Many musicians will admit that their second album was harder to create than their debut. So which sophomore albums - the records that help legitimize a band or artist, and proved they weren’t merely a flash in the pan - would we name as the best?   Find out which ones we choose in this episode of Epic Footnote Productions’ “If You Have to Pick 3 … ,” a podcast where we have to pick our top three choices on any given music-related topic.

How can a band or artist in good conscience embark on a multi-year “farewell tour” only to reunite shortly after? Is the money they earn from these tours worth the damage they cause to their credibility? And why do fans enable this behavior and pay a hefty price for the chance to say “goodbye” to their favorite artists (only to spend even more on tickets for the eventual reunion tour)?   That’s what Matt and Zach discuss in the latest episode of “Am I Missing Something?,” a podcast where we analyze popular or unpopular bands, albums, songs or music trends in an attempt to figure out what we seem to be “missing.” The goal isn’t to ridicule, but rather to gain a better understanding of what a majority of fans see or don’t see in something that Matt and Zach simply can’t wrap their heads around.   Want to buy some exclusive Epic Footnote merch, or listen to our episodes on another streaming platform?
