Guest

Dylan Slocum

Favorite band of that one person you went to high school with who still listens to pop-punk, but has also been divorced.


In a Sound and the Story first, I interview Dylan Slocum of Spanish Love Songs about their album schmaltz. We talk about Dylan’s painful journey south and the mechanics of mediocrity.

Full chronilogical playlist (all songs by Spanish Love Songs):

  • Beer and Nyquil (Hold It Together)
  • Sequels, Remakes, and Adaptations
  • Nuevo
  • Buffalo Buffalo
  • The Boy Considers His Haircut
  • Otis / Carl
  • Funeral (Phoebe Bridgers cover)

And at 54:58, you can hear Dylan’s mom sighing “wow” under her breath as noted in The Boy Considers His Haircut.
