There are more – and they’re all examples of XTC’s early experiments with dub. In this special two-hour edition of What Do You Call That Noise? The XTC Podcast, we are exploding together as we go on a deep dive into XTC’s fascinating adventures in sound.

 

Sharing their love of dub are Tom Morley, the original drummer of Scritti Politti, stand-up comedian Mark Thomas, and songwriter and broadcaster Paul Myers, plus dedicated XTC fans Jeff Farris and Kevin Chanel.
