Season 10 Episode 10: Slam Dunk Festival preview (Feat. Static Dress, Taking Back Sunday, Goldfinger and more)

Matt and James sit down to discuss this year’s exciting edition of the mighty Slam Dunk Festival. Matt will be attending once again, so we thought we should chat about two of our favourite things, emo bands and logistics!

We work our way through the set times (the correct one after James started with the 2024 version in front of him) and discuss who Matt should see and why. We debate the merits of seeing older bands that Matt has seen a million times before, rather than new bands. We work out tactics for seeing as many bands as possible, without being so exhausted that Matt just goes home.

Should he see TBS? Dance to Good Charlotte or mosh to Knocked Loose? Pay attention to the hype around President? Or just sunbathe? We cover it all and more.

Season 10 Episode 9: Time is running out (Feat. Like Roses, Future Teens, Angine de Poitrine and more)

As Matt Bellamy once said, time is running out. We’re backs against the wall at Emo Dad HQ so we thought we’d do a quick ep to tie the season up and give us a little bit of breathing space.

We’re against the clock so are an effort to stay FOCUSED and to the point, which basically means that Matt just hammers James with odd questions.

We discuss some new bands which James is enjoying, the problem with having a new iPhone, the best way to press buttons, everyone’s favourite new band, Angine de Poitrine and so much more.

It’s a speedy one, so good luck trying to keep up, we’ll be back before you know it with more nonsense and cool bands.

Season 10 Episode 8: Emo Dad talks to LØLØ

Matt and James were delighted to sit down for a lovely chat with pop-rock trailblazer LØLØ.

If you aren’t already familiar with LØLØ from her collaborations with Simple Plan and Maggie Lindemann, she has carved out a lane entirely her own, cementing herself as one of today’s most compelling, confessional voices with 150M+ global streams. Kerrang! called her “One of the most exciting new rock stars on the planet.”

LØLØ has just released her sophomore album, ‘god forbid a girl spits out her feelings,’ via Fearless Records. The 13-track LP marks a bold new chapter for the Toronto native, expanding on the raw, rebellious world she’s built with a body of work that’s equal parts vulnerable, sharp-tongued, and unapologetically honest.

We discuss the new album, what it feels like to release such personal songs, her relationship with social media having built a massive following, playing tours with the likes of New Found Glory, and so much more.

We loved this conversation and hope you do too.
