In case you missed it, last week we shared the fourth installment of the Matador Revisionist History Podcast. Hear a conversation between Fucked Up and Titus Andronicus to celebrate the 10th anniversary of each of their albums: Fucked Up’s “David Comes To Life” and Titus Andronicus’ “The Monitor."

“People know when music has been made that hasn’t been too fussed over. It’s so easy when people are working on computers these days, you can line everything up and see that when you copy and paste, it’s exactly right.
