Opshop in 2005 found themselves in a bit of a flux. "You Are Here" was their platinum selling debut, but line up changes meant the band were feeling the pressure to find their new sound and then, follow up such a successful first outing.

But as you'll hear, pressure creates diamonds. In this episode, Vocalist Jason Kerrison and drummer Bobby Kennedy talk through the band's internal struggles with uncertainty around the albums direction, through to it's ultimate success, and production team Greg Haver and Clint Murphy dive into the detail around crafting the album's sound. Plus special guest - film maker Adam Jones details how he caught the whole thing on film for "Second Hand Planet - The Documentary".
