Scottish Fiction Podcast - 25th September 2013

If you pay attention round these parts you'll be well aware of my gushing blogger love for this week's live guest Lovers Turn To Monsters.  Possessing an ability to pen open, honest and emotionally charged lyrics, twisted in with pop culture, geeky jokes, and personal highs and lows, he is, in this blogger's opinion one of Scotland's under appreciated songwriters.  Coupled with lo-fi melodies and a goofy demeanour, it was a pleasure to welcome Kyle back onto the show.

As well as three live tracks courtesy of my guest, there was new music from Atom Tree, Giant Fang and Hector Bizerk, as well as the second instalment of my Oxjam: We're Skint, They're Skinter podcasts.
