About this episode
Jon Langford and Sally Timms of the Mekons discuss their new album and its remix.
Last year, the legendary post-punk collective Mekons released HORROR (Fire Records), their first new album in five years. They've just released a dub remix version of songs from that record, entitled HORRORble (Mekons Vs. Tony Maimone In Dub Conference) and founding member Jon Langford is here with longtime bandmate Sally Timms for their Record Store Day Podcast debut to unpack the new mixes and the history of a band that's been operating under the Mekons banner since founding the group in Leeds, England, during the heady punk times of 1977.
