The Crushed Monocle Podcast is a show where Jon and Coop talk about stuff. ALL the stuff! Music, movies, shows, life, or whatever. Naturally, they will mispronounce names, poke fun at themselves, and never fail to profess their love for Showgirls’ 1995 masterpiece. Doesn’t that excite you? Sure it does! This is why it’s essential that you subscribe to this podcast on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you consume fine podcasts. This is the Crushed Monocle Podcast: Episode 14 – The Ghost Is Clear Records!
What started out as a way to help a few friends put out a few albums has now blossomed into one of the most interesting labels in noise rock! The Ghost Is Clear records is essentially Bobby Johnson (of the band Canyons) and Brian Dooley (of Tigon), two dudes who love everything aggressive, ugly, and indie. Jon and Coop had the opportunity to hang with Dooley and Johnson to discuss their distorted machine.
In this episode, Jon, Coop, Brian, and Bobby discuss a wide variety of topics such as:
- How The Ghost Is Clear Records became a thing.
- Deciding what to listen to and what to press.
- Strengthening the scene by strengthening relationships.
- Eating around the vinyl pressing issues.
- What we can do to support indie bands and indie labels.
Meanwhile, Coop explains why he loves Electrified Brain, the new record from Municipal Waste so much. Jon discusses Queen Kwong releasing a break-up record about Wes Borland from Limp Bizkit.
Do these topics interest you? Well, you’ve stuck it out with us for this far, so we gotta be doing something right!
