Steve sits in for Huw and chats with Kate Nash about the new ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Sounds podcast The Rise and Fall of Indie Sleaze

Noughties UK indie music was iconic, fashionable and thrilling. These days the kids call it 'Indie Sleaze', although at the time there was no cohesive name for the collection of bands - from Franz Ferdinand to The Libertines, The Long Blondes to The Cribs, Bloc Party to Razorlight, Arctic Monkeys to The Kooks - that erupted from all corners of Britain. These young artists exploded with attitude, tunes, vitality, and misconduct, creating an army of costumed disciples.

The Podcast is the story of the UK’s most influential musicians of this millennia, and the wild culture that surrounded them
