There’s just ONE more thing… MinnMax Contributor Joe Juba (The Deepest Dive, The MinnMax Show) will talk The Mountain Goats and Silver Jews with Matt on this week’s episode of CrossFade! Now’s the time to ask Joe those burning questions about his music tastes. Or about yours. Or about anything under the sun!

This episode’s albums are “Heretic Pride” by The Mountain Goats (chosen by Joe) and “The Natural Bridge” by Silver Jews (chosen by Matt).

Leave a song for us to listen to, or ANY question about music on this post by Friday, April 29!

Never heard CrossFade? It’s free, fun, and sexy!

CrossFade is a music podcast on the MinnMax network hosted by Matt Helgeson and produced by Jason Dafnis. Matt and a guest swap some of their favorite music and listen into it with each other. It’s a great way to hear new music and hear smart people talk about some of their favorite music.

Also, it’s YOUR SHOW as MinnMax supporters, so ask questions, leave songs, and let us know what you think! Even if we don’t get to your song this episode, we’ll add it to the CrossFade Community Spotify Playlist (https://spoti.fi/3aRRgox) and your song might be pulled on a future Community Shuffle episode, so keep sharing!

CrossFade is free for everyone, so subscribe and share with a friend before the next episode publishes: https://apple.co/3kWBb5K

Thanks for checking it out!

Hey Joe, just want to say that if you like Mountain Goats and video games, check out John Darnielle's books. Good reads with themes of escapism.

Missed opportunity to make this a Purple Mountains Goats episode. RIP David Berman though, so sad.

What are some ACTUALLY good music videos? It seems rare (to me) for a music video to add anything meaningful to a song, or for it to be a better experience than just hearing it. I feel a bit bad for being dismissive of an entire medium, but I'm really and truly not interested in seeing bands pretend to play and sing.

How long do you have to listen to an artist before you KNOW they're one of your favorites?

What are some game/movie/tv soundtracks you absolutely love but have never played or watched? For example, I love the Katamari Damacy and Gravity Rush 2 soundtracks but have never played the games. Song suggestion - Rum Pum Pum by Lee Jin Ah: https://youtu.be/FmRXxNg3wIc Lee Jin Ah is a jazz pianist/singer-song writer who makes kpop music. Love the vocals and instruments in this song!

John Darnielle of The Mountain Goats has a very distinctive and instantly recognizable voice, like say The Tallest Man On Earth or the Alt-J's singer. How important do you find this? What are some of your favourite unique and distinctive voices?

I have a very silly question for you two. What's better, a) All the music of the musical group Boston, or b) All the music about the city of New York? Answer wisely, as the other city may bar you from entering. -Nick from Atlanta
