Show Notes

[Softswitch](http://softswitch.bandcamp.com/) is a Winnipeg post-punk band with a new tape – mixed by the legendary Steve Albini – about to be released Nov. 30. We talk about their experience working with Albini, the role of the synthesizer in their sound, defining post-punk, being in their 30s playing in a music scene that skews young, and much more.
