Dan Kelly’s ‘Drowning in the Fountain of Youth’ is an influential modern Aussie classic and Pete from Hey Geronimo is here to prove it! Frontman of Brisbane power-pop rockers Hey Geronimo (whose debut album Crashing into the Sun is out now!) Pete Kilroy joins me to make the case for Dan Kelly and the Alpha Males weird, laconic and infections LP on the tenth anniversary of its release.  How does Dan write songs about subjects no one else would think to touch, like using Grand Theft Auto to get over a breakup? How does he compromise his commercial prospects to make his music more interesting? What is the unprintable anthemic chorus of the album’s best known song ‘Drunk on Election Night’? How has his music influenced artists like Courtney Barnett? What bloody genre is this album in anyway? PLUS Pete makes a point about art and commerce that I think is total bullshit and we fight about it. My Favorite Album is a podcast unpacking the great works of pop music.
