Published by EarWax Team
EarWax is a deep-dive music podcast hosted by two longtime record store clerks, Hilary and Cody, who are steeped in music history. Each week, we unpack the story of a single album - how it was made, where it fits in the cultural moment that shaped it, and why it still matters. From iconic classics to cult gems, we explore the music that moves us and the stories that stick. You’ll also hear about the latest releases and what’s buzzing in our world of vinyl bins and liner notes. Think of it like your favorite record store hang, just in podcast form. EarWax is for anyone who loves music with context, history, and heart.

<html><p>We need you folks to help determine whether or not this week's album is truly a concept record.</p><p>Cody and Hilary debate (not really, it's not a concept album) the conceptness of Glen Campbell's "Rhinestone Cowboy". </p><p>In the midst of a career slump, relative to his stellar career, of course, Campbell linked up with a couple of pop producers and churned out a record full of proto-yacht rock grooves and earnest sadboy lyrics.</p><p>Gorgeous production and immaculate execution, "Rhinestone Cowboy" rocketed Glen Campbell right back where he belongs among the music royalty.</p><p>Check out everything we have going on via the info below:</p><ul><li><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/earwaxpod/" target="_blank">@earwaxpod</a></p></li><li><p>TikTok: <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@earwaxpod" target="_blank">@earwaxpod</a></p></li><li><p>Email: <a href="mailto:earwaxpod@gmail.com" target="_blank">earwaxpod@gmail.com</a></p></li></ul><p><em><strong>Credits:</strong></em><em><strong><br/></strong></em>Produced by Hilary Miller, Claudia Rivera Tinsley, Spencer Belden, and Cody Tinsley</p><p>Edited by Claudia Rivera Tinsley</p><p>All original music written and performed by Spencer Belden</p><p>Artwork by Hilary Miller</p></html>
<html><p>New releases galore! How about Neil Young crossing the 50 album mark?</p><p>But really, we all know what the big headline is this week. Bon Iver writing a bar jingle! Meatloaf dippers!</p><p>But really really, Spencer leads the way as we chat about what's coming out, as well as the public outcry from Macklemore being removed from Ed Sheeran's tour.</p><p>Tune in and hear our takes on all the new drops and headlines.</p><p>Free Palestine.</p><p>Check out everything we have going on via the info below:</p><ul><li><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/earwaxpod/" target="_blank">@earwaxpod</a></p></li><li><p>TikTok: <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@earwaxpod" target="_blank">@earwaxpod</a></p></li><li><p>Email: <a href="mailto:earwaxpod@gmail.com" target="_blank">earwaxpod@gmail.com</a></p></li></ul><p><em><strong>Credits:</strong></em><em><strong><br/></strong></em>Produced by Hilary Miller, Claudia Rivera Tinsley, Spencer Belden, and Cody Tinsley</p><p>Edited by Claudia Rivera Tinsley</p><p>All original music written and performed by Spencer Belden</p><p>Artwork by Hilary Miller</p></html>
<html><p>Crank this one up well past the point of your ears hurting. It's only fitting you walk away from this week's episode with a touch of tinnitus. </p><p>Hilary and Cody try to get their arms around the story behind My Bloody Valentine's "Loveless." The narratives clash, compete, and careen - much like the music on this record.</p><p>Is Kevin Shields a genius? Perhaps. Is 19 studios too many studios? Also perhaps.</p><p>But without a doubt, "Loveless" is a cornerstone of shoegaze, and its story is as fascinating as the tunes within.</p><p>Check out everything we have going on via the info below:</p><ul><li><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/earwaxpod/" target="_blank">@earwaxpod</a></p></li><li><p>TikTok: <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@earwaxpod" target="_blank">@earwaxpod</a></p></li><li><p>Email: <a href="mailto:earwaxpod@gmail.com" target="_blank">earwaxpod@gmail.com</a></p></li></ul><p><em><strong>Credits:</strong></em><em><strong><br/></strong></em>Produced by Hilary Miller, Claudia Rivera Tinsley, Spencer Belden, and Cody Tinsley</p><p>Edited by Claudia Rivera Tinsley</p><p>All original music written and performed by Spencer Belden</p><p>Artwork by Hilary Miller</p></html>

<html><p>We are baaaaaaaaaack!!!! The EarWax crew braces the unrelenting heat to bring you a fresh episode. And what an album to bring us back - Chaka Khan's "I Feel For You".</p><p>Where does one go after almost a decade of fronting the unbelievably funky Rufus? She goes out on her own and rules the early 80s, obviously. With appearances by Melle Mel, Stevie Wonder, a song written by Prince, and plenty of Chaka's fire, "I Feel For You" showed that she was going to stay around well beyond the 70s.</p><p>Chaka Khan stays crushing it to this day, and this record...well, just go listen.</p><p>Check out everything we have going on via the info below:</p><ul><li><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/earwaxpod/" target="_blank">@earwaxpod</a></p></li><li><p>TikTok: <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@earwaxpod" target="_blank">@earwaxpod</a></p></li><li><p>Email: <a href="mailto:earwaxpod@gmail.com" target="_blank">earwaxpod@gmail.com</a></p></li></ul><p><em><strong>Credits:</strong></em><em><strong><br/></strong></em>Produced by Hilary Miller, Claudia Rivera Tinsley, Spencer Belden, and Cody Tinsley</p><p>Edited by Claudia Rivera Tinsley</p><p>All original music written and performed by Spencer Belden</p><p>Artwork by Hilary Miller</p></html>
<html><p>Welcome welcome to Music This Week. Spencer guides our return through a few albums that dropped during the break.</p><p>But really, this one is all about Dolly, as it should be. The biggest music news of the summer, and of the year, is the passing of country music royalty. Dolly Parton was and is an icon, and it was an honor to spend a few minutes talking about her legacy - in and beyond music.</p><p>Check out everything we have going on via the info below:</p><ul><li><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/earwaxpod/" target="_blank">@earwaxpod</a></p></li><li><p>TikTok: <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@earwaxpod" target="_blank">@earwaxpod</a></p></li><li><p>Email: <a href="mailto:earwaxpod@gmail.com" target="_blank">earwaxpod@gmail.com</a></p></li></ul><p><em><strong>Credits:</strong></em><em><strong><br/></strong></em>Produced by Hilary Miller, Claudia Rivera Tinsley, Spencer Belden, and Cody Tinsley</p><p>Edited by Claudia Rivera Tinsley</p><p>All original music written and performed by Spencer Belden</p><p>Artwork by Hilary Miller</p></html>
<html><p>One more before the EarWax crew takes a summer break, so let's make it iconic, yeah?</p><p><em>Born This Way. </em>Lady Gaga. You already know it. Now come learn about Mother Monster and one of most "most" albums of the 2010s. </p><p>Hilary and Cody try to get their arms around an album that is a relentless onslaught of pop, helmed by an artiste who makes no bones about pushing to be a superstar.</p><p>Whether gay, straight, or bi, lesbian, transgender life, <em>Born This Way </em>was made to be cranked waaaaaaaay up.</p><p>Thanks for hanging with us since we've come back, and we will see you all on September 4th!</p><p>Check out everything we have going on via the info below:</p><ul><li><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/earwaxpod/" target="_blank">@earwaxpod</a></p></li><li><p>TikTok: <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@earwaxpod" target="_blank">@earwaxpod</a></p></li><li><p>Email: <a href="mailto:earwaxpod@gmail.com" target="_blank">earwaxpod@gmail.com</a></p></li></ul><p><em><strong>Credits:</strong></em><em><strong><br/></strong></em>Produced by Hilary Miller, Claudia Rivera Tinsley, Spencer Belden, and Cody Tinsley</p><p>Edited by Claudia Rivera Tinsley</p><p>All original music written and performed by Spencer Belden</p><p>Artwork by Hilary Miller</p></html>
<html><p>Whatever will you do without us talking about Music This Week for the next couple of months? Well, don't worry about that right now. Instead, tune into what we've got going on one more time before our summer break!</p><p>Spencer hits us up with some new releases, and stories about a Tarantino/Kylie Minogue collab, the resurgence of The Cardigans (hell yeah), and plenty of other goodies.</p><p>We got the news.

<html><p>1989 was a year soooo fine in hip-hop. Queen Latifah was right at the top of the class with her debut album <em>All Hail the Queen</em>.</p><p>DJ Mark the 45 King chose some elite samples to pair with Queen Latifah's buttery smooth flows. Packed with empowering bars, and what's that?...an electro club jam? Well, I'll be.</p><p>Hilary and Cody marvel at the production of this album, the elegance of those who grace the mic, and the total radiance of Queen Latifah!</p><p>Check out everything we have going on via the info below:</p><ul><li><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/earwaxpod/" target="_blank">@earwaxpod</a></p></li><li><p>TikTok: <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@earwaxpod" target="_blank">@earwaxpod</a></p></li><li><p>Email: <a href="mailto:earwaxpod@gmail.com" target="_blank">earwaxpod@gmail.com</a></p></li></ul><p><em><strong>Credits:</strong></em><em><strong><br/></strong></em>Produced by Hilary Miller, Claudia Rivera Tinsley, Spencer Belden, and Cody Tinsley</p><p>Edited by Claudia Rivera Tinsley</p><p>All original music written and performed by Spencer Belden</p><p>Artwork by Hilary Miller</p></html>

<html><p>Is your rage at an all time high right now? Not sure where the outlet is? This record is your answer, and this week's episode will tell you all about it!</p><p>The Dicks' <em>Kill From the Heart </em>is 0% subtle. All gas. Gary Floyd's pointed lyrics (he wrote all the songs, mostly, except the ones he didn't write) mix with the fiery energy of the Buxf Parrot, Glen Taylor and Pat Deason. The concoction is volatile, but you can't help but coming back for more.</p><p>Cody and Hilary hang on for dear life talking about throwing liver into the crowd, why the dobro works on a hardcore record, and just how much Dicks emphasize precisely where they stand.</p><p>It rocks. It educates. It confronts. It punches you in the face and tells you it's gonna do it again. <em>Kill From the Heart </em>lets you know...the Dicks are coming.</p><p>Check out everything we have going on via the info below:</p><ul><li><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/earwaxpod/" target="_blank">@earwaxpod</a></p></li><li><p>TikTok: <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@earwaxpod" target="_blank">@earwaxpod</a></p></li><li><p>Email: <a href="mailto:earwaxpod@gmail.com" target="_blank">earwaxpod@gmail.com</a></p></li></ul><p><em><strong>Credits:</strong></em><em><strong><br/></strong></em>Produced by Hilary Miller, Claudia Rivera Tinsley, Spencer Belden, and Cody Tinsley</p><p>Edited by Claudia Rivera Tinsley</p><p>All original music written and performed by Spencer Belden</p><p>Artwork by Hilary Miller</p></html>
<html><p>Plenty of hot hot hot new release and some goss goss goss...eh, I don't love that one, but whatever, we're keeping it. </p><p>Spencer leads the way, considering the new vanguard of pop stars, and giving flowers to a pop star making their way back to the spotlight.</p><p>What's coming out this week?

<html><p>Power ballads forever! That's our official take, especially after this week's episode of EarWax.</p><p>More. MORE. MOOOAAAAR! That's the theme and vibe of Céline Dion's <em>Falling Into You. </em>With producers galore and vocals that soar, this record is ALL. Simply ALL, and then some. </p><p>Motorcycles, intrigue, Meat Loaf, David Letterman? Oh, it all connects, baby.

<html><p>If landmark records that are kinda remixes and also kinda historically murky are your jams, then look no further. The EarWax crew has you covered this week, chopping it up about the dub classic <em>King Tubbys Meets Rockers Uptown.</em></p><p>Cody and Hilary discuss very pressing matters such as the various Augustus Pablos, the coolness of names (and there are plenty of cool names on this album), and the unbelievable genius that was King Tubby.</p><p>This record is on the ground floor of remixing culture, and its influence has spread far, far beyond reggae/dub. The players on the master tapes that Augustus Pablo brought in are a laundry list legends in the scene. To have them all on one album, and throw in King Tubbys immense talent as well...man, what an embarrassment of riches!</p><p>Check out everything we have going on via the info below:</p><ul><li><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/earwaxpod/" target="_blank">@earwaxpod</a></p></li><li><p>TikTok: <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@earwaxpod" target="_blank">@earwaxpod</a></p></li><li><p>Email: <a href="mailto:earwaxpod@gmail.com" target="_blank">earwaxpod@gmail.com</a></p></li></ul><p><em><strong>Credits:</strong></em><em><strong><br/></strong></em>Produced by Hilary Miller, Claudia Rivera Tinsley, Spencer Belden, and Cody Tinsley</p><p>Edited by Claudia Rivera Tinsley</p><p>All original music written and performed by Spencer Belden</p><p>Artwork by Hilary Miller</p></html>

<html><p>We love showing L.A. love. And Los Angeles (and more specifically, East Los Angeles) loves Los Lobos! </p><p><em>How Will the Wolf Survive? </em>was the group's breakthrough record, after finding a home inside the Sunset Strip punk scene of the 80s. The fascinating mix of rock, country, traditional Mexican music, and everything in between gives Los Lobos the keys to the doors of many genres.</p><p>A smart, sharp record that cooks as much as it educates, <em>How Will the Wolf Survive?</em> took Los Lobos from playing sets alongside the Blasters and the Germs into the national conscience. And they have not only survived, but they are still absolutely killing it to this day.</p><p>Check out everything we have going on via the info below:</p><ul><li><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/earwaxpod/" target="_blank">@earwaxpod</a></p></li><li><p>TikTok: <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@earwaxpod" target="_blank">@earwaxpod</a></p></li><li><p>Email: <a href="mailto:earwaxpod@gmail.com" target="_blank">earwaxpod@gmail.com</a></p></li></ul><p><em><strong>Credits:</strong></em><em><strong><br/></strong></em>Produced by Hilary Miller, Claudia Rivera Tinsley, Spencer Belden, and Cody Tinsley</p><p>Edited by Claudia Rivera Tinsley</p><p>All original music written and performed by Spencer Belden</p><p>Artwork by Hilary Miller</p></html>

<html><p>Calm. Vibes. Futuristic. Ethereal. Brilliant. This is Brian Eno. And this is Ambient 1: Music for Airports - the focus of this week's episode of EarWax.</p><p>Where do you go after Roxy Music? Oh, I don't know, how about a crazy run of incredible solo albums leading up to this one? Eno was already basically a legend, so why not just try something out? Recovering from a car wreck, my guy decided to spearhead a whole new genre. And so he did, and he channeled his...interesting take on airports into the glory we hear on record.</p><p>Oh and also Hilary recounts the whole history of muzak (and Muzak) while Cody is amazed at it all.
