Instant reaction after Razorlight SMASHED IT at Hammersmith Apollo on the final night of their tour. Awesome gig, so much energy (eventually!) down the front and great to see such a huge reception to hits old and new. Here’s Pete & Rich’s post-gig verdict!

This week on The Boys in the Band Podcast we're delighted to be joined by Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace the filmmakers behind the fantastic new 00s indie film Meet Me In The Bathroom.
Based on the renowned, respected book by Lizzy Goodman of the same name, they have pulled together stunning archive footage from the New York scene, giving incredible insights into bands such as The Strokes, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Rapture, Interpol, LCD Soundsystem, Moldy Peaches and more.
From energetic, chaotic live shows to capturing those artists at their most vulnerable and natural back stage or on the tour bus, it is a must-watch movie, which you can see in UK cinemas or stream on Amazon Video, Apple TV and Microsoft.

This week on The Boys in the Band Podcast we're delighted to be joined by Reggie Youngblood of Black Kids.
Pete and Rich saw their SECOND ever UK show so we reflect on the big buzz about the band back in late 2007 - and what it was like for the band to come back this year for Partie Traumatic anniversary shows.
We also chat about the 'pure sugar' Black Kids sound on tracks like 'I'm not going to teach your boyfriend how to dance with you' - and other quirky song titles like that one!

We also chat about the crossover between music and football fandom, with Zac weaving some football references into his tunes.

Our series of bonus podcasts continues with Mark Greaney from JJ72 picking his favourite album of the 00s.
He goes with () by Sigur Ros - an album name hard to pronounce! Reflecting on the album, Mark discusses the power of music to transport us back to moments in time and we also debate the importance of understandable lyrics in music, with this LP sung in 'Hopelandic', a made up language.
Sigur Ros of course had success with Hoppípolla from their follow-up album Takk... being used in a series of adverts and TV montages. While JJ72 songs were never used in quite that way, Mark tells us a funny story about a clip of Oxygen appearing on Sky Sports!

This week on The Boys in the Band Podcast we're delighted to be joined by Mark Greaney, formerly the frontman of JJ72.
The band burst out of Dublin at the start of 2000 and were playing big festival shows and supporting huge acts when they were only just turning 20. Mark reflects on that boom and how they capitalised on the buzz around the band.
But within two years Mark says the music scene had changed dramatically. Why? Because of The Libertines, he says. Mark discusses how the sudden shift from bands formed in the late 90s to ones formed in the early years of the 00s changed the landscape.
We discuss how JJ72's two albums were put together, including some of their biggest hits such as Oxygen, and Mark - who works at BIMM Institute Dublin and has taught the likes of Fontaines DC - reveals potential plans for the previously unreleased third album!

First up, Hugh goes with Panic Prevention by Jamie T - an album we've repeatedly praised on this podcast! Hugh hails Jamie's musical skill and craft, as well as his range of influences, and tells us about a tour featuring The Kooks, Jamie T, Mystery Jets and Larrikin Love. What a line up! Find out why he calls Jamie T "our Ed Sheeran"!
Luke then goes with The Strokes' second album Room on Fire - another fantastic choice. Luke calls the Strokes the most influential band in the last 20 years and we discuss the impact they had on The Kooks musically and stylistically.

This week on The Boys in the Band Podcast we're delighted to be joined by Luke Pritchard and Hugh Harris from The Kooks.
Their debut album Inside In/Inside Out is a classic of the era and brought the boys huge success, with tracks like Naive being played everywhere in the mid '00s - and the love for that band was recently underlined at some standout anniversary shows.
We chat to Luke and Hugh about how the album came together and the No1 follow up album Konk, right through to their upcoming new album 10 Tracks to Echo in the Dark, three songs of which have been released as an EP: Connection – Echo in the Dark, Pt. 1.
From inter-band rivalries and in-band frictions to what keeps driving them on and why they believe their best album is yet to come, there's loads covered in the pod - and lots of laughs too!

Our series of bonus podcasts continues with Jim Maddock and David Jordan from Air Traffic picking their favourite albums of the 00s.
First up, Jim goes with Dizzee Rascal's Boy In Da Corner, the genre-crossing, game-changing debut from the London rapper which put grime in the mainstream. Like Dizzee, the Air Traffic boys were just in their teens when they signed their record deal and we discuss the pressures of being in the music industry at that age.
Then David goes for the brilliant Funeral by Arcade Fire - another classic of the era - which somehow leads to Rich's verdict on the latest (spoiler: brilliant) Libertines reunion shows!

This week on The Boys in the Band Podcast we're joined by David Jordan and Jim Maddock from Air Traffic.
One of BBC's Sounds of 2007, Air Traffic were a band in demand and, despite being still in their teens, had record labels fighting for their signatures. They ended up on a major label with EMI - and tell us about the excessive spending they enjoyed as part of that deal.
Sticking with the financials, we also learn about how band members get paid as part of a deal like that. But it wasn't all roses, with the guys discussing the impact of a vicious review in the NME on both their mental health and their trajectory.
In a wide-ranging chat we also find out how the band strangely became really big in Belgium - and why they went out to buy their own personal pool cues during the recording of their album...

Our series of bonus podcasts continues with James Walsh from Starsailor picking his favourite album of the 00s.
James makes the case for Wilco's Yankee Hotel Foxtrot as his favourite of the 2000s.
The band actually had to fight to get this released, with their record label refusing to put it out. That led to the band streaming it for free on their website before a different record company released it the following the year.
And it was a good job they fought for it too, with the album critically acclaimed and going on to be a big seller! James explains what makes the album special.
Remember you can catch our full chat with James about his band on our full-length Starsailor episode in our library.

This week on The Boys in the Band Podcast we're joined by James Walsh from Starsailor.
It's 20 years since the band's huge debut album Love Is Here landed and with Starsailor about to head off on an anniversary tour it was the perfect time for James to reflect on how that LP was written, its reception... and the pain of missing out on No1 to Kylie Minogue!
He also tells us how Four To The Floor from their second album became a remixed club hit in Europe, what it was like supporting The Rolling Stones, and working with Phil Spector.
We also chart the band's journey from being labelled as 'The best new band in Britain' by NME through to their upcoming tour and James' prolific solo work.
