Tim and Ollie return to university memory lane by exploring the story behind The Coral's fifth album "Butterfly House", released in 2010. Known for their quirky sea shanty-inspired hits and initially achieving commercial success by riding the indie rock wave of the 2000s, by the end of the decade the Wirral-based "Cosmic Scouse" rockers were one guitarist short and struggling to chart as high as they used to. In this episode, the hosts look at how the band's response to this was to double-down on their formula by creating a polished and critically well-received psychedelic rock album, albeit marking the point in their career where they become more of a cult act going forwards.
