Phoenix; The Strokes' Comedown Machine; STRFKR

In this episode: A triple dose of new music. First, french electro-rock band Phoenix won a Grammy for their 2009 album Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix and earned a mainstream audience with hits like “Lisztomania” and “1901.” They join us to preview their upcoming album, Bankrupt!, with a live performance.
Plus: A new record from another celebrated indie rock group. Steven Hyden of Grantland reviews the Strokes' new album, Comedown Machine – and has a conspiracy theory to share, too.
And: We might not be able to say STRFKR's name on air, but their catchy pop is way more accessible than their moniker. They’ve got a new album, too — Miracle Mile. The Portland band plays live in the studio.

Club’s Steve Hyden join us to decipher New York references on the rap trio’s latest release, as well as on earlier albums.
