Century Club is your weekly shot of what's new in music. Every week, the Tunes & Tumblers team bring you a mini pairing of a recent release and a craft shooter to keep your quarantine interesting. Make all the shots to enter the esteemed club yourself.

Try not to "shy away" from the "terror of other people" in a post-pandemic world. This week's edition of Century Club sees us toasting to the latest hit single by alt-pop heavyweights Twenty One Pilots, "Shy Away." Like the rest of us, Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun felt scaled back and isolated over the past year, and that manifests in their new sound and the tongue-in-cheek title of their album Scaled and Icy. Tune in to hear how we distill that frosty sensation down into a minty-fresh shot that's infinitely more chuggable than your mouthwash.

Stick around to the second half of the episode to hear what happens when Mercury retrograde rears its ugly head. After a stellar interview with up-and-coming indie rock pair Pacer, the technology gods sought to wipe it from all existence, so we tempted fate and conducted the same interview AGAIN to what we consider the best do-over of all time. The guys even saw to bless us with an exclusive performance of their song "Waiting for the Punch," a choice cut off of their new EP The Terror of Other People. Don't miss any of the insanity, fam. Cheers!
