Whilst the band are making it big overseas, there's always time for lil' NZ, with an upcoming show at Studio, this might be your one chance this year to check 'em out. Don't miss out.

Deerhunter released a new album today and Lockett dials in to have a nice lil' chat with Mikey about it. Why Hasn't Everything Already Disappeared?, concerns the disappearance of culture, of humanity, of nature, of logic and of emotion. Lockett descibes the process behind this album, the longetivity of the band and even the band's forecast for the next two years. Featuring the title track, Death In Midsummer, this album is definitely worth a long listen.

Talking the importance of mental health, and raising awareness for people who are struggling with their upcoming gig on Waiheke Island. A percentage of the ticket sale proceeds will go to The Key to Life Trust which supports mental health awareness programs and the suicide prevention program Tū Kotahi. Oh, and because bFM loves you (and we know you love a sweet deal), get $15 tickets with the discount 'together'. Nice.

What could be more festive than The Beths? After Rolling Stone named Happy Unhappy the song of the summer, (no big deal, right?!) Liz joins Mikey to talk about what their summer looks like. And it's safe to say it's looking like A Very Beths Xmas this year, ooooh nice.
