New music including Esper Star, Love Object, Stella Donnelly and Desire on this week’s West Of The Fields podcast

I continued exploring recent releases from Metric, Beabadoobee, Interpol and Superorganism on the show this week, while the retro alternative set featured a block of late ’70s singer-songwriter power-pop type tunes, in honor of Pitchfork’s Sunday Review of Graham Parker’s underrated 1979 classic, “Squeezing Out Sparks.” Here’s the tracklist for the show, which is Part 2 of a program that was split up over two days due to a scheduling conflict.
