  • Records My Partner Hates: 10 Albums Banished to Room 101
    This week it’s personal. Inspired by the classic TV format Room 101, we’re taking a long, hard look at our own record shelves and deciding which albums deserve eternal banishment. Ten records enter, only our grudges decide who leaves. From big-name albums that never clicked, to overhyped classics we can’t stand, to the odd record we’ve simply heard one too many times — nothing is safe.From Jess’s savage (and controversial) takedown of Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness (and Billy Corgan in general), to Marc’s brutal betrayal of Pet Sounds, we’re pulling no punches.Do you share a record collection with your partner? Which albums would you send packing to Room 101? Let us know in the comments – we’d love to hear your picks (and arguments).Across the CounterEvery week in the shop, something comes across the counter that makes us stop and go: oh yeah, that’s special. This week, our two heavyweight picks are:R.E.M. – Live at the Olympia in Dublin: five nights, 39 tracks, and the band inviting fans into their rehearsal space mid-Accelerate. A deluxe set with 4LPs, 2CDs, a DVD documentary (This Is Not a Show), plus booklet and poster.Oasis – 25th Anniversary editions: silver-vinyl reissues of their landmark albums, remastered from the original tapes by Owen Morris. For Be Here Now, it’s the first time the songs don’t just sound like they were recorded through a hangover — the detail finally cuts through the wall of noise.The Dead Air Records podcast is hosted by Marc and Jess.
