Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

This Dark Blue record was one of my favorites of the year. Sounds like it crawled out of some goth’s record collection circa 1985. Band also has a very entertaining Twitter account as well.
