Show Notes Chapter Markers

Steve sings his way through Keith's slide show of his recent camping trip (and drive) to Lassen National Park. Along a meandering drive through the Sierras, they uncover more constituents of The New Dad Rock including Depeche Mode, Bauhaus, Death From Above 1979, Jay-Z, and American Music Club.

As Keith describes the scenic wonder, they reminisce on the halcyon days when every computer had a CD burner and a hard drive full of songs. And the inevitable rise of mash-up albums.

If you choose to embark on this journey, you will here some of the following music:
"18 and Life" by Skid Row
"Flies on the Windscreen" by Depeche Mode
"Double Dare" by Bauhaus
"The Hook" by Stephen Malkmus
"Romantic Rights" by Death From Above 1979
Jay-Z's Black Album and all the mash-ups based off of it (i.e., The Beatles' White Album and Pavement's Slanted and Enchanted
Number of da Boots
an Iron Maiden mash-up album by Celebrity Murder Party
