This episode marks a major milestone moment in the show. The boys find themselves asking, "Is this band bad?", as opposed to telling you, "This band is bad".

OMC, aka Otara Millionaires Club, is a one-hit-wonder with a novelty song — to most people. But singer Pauly Fuemana's story goes much deeper than that. And OMC is just the tip of the iceberg of a vibrant scene of Musika Pasifika.

Join us this week as the boys break their brains and try to understand how a band could be bad even though they made a good album.

As friend of the show Oscar Wilde once wrote, “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery that mediocrity can pay to greatness.” How 'bout that? Isn't that interesting? Fascinating stuff.

She Wants Revenge is a duo comprising Justin Warfield and Adam Bravin aka Adam 12, former DJ for Crazy Town (and Prince... And Obama...). They're a heavily produced goth-tinged post-punk band that had the goal of getting the cool kids on the dance floor. Warfield's journey has taken him from downbeat conscious-rap, to psych-rock, to rap inflected industrial, to She Want's Revenge's brand of what could be called post-punk.

Join us as Jerry and Andrew discuss things like "authenticity", sticking to themes, nailing a sound perhaps at the cost of having substance, and gothic post-punk written for people who wanna fuck.
