  • ...and there will be NO ENCORE.


    As Tebi Rex comes to an end, we are delighted to welcome Max Zanga and Matt Ó Baoill to the NO ENCORE studio; a studio in which they recorded their 2019 debut album The Young Will Eat The Old.


    Their forthcoming third and final album Fin. will be the final chapter in the Tebi Rex discography, and as such they're here to talk Dave Hanratty and Sonic Architect Adam Shanahan through the top songs on the topic and tell us how they feel about endings.


    Over on the NO ENCORE Patreon this week, Adam puts his music industry hat back on for a two-hour bonus podcast on the current feelings on the Irish music industry from three people on the ground in the first of what will likely be a mini Patreon series. Rachel Mae Hannon of District Magazine, independent recording artist Melina Malone and founder of Golden Éire Records Odhran O'Brien join Adam for the first edition, available now.


    This coming Monday, Dave & Andy McCarroll return to familiar territory to choose their fighters in the first 'versus' edition of the NO ENCORE Film Club. It's Street Fighter VS Mortal Kombat, so expect to hear the two film experts test their might on this one.


    Onwards, however, to this week's agenda...


    ACT ONE: Tebi Rex tell us about Fin. and reflect on their discography, musical journey and more.


    ACT TWO (33:02): Snoop Dogg biopic on the cards, and he speaks about investing in Celtic FC (but not in the way you might expect), Scooter Braun tells us about his guilt, Ed Sheeran culturally identifies as Irish and misinformed Miley Cyrus fans get a bit irritable– it's the news.


    ACT THREE (55:51): Top 5 Songs About Endings

  • Throw those horns up high, it's time to rock out.


    And who better to be leading the ferocious charge this week than former co-host Craig Fitzpatrick, as he returns to school Dave Hanratty and Sonic Architect Adam Shanahan in the finest, most commercially palatable metal songs to ever be released.


    And if that's simply not enough NO ENCORE for you, over on our Patreon feed you can find our latest Film Club episode where Dave and Andy carefully place Damien Chazelle's box office bomb Babylon under their proverbial microscope. Bonfire of the vanities or overlooked secret masterpiece? Sign up now to hear the boys attempt to make sense of it all. 


    Next up on the Patreon feed this coming Monday, Adam will be chatting about the current state of the Irish music industry as Album Club takes a well-deserved break. Tune in for interviews with industry professionals across a number of disciplines to hear what the feeling is on the ground, what their hopes are for the future and what could be improved.


    You can sign up to the NO ENCORE Patreon now for a full year and get a whole month free, so get amongst it!


    But for now, it's time to dust off that Slayer t-shirt that never quite did fit right...


    ACT ONE (5:25): It's been a whole five years since David Guetta ended racism forever, Thom Yorke finally breaks his silence on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Swedish House Mafia collab with AI to make their way into an Irish MEP's letter to the European Commission, the Bono Box bursts open once more as he sits down with Joe Rogan for a three-hour epic, Pusha T slams Kanye, Haim address their place in the 'rock community', Fyre Festival is back yet again, and we pay tribute to Simpsons composer Alf Clausen in the wake of his passing – it's the news.

  • Get the 7" record out of the sleeve, or open up that thin jewel case you spent a fiver on for that one special tune you couldn't get off repeat.


    Dave Hanratty and Sonic Architect Adam return to their respective microphones and welcome photographer extraordinaire Christian Tierney to revisit the best commercial introductions that an artist has given us.


    Elsewhere on the NO ENCORE Patreon feed, you can find Adam's most recent Album Club episode on show faves Touché Amoré's album Stage Four from 2016, and coming this Monday you'll find Dave and Andy's Film Club return to discuss what some regard as an overlooked masterpiece, Babylon from 2022. Where will the two men sit on this particular spectrum? You'll have to sign up to find out.


    Speaking of which, we now have annual Patreon memberships available! Sign up for the year and you'll get a whole month free, too. Anyway, more about this week's show, if you please...


    ACT ONE (13:39): The Bono Box is open as he finally speaks about Israel, Lorde does some typical Lorde things, All-American Rejects receive a rejection of their own, a Bruce Springsteen cover band pay for the sins of their idol, Metallica (literally) save lives and Miley Cyrus is warned off recording a new album by... Harrison Ford? It's the news.

  • Dave and Adam are Young at heart this week as a legendary - and notoriously prickly - troubadour gets the spotlight thrust upon him. 


    Admittedly, neither of your regular microphone fiends are experts on the man born Neil Percival Young, so thankfully they have A. Smyth on hand in the co-host chair, a few weeks ahead of his excellent new album Hello Goliath. 


    That record is up for discussion, alongside a grab-bag of news items, and some thoughtful head-scratching on the runaway success of lore-infused alt-rock sensations Sleep Token. 


    Over on the NO ENCORE Patreon, there's a spirited, additional audio-heavy breakdown of 1995 twistathon The Usual Suspects on a brand new Film Club, while Adam has a fresh Album Club imminent in the days to come - hit up patreon.com/noencore to sign up now! 


    As for this episode...


    ACT ONE: A. Smyth talks Hello Goliath, sonic irritations, personal inspirations, and more. 


    ACT TWO (38:03): Josh Freese packs his Foo Fighters drum-bags, Donald Trump takes aim at two of his favourite pop culture targets, Lorde makes a strange admission, and what the hell is this Sleep Token phenomenon all about? It's the news. 


    ACT THREE (1:12:21): Top 5 Neil Young.

  • Given the Heat of the week's sunshine, it's time to get dramatic, but not in a criminal fashion, as is the style of the main character of this week's show.


    Brian Lloyd joins Dave Hanratty and Sonic Architect Adam Shanahan as he directs their attention to some of his favourite and some of the most iconic needle drops seen across the filmography of show-favourite director Michael Mann.


    Over on NO ENCORE's Patreon feed, you can also find the most recent Album Club episode on Turnstile's GLOW ON from 2021, where Adam shares his thoughts having gone into the record completely blind.


    This coming Monday Dave and Andy McCarroll will also be taking a look at The Usual Suspects on Film Club, Andy's favourite movie of all time, so tune in to see if Dave agrees or disagrees with that one...


    Anyway, let's roll camera on this week's proceedings.


    ACT ONE: Brian saw the new Mission: Impossible movie and gives us a preview, and Adam enacts a pseudo-takeover of the Sunday of this year's Forbidden Fruit festival.


    ACT TWO (9:01): A little rumination on Kanye's latest controversy, Taylor Swift is served, Creed take things faster rather than Higher, Daryl Hall is once again a curmudgeon (this time about yacht rock), Oasis' new album is fake news according to their management, Foo Fighters announce their public comeback later this year and we return to our beloved Kiss Korner– it's the news.


    ACT THREE (46:23): Top 5 Michael Mann Needle Drops

  • Giddy up!


    Join us as Dave Hanratty and Sonic Architect Adam Shanahan saddle-up alongside Clare Martin, contributor at Paste Magazine, to gallop into some of the finest equestrian-adjacent musical numbers the world has to offer.


    And while we have you, why not canter on over to the NO ENCORE Patreon, where you'll find our most recent Film Club episode on The Counselor, in which Dave desperately tries to make the argument for a misunderstood masterpiece even though most critics - including his co-host Andy McCarroll - prefer to regard the Ridley Scott / Cormac McCarthy team-up as one of the worst films of modern times. 


    We've also got a forthcoming edition of Adam's Album Club landing this Monday for your enjoyment. All for a mere €5 per month - you'd be mad to miss it.


    Anyway, onwards to the show! Open the stable doors, or something...


    ACT ONE: Dave shares some constructive feedback from a listener. He's not mad, just disappointed. 


    ACT TWO (12:08): Adam gives a brief F1: The Album update, Lady Gaga sets a new crowd record in Brazil as local police foil a bomb plot, a Timotheé Chalamet appearance at Glastonbury is teased, Rihanna announces an exciting new release, Katy Perry offers up a lot of words to her haters, Lorde also breaks out the purple prose, Gloria Gaynor weighs in on the whole 'feminism' thing, Billy Corgan spills the tea for a second time, and we return to our beloved Kiss Korner– it's the news.


    ACT THREE (45:25): Top 5 Songs About Horses.

  • It's time to activate as many guitar pedals as we have and get moody.


    Let us enter the dreamy, pensive sphere of the shoegaze genre, and who better to be joined by than first-time guest, shoegaze-enthusiast and Cable Boy frontman Semi Olusa to guide Dave Hanratty and Sonic Architect Adam Shanahan through the haze and reverb of it all.


    That's not all that's on offer though; on the NO ENCORE Patreon, you can find weekly bonus episodes including this week's Album Club where Adam takes a look back to 2001 to discuss Daft Punk's broadly-acclaimed second album Discovery.


    This coming Monday, you'll also find Dave and Andy McCarroll return to their Film Club antics to break down and discuss 2013 Ridley Scott crime-thriller The Counselor, which includes an all-star cast for the ages including our very own hometown hero Michael Fassbender – oh, and by the way, many regard this as the worst film ever made, not to be missed!


    But onwards to the show ahead...


    ACT ONE: Semi tells us about Cable Boy and new music ahead of their headline show in Bello Bar at the end of the month.


    ACT TWO (40:20): A moment for legendary Irish lighting engineer Conor Biddle who passed away last week, the latest on Kneecap as they continue to make global headlines for their political statements and beliefs, Ryan Coogler talks Irish trad, Ben Affleck names his hip-hop Mount Rushmore and Dizzee Rascal on upskilling – it's the news.
