#097 - EuroCup Anthems Ranked | Butterfly 3000 | “Viral or Eyeroll”: Music of 1997

Eurocup 2020 has finally arrived and Jay’s brought his favorite national anthem from each group to the show this week for a little side contest of sorts. We rate each based on originality and artistic merit, tally the scores and come up with our own tournament winners.
Song: The Sheepdogs - Rock & Roll (Ain’t No Simple Thing)

King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard just released their 18th album Butterfly 3000 &, while it’s first time hearing the band, Nick is all in. The album is very different from their previous efforts, which is actually a common trait of the band. This time they bring a Psychedelic/Prog/Pop sound to the table and, everyone concurs, it is an absolute joy of a listen!
Song: King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard - Catching Smoke

For our ninety-seventh episode, Greg brings us the music of 1997. After a run through of the best albums released, Greg decided to take the newsworthy events of the year and turn them into the latest edition of “Viral or Eyeroll”. The competition is fierce as Nick & Jay battle it out, trying to recall obscure moments from their sophomore year in High School. Another good adaptation of our ongoing 90s in the 90s & quite enjoyable to boot!
Song: Radiohead - “Airbag”
