EP. 57 | Perfume Genius | Glory

This month we struggle with very conscious bias when we discuss
how much we love Perfume Genius' new album Glory. Welcome to
Episode 57 of This is Not Happening (TINH), an Album of the
Month (AOTM) Podcast. 


In Part 1 we deep dive into an Album that one of us has chosen
and in Part 2 we play 'Spin it or Bin it'.  We pick a theme
and each pick a song that represents that theme. We judge the
selections by asking the question 'Spin It or Bin It'?

In Part 1, Joey is in the seat and basically bangs on
about how much he loves Perfume Genius.

In Part 2, we celebrate contemporary queer music and play
Spin It or Bin It with the theme. Joey's track is unfairly and
poorly treated ... as is David's but two other bangers make up
for it.

                 
                 
 ----- Part 1 | Perfume Genius | 'Glory' -----


I love Perfume Genius. Always have ... barring something horrific
happening, I always will. I love him so much that I get nervous
when a new album comes out. And this one is a belter. But is it
for the fan-people or is there enough to attract and entertain
newcomers?

Listen to the album, listen to the pod, tell us what you think.

           ----- Part 2 |
Spin It or Bin It | 'Contemporary Queer' -----


Music has always been massive to the Gay and Queer community and
has always been an interesting area of crossover. Has it changed?
What ever, we're here to celebrate.


David chose 'Cinderella' by Model/Actriz.

Joey chose 'The Giver' by Chappell Roan.

Nolan chose 'Blind (Frankie Knuckles Remix' by
Hercules and Love Affair

Guy chose 'Tilted' by Christine and the Queens.
