Here at Back Wall Records, we love music. We want to share music that we love and have you share music that you love so we can continue to expand our tastes and get to know as much music as possible. Most episodes will involve our host Alex Gibson diving into the music he loves and discovering new music he's never listened to. One day we'll get some actual musicians on to talk about music too.
Alex is back in February 2026 with one of his favorite albums of 2025: God Save The Gun by Militarie Gun. It's such a great record and it is so good to back. Give this a listen, go listen to the album and let us know what you think.

Mind Expanders - Sufjan Stevens - Illinois
In this episode, Alex launches yet another series. We're calling this one Mind Expanders because we'll be covering all of the artists, albums, songs, genres, etc that expanded our tastes and allowed us to enjoy music of all shapes and sizes. Some albums lie far on the outskirts of punk rock, others are in a completely different universe, but they're all great, and we want to share them with you. The first one Alex is covering is the tribute-to-a-state-album, Illinois, by Sufjan Stevens. Sufjan is an accomplished singer/songwriter, and his compositions are unlike most things that Alex enjoys, and they really opened his musical heart as a young man.
