If There Is Hell Below...

Hello pal, you been waiting a whole year again to hear your boys Callum and Rob wax lyrical about the records that have soundtracked their year? Tbh we have an absolute gas, yet again, get increasingly drunk through out the record and remind ourselves there may have been a handful of reasons 6music never scooped us up.

Rob and Callum dust off the mics to present the jewel in the podcasting crown, an annual highlight of the year, the episode you’ve been waiting all these months for… its Good Shit ’21: Albums. You know the score, they’re bringing a track from their 20 favourite albums of the year and chatting about ‘em.
It’s been a year where your presenters listening habits have changed, the times, spaces and delivery of how they get music has changed for them and with that choices that take a different direction to previous years.

Hope you enjoy our return, we decided to keep it nice and long on account of you not hearing from us for a while and please forgive us as we audibly get more drunk as the podcast goes deeper in.

As per usual, let us know your Good Shit and do share your opinions on the albums, artists and tracks featured.

Pop a cork, crack open a job juice and have listen to Rob and Callum’s 400th episode of If There’s Hell Below - that’s a few hours behind us, son.

In celebration we asked YOU to send us some questions, which we’ll answer as a song, this is the first time ya bois have recorded together in a room for well over a year - we had a blast. Hope you do too.

Thanks for all your support and for listening.

Rob and Callum's last podcast in the 300s and you know it's one of the most free-flowing podcasts of the year, your boys are in fine form chatting anxiety dreams and teenage jobs but don't worry the tunes bang. If you like the eclectic and varied sound of UK jazz, British takes on Oz indie, modern takes on proto-metal, luxury sophistopop listening and some tangy country folk... you've come to the right place.

Rob and Calum return with 10 of their favourite tracks on their 398th episode. Expect British Jazz poetry fire liquid future funk soul, West African psych rock, Arthur Russell shaped pop folk and more. 

Join Rob and Callum in their cult as they chat through their 10 favourite songs of the week; there's some psychedelic forest folk, country, some whimsical 60s pop, some emo bedroom indie, some folk and plenty of good stuff.

Rob and Callum with tunes that are 'not your normal stuff'. That's right it's a banger dense record with some old school ITHB flavours from Ty Segall affiliated psych freak folk, the return of Rosali with some wonderful country twang and Philadelphian royalty on backing, record of the year bits and incredible 3 part harmonies from Lula Wiles, Hus KingPins ode to Portishead, old school sweaty indie from Soft Jocks and the return of Tristan with an instant classic. There's a few more things, give it a listen.

Rob and Callum are back after a fortnight break with 10 lovely new music tunes for you. Oh I do hope you like hip hop, alt-country, indie, Jesus and Mary Chain stuff, late Velvet Underground stuff and more, cos that's what we're serving up here.

Hang with Rob and Callum as they hang with Mr. Chill to provide ten fresh bangers. From sociopolitcal fire from Adrian Younge, to MTV2 vibe of Juan Wauters to the tangy country of Cactus Lee and the timeless hip hop of Tha God Fahim & Your Old Droog... There's also some big sunshine indie pop, a track about a lost sword and some 70s AOR pop. 

Rob and Callum back again with some ying chill lockdown to yang lockdown tense cage rattlers, together we are one, we are whole. Ambient country, timeless cult driving garage rock, balearic electro darkness, some peak The Men country, some ambient country, some alt-country, some bangers, some brilliance and some good times.

Rob and Callum with another bag of 10 new tunes from horror soundtrack hip hop to Nordic indie to Glaswegian artpop to lofi bubblegum pop. 

Rob and Callum present their 20 favourite tracks of the year from records and released not represented on GS Albums. As we discuss, it's been a funny year for changing the way we discover music and the environment we do, so while there are some bangers and heavy hitters, there's plenty of songs that have bought us comfort over the year.

Rob and Callum are prepped to live rent free in your head for the next hour and we’ve snuck some bangers in. Those 10 new tracks include UK Hip Hop, Italian afro disco, New York Croon punk folk, fretless bass, Parquet Courts aligned indie and some some sample jazz hip hop… I’ll be honest that sounds want but it really isn’t, you know you can trust us.
