On this episode we speak with our Producer of the Year - though recently he could have been the producer of almost every Year - Jack Antonoff. He discusses being behind the boards for Sabrina Carpenter’s breakout album Short ’n Sweet, how to treat a voice as perfect as Taylor Swift’s, and what his trademark tape effects add to songs.

Welcome back to Consequence's Annual Report, celebrating the best music and entertainment 2024 had to offer on the Consequence UNCUT: Annual Report podcast exclusively on Amazon Music!

On this episode, we present our Composers of the Year - Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross. Reznor and Ross previously received this accolade in 2020, but, in the years that have followed, their soundtrack work for film and television has only gotten more exciting. In 2024, they delivered two stunning scores for the movies Queer and Challengers, while also contributing music to The Bear and The Franchise. In this in-depth conversation with Senior Entertainment Editor Liz Shannon Miller, Reznor and Ross explore the challenges they faced with this year's projects — and how the line between their composing work and Nine Inch Nails might get blurry in the future. In addition, please also enjoy Liz's interview with producer Boys Noize, who took Reznor and Ross's score for Challengers and transformed it into one of the year's most addictive albums.

Welcome back to Consequence's Annual Report, celebrating the best music and entertainment 2024 had to offer on the Consequence UNCUT: Annual Report podcast exclusively on Amazon Music!

In this episode, we present our film performer of the year, Timothée Chalamet. In this interview with Senior Entertainment Editor Liz Shannon Miller, the Dune and Wonka star talks about taking on one of the most challenging roles of his career for A Complete Unknown, which required him to learn the guitar and sing like Bob Dylan — and more importantly, figure out how to embody one of music's most mysterious icons. As a bonus, we're also happy to share Liz's conversation with Chalamet's co-star Edward Norton, who reflected not just on working with Chalamet, but the unknowability of someone like Dylan, and why that made A Complete Unknown the perfect title for the film.

Morning View by Incubus is a classic. With the band shifting from nu metal to a more alternative rock style, the album spawned hit singes like "Wish You Were Here," "Drive," and "Warning." In 2021, the band celebrated the album's 20th anniversary with a livestreamed full-album performance at the Malibu location where the LP was originally recorded. The celebration continues this year with the release of a freshly re-recorded version of the LP dubbed Morning View XXIII (out May 10th) and an upcoming summer that will see Incubus playing the album in full alongside other classics (get tickets here).

For our latest episode of Consequence UNCUT, Brandon Boyd chats with Associate Editor Paolo Ragusa about where Incubus was during the original Morning View era, revisiting it for XXIII, and how they have grown into seasoned and settled performers.

P-Nut, the bass player for 311, joins hosts Adam Carnes and Adam Davis to talk about how 311’s journey overlapped with the rise of ska in the 90s, and how the group existed in a space adjacent to the music.

Today on Consequence of Sound, we are sharing an episode from The Spark Parade.

The Aces' front woman Cristal Ramirez was obsessed with Paramore's Riot! from the moment it was first played for her. The energy and lyrics both blew her pre-teen mind, but it was Hayley Williams who really caught her attention. A flame-haired teenager who lead a successful rock band in a male-dominated industry, Williams provided endless inspiration for Ramirez as her own musical aspirations took flight. As a dedicated Paramore fan, she's always seen the band as a beacon of light and a force for good in the world.

Today on Consequence of Sound, we are sharing an episode fromThe Story Behind The Song.

One of the most renowned American indie rock bands, The Shins have carved a lasting legacy with their distinctive blend of folk, pop, and indie rock. Formed in 1996 by frontman James Mercer, a chance inclusion of “New Slang” in the indie movie classic Garden State helped to take their indie buzz mainstream just as their breakout sophomore album, Chutes Too Narrow, propelled them to indie stardom.

On this episode of The Story Behind the Song, Peter Csathy speaks with The Shins’ James Mercer just after the passing of former The Shins’ bassist Neal Langford to discuss how Neal helped push him to perform, the conception of “New Slang” and also the more recent “Phantom Limb.”
