Electrelane & Erase Errata with Erin Margaret Day

CrossFade: The Dueling Album Review Show

It’s a mid-aughts extravaganza on CrossFade, featuring writer, critic, connoisseur and musician Erin Margaret Day (https://twitter.com/comeawaywithEMD)!

Between English indie rockers Electrelane and SF experimental rock group Erase Errata, get ready for rock, noise, ambience, and more rock! With Erin, we break down the radical roots of these bands and the kind of music they play, what Electrelane’s largely instrumental album is saying without words, and how sometimes the sound of hopelessness actually kinda rocks.

Find Erin’s work, including her writing and seasonal playlists, at https://comeawaywithemd.com/, and check out her contributions to Bandcamp Daily at https://daily.bandcamp.com/contributors/erinmargaretday

We’d love it if you’d rate and review the show on iTunes, ‘cause it means more people can find the show and love it, too! You can find Matt and Jason on Twitter at https://twitter.com/MattHelgeson and https://twitter.com/nintendufus respectively and in the #music channel of the MinnMax Discord server.
