The Hope and Anchor: The spiritual home of pub rock

 

If the audio stops playing, press stop and allow time for the stream to load.  

This week, we listen to Post-Pub Rock. But is it music to listen to after coming home from the pub, rock and roll that came out in the wake of Pub Rock or a synthesis of Pub Rock and Post Rock? You decide. (Clue: not the last one.) Thanks to Steve Eastty, Ross Fall, Adam Leroy, Gareth Meredith, Gary Blake, Alex Mazonowicz, Dirk Vermeiren, Ben Reed Colin Sutcliffe and David O'Byrne for suggestions.
