    Jennifer

    • Forbidden Colours – Ryuichi Sakomoto and David Sylvian

  8. Was planting my garden seeds this weekend and the wife broke into song, the Sisters of Mercy “Bury Me Deep” . . . can you play that as an homage to us gardeners? :)

  9. Particularly great show!

  10. That first hour was for the DW books!

    Hearing MBV’s “I Only Said” made me remember seeing them live on their most recent US tour, and anyone who saw them at that time will recall that feeling when they opened with that tune and all were first hit with the sonic wave.

    Here are some requests for this week –

    Depeche Mode – Shake the Disease (101 album if possible, thanks!)
    The Cult – Hollow Man

    Thanks!

  11. As always, another terrific show! I’d love to hear the following in upcoming shows:

    Swallow – Follow Me Down
    New Model Army – Better Than Them
    SWANS – Love Will Save You
    Ian McCulloch – Lover, Lover, Lover

  12. Nice balance in all three hours Matt. Morrissey- I Know it’s Going to Happen Someday would be sweet.
    Have a better than expected week all.

  13. Absolutely wonderful show as always.

    In the ident bumper for the show in which she states, “we want your blood”, what is the song that is playing? This has plagued me for a long while and I would be overjoyed to finally put that mystery to rest.

  14. For Gary Numan’s 63rd birthday, even though it’s today, might I please heareth “Crash” from the Dance album which is especially a win since Rogert Taylor of Queen bands the brings on it!!!!
    MAKE DARKWAVE A SIRIUS CHANNEL!!!!!

  15. haunted when the minutes drag

    Ride, Slowdive, and Lush. Hard to get much better. Surprised MBV was played in hour one, rather than with those three. No complaints though. I just love to hear them no matter what.

  16. Second half of Hour Two was perfect. Thanks for a great show this week. Have a good one.

  17. Listened to the show a second time cause I dozed off. Did I hear two shoegaze sets? Matt looking forward to next week requesting The Catherine Wheel Delicious or Judy Staring at the Sun. Thank you

  18. Lance Baker

    Moev Rotting Geraniums
    Human League Seconds
    Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark Joan of Arc

  19. Love this show. Always discovering new (old) bands. I have a special request. Can you play ALIEN SEX FIEND – IGNORE THE MACHINE.

    Peace from Windsor, Canada

  20. Constantine

    I’m not even going to request anything this week …. just have to say that, at least for me, that may be the most perfect 3 hours of music that is IMPOSSIBLE to hear on radio now or ever …. except you are somehow doing it Matt !!!
    Literally ONLY reason to keep my subscription is this show

    Much Respect

    Constantine

  21. Great show as usual. I know you aren’t opposed to newer music on your show now and then so, in that spirit, could you please play:

    Nine Inch Nails – Find My Way

    Thanks much.
