Everything Everything vs Orbital Live at Glastonbury 1994 - 2004 - Part 2

<p>Welcome to Album Clash! Concluding our live dance albums clash, we turn this week to the godfathers of rave Orbital, and their retrospective documenting of their numerous performances at Glastonbury over the years, ingeniously titled ‘Live at Glastonbury: 1994 - 2004’.</p> <p>In doing so we talk about the massive role Orbital played in bringing electronic dance music into the mainstream, not least of all with the first performance featured on this very album, and how they influenced so many of the acts that followed in their footsteps. We also talk about how Tim is a seminal figure in the recording of the album. (Because he was at one of the featured performances. Yes that does count.) We also make numerous calls back to the album which became Kev’s bête noire.</p> <p>In our latest ‘video killed the radio star’ we take a look at a recent video from an artist we have previously praised on album clash, and end up talking again about one of our favourite Shane Meadows films.</p> <p>Once again, dizzy on the high of our return, we decide to introduce yet another new feature to the pod, although we’re still workshopping the name.</p> <p>As is our custom we compare our scores of these two albums to decide who prevails in the ring of death. And, as a rare treat for our regular listeners, we actually have some element of a debate…</p> <p>Also this week:</p> <ul> <li>we exercise our satirical chops by getting stuck into the Poll Tax;</li> <li>we discuss the the choice of background music at vegan cafes; and</li> <li>we lament the behaviour of certain types of people at festivals. Bollocks!</li> </ul> <p>This. Is. ALBUM CLASH!</p> <p><br></p> <p>***If you like what you've heard in this show, why not subscribe to the pod?
