FNNW 9/19

This week, we steer the Road Trip van into Sydney — where the synths had a tan, the post-punk had a pulse, and the scene was equal parts art school and pub crawl. We’ll hear from a glammy band with a name problem, a snarling duo who made angst sound catchy, and a local act that never crossed over but probably should’ve.

Also: a number-one UK album that barely cracked the U.S. Top 40, a punk icon doubling down on his band's legacy, and one solo track from a frontman who out-weirded even his own band.

As always, three hours of vintage new wave, erratic mood swings, and listener requests that may or may not be a cry for help. Chat’s live. Show’s live. Your alibi can wait. fnnw.live, 8 PM Eastern, 7 PM Central.
