  • Episode #8 - Jed Morgans (Hideous Mink, Opus Kink)
    Nov 19 2025
    It’s episode 8 of the fierce panda podcast called Birth. School. ROCK! Death. What can possibly go wrong? Nothing at all as this week magazine editor, label boss and frantic muso Jed Morgans hits the SO sofa. Last week he played his wild saxamaphone onstage in Opus Kink at a rampant Electric Ballroom. Last whenever, his Hideous Mink label released the toweringly glowering ‘Hideous Collective’ compimilation album, chocful of all your latest perverted leftfield loves. And lastly, but never leastly, Tanzana’s ‘Covert’ supercool single is tickling our Scottish indie pinky punk eardrums. Honk Kong, indeed…

  • Episode #7 - Simon Williams (Fierce Panda)
    Nov 10 2025
    It’s the seventh episode of Birth. School. ROCK! Death. and we are smashing through the fourth wall as this week’s Fierce Panda podcast guest is…Simon Williams from Fierce Panda as he prepares to curate the Tonic Music parlour at Shiiine On festival later this week. Jed Morgans from Hideous Mink asks the questions while Simon sits in the hot spot of the sofa to gurgle softly about the highs of ELO and the Farmer’s Boys while merrily misremembering key facts about his own back furry back catalogue. Good times, people. Good times.

  • Episode #6 - Angus Rogers (Opus Kink)
    Nov 3 2025
    Episode Six of Birth. School. ROCK! Death. has snuck in through the back door, glowering at the scatter cushions and casting a giant dark shadow over the hearth rug. Because this week’s fierce panda podcast finds Opus Kink singer Angus Rogers in full seething effect as he rattles through the tracks of his tears. With his band of skronking jazz post-punkas preparing to decimate the Electric Ballroom on November 7th the mighty frontman talks poetry, passion and passionately poetic farewells. Top lad.

  • Episode #2 - Tim Wheeler (Ash)
    Oct 6 2025
    The second episode of Birth. School. ROCK! Death. brings Tim Wheeler and his five fruity song choices to the SO sofa. As Ash head to the stars, and indeed to the stores, with their excellent ‘Ad Astra’ album, the Northern Irish power punk popper spills the beans on breaking America in all the wrong ways and playing onstage with Coldplay at Wembley as well as ruminating over 30something years of ever-youthful melodic mayhem.

  • Episode #1 - Louis Eliot (Rialto)
    Sep 29 2025
    Episode #1 of Birth. School. ROCK! Death. sees Louis Eliot, debonair driving force behind RIALTO, talk about life in a ‘90s band too louche for Britpop and lost on the musical margins for much of this century. Until that is the release of current Fierce Panda album ‘Neon & Ghost Signs’, a poignant return to Noirpop form which warranted a headline Scala show and a slew of springtime Supergrass supports. Louis’ own Birth. School. ROCK! Death journey lands just as Rialto tour with Louise Wener’s Sleeper. Lou, Lou electric Lou, in every sense…
