keep an eye out for their album on October 30.

Lorde - Melodrama (2017)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Erin from Resting on Pretty (@RestingOnPod) to discuss Lorde’s 2017 sophomore album Melodrama. Melodrama being considered a pop album is accurate, but it paints Lorde in a way that sometimes seems to undersell her excellent as a songwriter. Find out more about her growth as a person and writer over the four year gap between albums, which Lorde song Jakes thinks is perfect, and why her eventual third album may be analyzed through a more appropriate lens on this week’s podcast.

Singles: Jackson Browne - For A Dancer
In the latest Columbia House Party single, Jake and Blake fire up Jackson Browne’s For A Dancer. Not only is Browne seemingly underrated and undercredited as an influence on today’s crop of singer-songwriters, he’s also just excellent in his own right. It’s not hard to see why Phoebe Bridgers is such a fan or why she was so excited to collaborate with him. Oh, and For A Dancer should be used more in sad movie/TV scenes.

This is the show’s first crack at covering a new album without the benefit of at least some nostalgia, so it’s good the hosts had Sarah to guide them. Find out more about Bridgers’ songwriting process, the influence of gender and power dynamics in the industry and how her work connects, and why Bridgers has quickly become considered one of the elite modern songwriters on this week’s podcast.

What better way to bridge Bright Eyes and Bridgers episodes? It also offers yet another chance for Jake to be unkind to his younger self as it pertains to Dylan Thomas. Yeemo-haw.

Find out more about Saddle Creek’s epic early-2000s run as a label, why the hosts think Bright Eyes was so influential as a thread between folk eras despite often being classified as emo, and what we expect to hear from Bright Eyes’ new album Down in the Weeds, Where the World Once Was on this week’s podcast.

Down Matt Skiba for this one – is there drama afoot? – Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker go back to their punkier roots, lament the pandemic situation we all find ourselves in, and poke at how it’s all been handled politically.

Is there a cooler band than Rilo Kiley, and a cooler singer than Jenny Lewis? It’s hard to figure.. Find out more about which Rilo Kiley song Jeff had his first dance too, which Rilo Kiley song Jeff has covered, and why the guys think Rilo Kiley weren’t a bigger breakthrough success on this week’s podcast.

Singles: Two Tongues - Crawl
In the latest Columbia House Party single, Jake and Blake use their two tongues to discuss the Two Tongues of Max Bemis and Chris Conley. After enjoying their work together on a Bob Dylan tribute, the respective lead singers of Say Anything and Saves the Day collaborated on a 2009 album together. The result, though, doesn’t quite live up to the expectations cast by each groups’ previous work, a common risk in supergroup formation.

Say Anything - ...Is a Real Boy (2004)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive into Say Anything’s 2004 pop-punk classic …Is a Real Boy (and, technically, their 2006 build-on …Was a Real Boy). It’s an album that stands out from its own scene upon review, somewhat ironically given the album’s heavy criticism of the scene itself. Find out more about the cost and benefit of Max Bemis’ sprawling creativity and perfectionism over the band’s life, how the hosts – and Bemis himself – deal with some of the less flattering lyrical content 16 years later, and how Say Anything produced the unlikeliest of emo love songs on this week’s podcast.

Singles: Chad Kroeger ft. Josey Scott - Hero
In the latest Columbia House Party single, Jake and Blake aren’t quite the heroes you’re looking for, but they do their best to analyze the hit single from the SpiderMan soundtrack. It’s just a shame the supergroup that made the track – including members of Nickelback, Saliva, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Our Lady Peace, and Theory of a Deadman – never gave themselves a cool early-2000s of-the-moment alt-rock name.

Find out more about Chris Carrabba’s transition from Further Seems Forever to Dashboard Confessional, what we know – and don’t know – about what went into his painful songwriting, and why one host thinks Dashboard holds up better than a lot of the early-2000s scene on this week’s podcast.

Singles: Hinder - Lips of an Angel
In the latest Columbia House Party single, Jake and Blake strain to keep their voices from going…there. You know where. That mid-2000s rock ballad sound that was unavoidable and, to be frank, not that enjoyable. But is Hinder’s Lips of an Angel one of the worst songs ever, or is it just held up as the avatar of a bad moment in rock history? Whisper your take, because you can’t be too loud.

Alexisonfire - Watch Out! (2004)
Watch Out! In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Sam Sutherland (@SamSthrlnd) of the blink-155 podcast to talk about…not blink-182, surprisingly. Instead, the trio takes a deep look at alexisonfire’s sophomore 2004 album Watch Out! Sam’s choice of album surprised, but explained through the lens of that moment in Canadian music history, it was the right choice. Find out more about Sam’s encyclopaedic knowledge of the early-2000s Canadian punk scene, Dallas Green’s resume as an all-around good guy, and how alexisonfire broke through despite not feeling like a CanCon success story on paper on this week’s podcast.

Singles: NOBRO - Marianna

They’re a band both hosts came across opening for other reputable bands in the scene and quickly became enamored with for their intensity, musicianship and songwriting.

Tyson Ritter hive, it’s your time to log on.

Singles: Nirvana - Lithium (w/ St.Vincent)
In the latest Columbia House Party single, Jake and Blake theorize on who the best fit may be in Kurt Cobain’s role if the remaining members of Nirvana were to ever tour again. St. Vincent immediately springs to mind, with her rendition of Lithium from 2014 – not to mention her entire catalog of very cool guitar work - standing out as one heck of an application for the job.

Nirvana - In Utero (1993)
It’s about time. In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy finally open up the grunge side of the podcast, diving deep on Nirvana’s industry-changing 1993 album In Utero. If you preferred Nevermind, well, blame the Patreon supporters who voted for this, and maybe give that take a second thought upon re-listening. Find out more about what Kurt Cobain set out to do with the impossible task of following up on Nevermind, the difficult process of trying to perfect the album with Steve Albini, and the monumental musical influence of In Utero on this week’s podcast.

Singles: Fall Out Boy - The Last of the Real Ones
In the latest Columbia House Party single, Jake and Blake run it back to episode No. 3 to get a gauge on where Fall Out Boy is, musically, here in 2020 rather than 2005. Using the song The Last of the Real Ones as a window into how Fall Out Boy have developed, it’s clear the current incarnation is a successful formula – and not a far cry from their earlier sound – even if it’s not for the hosts.

Future Islands - Singles (2014)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Katie Heindl (@wtevs, @weirdvessels) to discuss FEELINGS and the 2014 album Singles from Future Islands. It’s a bit more of a pop turn than usual for the hosts, but upon deeper listening, it fits right in with the CHP ethos. Find out more about how freestyle rapping played a role in Future Islands’ development, Katie’s emotional run-in with the lead singer, and whether Jake could dance on late-night TV on this week’s podcast.

Singles: Fozzy - Judas
What has Jake become? In the latest Columbia House Party single, he finally relents and allows Blake to discuss Fozzy’s Judas, a surprisingly catchy song that’s taken a hard pivot from being liked ironically to being liked earnestly. How, exactly, did Chris Jericho turn a half-joking side-project into something with seven albums and multiple Download Festival appearances? More importantly, is Jake becoming Judas…in his mind?

TV on the Radio - Return to Cookie Mountain (2006)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy explore TV on the Radio’s Return to Cookie Mountain, what they feel is one of the best albums to come out of the early-2000s indie rock boom. So much so, in fact, that this episode invites the first discussion of a potential CHP Hall of Fame for one of TV on the Radio’s members. Find out more about the David Letterman performance that helped put them on the map, where they veer from otherwise similar Meet Me In The Bathroom-era acts, and just how a band comes to sound like…this…on this week’s podcast.

Singles: Blaqk Audio - Stiff Kittens
How stiff a kitten are we talking here? If that strikes you as a bizarre introduction, well, welcome to Blaqk Audio, the side project of Davey Havok and Jade Puget of AFI. On the tails of this week’s main AFI episode, Jake and Blake explore Havok’s cultural versatility, the more electronic side of (half) the group, and how a seemingly unrelated experiment influenced AFI over the years.

We hope you suffer. In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by professional wrestler Jimmy Havoc (@JimmyHavoc) to discuss AFI’s 2000 classic The Art of Drowning. Havoc – and yes, he took that wrestling name in tribute to Davey Havok – fills us in on how AFI and other bands have shaped his wrestling persona, his merchandise, and his life. Find out more about how The Art of Drowning compares with Sing the Sorrow, which AFI song felt custom-made as entrance music for Havoc, and what he roasts Blake for on this week’s podcast.

Singles: Algiers - Dispossession
Run away from your America is right. In the latest Columbia House Party single, Jake and Blake take a quick dive into the political Atlanta four-piece Algiers and the lead single Dispossession off of their 2020 album There Is No Year. Algiers feel of this time – now and with their 2017 sophomore album The Underside of Power – and the hosts discuss what drew them to Algiers and who they compare to, if you haven’t checked them out. The hosts also explore some other Black artists they discovered during the recent amplification efforts of Bandcamp and the indie side of the industry.

It’s a wider-ranging chat than usual, thanks to Hanif’s incredible insight and thoughtfulness about how and why we connect with music at different stages. Find out more about the album’s iconic artwork, how we deal with problematic lyrics nearly 40 years later, and whether Milo actually went to college on this week’s podcast.

Singles: Imogen Heap - Hide and Seek
Mmmwhat’dyousay? That lyric likely brings to mind one of two things: A pivotal scene in The OC or Tik Tok star Jason Derulo. The new Hulu series Normal People, based on the excellent Sally Rooney novel, uses Imogen Heap’s Hide and Seek to even better effect, and so the latest Columbia House Party single explores whether a song can be taken back and get a second act even if it seems inextricable from a monoculture moment.

Isn’t it ironic? In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy go deep on a Canadian classic, Alanis Morissette’s incredible 1995 album Jagged Little Pill. Not only is the album excellent, it’s credited with facilitating important change in the rock scene for the late-90s and beyond. Find out more about Alanis’ roots as a child star in Ottawa, why and how she changed her approach for Jagged Little Pill, and who we think You Oughta Know might be about on this week’s podcast.

Through the lens of the new IDLES song Mr. Motivator, the latest Columbia House Party single explores the mechanisms of music subjectivity and why certain groups miss the Venn Diagram overlap.

Singles: Foo Fighters - Monkey Wrench
What if Dave Grohl were, himself, a (monkey) wrench in the plans of Sunny Day Real Estate? On the heels of our discussion about Diary, this week’s Columbia House Party “single” mini-episode explores the somewhat bizarre, he-said he-said history between SDRE and Foo Fighters, including Grohl’s replacement drumming on The Colour and The Shape and an alleged fifth SDRE album that one person believes Grohl had a hand in shelving. It’s…a lot.

Sunny Day Real Estate - Diary (1994)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy trace the so-called emo tree back up almost all the way to the top, exploring the definitive parent of the Midwest emo branch, Sunny Day Real Estate’s 1994 album Diary. It stands to reason that if you listen to this podcast, a lot of the bands you enjoy (and episodes we’ve done to date) were influenced by Diary, as SDRE genuinely helped move the genre forward. Find out more about why SDRE couldn’t sustain their success through some fault of their own, which of our hosts’ favourite bands today draw influence from Diary, and where the Foo Fighters come in on this week’s podcast.

We can be your lighthouse. Or can’t. Bert McCracken, The Used, and Mark Hoppus have left us a little unclear. The latest Columbia House Party “single” mini-episode takes a look at “The Lighthouse,” the most recent single off of The Used’s new album Heartwork. On paper, pairing The Used with their original producer and Hoppus should have been an easy victory. So why doesn’t it work as well as the rest of Heartwork?

It’s just too bad we recorded this before Cedric Bixler-Zavala dropped the best Instagram comment of the current election cycle. Even acknowledging that exclusion, this is a fun revisiting of a very influential album. Find out more about James and Blake’s unlikely non-friendship in university, how At The Drive-In became the Mars Volta and Sparta separately, and how Relationship of Command holds up against In/Casino/Out here in 2020 on this week’s podcast.

While Lil Peep is admittedly outside of the podcast’s normal genre wheelhouse, his influences are so similar to the podcast’s and to the artists that the podcast covers that he represents a unique look into the out-of-genre effects of industry and cultural changes. Find out more about how Lil Peep earned a major following by sampling pop-punk and emo songs on Soundcloud, what the status of this subgenre is following Peep’s untimely passing, and what Jake thinks of his first taste of emo-rap on this week’s podcast.

The shorter format takes a quick look at Phantom Planet’s place as a missed-opportunity early-2000s indie rock boom band, their earlier history with podcast favourite Jason Schwartzman, and how and why a song and band can become so inextricably linked to one moment in pop culture history.

Modest Mouse - Good News for People Who Love Bad News (2004)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy break down Modest Mouse’s 2004 breakthrough Good News for People Who Like Bad News. Unlike some of the other bands to perform at The Bait Shop, Modest Mouse were already quite well-established, but The OC rub and an enormous hit in Float On helped push them into the mainstream consciousness. That didn’t mean Good News was any less weird and fun, though. As we close out The OC Month, find out more about why a band like Modest Mouse would agree to a bit part on a teen pop-culture series, why our hosts lament their earlier Bukowski appreciation, and why you should revisit the band if Float On is your primary reference point on this week’s podcast.

Singles: The Killers - Caution

The podcast’s first single follows up on our discussion of 2004’s Hot Fuss by taking a look at how The Killers sound here in 2020. Their new single, Caution, off their upcoming album Imploding the Mirage, offers a spiritual midway point between Hot Fuss and Sam’s Town that the hosts appreciate.

The Killers - Hot Fuss (2004)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by culture writer Sarah MacDonald (@sarahsmacdonald, sarahsmacdonald.com) to discuss The Killers’ 2004 debut Hot Fuss. Another Meet Me In The Bathroom-era breakthrough sees our hosts bring Sarah back as the first two-time guest because The Killers require a certain level of cool they can’t reach alone. That’s a long way to have come for some kids from Las Vegas sneaking in to UNLV to practice and record. Find out more about how The Killers came to be, how Brandon Flowers’ former band influenced his writing and The Killers’ unique sound, and which Hot Fuss track is the millennial Stairway To Heaven on this week’s podcast.

The Walkmen - Bows + Arrows (2004)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy break down The Walkmen’s 2004 album Bows + Arrows. As The OC Month continues, The Walkmen represent an interesting and often self-defeating secondary character in the indie rock boom and an unlikely Bait Shop performer. They’re also emblematic of the Meet Me In The Bathroom-era New York rock scene, dripping in cool while made up of the pieces of other, disbanded groups. Find out more about the enormity of The Rat, the overall excellent use of music as a world-builder, character-developer, and story-teller in The OC, and which Canadian rock band one host initially confused The Walkmen with on this week’s podcast.

Welcome to The OC, listener. In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by comedian Lauren Mitchell (host of the @cavernofsecrets podcast) to discuss Death Cab For Cutie’s enormous 2003 hit Transatlanticism. This kicks off The OC Month, where the podcast will explore bands that performed at The Bait Shop on the hit show, which served as a snapshot and elevator of the early-2000s indie rock scene. Find out more about Ben Gibbard’s workmanlike songwriting approach for Transatlanticism, what character Lauren compares Jake to a grown-up and divorced version of, and what teenage attachments the group has to Death Cab on this week’s podcast.

No Doubt - Tragic Kingdom (1995)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are just two boys talking about Just A Girl as they dive deep on No Doubt’s 1995 classic Tragic Kingdom. They’re also joined briefly by Cassie Leigh Clancy (@cassleigh, co-host of the @restingonpod podcast) to discuss the fashion side of Gwen Stefani’s legacy. Find out more about some of the controversy around Stefani’s more problematic choices in that regard, how Stefani became a major pop culture influence coming out of Tragic Kingdom, and how an in-band relationship made for a powerful, if awkward, songwriting process on this week’s podcast.

Radiohead - In Rainbows (2007)
We’re that band, Radiohead. In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by music and culture writer Josh Terry (@JoshhTerry) to break down Radiohead’s 2007 album In Rainbows. With a handful of interesting Radiohead options, the guys go the In Rainbows route out of deep appreciation, but maybe not because it’s their No. 1 Radiohead album. You, too, surely have a Radiohead album ranking take. Find out more about that choice, how Radiohead stayed ahead of the curve in a dynamic record industry environment in the mid-2000s, and why Scott Tenorman must die on this week’s podcast.

The Cure - Disintegration (1989)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy close out their blink-182 arc by circling back to another of the band’s most prominent influences, The Cure’s 1989 masterpiece, Disintegration. Part two, as Robert Smith tells it, of a three-part trilogy that spans 18 years and eight of their 13 records, Disintegration is The Cure at their best, with Smith’s songwriting and vocals at their peak and the ambition of the overall musical environment pushing the album to a new height for the group. Find out more about which of Smith’s anxieties pushed him toward this sound for the album, the carousel of band members over their 40-plus years together, and whether The Wedding Singer holds up on this week’s podcast.

Lil Wayne - Tha Carter III (2008)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by basketball and culture writer Alex Wong (@steven_lebron, stevenlebron.com) to break down Lil Wayne’s 2008 smash hit, Tha Carter III. At the very peak of his power as the self-proclaimed Best Rapper Alive, Lil Wayne goes way outside of the usual rap album construct to push himself and the listener creatively. There are some misses as a result, but Wayne’s claim to be atop the game in that moment holds up well. Find out more about the long wait between Tha Carter II and III, Lil Wayne’s impact on a number of hip-hop subgenres, and how Lil Wayne provided a pathway for artists controlling their music in the online era on this week’s podcast.

Travis Barker - Give The Drummer Some (2011)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy realize that blink-182 month has focused too much on Mark Hoppus and Tom DeLonge. It was time for them to Give The Drummer Some by diving deep on Travis Barker’s solo album of that name. Yes, Barker had a solo album. Yes, it kind of rules. No, rap-rock will never die. Find out more about Barker’s sad and arduous road to creating his solo project, the incredible list of hip-hop artists Barker finds to rap over his drums and synths, and what weird moment in rap the success of Barker’s partnership with one artist inspired on this week’s podcast.

+44 - When Your Heart Stops Beating (2006)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy continue blink-182 month (is there a name for a six-week stretch?) by diving into one of a handful of blink side-projects, +44’s lone album, When Your Heart Stops Beating. The unofficial follow-up to blink’s untitled album, +44 sees Mark Hoppus and Travis Barker continue down that same road, with Hoppus trying to extend himself creatively but ultimately reining himself back in. Find out more about where +44 fits in the blink fracture, why they don’t utilize Carol Heller more, and how Barker’s newborn affected the duo’s new found on this week’s podcast.

Blink-182 - Take Off Your Pants and Jacket (2001)
Breathing deeply, walking backwards. In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive back into one of the seminal works of not only the pop-punk explosion but of all of early-2000s pop culture, Blink-182’s Take Off Your Pants and Jacket. It was time for a blink episode, as a key moment in the podcast’s origin story involved our hosts quite lubricated on the first tour with Matt Skiba. Find out more about how the making of Take Off Your Pants and Jacket was the first fissure for Tom DeLonge and Mark Hoppus, whether it holds up better than Enema of the State or Dude Ranch, and what the best two-song pair on any blink album is on this week’s podcast.

Alkaline Trio - Good Mourning (2003)
A can of matches, a can of kerosene, a bad idea. In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy revisit what they agree to be the best Alkaline Trio album, 2003’s Good Mourning. Even with the podcast still in its relative infancy, this almost felt overdue – Jake and Blake began their friendship arguing about the ranking of Alkaline Trio albums on Twitter. Find out more about how challenging Good Mourning was for the band to write and record, how Blake channels Matt Skiba with some voice issues of his own, and the more contentious rankings of Alkaline Trio albums outside of the top two on this week’s podcast.

Pixies - Doolittle (1989)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive into an album that is inextricable from every episode that’s come before or will come after, the 1989 classic Doolittle from Pixies. It’s just Pixies, by the way. The impact Pixies had on all of alt-rock, pop-punk, and the subgenres between is well established but becomes obvious through a deep re-examining of their most prominent work. Find out more about which modern bands the guys hear Pixies in most, how the relationship between Black Francis and Kim Deal began fracturing, and what the hell Un Chien Andalou is on this week’s podcast.

We are three Canadian aquarium drinkers. In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Steve Sladkowski, the guitarist from PUP, to discuss Wilco’s 2004 album, A Ghost is Born. The album that necessitated the addition of Nels Cline – first as a touring guitarist and later as a full-time member – A Ghost is Born sees Jeff Tweedy take a necessary leap as a guitarist while his songwriting is as on-point as always. Find out more about how Wilco influenced one of the best guitarists in the world today (Steve), just how rough things got for Tweedy in the 2000s, and which of Tweedy’s opening lines the guys love most on this week’s podcast.

In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Jake’s friend Wilson to revisit and reprocess The Decemberists’ 2006 album, The Crane Wife. There is a lot going on here, with two sprawling, multi-part songs that lean heavily on historical (or mythical) source material and a few stand-alone tracks that do the same. Find out more about which Shakespeare play The Decemberists built upon, just how many people die (in album kayfabe) over the course of an hour, and what Wilson’s full name is on this week’s podcast.

The Postal Service - Give Up (2003)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy go deep on one of the most well-regarded side projects of the 2000s, Give Up from indie supergroup The Postal Service. With Dntel synths, Ben Gibbard’s vocals, and Jenny Lewis’, well, everything, Give Up withstands the test of time as something greater than a pit-stop before Death Cab for Cutie blew up. Find out more about how the recording process fed into the name, the weird concert performance that resulted, and why despite teases we never got another album from the trio on this week’s podcast.

Desaparecidos - Read Music/Speak Spanish (2002)
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive into Conor Oberst’s punk-rock side-project, Desaparecidos. Not unlike a wrestler’s excursion, Oberst took a brief aside from his ascension as a part of Bright Eyes and as the face (and bangs) of a genre to do something a little different before ultimately returning. Read Music/Speak Spanish is more political and far angrier than you may be used to with Oberst’s other projects, and while it wasn’t heralded at the time, it really works. Find out more about Oberst’s relationship with his hometown of Omaha, why he cared “way more” about Bright Eyes, and where this project ranks in the vast Oberst library on this week’s podcast.

Other podcasts don’t love you like we love you. In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by culture writer Sarah MacDonald (sarahsmacdonald.com) to discuss the Yeah Yeah Yeah’s 2003 debut album Fever to Tell. Karen O features heavily in Lizzy Goodman’s Meet Me In The Bathroom, an exploration of the early-2000s New York rock scene, and for good reason: not only is she unspeakably cool, she is, as Sarah once wrote, indie rock’s beating heart. Find out more about the importance of Karen O as a female presence in the genre’s renaissance, Maps’ legacy as one of the best love songs of all-time, and why you can’t trust someone with a fauxhawk on this week’s podcast.

Motion City Soundtrack - Commit This To Memory (2005)
Everything is alright! In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive into Motion City Soundtrack’s 2005 album Commit This to Memory. Not only did Commit This to Memory lock in a definitive, unmistakable sound that cut through the saturation of the genre for Motion City Soundtrack, it was also the first foray into production for blink-182’s Mark Hoppus. While the hosts agree this album isn’t necessarily Motion City’s strongest, it is certainly the most interesting and most important. Find out more about Justin Pierre’s personal battles throughout the writing process, Blake’s personal battles with losing a labret piercing at Warped Tour, and which MCS album the hosts think tops the discography on this week’s podcast.

With sprinkles of Canadiana, a triumvirate of songs in iambic pentameter, and a track from the perspective of a cat, John K. Samson is at his absolute best on Reconstruction Site, the band’s 2003 album that directly inspired the next wave of emo-pop and many in the emo revival. Find out more about Samson’s love-hate relationship with Winnipeg, his quest to reclaim Neil Young’s honour, and where Jake ranks Samson among the greatest living song writers on this week’s podcast.

Jimmy Eat World - Bleed American (2001)
Are you listening? In the latest episode of Columbia House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive into Jimmy Eat World’s fourth album, the crossover success Bleed American. A follow up to Clarity, which is often debated as their best album, Bleed American shifted from an emo-oriented sound toward alt-rock, producing eminently recognizable singles thanks to accessibly simple lyrics and excellent power-pop guitar work. That Jimmy Eat World continued producing good albums – a lot of them – is almost lost in just how influential their earlier work was. Find out more about reception to The Middle, why Sweetness almost didn’t make the album, and how 9/11 comes up once again in this week’s podcast.

Third Eye Blind (1997)
How many hits can you have and still be misremembered as a one-hit wonder?
In the latest episode of Columbia House Party hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake
Murphy try to find out by diving into Third Eye Blind's self-titled album. The
successful debut produced five singles over the course of two years,
landing them on era-defining compilation albums and every late-90s and
early-00s coming-of-age soundtrack. Semi-Charmed Life may be the tune
people remember them for the most - and it's a great snapshot of what
remains a pretty definitive sound - but this album is deeper than you
remember. Find out more about the non-singles that had an influence outside
the genre, the alleged difficulties of working with Stephan Jenkins, and a
tough ride on the MuchMusic Countdown in this week’s podcast.

Robyn - Body Talk (2010)
It won’t always be pop-punk and emo. In the latest episode of Columbia
House Party, hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive into one of the
decade’s best pop albums, Robyn’s Body Talk. Long after Robyn first broke
through outside of Sweden with Robyn is Here, Body Talk represented her
three-part return to the North American charts and consciousness. With two
elite singles – both firmly in the top 100 songs of the 2010s – and only
one or two small misses, it’s little surprise that Robyn could take eight
years before her next release and it still be highly anticipated. Find out
more about Robyn’s vision for her most ambitious undertaking, the unlikely
features on the album, and Body Talk’s place in the poptimism discussion on
this week’s podcast.

Fall Out Boy - From Under the Cork Tree (2005)
Sooner or later, Columbia House Party had to tackle 'The Only Album.' Hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy are joined by Andrew Zuber of Sportsfeld to dissect the quintessential mid-2000s pop-punk album, Fall Out Boys’ From Under the Cork Tree. Dripping in sarcasm and self-deprecation, From Under the Cork Tree makes it’s sad, oft-unrequited lyrics more accessible with power-pop riffs, well-designed singles, and Patrick Stump’s underrated vocal chops. Fall Out Boy pivoted to more of an arena-rock sound not long after Cork Tree, which looks like an obvious and expected move looking back on 2005’s finest here in 2019. Find out more about Pete Wentz’s struggles during recording, the developing “pop-punk quadrant,” and the lasting impact of the album on this week’s podcast.

My Chemical Romance - The Black Parade (2006)
In the most-anticipated episode of Columbia House Party yet, Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive into My Chemical Romance’s ambitious rock opera The Black Parade. A follow-up to their breakthrough album Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge, The Black Parade takes the MCR aesthetic up several notches and leans into a dark, quirky, ultimately redemptive single-story arc about The Patient. The album was a much bigger commercial success than some may remember, leading to a great deal of conversation around emo culture and some disturbingly laughable claims from mainstream UK media. Find out more about Gerard Way’s intentions with the album, how fans rallied as a community around it, and what this moment in music helped accomplish for the discussion around mental health in this week’s podcast.

Weezer - Pinkerton (1996)
In the inaugural episode of Columbia House Party hosts Jake Goldsbie and Blake Murphy dive into Weezer’s sophomore album, the cult classic and infamously divisive Pinkerton. A follow up to their wildly successful Blue album, Pinkerton came after a short hiatus that saw headman Rivers Cuomo undergo extensive surgery and commence studies at Harvard University. Disillusioned with his once-dream of being a rockstar, Cuomo had originally planned for Pinkerton to be a rock opera. Although that idea was abandoned, the album’s namesake was a character described as being not dissimilar to a touring rock star. Find out more about Cuomo’s struggles with the album, letters received by a particular Japanese fan and which big-name director the band turned down in this week’s podcast.
