Just how many episodes can I begin with I LIKE TRAINS songs? I’ll just keep going until the singer’s tendency to recycle vocal melodies gets enough on my nerves to counteract the joy of the post-punk guitar hooks and tasty synth sonics… in other words, it’s possible that I’ll play every song on the album…

FOUR! FOUR weeks in a row playing Machinedrum and SWAN MEAT! Ahhhh-hahahahaha! Even a D’n’B episode can’t stop me. This is the last new episode for a bit of a bit, as we proceed into holiday reruns.

Eh! Oh! It’s another 160 BPM episode! As usual, that means some footwork, some neo-jungle, some straight DnB, and a little bit of dance rock (in this case, the bread on this drum’n’werk sammitch). What else is there to say? It slams, and the coda brings the funky motorik goodness. Is it just needlessly repetitive…
