The Record Store Day Podcast with Paul Myers

Castle Rat is a self-described "medieval fantasy metal band" led by our guest, Riley Pinkerton. In her stage persona as "The Rat Queen," Pinkerton is a sword-wielding heroine on a mission to expand and defend 'The Realm' from those who seek to destroy it. Off stage, she's a friendly, glue-gun wielding creative arts kid, firmly grounded in the real world. She's here to talk about the band's most recent concept album, The Bestiary, why she feels that the body positive fantasy art of Frank Frazetta was actually empowering to women, and how she and her band all get a good laugh out of watchingl the film, This Is Spinal Tap.

Toronto-based band Metric have come a long way since their official formation over two decades ago, but as they sang in their 2008 single "Help, I'm Alive," their hearts are still "beating like a hammer." Metric co-founder and lead singer Emily Haines is here to guide us through the "minefield of memory" and unpack the urgent and emotional songs on the band's just released 10th album, Romanticize The Dive (Thirty Tigers/MMI), and Metric's impending tour with fellow Canadian legends Broken Social Scene and (friends of the podcast), Stars.

Squeeze co-founder Glenn Tilbrook is here to discuss the band's fantastic new album Trixies, featuring the current lineup of the beloved London, England based band bringing to life a concept album full of songs that Tilbrook and co-founder Chris Difford first wrote together over 50 years ago, well before they'd even recorded their debut album with producer John Cale. The result is arguably the band's strongest album in decades. We also look back on Squeeze's earlier work with Elvis Costello, reveal how The Roots played an indirect role in the band's current lineup, and Glenn pays his respects to dear departed original drummer, Gilson Lavis.
