This week Nick talks to Jack Clothier, co-founder of the legendary Alcopop! Records, home to acts such as Art Brut, BO NINGEN, DZ Deathrays, The Spook School and Dream Nails. Over the course of this conversation Jack talks about several bands he’s been in spanning his teenage and adult years, including his secondary school band Milo, uni band Monsters for Gods, the slightly mixed critical reception to his metal years in the band ‘Rue the Day’, and finally his amazing concept band of recent years (listen to find out more). Stay tuned also for at least three small anecdotes about Nick’s own band experiences!
