Hide the Kitchen Knives by The Paper Chase - 332

Download

John Congleton is a great producer, and as it turns out, also a great musician. The Paper Chase were, for many years, his only musical project and even as his star began to rise as a producer, he was still churning out unsettling, chromatic, occasionally catchy, often nasty music. Often described as a combination of avant-garde jazz, indie and punk, the band tick all of those boxes and much more.

This week we're talking about their second album, Hide the Kitchen Knives which helpfully/frustratingly is only available on YouTube. An album so twisted that it actually gave Mark nightmares. We also talk about the band's discography at large and chat about why some albums never seem to make it to streaming platforms.
