Hey, PEL Listeners, go subscribe to Nakedly Examined Music at nakedlyexaminedmusic.com or on iTunes! Craig led Shudder to Think from 1986 to 1998 and has since had a solo career and done soundtrack work. Shudder to Think was a band that started as part of Washington DC's "hardcore" scene, but challenged musical conventions to try to achieve U2-level success with Captain-Beefheart-level weirdness (they failed). We discuss their song "Pebbles" from Get Your Goat (1992), then go post-Shudder to "Show Down" by Craig's short-lived pop-dance band, Craig Wedren & Baby. Then we talk about working on assignment on "I Am the Wolf, You Are the Moon," for Wet, Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp. We also listen to "Heaven Sent" from Crag's album Wand (2011).
