  • 60 Minutes or less - Episode 39 - CIVIC
    Welcome to ’60 Minutes or less’ - the podcast from Birthday Cake For Breakfast - where for episode 39, we welcome Aussie punks CIVIC, as we’re joined by vocalist Jim McCullogh and bassist Roland Hlavka. There’s also the occasional interjection from guitarist Lewis Hodgson before he crashed out asleep on the floor of their hotel room.On our radar for a number of years now, CIVIC have put out a handful of choice records since the release of the ‘New Vietnam’ 12 inch in 2018, each packed with snarling punk rippers. But it was their 2023 released album ‘Taken By Force’ that really had us hooked, particularly the anthemic ‘Blood Rushes’, easily a single of the year contender. We caught up over Zoom a week ahead of the band releasing their latest album ‘Chrome Dipped’ (out now via ATO Records). CIVIC had just landed in the states ahead of a run of US shows, but were good sports in putting the world to rights, discussing the new record, the Aussie music landscape and musically shedding your skin.At the time of putting this out the band are in Europe on tour and are well worth seeking out.If you like the episode, let us know - follow us on your favourite streaming platform and follow Birthday Cake For Breakfast on all the socials.

  • 60 Minutes or less - Episode 38 - David Yow (The Jesus Lizard)
    Welcome to ’60 Minutes or less’ - A podcast from Birthday Cake For Breakfast - where for episode 38, we welcome noise royalty, as we’re joined by David Yow of The Jesus Lizard!In episode 37, we spoke with Andrew Falkous of Mclusky / Future of the Left, another noisy man of note and if you recall, he spoke very fondly of Mr Yow. As we’d already spoken with David a few months prior, it only made sense to put these episodes out back to back.Trailblazers from the late 80s through to the 90s, The Jesus Lizard put out a number of pivotal records before calling it a day at the end of the decade. After a few reunion specials, the band got back together proper in 2017 and in September 2024, released ‘Rack’ - their first album together in 26 years!We caught up over Zoom to talk about the record, as well as his friendship with Andy Gill of Gang Of Four, spending some of his childhood in the UK and the desire to record new music somewhere tropical. Stick with it till the end to hear an incredible David Lynch impression too!But it started as all good interviews do, with a blank screen for 10 minutes, your host worrying that the guest was giving it a miss or - at the very worst - had passed into another realm. Thankfully, David soon appeared to explain his absence and we got onto the pressing matter of what’s good on TV these days.If you like the episode, let us know - follow us on your favourite streaming platform and follow Birthday Cake For Breakfast on all the socials.

  • 60 Minutes or less - Episode 37 - Andrew Falkous (Mclusky / Future of the Left)
    Welcome to ’60 Minutes or less’ - a podcast from Birthday Cake For Breakfast - where for episode 37, we welcome a noisy man of note and king of third division indie rock, Andrew Falkous of Mclusky and Future of the Left!Formed in Cardiff in the late ‘90s, Mclusky released three critically-acclaimed albums before disbanding in 2005. After some time away - with Falkous taking a side-step in the intervening years to form Future of the Left - Mclusky reformed proper in 2019 with an updated line-up and they've been back at it on the gigging front. In May 2025, Mclusky put out their first new album in 20 years (the fourth Mclusky album overall) - ‘the world is still here and so are we’ (font in lowercase, very hip), the record released via their new home of Ipecac Recordings. We caught up with a somewhat tired Falkous over Zoom in mid-May after he’d just returned from a run of shows in Europe. As expected, we covered the new Mclusky album, as well as The Jesus Lizard, ear issues, Sting and his tantric sexual endeavours and the pointlessness of a numerical rating.If you like the episode, let us know - follow us on your favourite streaming platform and follow Birthday Cake For Breakfast on all the socials.

  • 60 Minutes or less - Episode 36 - Barry Hyde (The Futureheads)
    Welcome to ’60 Minutes or less’ - the podcast from Birthday Cake For Breakfast - where for episode 36, it's a real treat to have on total hero Barry Hyde, he of The Futureheads!Having had fellow Future-head Ross Millard on for episode 23, it only made sense to interview Barry, particularly as in March 2025, Hyde released a new solo album in ’Miners’ Ballads’ (via Sirenspire Records).A folk-rock-punk-classical album about the coal mining heritage of the North East of England, it features traditional collier lyrics and observes the dangers, difficulties and bravery that was a part of daily life for the miners.We also spoke of his tribute EP to the late Ivor Cutler, the joy of working with his fellow Futureheads and the trials of making scotch eggs.If you like the episode, let us know - follow us on your favourite streaming platform and follow Birthday Cake For Breakfast on all the socials.

  • 60 Minutes or less - Episode 35 - Warmduscher
    Welcome to ’60 Minutes or less’ - the podcast from Birthday Cake For Breakfast - where for episode 35, we jump back in time to late 2024, when we had the pleasure of interviewing the incomparable Warmduscher!A proper motley crew, Warmduscher have been ripping it for over a decade now, releasing five full lengths that dabble in sleazy funk, raucous post-punk and bleary-eyed disco. In early November 2024 - a week ahead of releasing their latest record ’Too Cold To Hold’ (via Strap Originals) - we caught up with the band before a headline show at The Ritz in Manchester, squeezing into a room backstage with Clams Baker Jr. and Ben Romans Hopcraft to talk about the new record, public opinion of Warmduscher and much more. The record features a number of brilliant guest spots - from Irvine Welsh to Lianne La Havas to Confidence Man’s Janet Planet - but we also touched on a few dream collabs that have eluded them, like Grace Jones! Can you imagine?As is often the case, interviews ahead of shows come with certain challenges - mainly location and time related - and as such, you’ll hear quite a bit of the awesome power from support band Hot Wax, who were sound checking at the time. There’s a healthy amount of random people coughing and doors being opened and closed too, but hey - Ben and Clams were good sports throughout and projected well, but do excuse the extra noise…If you like the episode, let us know - follow us on your favourite streaming platform and follow Birthday Cake For Breakfast on all the socials.
