Broadcast and the Focus Group Investigate Witch Cults of the Radio Age (2009) Music Thread

[Bob the Ninja]

Any Broadcast fans on here? They were fantastic. Sadly, stopped in their prime.

 

[Bandit]

Yeah, they were an excellent band. They would have gone on to bigger things if it hadn't been for Trish Keenan's death.

This was their most experimental album. "The Be Colony" is probably the best track on this album.

"I Found the F" (Tender Buttons album) is one of my favourite songs ever.

I see a lot of their influence in some bands of the last few years, especially spoken word tracks

Broadcast was a fairly underrated band that I liked a lot. I think Trish Keenan was a fantastic vocalist, and the band, in general, was really unique and imaginative.

This collaborative album with the Focus Group is definitely more experimental than their previous albums.

I would seriously recommend them to anybody who loves indie music because this group was highly influential within that space.

I would say Jane Weaver is hugely influenced by them
